[Touch-packages] [Bug 1833322] Re: Please consider no more having irqbalance enabled by default (per image/use-case/TBD)
Just for perspective on this, I've used Linux since about 1993 (originally Slackware, then Gentoo, then Ubuntu) and recall manually adding irqtune to my system in the distant past. When irqtune was originally developed, it was common to run XT-PIC, all interrupts were went to CPU 0, period. When one turned on IO-APIC back then, interrupts still went to CPU 0 by default but could be rerouted. This was largely to be able to hit gigabit+ speeds on systems of the time. Now? CPUs are faster, memory is faster, and the interrupt handlers are much more efficient than in the kernel of, say, 15 or 20 years ago. If you disable irqtune, you can observe in /proc/interrupts that various device interrupts are still sent to CPUs other than CPU0, they just don't go ping-ponging around between all of them like they do with irqtune. A big difference compared to the early days, for example for ethernet a lot of the work that was done in the interrupt handler back then, the interrupt handler now does the bare minimum and does the rest of the work with a kernel thread (same for wifi, which tends to be a bit of an interrupt and CPU hog). Meaning the actual interrupts take much less time to run now than they did then. The total CPU time could still add up to more than 1 core can handle if you had, say, 10gbps ethernet (or 1gbps ethernet or wifi on a slower CPU). But the kernel threads can be scheduled to any CPU core just like any other thread even if the interrupts are tied to one CPU.. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to ubuntu-meta in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1833322 Title: Please consider no more having irqbalance enabled by default (per image/use-case/TBD) Status in Ubuntu on IBM z Systems: Confirmed Status in irqbalance package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in ubuntu-meta package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: as per https://github.com/pop-os/default-settings/issues/60 Distribution (run cat /etc/os-release): $ cat /etc/os-release NAME="Pop!_OS" VERSION="19.04" ID=ubuntu ID_LIKE=debian PRETTY_NAME="Pop!_OS 19.04" VERSION_ID="19.04" HOME_URL="https://system76.com/pop; SUPPORT_URL="http://support.system76.com; BUG_REPORT_URL="https://github.com/pop-os/pop/issues; PRIVACY_POLICY_URL="https://system76.com/privacy; VERSION_CODENAME=disco UBUNTU_CODENAME=disco Related Application and/or Package Version (run apt policy $PACKAGE NAME): $ apt policy irqbalance irqbalance: Installed: 1.5.0-3ubuntu1 Candidate: 1.5.0-3ubuntu1 Version table: *** 1.5.0-3ubuntu1 500 500 http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu disco/main amd64 Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status $ apt rdepends irqbalance irqbalance Reverse Depends: Recommends: ubuntu-standard gce-compute-image-packages Issue/Bug Description: as per konkor/cpufreq#48 and http://konkor.github.io/cpufreq/faq/#irqbalance-detected irqbalance is technically not needed on desktop systems (supposedly it is mainly for servers), and may actually reduce performance and power savings.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 2042975] [NEW] Kisak-mesa fresh mpv crash
Public bug reported: PPA affected is https://launchpad.net/~kisak/+archive/ubuntu/kisak-mesa I'll comment up top there's a patch to fix this issue, and a viable workaround. I decided to file a bug report primarily so if anyone else comes across this issue they can see the workaround. It's highly likely Kisak doesn't have to do anything about this, that 23.2.2 will ship with this fixed. Running Mesa 23.2.1, mpv seg faults. "Videos" video player doesn't crash but doesn't play video either. As a workaround I went to .config/mpv/mpv.conf and put in "vo=xv". (I'm not sure what the equivalent is if you're running Wayland.) I found a bug report of this issue: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/mesa/mesa/-/issues/9922 It seems there were some changes made to AMD radeon driver, and both radeon and Intel driver now have a few functions with the same names! The link above has a backported patch from 24.0 development branch. I assume 23.2.2 will most likely have a fix incorporated.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1643239] Re: Xorg crash on compiz login, with Intel 945
No problem! I don't still have the D620 (or run 16.04 on anything...). Side note, Intel GPU drivers sure have come along way since then! Back in the day, the Intel driver OpenGL was somewhat questionable, it worked or it didn't with various games and 3D-using stuff see this very bug report. Now I can generally run anything even under wine and proton up to the limits of the hardware. I.e. you won't be running dx12 games on a 10 year old Intel GPU but it'll do dx11...whether it'll do it fast enough is another matter but better drivers can't do anything for the GPU being too slow. Well apparently they can to some extent -- the cherry on the cake, my friend's (almost as old as the D620) Sandy Bridge system got about a 40-50% FPS improvement with some Mesa/Intel stack changes in 2020 or so (and has kept that extra speed in 22.04) and I saw 30%+ speedups on a few other Intel GPU systems I had around that time. (This was not a matter of Intel GPU drivers being slow before; on the contrary, running some games on Intel GPU head-to-head between Windows and Linux with wine or proton shows higher framerates in Linux virtually across the board.) Great job Xorg, Mesa, and Intel driver devs! --Henry -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643239 Title: Xorg crash on compiz login, with Intel 945 Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: I went to install Ubuntu (via systemback) onto some Dell D620s, and found "Gnome Flashback (compiz)" crashes back to login prompt, while "Gnome Flashback (Metacity)" does not. The attached logs reflect booting up, (attempting to) log in with Flashback (compiz) then logging in with Flashback (Metacity) to file a bug report. This may be chipset-specific, as I have several other rather antiquated systems: Intel 865-based (Compaq DC5000): Works. (Using LLVMPipe -- this chip is missing a few OpenGL features compiz requires.) Intel 915-based (Dell Inspiron 2200): Works. Intel 945-based (Dell Latitude D620): Crashes to login prompt (this is the machine in this bug report.) Intel 965-based (Dell Latitude 755?): Works. Intel G35-based (slightly newer Dell Latitude 755): Works. I can rule out software differences; since I knew Compiz worked on a 915, I assumed I'd screwed up my systemback LiveUSB somehow, and test- ran it on the D620, 2200, and one of the 755s, and it worked on the 2200 and 755. Left up to me, I'd categorize this as severity "low", I'm just setting these to Flashback Metacity and then stability seems fine.

