[Bug 1643345] Re: nvidia-367 367.57-0ubuntu0.16.04.1: nvidia-367 kernel module failed to build [Makefile:81: recipe for target 'modules' failed]

2017-04-09 Thread BatteryKing
I did some poking around to see if I could figure out the root cause.  I
found there are a whole lot of differences between doing a fresh install
of 16.04 and upgrading from 14.04 to 16.04 in terms of how the system is
actually setup, so a quick let's try to find the one thing off was not
going to fly.  Another wall of sorts I hit is the Nvidia installer is a
compiled application and I did not want to take the time to reverse
engineer it in order to make sure I could replicate what it was doing
step by step in order to figure out the exact step it fails on.  A
thought I had is I could try to figure out the DKMS calls setup to
automatically re-compile the kernel module, but by this time I was
feeling pretty fed up, so I just re-installed my laptop.  With a fresh
install of 16.04, the Nvidia drivers both compiled and work without
issue as far as I can tell.  I tried installing and opening Google Earth
and glxgears and those seem to be working fine.

Another thing that broke in the 'upgrade' to 16.04 was Bluetooth
support.  Bluetooth seems to work now that the system is re-installed
from scratch.

A baseline test I did was to update both a VM with a fresh install of
Ubuntu 16.04 and my laptop where I upgraded from 14.04 to 16.04.  With
both systems up to date (March 25th, 2017) I tried to install the the
latest Nvidia 375 drivers.  It installed on the VM (though it is kind of
worthless here), but hung up on my laptop just like it has in the past.
With it both compiling and failing to compile on the same version and
patch level of Ubuntu, just different paths to get to this point, I
would think this points to an issue with Ubuntu, not Nvidia.

2016-11-30 Thread BatteryKing
Scott, I tried the same things and got more or less the same result.
The older drivers compile, but the machine crashes early in boot.  If I
remember correctly, this was the case all the way up to 364.  Anything
above, and I tried all the way up to 375, and it won't compile.  I
suspect the older drivers crash the system on boot because of the newer
kernel on 16.04, which is 4.4 series while nvidia drivers version 364
lists kernel 4.1 and below in its support list.  It is a good question
why one compiles and another does not.  This is one of the reasons why I
circle around the notion that something did not get properly updated in
the upgrade process build environment wise as it seems the pieces are
there for an older driver to compile, but not for the newer one.

2016-11-22 Thread BatteryKing
I spent some time going through posts and trying various things.  The
best I can reckon from all information gathered so far is something
about the upgrade process from 14.04 to 16.04 trips things up for the
Nvidia driver build.  If Ubuntu 16.04 is installed from scratch, people
report it works, but the part of it not working during / after an
upgrade from a previous Ubuntu release is consistent.  The thing is I
have a system that has so much going on on it that starting over would
be a huge time kill, so solving this would probably take less time even
if it is a bit involved to figure out.  Also if it is working on some
installations and not others depending on how Ubuntu was installed, that
points to a possible issue on the open source side tripping up things on
the Nvidia side of the fence.  (The notion here clean install of open
source 16.04 equals proper environment for Nvidia driver to build while
something off kilter about the Ubuntu upgrade process equals broken
environment for the Nvidia driver to try to build in.  Of course I also
would not discount the notion that everything from each team runs to
their internally defined spec, but two teams had two different ideas on
the details of what is a valid thing to do / expect from the other.)

[Bug 1559741] Re: wide-dhcpv6 client apparently sets incorrect PD specfic vltime

2016-06-01 Thread BatteryKing
[solved] I seem to have found and fixed the problem and so have some
confirmation I was on the right track in my previous post.  Specifically
in file common.c line 3328 I changed:

if (ioctl(s, ioctl_cmd, )) {
debug_printf(LOG_NOTICE, FNAME, "failed to %s an address on %s: %s",
cmdstr, ifname, strerror(errno));
close(s);
return (-1);
}

to:
if (ioctl(s, ioctl_cmd, )) {
if ((strcmp("add",cmdstr) !=0) || (strcmp("File 
exists",strerror(errno)) != 0)) { //Ignore if trying to add existing address
debug_printf(LOG_NOTICE, FNAME, "failed to %s an address on %s: %s",
cmdstr, ifname, strerror(errno));
close(s);
return (-1);
}   
}


I have gone over 36 hours now and have 3 renew operations in the logs and they 
all look identical where before it was obviously not going well once I released 
what I needed to look for.  Also my internal subnets are still routing.  I 
figured 3 seemingly perfect renew cycles is enough to declare success in 
solving this problem.

