[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
Maybe it doesn't help much here. It just *could* be that it doesn't have to do anything with the network being up, but with DNS resolution? I have had the problem on one computer (don't know why), and spotted the following line in /var/log/syslog: mount[859]: mount.nfs: Failed to resolve server kerberos: Temporary failure in name resolution So I tested a bit, and found that if I put "kerberos" with the right IP into /etc/hosts, it works perfectly. So maybe it is the problem that the name resolution at the boot time when NFS shares should be mounted, does still not work. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in nfs-utils package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
Steve Langasek, thank you for your comment. While it is always appreciated when a developer steps in and advises to a bug report, a portion of your comments don't make sense (which I'm happy to take off report, but they are relevant here). Regarding your comments: This bug very clearly has nothing at all to do with the BIOS. This wouldn't be clear to everyone, and just saying so doesn't clear this up for folks. Christopher, it is inappropriate to ask bug submitters to test with a new BIOS for bugs like this - the BIOS is entirely unrelated to the network filesystem layer,... Ok, but the BIOS does have a hand in a well functioning system, of which the network filesystem layer depends on.

Is there anything to indicate that it is likely to help on this occasion or that it is a kernel bug and not a problem somewhere in the system startup scripts. It seems quite possible that it is a bug where upstart believes that the network is up when it's not. If this is the case, it's necessarily a bug in either the kernel or the networking layer, not in upstart. Upstart itself (mountall) only tries to mount the network filesystems when it's received a notification that a network interface is up. It may not be the interface *needed* for the mount, but in this case it's expected to fail immediately and upstart will wait for the next network interface before retrying. If this is a kernel bug, it's an obscure one, and I don't see any point in having you retest with newer upstream kernels. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup.

While it is always appreciated when a developer steps in and advises to a bug report, a portion of your comments don't make sense (which I'm happy to take off report, but they are relevant here).

Christopher, it is inappropriate to ask bug submitters to test with a new BIOS for bugs like this - the BIOS is entirely unrelated to the network filesystem layer,... Ok, but the BIOS does have a hand in a well functioning system, of which the network filesystem layer depends on. No? No. The network filesystem layer *is unrelated to the BIOS*. And if you don't know this, you should not be following up to bugs asking users to do tests with a newer BIOS. Almost none of what the kernel does depends on the BIOS.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
Christopher, thank you for your comment on the outdated BIOS version. I completely see your point about good quality of bug reports. It may be some time until I can update our BIOSes, however. These are LTSP servers powering a whole school with 700 every-day users, it's elementary they are stable. For us being teachers by our main profession, it's a tough job running a network, since our superior authorities grant us almost no time for doing it. It's like you have a full-time job that keeps you busy 120% of your time and you are asked to run the company network in your free time -- with full responsibility. I heavily rely on sources like launchpad for doing that job, but I simply cannot always be in time with running tests on that system. Still, I want to give back a little by writing bug reports and helping to resolve bugs where I can. I will certainly find opportunity to upgrade our BIOSes sooner or later, but as others confirm the bug, I would not want to let this block the bug resolution process.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
A cleaner way of mounting the nfs shares than Josep provided is something like what I have below. It looks for whether the nfs server responds to a ping rather than the default route and will retry 3 times with a 3 second timeout each time. It also checks all nfs mount points listed in /etc/fstab which largely restores the functionality of that file. In any case this is a work around and it seems that fixing the original bug would be preferable to continued effort in this direction. cat /etc/fstab | sed 's/#.*//' | grep nfs | while read LINE do HOST=`echo $LINE | cut -f1 -d:` DIR=`echo $LINE | awk '{print $2}'` if ! mount -l -t nfs | awk '{print $3}' | grep -q ^$DIR$ then echo -n Mounting '$DIR' COUNT=0 STOP=0 while [ $STOP -eq 0 -a $COUNT -lt 3 ] do if ping -qAc 3 $HOST /dev/null then mount $DIR STOP=1 echo done. else # no sleep needed here because ping will take 3 seconds to fail anyway COUNT=$( expr $COUNT + 1 ) echo -n . fi done if [ $STOP -eq 0 ] then echo failed. $HOST not responding. fi else echo $DIR already mounted fi done -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup.

Andrew Radke, thank you for your comments. Regarding them https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1118447/comments/21 : I can confirm this bug on different hardware with completely up to date BIOS and firmware. The race condition we are seeing is being reported from varied sources on different hardware over a significant period of time so I think it is very unlikely to be effected by BIOS of firmware versions. I believe the status should still be confirmed. Despite it being replicated on disparate hardware, It is strongly preferred folks with an outdated BIOS update to the latest from their vendor. We can let this not be a show stopper, but please do not remove the tag as it's used for tracking purposes. In any event, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available (not the daily folder) following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags: kernel-fixed-upstream kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example: kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.13-rc6 This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
Unfortunately I'm not going to be able to test as requested in the short term as the systems involved are in production. I will see if I can replicate it on some virtual machines but again it could be a while until this is possible. While I also understand the preference for up to date BIOS it should be used with care for removing a confirmed bug status when it can be seen that one person is out of date. We have multiple people reporting the problem and it should not be assumed that no-one has up to date BIOS. Please also don't take the following as me trying to be rude, it is merely meant to be an observation of the history of the bug: In the past we have also been asked to update our kernels and at no stage has this improved the situation. Is there anything to indicate that it is likely to help on this occasion or that it is a kernel bug and not a problem somewhere in the system startup scripts. It seems quite possible that it is a bug where upstart believes that the network is up when it's not. I'm not an upstart expert so my observations here may be way off. /etc/init/mountall-net.conf is set to start on net-device-up /etc/init/network-interface.conf emits net-device-up but doesn't necessarily configure anything other than the loopback interface /etc/init/networking.conf also emits net-device-up a grep network /var/log/boot.log on my system (that uses the noauto option and mounts via /etc/rc.local) shows the following: * Starting configure network device used by iSCSI root [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] * Starting Mount network filesystems [ OK ] * Stopping Mount network filesystems [ OK ] * Starting configure network device [ OK ] * Starting Mount network filesystems [ OK ] * Stopping Mount network filesystems [ OK ] * Starting configure network device [ OK ] * Starting configure network device security [ OK ] * Starting configure virtual network devices [ OK ] * Stopping configure virtual network devices [ OK ] * Starting Serial port to network proxy ser2net [ OK ] Why is it that mountall-net (Mount network filesystems) is happening before either network-interface (configure network device) or networking (configure virtual network devices)? And what would be the implications of removing emits net-device-up from /etc/init/network-interface.conf so that we only get net-device-up once ifup -a has been run rather than just a network interface is up? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
I found what's going on, it looks to me like there is another race condition between upstart and systemd scripts, sometimes rc.local gets to mount some of my NFS shares but other times it doesn't.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1118447] Re: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang
This bug has been around for years and we have worked around it by mounting NFS from rc.local. It's not pretty, but it gets pretty old to reboot your system and find it hanging. For some reason the NFS mounts won't wait until networking has completed (i.e. bringing up the interface). I doubt it is a kernel bug, but I'm happy to test. It's not just Ubuntu, but also Mint, so I guess all of Debian and derivatives. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1118447 Title: Race condition with network and NFS mounts causes boottime hang Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in “nfs-utils” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: I seem to experience a race condition during boot of my ubuntu 12.04 server: In approx. one of seven boots, the server hangs during bootup.

Hey. I seem to experience this bug as well. It definitely feels like a race condition somewhere. I have to reboot my machine 2-5 times each morning to finally get it to boot. I don't have any issues mounting stuff after bootup is done, it certainly feels like a bug around upstart/mountall to me.