Public bug reported: I'll start out with saying, this bug is probably priority "invalid" due to my non-stock configuration (this 18.04.1 install is on an Acer Chromebook 13, so it has a held back kernel and Xorg for the lovely nvidia drivers it came with.) But I figure I'll file anyway since the problem is rather serious if it arises on your particular system, and the workaround/fix is easy once you figure out what the heck is happening. So, snapd has errored out since I updated to 18.04 due to my held back kernel (snap packages are using xz compression, and this kernel has no xz support...) I found within the last day or so that my machine would not boot to graphical environment, just to text login with no networking up and several missing services (ntp and a few others.) journalctl -xe showed failures due to "file not found" on files like tr, cut, modprobe, cat, that should definitely be found. PATH problems! Ultimately, I found /usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/snapd-env-generator (which appears -- not sure since it's a binary instead of a shell script -- to be intended to just add "/snap/bin" to the PATH.)I moved this out of the folder, on reboot everything worked fine. Then I went ahead and uninstalled snapd. I suspect systemd is "too smart for it's own good", and instead of providing it's own environment variables then letting items in /usr/lib/systemd/system-environment-generators/ modify the environment (as docs say), instead systemd either decided "snapd-env-generator" is setting a PATH so systemd doesn't have to (resulting in PATH of ":/snap/bin") or systemd "rolled back" that PATH when snapd service failed, resetting PATH to empty instead of the default PATH value. ** Affects: systemd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to systemd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1792644 Title: If snapd is not working it can take down systemd Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I'll start out with saying, this bug is probably priority "invalid" due to my non-stock configuration (this 18.04.1 install is on an Acer Chromebook 13, so it has a held back kernel and Xorg for the lovely nvidia drivers it came with.)

I booted up a D620, and verified Flashback (Compiz) failed. I logged in with Flashback (Metacity), went to Display control panel, hit Apply, and logged back out. I could then log into Flashback (Compiz) fine, it loaded quickly and everything worked fine. The display setting "stuck" fine so everything worked after a reboot as well. I guess you can close this bug! Maybe the info will remain useful for someone who runs into a similar issue.

[Touch-packages] [Bug 1643239] Re: Xorg crash on compiz login, with Intel 945
I haven't verified this yet, but it looks from the XOrg log like these systems are booting into dual head (with the SVideo out on head 2), 2128x800 total. That width over 2048 is probably what's causing the problem. I did "lose the mouse" on one, and suspected a "phantom head." I went to System Settings -> Display, it didn't show a second head but the whole desktop flickered (I suspect it turned the superfluos head off then.) I suspect it stored this in .config/monitors.xml, I'll check tomorrow if it'll now log into compiz, and if it's got some hotkey that may toggle that on and off. I guess if that works out, then there's no real X bug; perhaps compiz should fall back to llvmpipe if it sees an an otherwise-working opengl implementation, but asks for a large texture and has it fail. Kudos to the compiz, Xorg, and llvmpipe developers btw... the CPU and RAM use were already decent in 14.04 but much lower now, and llvmpipe's actually reasonably fast too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to xorg in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643239 Title: Xorg crash on compiz login, with Intel 945 Status in xorg package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I went to install Ubuntu (via systemback) onto some Dell D620s, and found "Gnome Flashback (compiz)" crashes back to login prompt, while "Gnome Flashback (Metacity)" does not.
