[Patch] kenvctrld causes very high cpu load
Hi!
I recently got a Sun Blade 1000.
I encountered the same problem described at
http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=297474
The mentioned solution (removing the msleep) and switch to polling mode
is imho no good option.
Problem:
kthread kenvctrld calls wait_for_pin(), attaches itself to the
wait_queue and sets itself INTERRUPTIBLE (unneccesary because
msleep_interruptible does the same). Then it checks if the i2c-query is
already done. Usually this is not the case at first check.
Then kenvctrl calles msleep_interruptible(250). Usually 1 or 2 ms later
the i2c-bus signals by interrupt that the desired operation is done.
The interrupt-handler wakes up all tasks in the wq.
Know kenvctrld is reset to TASK_RUNNING and does about 248 ms sleeping
at kernel priority :-(
the patch attached will switch this to wait_event_interruptible_timeout.
It might be possible to change this line:
if ((val != -ERESTARTSYS) (val 0)) {
to
if (val 0) {
but I was not sure if I can rely on errror codes 0
Please check this patch since I do not know exactly how to proceed.

Walt,
I had the same problem a few days ago. There are erros at your

Small problem; I am not getting a silo prompt. The prompt I get is: {0} ok.
I believe the silo prompt will say boot. I did the boot 2/boot/vmlinuz
you
indicated below. I also tried variations of it, ie: boot 1/boot/vmlinuz. No
help! The lines below is what I got each time. (The first line is what I
entered at the prompt.)
{0} ok boot 2/boot/vmlinuz
Boot device: /sbus/SUNW, [EMAIL PROTECTED],880/[EMAIL PROTECTED],0 File
and args: boot 2/boot/
vmlinuz
The file just loaded does not appear to be executable.
{0} ok
it seems that silo is not or not correctly installed into the bootblock
of your boot-device.
your boot device seems to be /sbus/SUNW, [EMAIL PROTECTED],880/[EMAIL
PROTECTED],0
verify by
{0} ok printenv boot-device
and maybe
{0} ok devalias first alias from the command above
you could try to boot the rescue system from cd and pass the right
root-device to the kernel.
ie:
{0} ok boot cdrom
and at silo prompt:
boot: rescue root=/dev/sd...
then your system should boot.
fix /etc/silo.conf and rerun silo
Is there any other possibilities??
What disks are in the machine?
Whats your partition layout?
whats your silo.conf?
FYI: I downloaded Solaris 10 tried to load only to have the install tell
me that my UltraSPARC I processors are supported by this release
by the release of Solaris. Great more wasted CDs.
First, you must know where are your vmlinuz files. Here the full
path is:
2/boot/vmlinuz
At silo, do:
boot 2/boot/vmlinuz
It should work.
My silo.conf looks like:
partition=2
root=/dev/sda2
timeout=10
read-only
default=linux
image=/vmlinuz
label=linux
root=/dev/sda2
# initrd=/initrd.img
image=/vmlinuz-2.4
label=linuxOK
root=/dev/sda2
image=/vmlinuz-2.6-smp
label=linux-2.6-smp
root=/dev/sda2
# initrd=/initrd.old
image=/vmlinuz-2.6-1proc
label=linux-2.6-1proc
root=/dev/sda2
The trick is to configure root= in each image.
It works for me.
Hope it helps.

showstoppers when moving from kernel 2.4 to 2.6
Hi, I have two issues after switching from kernel 2.4.x to 2.6.x First: Keymap. this issue is known, http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=269405 For 2.6 a workaround is not to load any keymap. 2.4 I was not able to test due to because I ran into a problem with the silo.conf (http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=282965) but I will test tomorrow. Second: Problem with afbinit, which is needed to use AFB-based graphics adaptor. /etc/init.d/afbinit tries to parse the output of dmesg to determin which devices needs to be initialized. 2.4: has this output: fb0: Elite 3D at 01fc type 39 DAC 0 2.6: ffb: AFB at 01fc type 39 DAC 10 /etc/init.d/afbinit is looking for Elite 3D which is no longer reported by 2.6. ok can be worked around, but 2.6 does no longer report the devicename (fb0 in this example).

