[Bug 290498] Re: linux-rt restricted to one CPU

2009-10-16 Thread pablomme
This bug appears to be solved in Karmic. As far as I can tell the
current Karmic RT kernel (2.6.31-9-rt) does not have the SMP issue that
Intrepid's and Jaunty's had.

If I had to guess, I would say this is because the kernel version
matches the upstream RT patch version this time around, which hadn't
happened since Hardy. In my opinion, the RT patch is highly non-trivial
to port across kernel versions, and the Ubuntu linux-rt maintainers
should stick to shipping the latest kernel version for which an RT patch
was published, even if it doesn't match that of the generic kernel,
because chances are that users will lose more from the RT kernel being
broken than they would gain from having a newer kernel. Or to ship both.

[Bug 290498] Re: linux-rt restricted to one CPU

2009-10-12 Thread Javier Garcia
Realtime Dutchman's instructions for compiling a kernel are excellent.
This was my first time compiling a kernel and I was able to do so with
no problems compiling or installing.  I have an AMD Athlon64 X2 5600+
(i.e. dual-core).

When I compiled the exact generic kernel and patch recommended by
Realtime Dutchman (linux-source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062905_all.deb and
patch-2.6.29.5-rt21.bz2), it seems to have resolved everything.  No
system issues, no xruns on jackd and the load on the CPUs looks normal:

Cpu0  :  0.3%us,  0.3%sy,  0.0%ni, 99.3%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st
Cpu1  :  1.0%us,  0.7%sy,  0.0%ni, 98.3%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st

NB:  When I compiled and installed what I believe to be the most recent
generic kernel code and rt patch as of this writing (i.e. linux-
source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062906_all.deb and patch-2.6.29.6-rt23.bz2), I
experienced intermittent issues with my USB keyboard's keys getting
'sticky' (i.e. single keystroke results in multiple characters) and what
looked like a video card issue when the machine booted up (just once).
Not sure if this is related, but my machine has an NVidia video card
(GeForce 7100 GS).

Thank you Realtime Dutchman,

following your instructions I successfully compile and run a 2.6.29.6 realtime 
kernel under cruchbang 9.04.
It works nicely with jack and vmware workstation.

In theory a generic 2.6 kernel should handle HZ  100 using special
config in /etc/security/limits.conf:

@audio - rtprio 99
@audio -memlock  unlimited

and so handles jack realtime option, but I find that the 2.6.29.6
realtime kernel works much better with vmware workstation: with the
generic kernel I had some hangs/sluggish in the Windows XP guest due to
/etc/rtc I suppose.

If someone need some kind of help write me at covorecatgmail.com

happy gnu to everybody!

2009-06-26 Thread Realtime Dutchman
Cecil,

Many thanks for your help concerning the nvidia driver issue.

For anyone who is interested in the kernel building tutorial please find
the tutorial  text below. This is the tutorial written  by me and has
been tested by others and is a pretty much cut and paste method.

%%%
%%%

Kernel building tutorial for Ubuntu Studio 9.04 build  
2.6.29.5-rt21-all-nvk-062109-1
Source code based on Ubuntu Studio Generic with RT patch from  kernel.org.


__


1. Introduction.

This tutorial describes in nine steps how to get kernel sources and how to 
compile, build and install a new real time kernel for Ubuntu Jaunty 9.04.
The procedure as desribed below has been tested by the author but gives no 
guarantee for other pc hardware/software setups, but feel free to try 
the kernel building steps at your own risk.

This tutorial desribes how to obtain, patch and compile Ubuntu Studio generic 
kernel. 
Real time patch wil be obtained from kernel.org.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
Before you start using the tutorial you should take notice of the following 
issue concerning nvidia proprietary drivers.
Users who are using nvidia proprietary drivers should take care because these 
drivers could lead to building errors.
I would like to refer to the comments made by Cecil on web page:  
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-rt/+bug/290498/ 

She has made the following comment:

$$$
Using RTD's tutorial I was able to build 2.6.29.5-rt21 for my 9.04 system. (AMD 
64 bit).

I had one problem and it's doozy. It died in the very last step of the build 
because I had the nvidia drivers (non free). The kernel would boot and run 
(but a few things didn't work). 
It took a lot of hacking around to get rid of *all* of the nvidia artifacts so 
that syslog/messages/X.log didn't have errors.

