** Description changed: This is a variant of bug #1543046; so reporting it separately Looks like thermald does not check for valid cpu model to avoid that spamming: mine is an old intel q9550, and journalctl has logged: *********** thermald[791]: NO RAPL sysfs present - Feb 08 07:16:23 u64 thermald[791]: 10 CPUID levels; family:model:stepping 0x6:17:7 (6:23:7) - Feb 08 07:16:23 u64 thermald[791]: Need Linux PowerCap sysfs - Feb 08 07:16:23 u64 thermald[791]: failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel - Feb 08 07:16:23 u64 thermald[791]: failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel - Feb 08 07:16:23 u64 thermald[791]: TRT/ART read failed + 10 CPUID levels; family:model:stepping 0x6:17:7 (6:23:7) + Need Linux PowerCap sysfs + failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel + failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel + TRT/ART read failed ... ... Unsupported cpu model, use thermal-conf.xml file or run with --ignore-cpuid-check THD engine start failed ************* So thermal-conf.xml might be completed to blacklist some incompatible hardware i suppose. As the spamming lines were hundreds, i've stopped it with: - sudo systemctl disable thermald + sudo systemctl disable thermald but this is not enough as shown by the lines above. - --- + --- ApportVersion: 2.19.4-0ubuntu2 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: GNOME DistroRelease: Ubuntu 16.04 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_uvm nvidia Package: thermald 1.4.3-6 PackageArchitecture: amd64 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 4.4.0-4.19-generic 4.4.1 Tags: xenial Uname: Linux 4.4.0-4-generic x86_64 UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) UserGroups: adm cdrom dip lpadmin plugdev sambashare sudo _MarkForUpload: True upstart.thermald.override: manual -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1543109 Title: [xenial] thermald flooding journalctl on unsupported cpu system To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thermald/+bug/1543109/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
