Bug#529785: it seems the bluetooth stack issues originate in a kernel regression

2009-06-13 Thread Eddy Petrișor
Hello,

I am not yet 100% sure what happens for others, but in my case I
narrowed down the problem to the kernel. The 2.6.26 kernels seem to work
fine for me, but none of the later kernels do.


Daniel, what kernel version did you use when you stopped experiencing
problems in squeeze? What kernel are you running now? Does the bluetooth
stack work properly after a hibernate/resume cycle with any kernel later
than 2.6.26?

Bug#532908: initramfs-tools: initrd image not created on custom kernels

 Package: initramfs-tools
 Version: 0.93.2
 Severity: important
 
 I haven't verified on Debian shipped kernels, but when installing my
 custom kernel, initramfs-tools didn't create an initrd image for the
 same.
 
 I had to boot through the previous kernel and manually create the initrd
 image.
 
 Ritesh

this is due to changes of kernel-package and nobody stepped up yet
to provide the correct hook script /etc/kernel/, see kernel-package
docs and initramfs-tools bug report.

could close away but will merge with aboves report on time..

Because that's the goal... It's really an annoying problem for us.

 It's a large patch combining cleanup and functional changes, which is
 always hard to review.  Please instead identify which of the following
 changes between 2.6.26 and 2.6.27 are needed:
 
 95b866d e1000e: Fix incorrect debug warning
 [...]
 a5136e2 e1000e: allow VLAN devices to use TSO and TCP CSUM offload
 
 I've put these individual changes in
 http://womble.decadent.org.uk/tmp/e1000e-patches/ so you don't need to
 use git to generate them.
 
 Ben.

Thanks a lot for the effort to put this all online for me. I got them
downloaded already locally, you can cleanup and delete these from your
web server if you want.

I can try the patches one by one, but that can take a long long time if
I have to recompile a full kernel package each time. What do you think
is the best approach for me to make quick tests? Just do a make
modules_install from the linux-source-2.6.26 folder (taken from the
linux-source-2.6 package), test, apply another patch, test, etc. ?

Also, what's your suggestion to test all this? Make a dichotomy test,
applying half of the patches, then 1/4, etc. until I can isolate what
patch(es) are needed? That's my first idea, and shouldn't take too long
if I can compile the e1000e module only and not the full kernel.

Thanks for your help,

Please comsider adding a fscache fix for 2.6.30

2009-06-13 Thread Adrian von Bidder
Heyho!

Could you please consider the patch in
  http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13469
to fix fscache?

Without it, fscache immediately oopsed and disabled itself.

The patch is from fscache author David Howells, and I'm running it 
successfully on my system on top of 2.6.30-1~experimental.1~snapshot.13794.

cheers

You shouldn't need to recompile the whole kernel every time - just do
it once, then run make again after each patch application/removal.

 Also, what's your suggestion to test all this? Make a dichotomy test,
 applying half of the patches, then 1/4, etc. until I can isolate what
 patch(es) are needed? That's my first idea, and shouldn't take too long
 if I can compile the e1000e module only and not the full kernel.

What is the problem you are seeing w/ the existing 2.6.26 kernel? I
didn't see any explicit support for new hardware in these changesets,
so I'm guessing the driver already loads but fails? The failure mode
might give us a hint.

 Thanks for your help,
 
 Thomas

Unfortunately you have just missed the cut-off for stable update 5.0.2,
but there may be an update to stable-proposed-updates soon after, which
you could then add to your APT sources.

Alternately you can build and install e1000e separately from
e1000.sf.net.

  always hard to review.  Please instead identify which of the following

You're welcome.  It's actually really easy to extract a patch series
like this from git.

 I got them
 downloaded already locally, you can cleanup and delete these from your
 web server if you want.
 
 I can try the patches one by one, but that can take a long long time if
 I have to recompile a full kernel package each time.

You won't.

 What do you think
 is the best approach for me to make quick tests? Just do a make
 modules_install from the linux-source-2.6.26 folder (taken from the
 linux-source-2.6 package), test, apply another patch, test, etc. ?

Once you've configured and built the kernel once, it should be as simple
as:

patch -p1  some-patch
make  # will rebuild just e1000e
rmmod e1000e
insmod drivers/net/e1000e/e1000e.ko

 Also, what's your suggestion to test all this? Make a dichotomy test,
 applying half of the patches, then 1/4, etc. until I can isolate what
 patch(es) are needed? That's my first idea, and shouldn't take too long
 if I can compile the e1000e module only and not the full kernel.

A lot of them are just formatting changes or adaptation to API changes,
and can immediately be discounted.  Then you could do what you suggest
(this is commonly called bisection, not dichotomy) over the remainder.

Bug#503292: linux-latest-2.6: new dummy images for Samsung S3C-based devices

2009-06-13 Thread Luca Capello
retitle 503292 linux-latest-2.6: new dummy images for Samsung s3c24xx devices
thanks

Hi there!

Cc:ing the pkg-fso-maint@ mailing list as well as the debian-arm@ one:
please keep cc:ed at least pkg-fso-maint@ (if you do so, no need to cc:
me, I read that list).