My advice is that if you have propriety drivers and you want to build a custom 
kernel, that you remove all the proprietary drivers before building the kernel. 
Then you can figure out how to get the proprietary drivers re-installed. 
Actually, my first thought would be to not build a custom kernel if you have 
proprietary drivers but if you do, you better know your dpkg and looking 
at the log files in recovery mode.
$$$



2. Installing tools:

## Become root:

sudo -s

## For building the new kernel you need to install development tools
first.

apt-get install kernel-package ncurses-dev fakeroot bzip2 wget



3. Obtain and install generic kernel sources.


## Obtain the latest Ubuntu Studio generic kernel source for which a real-time 
patch is available at kernel.org:

Go to web site:

http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=M;O=D

download   linux-source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062905_all.deb (this was
the kernel source available at the time of writing this tutorial)


Then go to web site 

http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/

download   patch-2.6.29.5-rt21.bz2



Both files should now be in your desktop  directory.




## Install generic kernel

Double click the obtained   linux-source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062905_all.deb
from your desktop location.

The system will now install the sources.
After installation the packed source file   linux-source-2.6.29.tar.bz2   can 
be found in /usr/src.


## Store the sources in your home directory:


cd /home/user(user is your own home directory)


## Create a kernel directory in /home/user

mkdir kernel


## go to the kernel directory:

cd kernel


## Copy source file and patch file to  /home/user/kernel/

cp /home/user/desktop/patch-2.6.29.5-rt21.bz2  
/home/user/kernel/patch-2.6.29.5-rt21.bz2
cp /usr/src/linux-source-2.6.29.tar.bz2  
/home/user/kernel/linux-source-2.6.29.tar.bz2


## Check if both files are really there by typing :

dir


4. Unpack sources.

## unpack the kernel sources:

tar -xjvf linux-source-2.6.29.tar.bz2

Tar will unpack all files and create a  linux-source-2.6.29  directory
in  /home/user/kernel


5. Patch kernel source for real time use.

## Go to the kernel root directory:

cd ~/kernel/linux-source-2.6.29


## Patch the kernel:


bzcat ../patch-2.6.29.5-rt21.bz2 |patch -p1


##  Go back to the kernel directory:

cd ..


6. Copy the patched kernel sources to  the /usr/src/  work space and
create symbolic link:


## Copy the unpacked linux directory to

hey everyone,

i have installed the kernel realtime dutchman has provided the link to, 
and it solved alll of my issues.. mainly the fact that my cpu's weren't being 
handled properly and
i had the IOWAIT issue that was sucking up my cpu. thank you so much! i am 
running a fairly custom
setup not using ubuntu studio and i was having a hell of a time, getting past 
my problems.
i haven't really put it under rigorous testing yet., but already a huge, very 
noticable difference..

But!!

i still have one minor issue i am running a dell inspiron 6400, which uses 
a proprietary wireless driver,
i haven't been able to get it working, which is a pain as i will need internet 
at some point of another in that kernel. any advice or help would be greatly 
appreciated, even just push me in the right direction!

thanx again, and cheers! :)

Have you got a amd64 build for the rt-kernel, or could you give me instructions 
how to do it ?

I've build an rt-kernel in the last couple of weeks following the advice
from vivichrists post https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-
rt/+bug/290498/comments/26 and the Master Kernel Thread
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=311158.

Somehow I end up with a huge kernel image (200+ mb) and pulseaudio
becomes very  unstable (unusable) and flash (youtube etc) becomes
unusable because of the pulseaudio thing.

Finally I could update my old intrepid with hardy kernel to jaunty using

And after cheating the NVIDIA Installer by copying your headers into the

2009-05-30 Thread Stephen Parry
Hi,
Here are my experiences of using Realtime Dutchman's 25th May build for about 
36 hours:
Firstly, I am running with a different installation order from RTD:
1. Install 9.04 studio (all multimedia options) - reboot
2. Install all updates - reboot
3. Add workaround for clash involving snd-hda-intel driver and my system (see 
below) - reboot
4. Install headers
5. Install image - reboot.
6. Enable memlock 50% nice -99 via @ - System - Administration - Ubuntu 
Studio Controls - Reboot

My acpi works infinitely better with kernel than it did without!