[Bug 1559741] Re: wide-dhcpv6 client apparently sets incorrect PD specfic vltime

2016-05-30 Thread BatteryKing
I made some headway in figuring this out.  One thing I did not
understand was T1 and T2 time and so was looking at the logs at the
vltime hour mark.  The proper place to be looking for the first error
was at the T1 mark when the renew operation takes place.  At this point
the following happens in the logs:

A Date XX:XX:XX machine_name dhcp6c[31722]: update_address: update an address 
::::::: pltime=86400, vltime=86400
A Date XX:XX:XX machine_name dhcp6c[31722]: ifaddrconf: failed to add an 
address on WAN_interface: File exists
A Date XX:XX:XX machine_name dhcp6c[31722]: update_ia: failed to update an 
address :::::::
A Date XX:XX:XX machine_name dhcp6c[31722]: dhcp6_remove_event: removing an 
event on WAN_interface, state=RENEW

I went through the source code to try to trace this out and I came up with the 
system call to change the IP address fails and this causes the code to update 
the refresh timer to not execute as it executes after this call except in the 
case where the former operation fails, then it gets skipped.  Once vltime for 
the WAN interface is reached the WAN interface expires and requests a new 
address, but the internal interfaces don't request such an update.  I believe 
it is at this point of the WAN interface expiring and re-initing where Cox's 
server drops the route for the internal subnets.  Specifically:
1. In dhcp6c_ia.c line 166 - Calls update_address()
2. In addrconf.c line 177 - Call to na_ifaddrconf() is made.  This fails and 
returns before executing timer code below.
3. In addrconf.c line 396 - ifaddrconf() is made.
4. In common.c line 3398 - System call is made to add /128 IP address issued by 
DHCPv6 server and fails because the address has not expired yet.  At least if I 
understand correctly.

I noticed going through the avahi docs that this is used by Apple
apparently.  Also Cox says there is a compatibility issue with the Apple
Airport Extreme and IPv6 failing after a day with the resolution being
restart the device.  My issue is the IPv6 update for the subnet fails
after 24 hours or so, so sounds to be about the same symptoms.  Can
these two be related?

Got distracted for a bit, but finally got some testing done.  It looks
like I was only partially right in that the display formatter was wrong,
so now I am seeing the correct time displayed.  There is still something
going wrong with the dhcpv6 subnet update.  Will have to spend more time
to properly understand this problem.

[Bug 1559741] Re: wide-dhcpv6 client apparently sets incorrect PD specfic vltime

2016-03-27 Thread BatteryKing
I have found evidence that the wide-dhcpv6 version in Ubuntu 14.04 at least was 
written on a 32-bit architecture and never properly redesigned for a 64-bit 
compilation.  The evidence for this found in the source code goes as follows:
1. Consistent use of the printf formatter %ul for 32-bit int fields.  On a 
32-bit architecture this is fine, but on a 64-bit compile with gcc unsigned 
long (ul) is 64-bits.  This explains why the debug print statement grabs extra 
bytes.  It also hints at another problem in that while the printf code is 
consistently wrong for a 64-bit compile, only the PD specific vltime picks up 
extra non-zero bytes beyond the 32-bit boundary.  As best as I can tell this is 
due to compiler specific circumstance.

2. As above is a display issue with debugging messages, if you consider
there are problems consistent with 32-bit only testing, it seems logical
to assume somewhere those extra bytes beyond the 32-bit vltime gets
assigned to the timer in an unsafe manner.  I think I may have found
this in that in prefixconf.c there is an assignment of vltime to tv_sec,
which on a 64-bit compile would be assigning a 32-bit unsigned int to a
64-bit integer without a cast.  As I normally due a cast for such
conversions, I am suspecting without a cast the random bytes beyond the
32-bit boundary are getting sucked in on this particular assignment.
For the NA specific vltime value the bytes just happen to be all zero,
so no noticed issue, but as the incorrectly implemented printf statement
shows, the bytes beyond the 32-bit boundary for the PD specific vltime
are not zero and so a tv_sec value for the refresh timer gets set to
something ridiculously high.  The logs show that the NA specific address
gets refreshed at the prescribed time while the PD specific address
range does not, so everything matches up for this hypothesis.

Now I just need to make some changes and test it all out...

No.  As I am understanding the linked documentation, if you are setting
up a wide-dhcpv6 server, this can be specified.  However seeing I am not
an ISP, but instead a customer, I am relegated to being a client and
specifying these parameters do not seem to be an option for the client.
Especially with IPv6 my understanding is you need the ISP to assign you
Internet valid subnets (and parameters of operation) to use for your
internal network in order for things to work, so there is two layers to
client: one kind of serverish as it delegates subnets to your subnets,
but is a client to the ISP IPv6 DHCP server.  The second is a pure
client for internal nodes to configure themselves.

[Bug 1559741] [NEW] wide-dhcpv6 client apparently sets incorrect PD specfic vltime

2016-03-20 Thread BatteryKing
Public bug reported:

This is on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64-bit with the last update done on
03/09/2016.

I setup wide-dhcpv6 client on my home network to grab IPv6 addresses
from my ISP.  The /128 address for my firewall is fine and after 24
hours I see in the logs the address just for this external interface
being renewed, but the /60 based address block I request for a few
internal subnets for my home network do not renew and after 24 hours the
ISP stops routing to them.  I did a Wireshark capture and all looked
well, in particular the IA_PD vltime value looks correct, specifically
0x00015180.  However when I run the wide-dhcpv6 client with the -D debug
option, I see an incorrect value, specifically 0x7FFF00015180, which is
48-bits long while the hex dumped field in Wireshark is only 32-bits
long.  These extra bytes don't belong and are not part of the reply from
my ISP's server.  Ergo, this must be a fault on the wide-dhcpv6 client
side.
