I used https://github.com/mcgrof/fake-firmware-test to confirm that disabling CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER eliminates use of the user helper and the associated delay when the firmware is missing. Patch has been sent to the kernel team mailing list. -- You received this bug notification because

I don't think it makes sense to change this in the 3.16 kernel, which is currently what's being used in vivid. On the surface it makes sense to disable CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER in the 3.18 branch, except that ultimately the vivid kernel will also be released for trusty. In theory things should

So here's what happens: - The intel driver has a list of valid versions, -6, -5, -4, -3; the kernel tries all of them in descending order - It starts with loading -6, which is ENOENT - As we enable CONFIG_FW_LOADER_USER_HELPER, it now tries to call that (with a timeout of 60 seconds); the

Please create /etc/udev/rules.d/50-firmware.rules with SUBSYSTEM==firmware, ACTION==add, RUN=/bin/false and see whether that improves things? To be honest I don't know exactly what the kernel expects from the userspace helper, but it's worth a try. -- You received this bug notification
