[Bug 658560] Re: Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine
I just ran into this problem. And I can confirm post #6, adding the pci=nocrs to grub.conf solves the problem. Another workaround is to boot an older kernel version, some 2.6.34.xxx. https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16228 tells of a patch for fixing this is available. And there they tell also, that there is no BIOS for the Dell T3500 available resolving the problem. So IMHO for ubuntu either the pci=nocrs should go into the grub.conf (for Dell T3500) or - preferred - the mentioned patch should be included ... ? -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 658560] Re: Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine
@Gonzhauser, thanks for trying the test kernel noted in comment #2 and confirming it fixes the issue. The next round of kernel updates would supersede the test kernel. However, it appears the next official Maverick kernel update will be an ABI bump, so you would have the option of selecting the older test kernel or the newer updated kernel. Getting these patches accepted as a Maverick stable release update will be a bit difficult (ie it's not exactly appropriate to qualify for SRU). Even Linus himself has refused to accept these into the upstream 2.6.36 kernel as noted in https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/189182/ I definitely am not going to pull this series for 2.6.36. I could possibly take this first one that only prepares for the real change and doesn't actually change anything in itself, but switching around the order of allocations after -rc5 would be crazy. Yes, it may help some people, but we have absolutely no idea who it could hurt. So the whole thing is definitely something for the merge window (and preferably pretty early there too) I have to agree that this is a very risky change with a high risk of regression which is always something that one tries to avoid when introducing changes/fixes to a released kernel. I still need to discuss with the rest of the Ubuntu Kernel SRU team, but we may just have to wait for this to resolve itself in Natty. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided = Medium ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Triaged -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 658560] Re: Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine
Thank you for your help. I believe that I have the latest BIOS. No I don't, upgrading to A08 dated 9/17/10 right now. I am not sure how to change kernels, do I use the update manager? I have only two kernels in the boot choice (plus memtest and the old Windows partition), and only the older kernel is bootable. I am afraid that if I add another kernel, the older (working one) will be deleted, and I'll end up with two bad kernels Is there a way to keep more than two kernels? -avi -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 658560] Re: Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine
Ok, I tested two things. 1. The kernel from comment #2 works. 2. Upgrading to the latest BIOS provided by DELL (A08, from A03) doesn't work with the old kernel. So: Kernel from #2 works with BIOS A03 and A08, stock Maverick kernel doesn't work with both BIOSs. Should I a) communicate this upstream, b) file a bug at DELL?

@Avi: Download the deb packages from #2, reboot your old kernel, install new packages by sudo aptitude install *.deb and don't worry about removing old kernels, everything is preserved. Boot into your new shiny 2.6.25 kernel that actually boots. :) Well, at least it worked for me on my T3500. g -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

@Leann: Your kernel is installed as linux-image-2.6.35-22-generic.

as mentioned earlier, the A08 BIOS update did not resolve the problem. pci=nocrs does work with the 10.10 Ubuntu kernel and A08 BIOS (did not try the older kernel with A08) did not yet try the test patched kernel from #2, since I can boot with pci=nocrs and I need to get some real work done... -avi -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'd built a test kernel for a different bug but it includes the patches from the upstream bugzilla report you noted here. https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/647043/comments/14 .

Dell T3500 worked just fine with 10.04 upgraded to 10.10 using update manager, and it won't boot. I get white text on black background, not even sure what I am looking at... dropped me into some kind of shell? tried booting from the 10.10 install CD (which I burned to install on another machine) also won't boot off the install CD get the Ubuntu logo, with dots underneath, then it again drops me into a shell. back to booting from disk, but this time choosing the older kernel on the boot menu, and it booted up just fine. and seems to work fine. not an expert, not sure what's wrong, and how to report this in more details. -- Kernel Oops with Maverick in ahci_stop_engine https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/658560 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Try the above kernel and then update your BIOS. I am going to do this tomorrow. I can tell you then how it worked.
