[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
Ordering of the splash ahead of emitting rc runlevel level has been done before in Fedora, to properly show shutdown splash to avoid scary messages. I have also noticed that there are additional messages generated on the VT through the lifecycle of the machine - that is after lightdm cleared it and shutdown initiated. Therefore I add clearing VT messages before lightdm shutdowns. Instead of introducing a dummy intermediate job to negotiate whether or not there is a DM to stop, I use the wait-for-state facility and therefore make the following dependency chain: starting rc RUNLEVEL=[016] - waits to start shutdown-plymouth (if any) - (stopping plymouth) - waits to stop lightdm (if any) This also splits plymouth into two jobs, instead of having duplicate / ORed start on, exec post-start scripts. Semantically it also makes sense, it's two different instances. This also makes desktop-shutdown event redundant. To try this out: cd /etc/init; sudo patch -p0 path/to/patch I have tested it on trusty and have a message-less shutdown. The patch can equally be applied on precise, please test it on the affected precise machines / OEM devices. ** Patch added: message-less-shutdown.patch https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/967229/+attachment/3924322/+files/message-less-shutdown.patch -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
So I've had a look at trying to start plymouth before lightdm has shutdown, in order to start capturing console messages sooner. Unfortunately this doesn't work right, lightdm shutting down puts the VT into a state that lightdm isn't expecting so the splash doesn't update the screen correctly. I don't see a way to fix this reliably with the current architecture. We could fix individual messages that are being output, but unless there's some way to get the output redirected to plymouth before lightdm stops, there's no way to ensure a completely text-free shutdown without causing very problematic knock-on effects. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Hi Steve, I've linked a branch that clears the vt before lightdm starts up, so any cruft that was echoed out to the terminal will not survive when lightdm stops . This fixes the first bullet you mentioned, and also fixes this problem when you do S3. I've taken the additional step of coloring the text black, but I can take that out if you wish. As for the second bullet, basically the way to fix this is to make sure that upstart schedules in the plymouth job immediately after lightdm stops and before any other shutdown jobs are scheduled. Or as you mentioned, we could start plymouth before lightdm stops, but I'm not sure how to achieve that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

James, the vt definitely needs to be cleared after plymouth exits (i.e., after lightdm starts up), not before, in order to avoid races. Brian Murray has been looking into this; Brian, any further progress? As for the second bullet, basically the way to fix this is to make sure that upstart schedules in the plymouth job immediately after lightdm stops and before any other shutdown jobs are scheduled. First, there's no such facility in upstart. Second, it doesn't change the fact that any other jobs that are /already stopping/ at the time lightdm stops may generate output. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
So there is a bug here with upstart, but I think it's more subtle than what you describe. There's really no strict ordering of any of the jobs at shutdown time, *except* that the plymouth splash screen is started immediately after lightdm exits. Delaying the shutdown of all other services (including /etc/init/rc.conf) until after lightdm has exited would be cumbersome and potentially fragile. Instead, I think there are two things that need to be done here: - the screen needs to be cleared behind lightdm when it *starts*; this way, any start-time noise (which accounts for at least most of what's on the screen in the video attached to the original report) is gone. This impacts not only shutdown, but also any X server restarts/crashes; we shouldn't show garbage then either. This should probably be done in the lightdm job. - if possible, plymouth should start *before* lightdm stops on shutdown, putting its redirection of console output in place before any scripts have a chance to output to the console. This way the shutdown scripts are able to keep on running, and are just prevented from messing up the screen. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
I messed around with this a little today, inspired by the news of the new kernel vt-switchless resume support. You can definitely work around this by doing: printf \033[0;30m /dev/tty7 clear /dev/tty7 However, the real bug here is with upstart. It seems that upstart chooses to execute a few of the old init.d scripts before running the upstart formatted /etc/init/plymouth.conf. plymouth should be the first thing to run after the X server is destroyed, not some K20 scripts in /etc/rc.d -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
1. As logout, the X Server exit and lightdm respawn another instance of X Server. So content of text console appear for that short interval. If we don't clean the text in console, then we need to re-design the behavior as logout (which I have no idea how) 2. The text that is left on the Text console comes from other process that upstart bring up. In my observation, upstart starts program in parallel in possible. As it run lightdm, it switch to tty7 and other process that start up after output their message to tty7. I try to delay lightdm startup time (add sleep 5 before exec lightdm), then the tty7 is clean. So as logout / reboot / shutdown, no such text message is displayed. Only black screen is displayed. I think the correct solution is: make upstart output program startup message to tty1, only span '/sbin/getty -8 38400 tty1' only after all other program starts on boot. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/oem-priority/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

This approach doesn't really work.

[Bug 967229] Re: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down
A bot changed to intel driver, but that's at least not correct. Changing to plymouth, since I guess lightdm at least isn't running at the time of logging out or shutting down (it's then started if it was logout in question). Plymouth should have the splash screen available right away when shutting down, and possibly also for the split second before lightdm starts (a design detail). A console screen should never be shown. ** Package changed: xserver-xorg-video-intel (Ubuntu) = plymouth (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/967229 Title: Text mode shown briefly with various cryptic texts when logging out or shutting down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/plymouth/+bug/967229/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Yes, there seem to still be some races we haven't figured out yet where plymouth will start up before lightdm has torn down the display, resulting in the console being shown instead of the splash screen.
