I suspect this is possibly same as #966846. If so this was fixed in
4.19.134 upstream but followup commits were needed as up to commits in
4.19.140 upstream. 

Would you be able to test 4.19.142?

An upstream patch [0] that suppresses this (harmless) error message
was merged in v5.9-rc1 [1] and should be available in 5.9 and later
kernels.

As a "workaround" (if the error message bothers you), you may set the
iwlwifi module's "enable_ini" parameter to false (e.g., "N"). This
will disable the (attempted) loading of the "iwl-debug-yoyo.bin" file
-- which fails, obviously, causing this error to be generated.

Bug#966703: linux-image-4.19.0-10-amd64: kworker process with permanent high CPU load

Hi Dirk,

Thanks for testing that.

Unfortunately I suspect this indicates either a HW fault or a HW
design error as stated in the found kernel-thread which was just
uncovered by the mentioned kernel fix (which we temporarily reverted
with the patch). I can try to ask Alan Stern.

There might be a workaround workarble for you, the issue should
disapear if you prevent the system to automatically try to suspend
usb2 root hub (but you have the same on usb1 root hub).

# echo on >/sys/bus/usb/devices/usb2/power/control

will do that for the usb2 root hub.

Salvatore



Bug#966703: linux-image-4.19.0-10-amd64: kworker process with permanent high CPU load

2020-08-29 Thread Dirk Kostrewa

Hi Salvatore,

I have enabled the verbose debugging mode on the command line and have 
appended the first 5000 lines of the dmesg output to this e-mail, 
running the current kernel from the Buster backports with the two 
kworker processes with high CPU load present.


After that, I have applied your patch to this kernel and rebooted with 
the patched kernel:


5.7.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 5.7.10-1~bpo10+1a~test (2020-08-28) 
x86_64 GNU/Linux


With your patch applied, the two kworker processes with high CPU load 
completely disappeared!

Hi Salvatore,

I just found out, that if none of the two USB ports is connected, there are
two kworker processes with permanently high CPU load, if one USB port is
connected and the other not, there is one such kworker process, and if both
USB ports are connected, there is no kworker process with high CPU load.
I think, this supports your suspicion that these kworker processes are
connected with the overcurrent condition for both USB ports that I also see
in the dmesg output.
What puzzles me, is that I've observed these oddly behaving kworker
processes also with the 5.6 kernel that I've tried from the Buster Backports
repository.

The kernel parameter variant did not work correctly as there are no
dynamic debug output afaics (the double quotes seem to placed in the
wrong place), please just try the setting at runtime instead:

# echo 'file drivers/usb/* +p;' > /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control

What I was meaning is (and this is confirmed if you see the issue
issue as well with the more recent kernels), that the specified commit
actually uncovers the issue present possibly with the HW.

Similarly to you someone else, where in known case with faulty HW,
reported the following issue upstream:

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200720083956.ga4...@dhcp22.suse.cz/

I would like to see if we can collect as much information as possible
and possibly crosscheck with upstream.

If build the kernel with the attached patch (that is with the commit
wich is supsected to uncover the issue), does then the issue goes
away?

You can folllow the quide in
https://kernel-team.pages.debian.net/kernel-handbook/ch-common-tasks.html#s4.2.2
for the "simple patching and building" and quickly chekcing a patch.

Regards,
Salvatore
