[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I've installed the 20240410 iso on a couple of machines and this bug is as good as fixed. The systemd task would be nice to complete but that's more for the sake of bug 1914409.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
It seems unlikely my all-in-one kernel fix will be accepted upstream. While I could propose it as an Ubuntu patch, another alternative is to just let the linux task track bug 2049390 (Fix Committed). Then most people will only need the above Plymouth patch to get a complete fix. The remaining tasks beyond that are: initramfs-tools: Required to keep the initrd size under control after the Plymouth fix is released. systemd: Would still be nice to implement a redundant fix to suppress the "clean" message. That would fix bug 1914409 and when combined with loglevel=3, would also prevent this bug 1970069. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress => Fix Committed ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) => (unassigned) -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in initramfs-tools package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Fix Committed Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: [ Impact ] Kernel (and systemd) log messages appear during boot for many machines, when the user should be seeing only the BIOS logo and/or Plymouth splash screens.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
Seems it's fairly easy to make a working solution in initramfs-tools alone, but there's a compromise. If I only include tiny/simple framebuffer drivers in initrd then i915 starts so late that Plymouth doesn't use it, and bug 2054769 can occur on some machines. If I include all the current drm drivers in initrd then it bloats to 100MB, but at least i915 starts early enough (only just) to avoid bug 2054769. I'm currently leaning toward only including tiny/simple framebuffer drivers and trying to solve bug 2054769 with additional heuristics in Plymouth itself (when the physical monitor dimensions are unknown under simpledrm).

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
Fedora 39: CONFIG_FB_VESA=y CONFIG_FB_EFI=y Ubuntu 24.04: # CONFIG_FB_VESA is not set # CONFIG_FB_EFI is not set In the kernel source, DRM_SIMPLEDRM recommends SYSFB_SIMPLEFB if you want it to work on UEFI and VESA. And we do enable SYSFB_SIMPLEFB whose help text says: > you should still keep vesafb and others enabled as fallback > if a system framebuffer is incompatible with simplefb. So overall I don't think SimpleDRM *needs* any legacy fbdev like FB_EFI or FB_VESA, they're just recommended as a fallback. I'll do more testing in the coming days to verify if SimpleDRM is really working as intended. But the main concern here is that we might have broken some systems by disabling the legacy fbdev drivers. I'm not sure.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I've analysed a couple of Noble systems today and don't think initramfs-
tools needs improving (although it might not hurt). On both systems,
plymouth-start was within 1 second of simpledrm starting (same
timestamp), but the bug still occurs. The reasons are:
1. One system actually experiences the bug ("fbcon: Taking over
console") _before_ "Initialized simpledrm" due to kernel error-level
messages.
2. After setting loglevel=3 (bug 2049390), it's a slight improvement but
the "clean" message from fsck via systemd still interrupts the boot
sequence.
So it looks like we need either:
* loglevel=3 (bug 2049390) and a systemd fix for fsck; or
* The kernel patch I've already proposed upstream.
** Changed in: initramfs-tools (Ubuntu)

Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Kernel (and systemd) log messages appear during boot for many
machines, when the user should be seeing only the BIOS logo and/or
Plymouth splash screens.
[ Workaround ]
On most machines you can hide the problem by using these kernel parameters
together:
quiet splash loglevel=2 fastboot
[ Test Plan ]
1. Boot Ubuntu on a number of laptops that have the problem and verify no
console text messages appear during boot.
2. Verify you can switch VTs (e.g. Ctrl + Alt + F4) and log into them still.
3. Reboot Ubuntu and remove the "splash" kernel parameter, now messages
should appear.
[ Where problems could occur ]
Since the fix works by deferring fbcon's takeover of the console, the
main problem encountered during its development was the inability to
VT switch.
[ Original Description ]
Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not
as clean as it used to be.
Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04:
GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt
Currently in 22.04:
GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen
again for a sec > Login prompt
All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that
they were not appearing during boot.
I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding
"loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash".
Regarding the fsck related message, I can get rid of them by adding
"fsck.mode=skip".
However, I do not want to just disable fsck or set the loglevel to 0.
This is not a sustainable solution.
Something definitely changed here. These messages are not of enough
relevance to be shown at boot by default, and they should remain
hidden like they were in Focal.
Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of
the OS for desktop.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I'm starting to suspect our patch (comment #39) isn't directly to blame for the systemd issue. Disabling or otherwise breaking systemd- fsckd.service doesn't stop fsck output from polluting the console and triggering this bug. Only skipping fsck avoids it. You can skip fsck using 'fastboot' or 'fsck.mode=skip' on the kernel command line. The fact that fsck prints a useless success message to its stdout is the issue, but it's upstream systemd asking for that: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/blob/main/src/fsck/fsck.c#L336 and there doesn't seem to be any simple fsck parameter to tell it to run more quietly (systemd already uses fsck -T). I think maybe Red Hat unwittingly works around the problem by starting the Plymouth splash earlier in initrd because they have SimpleDRM enabled. -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Invalid Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: [ Impact ] Kernel (and systemd) log messages appear during boot for many machines, when the user should be seeing only the BIOS logo and/or Plymouth splash screens.