FYI, I recently asked for the status of Openmoko support in upstream
Linux kernel:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.handhelds.openmoko.kernel/9955

On Fri, 24 Oct 2008 15:39:05 +0200, Luca Capello wrote:
 For the other kernel flavors these packages are provided by
 linux-latest-2.6: I'm not here to ask for these dummy packages right
 now.  On the contrary, since I'm going to add them to the
 linux-2.6-openmoko source package [4], for $OPENMOKO I'd like to use a
 name which *maybe* will be the same linux-latest-2.6 will provide in
 future (thus avoiding hardcoded package dependencies).

 I thought about the -s3c suffix, because both Openmoko models (GTA01,
 Neo 1973 [5] and GTA02, Neo FreeRunner [6]) use a Samsung SoC from the
 S3C family (2410 and 2442, respectively).  Would this be a good option
 in the long term?

I found a more detailed list of the different ARM processors [7],
specifically for the Samsung SoC ones:

  * ARM920T: S3C2410, S3C2440, S3C2442 and S3C2443
  * ARM926EJS: S3C2412, S3C2413, S3C2416 and S3C2450
  * ARM1176EJS: S3C6400 and S3C6410

According to linux/Documentation/arm/Samsung-S3C24XX/Overview.txt:

  The Samsung S3C24XX range of ARM9 System-on-Chip CPUs are supported
  by the 's3c2410' architecture of ARM Linux. Currently the S3C2410,
  S3C2412, S3C2413, S3C2440, S3C2442 and S3C2443 devices are supported.

Indeed, both GTA01 and GTA02 are supported by the s3c2410 architecture
(linux/arch/arm/mach-s3c2410 and linux/arch/arm/mach-s3c2440), thus I
guess a better suffix would be -s3c2410 (I changed the bug title to
reflect this).

I do not know how much performance we gain with an Openmoko-optimised
kernel.  In this case we can simply use the -openmoko suffix.

As a final note, it seems there are incompatible kernel options for
GTA01 and GTA02 [8], thus maybe a common kernel would never be possible.
I have not tried to build a common kernel for GTA01 and GTA02 yet [9],
nevertheless, my first question stands.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca

did you try 2.6.30?

 following messages back in my syslog:

 :sunrpc:rpcauth_lookup_credcache+0xae/0x1e9
[...]

That corresponds to this line in rpcauth_lookup_credcache():

if (!entry-cr_ops-crmatch(acred, entry, flags))

The function pointer entry-cr_ops-crmatch has turned out not to be a
valid function address, and since entry-cr_ops should be pointing to a
static constant structure which cannot itself be corrupted this suggests
that *entry has somehow been corrupted.

There is an upstream change that might deal with this issue, but I'm not
convinced that it's related:

  The attached patch combines a bug fix made between 2.6.26 and .28 with
  most of the changes you identified.  Based on my reading of commit
  messages and discussion, I think this makes a coherent set of changes.
  However there have been many other changes to the scheduler in this time
  and I cannot say for sure whether any of those are also required as I do
  not have any great knowledge of it.
 
  Please try rebuilding the lenny kernel (linux-source-2.6.26) with this
  patch applied and report whether it fixes the bug for you.
  Thank you for response!
  I've applied the patch to most recent lenny kernel and booted it. If
  in two weeks the problem does not occur, I will assume that the bug is
  gone (I will let you know).
  
  Thanks again!
 
 Is this for Dom0?
 
 I have two systems suffering this pain...and the silence on the Debian 
 kernel lists to my offers to help test the patch is deafening. ;-)
 
 There are some patches mentioned here for 2.6.26 and also mention of 2.6.29.
 
 I am sorry because I can not get Google to tell me how Debian Xen
 kernels are patched and built :-(

See http://wiki.debian.org/HowToRebuildAnOfficialDebianKernelPackage

 How does one build something like
 xen-linux-system-2.6.26-custom-xen-amd64 with those patches?

That's actually a metapackage - it depends on the dom0 kernel and
hypervisor, but doesn't contain any code.  There's no need to rebuild
it.

 Also assuming the fixes are already included in 2.6.29how should I
 build a Debian xen-linux-system-2.6.29-custom-xen-amd64?

They are, but there are many other changes in 2.6.29 so it wouldn't be a
valid test.

 I am familiar with make-kpkg...

I'm not sure you can use that for Xen kernels.

Ben.

 FWIW I have reinstalled Lenny since this original report and I get
 seemingly different behavior. It's still not quite right.. I can't
 control the wireless indicator, it shows off, but it works anyway. I
 can't change the status even when I unload asus_acpi.
 
 I'm not on the system now so I'll have to try later.
 
 How can I try this 2.6.28-1 kernel? I don't see it in testing or unstable.

Try the 2.6.29 kernel in unstable.  I closed as version 2.6.28-1 because
that's the first Debian package version with the fix.

Removal of rt73-modules

2009-06-13 Thread Ben Hutchings
Daniel,

The Ralink legacy drivers previously maintained at serialmonkey.com
have now been completely abandoned in favour of the rewritten drivers
included in the kernel.  I am trying to discourage people from using the
legacy drivers and to report bugs on the kernel if the replacement
drivers don't work for them.

So, as further discouragement, I would like to get rid of the
rt73-modules binary packages.  As these are the only binaries now built
by linux-modules-contrib-2.6 I think that means removing that source
package too.  Do you see any problem with this?

Ben.

no; the conglomeration package has to stay. there will be other contrib