I have not dared enable wireless yet in any shape or form because the
iwl3945 driver seems yet again to be very broken. I will try this later.

So far, my system:
- Boots
- Reboots
- Shuts down
- ~0% idle CPU
- realtime Jack
- captures and plays back audio (jack, audacious, audacity, ZynAddSubFx)
- suspends, resumes and hibernates (caveat -  some processes exit)

* IT DOES THESE RELIABLY *

This is 100% improvement on the stock studio realtime kernel.

My snd-hda-intel needs a tweak to alsa-base.conf and the volume controls, but 
this is nothing to do with this realtime kernel; it's been a problem with my 
system at least as far back as hardy:
options snd-hda-intel model=dell-m27 enable_msi=0 probe_mask=1
Unmute the capture channel in the standard volume control / alsa mixer.
For those interested, without this JACKD watchdog timeouts trying to open the 
capture channel.

My system is as follows:
Dell Inspiron 9400 / E1705, 1GB memory, Core Duo 1.8GHz, Intel 945GM graphics, 
SigmaTel HDA, Intel 3945ABG wireless.

2009-05-29 Thread Realtime Dutchman

I have been testing a couple of nights and it happened everytime I had done a 
Jaunty update.  I could pretty well be a motherboard related issue because my 
suspicion was pointing to the acpid tools. so what I did is :

1. install 9.04
2. install wicd wireless network tool  (skip this when you don´t need it) 
+reboot
3. removal of acpid and dependencies +reboot
4. jaunty update + reboot
5. install of both new ubuntu based RT kernel + reboot:

Files for everyone to use (at own risk) can be found at:

   https://www.yousendit.com/download/MnFqYURNTkw5bEJMWEE9PQ

5. changed audio settings

sudo gedit /etc/security/limits.conf

at the end of file:

@audio - rtprio  99
@audio - memlock  unlimted
@audio - nice  -19

And voila no problem anymore, a perfected running pc.

I did a reboot almost after every installation action because I wanted
to know if the sound modules were still in working condition after I had
done the installs.

Again the not shutting down issue and sound getting killed could have
been a local issue with my pc, but at least what I can do is share this
information with you.

2009-05-27 Thread Realtime Dutchman
Vivichrist,

The last couple of nights I have been trying to reproduce an Ubuntu Studio 9.04 
system with our new RT kernels but I'm dealing with an inconsistent clean 
jaunty install. 
The problems I'm having is that sometimes Jaunty does not want to shutdown and 
after that my sound gets killed. At first I thought that it had to do with the 
new RT kernels but I am pretty sure that this is not the case because I also 
saw this problem once after I made a clean Jaunty install and a system update 
through update manager. What happens is that I get an  --apci exiting-- problem 
when I try to reboot the system, followed  by the fact that my sound is gone.

Do you also experiencing such problems and if so what is your solution
to work around this problem. Would it be better to make a clean install,
then install the generic kernel and then install one of the new RT
kernels we have been working on?

I hope you have some answers/solutions for me..

thanks in advance,

Realtime dutchman

Vivichrist,

My wireless (SMC card) is working ok. I didn't do a lot of testing though, 
because it got late yesterday night (it took my system about 3 hrs to build a 
kernel).
Processor time is low and realtime behaviour seems to be fine with Jack/Ardour.

What I don't understand is why the Ubuntu Studio team doesn't use the
same procedure...because it seems to work very well.


Tonight I will test my tutorial once more on another disk to see if it can be 
made public to everyone who wants to try to compile for him/herself.

so I would compile for Athlon64 to get optimisations at a guess?
compiling was way to easy compared to my past efforts. most should find
it a cinch given detailed instructions. I got some weird errors
installing the deb because I installed the kernel first then the headers
and then tried reinstalling the kernel but make-kpkg doesn't seem to
make packages capable of re-installation instead one must remove and
install again. without the headers I couldn't get dkms to compile nvidia
180 drivers (duh). as for ubuntustudio team not not doing this stuff.
maybe the kernel doesn't require so much patching now and they just
haven't picked up on that yet ...? then again, I don't know how patched
the kernel from http://kernel.ubuntu.com/ is, but the one I tried from
kernel.org using the same procedure paniced at boot with a sync problem
(Turion cores go out of sync).

