Maciej Puzio, it's strongly preferred one reports on a per hardware
basis, as it's cheap to mark something a duplicate of another if
determined as such.

  [Dell PowerEdge R510] Regression: Kernel 3.2.0-64 fails to boot with
  USB3 controller card

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  A routine system update of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to kernel 3.2.0-64
  resulted in unbootable system on two machines. Further testing
  revealed that kernel fails while initializing HighPoint RocketU 1144C
  USB 3.0 controller. This is a PCIe x4 add-in card that contains four
  USB 3.0 ports, each equipped with its own controller. The card did and
  does work without any problems with kernel 3.2.0-63 and earlier. Prior
  to installing kernel 3.2.0-64 there were neither hardware nor software
  problems with either of the machines.

  Steps to reproduce:
  apt-get dist-upgrade
  sync
  reboot
  Result: system fails to boot.

  The workaround is to revert to kernel 3.2.0-63 or to remove the
  RocketU card.

  Symptoms:
  System boots normally until initialization of Areca drives connected to the

  the boot progress with a high framerate camera, and even so some

2014-06-14 Thread Christopher M. Penalver
Maciej Puzio, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available from 
the first line at the top page (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-3.15

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. As well, please 
remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's
Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your
understanding.

2014-06-13 Thread Maciej Puzio
I'm attaching the file generated by command:
apport-cli -f -p linux --save bug1328984.apport
This was done with the machine running 12.04 Server with kernel 3.2.0-63.

May I ask for the reply to my question about the results of testing the
problem on a different hardware? (The regression has been reproduced,
but symptoms are somewhat different, and I worry about confusion which
may result from mixing discussion about two hardware configurations. On
the other hand, I am reluctant to start a new bug report, as this
appears to be a single bug.)

1) The purpose of the apport-collect is to gather the necessary debug
information about your hardware, not provide logs about the crash.

2) One may utilize https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328984] Re: Regression: Kernel 3.2.0-64 fails to boot with USB3 controller card

2014-06-12 Thread Maciej Puzio
I am unable to submit apport-collected data due to what appears to be
numerous bugs in apport tools:

1. Submitting data directly from the affected machine is not possible
due to apport not being able to connect through a proxy.

2. Following instructions on referenced page to submit previously
created .apport file using ubuntu-bug does not work, because ubuntu-bug
ignores file specified in -c or --crash-file parameter, and proceeds to
gather system information from the machine on which it is running. As
this is a wrong machine, I had no choice but to cancel the submission.

3. In addition, ubuntu-bug generates the following error: 
No packages found matching linux.
ERROR: hook /usr/share/apport/general-hooks/cloud_archive.py crashed

At this point debugging apport is not my priority. I would be grateful
if you indicate an alternative way to proceed.

  Regression: Kernel 3.2.0-64 fails to boot with USB3 controller card

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  A routine system update of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to kernel 3.2.0-64
  resulted in unbootable system on two machines. Further testing
  revealed that kernel fails while initializing HighPoint RocketU 1144C
  USB 3.0 controller. This is a PCIe x4 add-in card that contains four
  USB 3.0 ports, each equipped with its own controller. The card did and
  does work without any problems with kernel 3.2.0-63 and earlier. Prior
  to installing kernel 3.2.0-64 there were neither hardware nor software
  problems with either of the machines.

  Steps to reproduce:
  apt-get dist-upgrade
  sync
  reboot
  Result: system fails to boot.

  The workaround is to revert to kernel 3.2.0-63 or to remove the
  RocketU card.

Maciej Puzio, could you please boot into 14.04 Server via
http://releases.ubuntu.com/trusty/ (or 10.04/other release if that
doesn't work), gather the apport-collect file, use a USB stick to move
the data to another computer, and attach the file manually to this
report?

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1328984] Re: Regression: Kernel 3.2.0-64 fails to boot with USB3 controller card

2014-06-11 Thread Maciej Puzio
I am unable to run the apport-collect command for two reasons:

1. The bug in question renders the machine unbootable. To boot the
machine and run apport-collect, it is necessary to change either the
software or hardware configuration. This would create an environment in
which bug is not reproducible.

2. Two affected machines are servers located behind a corporate proxy.
Apport-collect does not allow transmission through a proxy.

As instructed, I am changing the status to 'Confirmed'.

** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu)
   Status: Incomplete = Confirmed

Title:
  Regression: Kernel 3.2.0-64 fails to boot with USB3 controller card

Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  A routine system update of Ubuntu 12.04 LTS to kernel 3.2.0-64
  resulted in unbootable system on two machines. Further testing
  revealed that kernel fails while initializing HighPoint RocketU 1144C
  USB 3.0 controller. This is a PCIe x4 add-in card that contains four
  USB 3.0 ports, each equipped with its own controller. The card did and
  does work without any problems with kernel 3.2.0-63 and earlier. Prior
  to installing kernel 3.2.0-64 there were neither hardware nor software
  problems with either of the machines.

  Steps to reproduce:
  apt-get dist-upgrade
  sync
  reboot
  Result: system fails to boot.

  The workaround is to revert to kernel 3.2.0-63 or to remove the
  RocketU card.

  Hardware description (same on both machines):
  Dell PowerEdge R510
  PERC6/i RAID controller
  64GB RAM DDR3 ECC registered
  Dual CPU: Intel Xeon X5660 2.80GHz
  HighPoint RocketU 1144C 4-Port USB 3.0 PCIe 2.0 x4 HBA

  Operating system (identical on both machines):
  Ubuntu 12.04.4 LTS
  Linux 3.2.0-64-generic x86_64

  Drives:
  sda - logical drive on PERC6/i, OS
  sdb - logical drive on PERC6/i, data
  sdc - Areca 5040 external RAID connected by USB3 to RocketU card
  sdd - Areca 5040 external RAID connected by USB3 to RocketU card
  sde - Areca 5040 external RAID connected by USB3 to RocketU card

  Symptoms:
  System boots normally until initialization of Areca drives connected to the 
RocketU card. The following messages are displayed on screen when booting 
without quiet and with debug options. These are last messages of a typical 
part of the boot sequence. Following it is a ~2 minute lag when no messages are 
displayed.

  [Please note that no trace of the boot progress gets recorded in
  system logs, and messages on screen scroll very fast. I had to record
  the boot progress with a high framerate camera, and even so some
  messages scrolled too fast and were not recorded. The following is a
  manual transcript of fragments of these videos; please forgive
  inevitable typos.]

  After a two minute delay, the following messages appear in an infinite
  loop.  Please note that these messages appear in a somewhat random
  sequence, and not all messages appear on every boot. The only thing
  that works at this point is Ctrl-Alt-Delete.