The blanking from GRUB_TIMEOUT>0 will be made much worse by CONFIG_FB_EFI=n because usually in Ubuntu it's the efifb that restores the logo after Grub has wiped it. I think not having CONFIG_FB_EFI at the same time as using GRUB_TIMEOUT>0 explains your previous "really long time of a black screen".

GRUB_TIMEOUT > 0 also causes the vendor logo to be replaced by a black screen, but that seems to be Grub's fault. Default Ubuntu won't have that problem since it ships GRUB_TIMEOUT=0.

I think that's a different bug. I believe it's when plymouthd is starting and is the handover (mode set?) from efifb to DRM. It doesn't happen at all if you add "nomodeset" (please try that).

I tested it on Noble with a hand built kernel and it at least does what you planned (don't see any console messages), but also I'm not seeing the OEM vendor logo stick all the way through. There's a really long time of a black screen. Not sure if this is because it was an upstream kernel and it's missing a VT switch patch or something.

> You could detect both parameters to avoid that corner case. Sure one can check for "splash nomodeset" to avoid the confusion in most cases, but that wouldn't fix it for "splash $DRIVER.modeset=0" or less common architectures which might have no primary framebuffer. I guess we can tell people who are debugging to remove "splash", and if such a less common architecture did exist then report a new kernel bug that it has no primary framebuffer. Still, I'll keep searching for solutions that don't rely on the primary framebuffer trick. P.S.

Yeah; so try forcing plymouth to the Ubuntu initrd like this: echo "FRAMEBUFFER=y" | sudo tee /etc/initramfs-tools/conf.d/splash Then if you rebuild the initrd you'll end up with plymouth in it.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
"splash" is more appropriate than "quiet" (unfortunately) because we would delay framebuffer takeover to the same event (primary DRM startup) as Plymouth does. I would also like to know why our Plymouth doesn't render on SimpleDRM even when it's available (tested in bug 1965303). I don't really know if Fedora does that better or they just failed to notice the bug.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I now expect the kernel patch would change before it gets proposed to dri-devel. In particular the primary delay doesn't need to be configurable (or even finite?), and the secondary delay probably doesn't need to be more than zero. But the feature would still be gated on the "splash" kernel parameter which is Plymouth-specific and may cause pushback from kernel developers. It's starting to make more sense to implement the console disabling using ioctls in plymouthd itself. Because I think plymouthd is running early enough to do that, it's only refusing to render for several seconds so fbcon wins the race to the framebuffer. -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in systemd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
The kernel patch is still in progress but I also wonder if plymouthd starts early enough to do all the console blocking? If so then it could FBIOPUT_CON2FBMAP like con2fbmap does, to umap the console from the framebuffer. But that's still racing with other kernel things which might have already dumped text onto the console. So a kernel patch is probably still the only fully reliable solution. -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Invalid Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
Actually, not that scary. I think I can implement a complete solution as a single kernel patch. Just extend fbcon's deferred takeover feature to wait until a certain timeout has passed. And if "splash" is present then you can assume that should be a default of 10 seconds to wait for Plymouth's 8 second device timeout. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I was wrong, the kernel has no interest in "splash" and I suspect it is plymouth displaying the unwanted messages. Perhaps we're not necessarily seeing the kernel log though. Are we just seeing systemd messages (PLY_ENABLE_SYSTEMD_INTEGRATION)? If that's it then we just need to make sure plymouthd's default mode is to not display anything (till DRM is ready with graphics). ** No longer affects: linux (Ubuntu) -- 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/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.