[Bug 290498] Re: linux-rt restricted to one CPU

2009-05-25 Thread Realtime Dutchman
Hi Vivichrist,

I'm back online again and can confirm that my second attempt building the 
kernel was a succes!
I'm running the Ubuntu Studio RT patched generic kernel and realtime behaviour 
is ok, and don't see any problems.

The kernel I have spinning as we speak is : 2.6.29.4-rt15-all-
nvk-052509-1

My offer to provide anyone with installation files is still open (see
previous messages) but send me a mail first :
realtime.dutchmanatgmail.com

I hope there is someone out there who wants to test the files.

As far as I'm concerned and able to judge the situation, we have solved
the kernel problem.

Thanks and talk to you later.

Realtime Dutchman.

2009-05-24 Thread vivichrist
I went to http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=M;O=D and
grabed the 2.6.29-4 source deb and applied the rt16 patch to it from
http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/. then copied across
the /boot/config-2.6.28-12-generic to that kernel source root directory.
did make gconfig and opened that config changed to full pre-emtion and
timing to 1000 like Luke Macneil has done. make-kpkg clean then
CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2 fakeroot make-kpkg --initrd --append-to-
version=-custom kernel_image kernel_headers installed the resulting
packages headers first. and hey presto. note. CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2
because my puta has duel core and this required installation of certain
dev packages.

vivichrist,

I assume you grabbed  :

linux-source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062904_all.deband made an install by
double clicking this file?

Didn´t you mean   patch-2.6.29.4-rt15.bz2   instead of   2.6.26.8-rt16
as you suggested?

Thx Vivichrist,

I´ll give it a try on my other installation disk.
I must say that the kernel I´m running now, the one I took from kernel.org I 
mean, is running like a champ, but never the less it is always healthy to try a 
few other options too. 

I´ll  keep you posted because this procedure will take me couple of
hours..

Hi Vivichrist,

I´m back online with my single core p4 sytem running using the RT
patched Ubuntu Studio generic kernel (build from linux-
source-2.6.29_2.6.29-02062904_all.deb) like vivichrist did.

The system is running smoothly and I don´t  notice any problems and had
a short test with jack and ardour which turned out to be fine.  See jack
settings as I reported earlier.

My new kernel is called:   2.6.29.4-rt15-all-nvk-052409-1

I did change the .config a little bit though because I switched off
kernel debugging in the  kernel hacking menu  and  made the RT settings.

I will write a tutorial based on the one I have for the kernel.org based
kernel   2.6.29.4-rt15-pentiumpro-nvk-052309-1 .

So at leased we have two options now; using the  kernel.org based RT
kernel or the fully Ubuntu Studio based RT kernel.

If anyone is interested please send me an e-mail (
realtime.dutchmanatgmail.com )  and tell me which version you would
like to try (at your own risk) and I will provide you with the data your
require.

 The linux-rt 2.6.27-3.8 release only uses one CPU (or core).  Perhaps of
 note is that the rt variant does not set CONFIG_NR_CPUS which is set to 64

 not set CONFIG_SMP which is set to y on the other two.

[Bug 290498] Re: linux-rt restricted to one CPU

2009-05-16 Thread Realtime Dutchman
Guys,

I have been testing kernel 2.6.29.1-rt8 quite a bit now. This is the home made 
kernel Luke MacNeil had put on his web site.
see download links:

http://www.lukemacneil.com/linux-headers-2.6.29.1-rt8-custom_2.6.29.1-rt8-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb
http://www.lukemacneil.com/linux-image-2.6.29.1-rt8-custom_2.6.29.1-rt8-custom-10.00.Custom_i386.deb

Firstly install 9.04 from scratch and after that install both debs by double 
clicking the files.
Ignore the two ¨hmm¨ warnings you will get during installation.
Then run update-manager if you want to.

Do not use wicd network tool for wireless because it gave trouble in my pc 
causing it not to shut down properly
(acpid exiting problem). I installed the ubuntu network manager instead.

I have running it on a my single core P4 and on a dual core pc (Intel
E8400) and runs without crashing and audio is handled real time as it
should. Jack shows me latencies far below 1 ms .

