[Bug 1637024] Re: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login
The upstream comments suggest that this is likely fixed in 0.6.6 [1]. This seems like an obvious fix, but I don't know how to reproduce the existing problem. This change is a general fix to handle invalid YAML files, with a likely cause being using a captive portal (so it returns an HTML page instead of a YAML file). I'd prefer to try this patch first rather than do a full update to the latest.

[Bug 1637024] Re: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login
Robert, do you reckon you could look at this? If it's possible (e.g. with build-dep versions) and acceptable to the SRU team then I would be quite happy with moving to 0.6.8 in yakkety as there are loads of random fixes - it's quite a fast moving project. The problem is that there are new features too and not all the fixes come with LP bug reports of course. But see linked bug report on github - it's a fair point that providing QA on random release + patches is not that fun a task for an upstream to do. ** Changed in: appstream-glib (Ubuntu) Assignee: Canonical Desktop Team (canonical-desktop-team) => Robert Ancell (robert-ancell) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1637024 Title: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream-glib/+bug/1637024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm seeing the same behavior after a reboot.

This was confirmed upstream to be caused by a problem in appstream-glib. 16.10 will need to either move to 0.6.4 or backport a handful of patches. https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/70 ** Changed in: fwupd (Ubuntu) Status: New => Invalid -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1637024 Title: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream-glib/+bug/1637024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1637024] Re: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login
Hello, Although it's possible it's a relapse/regression, the more likely situation is another corner case that causes similar symptoms. The mention in kern.log about failing to coldplug UEFI isn't the cause of this, that's expected if your manufacturer doesn't support UEFI capsule updates. A similar bug with Ubuntu 16.10 was just reported upstream here: https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/70 It has not yet been debugged. If you are technical enough, can you please follow the same steps mentioned in that bug? https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/70#issuecomment-254816591 That combination of artifacts and steps should hopefully help to narrow down what's going on. Also, please immediately back up the contents of /var/lib/app-info/yaml (and make sure you follow symlinks) as if it's caused by transient metadata in that directory it may clear up on it's own the next day and be hard to reproduce. ** Bug watch added: github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues #70 https://github.com/hughsie/fwupd/issues/70 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1637024 Title: fwupd consuming very high cpu after startup/login To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/appstream-glib/+bug/1637024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
