Memory is exhausted error when trying to run kernel from upstream sources

2023-12-21 Thread Julian Groß

Hello,

I am unsure if this is the right place to ask.
I am trying to build the upstream mainline kernel (6.7-rc6) as 
instructed at https://wiki.debian.org/BuildingKernelFromUpstreamSources 
for troubleshooting purposes.
The build and installation were successful, but when I try to boot the 
kernel, I get an error stating that my memory (RAM) is exhausted. My 
system has 64 GB of RAM, so that seems unlikely.
Here are a picture of the error message (in German) and my kernel 
.config: https://data.moto9000.moe/m/IMG_20231219_145904_1.jpg

Bug#1028309: linux-image-6.0.0-6-amd64: Regression in Kernel 6.0: System partially freezes with "nvme controller is down"

2023-01-12 Thread Julian Groß
My computer just froze on Kernel version 5.19.11-1. Though nothing got 
logged.
Now I don't know if this is the same issue and newer kernels just behave 
better in terms of logging, or if this is a different issue..


I guess I will add a second screen to my computer, open journalctl on 
there, and point a camera at it to capture the issue.


I am pretty sure that I have had it not log on a 6.0 Kernel as well, but 
since I have been troubleshooting this for weeks now I am not completely 
sure.

The way I understand the `git bisect`, and with the issue taking 
sometimes days to happen, I will be sitting on this for months by the way.


What happens if I give `git bisect` a false “good”?
Because it is perfectly possible that my computer will run fine for 48 
hours; I will tell git bisect that the revision is good; But the issue 
actually didn't trigger just by chance, instead of it not being in the 
revision.

Thanks for your help.

Version 6.1.4-1 shows the same issue.

I will try 6.0~rc7-1~exp1 next.

Bug#1023631: firmware-misc-nonfree: Possibly missing firmware for Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z PCIe sound card

2022-11-07 Thread Julian Groß
Package: firmware-misc-nonfree
Version: 20221012-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I have been running into weird behaviour on my Creative Labs Sound Blaster Z 
(Serial number either SB1500 or SB1502).
Just now I noticed that a seemingly related firmware file doesn't get loaded.
Here is a section out of dmesg:

[9.591329] snd_hda_intel :02:00.0: firmware: failed to load 
ctefx-desktop.bin (-2)
[9.591355] firmware_class: See https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware for 
information about missing firmware
[9.591387] snd_hda_intel :02:00.0: firmware: failed to load 
ctefx-desktop.bin (-2)
[9.591409] snd_hda_intel :02:00.0: Direct firmware load for 
ctefx-desktop.bin failed with error -2
[9.592599] snd_hda_intel :02:00.0: firmware: direct-loading firmware 
ctefx.bin

ctefx-desktop.bin shows up in the list of firmware that is supposed to be 
included in Debian. https://wiki.debian.org/Firmware/List

While the driver seems to load a different firmware file, and the sound card 
works most of the time, the identification in lspci seems wrong, and there is 
random issues like no audio output until reboot, "electric" audio output until 
reboot, no audio input until reboot, settings needing to be applied multiple 
times, and alsactl store failing.
lspci reports a "Subsystem: Creative Labs SB1570 SB Audigy Fx", while this card 
is from a different series and looks completely different from it.
Not knowing much about this sort of thing, I am assuming the driver is falling 
back to the firmware for a different sound card, which might be causing a bunch 
of my issues.