Jack settings:
Priority = 89
Frames/Period = 128
Sample Rate = 48000
Periods/Buffer = 3

The rest is default settings.


It seems that Luke has managed to build a fast kernel without speed and 
instability troubles. As far as I understand he has used an old ubuntu kernel 
configuration to setup his kernel (Hardy? I am not sure). Het took his sources 
from kernel.org.

see web site :
http://www.mail-archive.com/ubuntu-studio-us...@lists.ubuntu.com/msg04152.html

I hope someone at the Ubuntu Studio team can have a look at the jaunty
kernel and compare it with Lukes just to find out what is causing an
almost unworkable situation.

If i have some time left I will try to duplicate Lukes work and see if I
can get the same results with newer kernel versions.

I will keep you posted.

Realtime Dutchman.

2009-05-14 Thread Realtime Dutchman
Mike,
 
I installed the official jaunty 9.04 release and don't see any improvements 
concerning CPU performance. It still is very slow, asking to much time from my 
cpu and the strange thing is that when I install jaunty on a dual core pc 
(Intel cpu) it appears to be very unstable but I don't see the delays. Even 
during installation I had a system hang/crash which resulted in doing the 
installation all over again.
After googling I found out that I'm not the only one having this nasty issue.
Last night I gave up using the official  ubuntu 2.6.28-3-rt kernel and compiled 
my own from the www.kernel.org site. 
 
I used info from the following web page :
https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-users/2009-May/004757.html

and the Debian tutorial how to build a kernel. 
It took almost three hours before the pc had ended its complie and linking 
actions but finally I was able to generate to installation deb. files for 
kernel 2.6.29.3-rt13 which is running on my pc. 
I still see delays on my single core so that one seems not to be resolved but I 
hope this kernel will run on our dual core (It should if have read the comments 
well about this issue).

[Bug 290498] Re: linux-rt restricted to one CPU

2009-03-13 Thread pablomme
@Alessio: not quite.

I've installed the 2.6.28-2-rt kernel on my desktop and my laptop, which
have nothing in common hardware-wise. The kernel does see the second
core, but (reportedly) it's unusable. Running 'top' and pressing '1' I
get:

Cpu0  :  0.7%us,  0.3%sy,  0.0%ni, 99.0%id,  0.0%wa,  0.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st
Cpu1  :  4.3%us,  0.7%sy,  0.0%ni,  0.0%id,  0.0%wa, 95.0%hi,  0.0%si,  0.0%st

The second core remains at 95-99% no matter what.

Plus, if I try to reboot, by using the user-switch applet on my desktop
or by pressing the power button on my laptop for the dialogue to show
up, the computer stops responding to keyboard and mouse events (I do see
my temperature and CPU monitor applets updating themselves, so the
computer does not hang entirely), and the computer does not reboot.

Let me know how I can help debug this.

2009-02-28 Thread pablomme
If I understand correctly, the -rt patches have been ported to the
2.6.29 codebase by their authors. Is Jaunty shipping with 2.6.29? If
not, is there going to be a 2.6.29-rt module in the repositories for us
real-time people?

I tried  used Alessio's PPA and Its more stable but I still only see one
cpu on my hp compaq v5001au laptop. anybody else got custom packages I
could try? I heard someone compiled a vanilla unpatched kernel with
preempt enabled or something and that worked. I don't have enough room
to compile kernels.

2008-11-08 Thread vivichrist
I think there mite be a memory leak 'cause something takes up more and
more memory until it spills over into swap file and everything slows
down. this takes quite a while to happen but I use only the usual apps
and this doesn't happen with generic kernel. guess I should start a new
bug?

2008-11-05 Thread ScottMiller
I just ran across this:

http://ubuntustudio.org/8-10_release_note

We are sad to announce the real time kernel won't be installed by default in
Ubuntu Studio in this release. Because of some issues that were out of our
control, the real time kernel in this release has some problems: only supports
one processor (even on dual core machines) and suspend/hibernation/shutdown
don't work properly because of conflicts with the Network Manager. We are
doing our best to get these fixed, the kernel is in the repository for those
who want it anyway and an upgrade with the pristine version will be available
soon.