Keyboard-Problems with kernel 2.6 and my Ultra60 solved

After searching a lot and even more kernel building I know now that is absolutly neccessary to set CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNSU=y The sun keyboard connection a serial one and the the su driver is needed to use it. Additionally I had to tell console-data to keep the kernels keymap. every other setting leads to an unusable keyboard. one problem remaining: if I start X I cannot switch back to the console by pressing ctrl-alt-f[1-6], does anyone know this issue? -- Jörg Friedrich There are only 10 types of people: Those who understand binary and those who don't.

d-i: sparc64 problems: a summary
Hi, Today I tried with the help of joshk to use the cdimages on sparc64 (aka UltraSparc) For testing I pulled the cdrom-core-modules-2.4.24-sparc64 into pkglists/netboot/sparc64.cfg, because miniiso is build with this flavour and I want to test loading the cdmodules. The initrd then is now a bit to large. (default ramdisk-size is 4MB). but ramdisk_size=8192 at silo prompt help. so I was able to boot with this: 'linux root=/dev/rd/0 devfs=mount,dall rw ramdisk_size=8192 \ debian-installer/framebuffer=false' (Disabled framebuffer because UPA/SBUS-Framebuffer are not supported) Problem: modprobe -v any-module fails because busybox does not support biarch (see #231606) I rebuild d-i miniiso with modutils-basic into the initrd. modprobe -v fails with 'no such module' but insmod works I don't know why. modprobe -c looks right and modprobe -l lists all modules I hope this helps. -- Jörg Friedrich

I think I did something wrong in kernel-config, but I don't find the problem. config attached. -- Jörg Friedrich # # Automatically generated make config: don't edit # CONFIG_64BIT=y CONFIG_MMU=y # # Code maturity level options # CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL=y # CONFIG_CLEAN_COMPILE is not set # CONFIG_STANDALONE is not set CONFIG_BROKEN=y CONFIG_BROKEN_ON_SMP=y # # General setup # CONFIG_SWAP=y CONFIG_SYSVIPC=y CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT=y CONFIG_SYSCTL=y CONFIG_LOG_BUF_SHIFT=15 CONFIG_HOTPLUG=y CONFIG_IKCONFIG=y CONFIG_IKCONFIG_PROC=y # CONFIG_EMBEDDED is not set CONFIG_KALLSYMS=y CONFIG_FUTEX=y CONFIG_EPOLL=y CONFIG_IOSCHED_NOOP=y CONFIG_IOSCHED_AS=y CONFIG_IOSCHED_DEADLINE=y # CONFIG_CC_OPTIMIZE_FOR_SIZE is not set # # Loadable module support # CONFIG_MODULES=y CONFIG_MODULE_UNLOAD=y # CONFIG_MODULE_FORCE_UNLOAD is not set CONFIG_OBSOLETE_MODPARM=y # CONFIG_MODVERSIONS is not set CONFIG_KMOD=y CONFIG_STOP_MACHINE=y # # General setup # # CONFIG_BBC_I2C is not set CONFIG_VT=y CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_SMP=y CONFIG_PREEMPT=y CONFIG_NR_CPUS=8 # CONFIG_CPU_FREQ is not set CONFIG_SPARC64=y CONFIG_RWSEM_XCHGADD_ALGORITHM=y CONFIG_GENERIC_ISA_DMA=y CONFIG_SBUS=y CONFIG_SBUSCHAR=y CONFIG_SUN_AUXIO=y CONFIG_SUN_IO=y CONFIG_PCI=y CONFIG_PCI_DOMAINS=y CONFIG_RTC=y # CONFIG_PCI_LEGACY_PROC is not set CONFIG_PCI_NAMES=y CONFIG_SUN_OPENPROMFS=y CONFIG_SPARC32_COMPAT=y CONFIG_COMPAT=y CONFIG_UID16=y CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF32=y # CONFIG_BINFMT_AOUT32 is not set CONFIG_BINFMT_ELF=y # CONFIG_BINFMT_MISC is not set # CONFIG_SUNOS_EMUL is not set # CONFIG_SOLARIS_EMUL is not set # # Parallel port support # # CONFIG_PARPORT is not set CONFIG_ENVCTRL=y # CONFIG_DISPLAY7SEG is not set # CONFIG_CMDLINE_BOOL is not set # # Generic Driver Options # CONFIG_FW_LOADER=m # # Graphics support # CONFIG_FB=y # CONFIG_FB_CIRRUS is not set # CONFIG_FB_PM2 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CYBER2000 is not set # CONFIG_FB_IMSTT is not set # CONFIG_FB_BW2 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CG3 is not set # CONFIG_FB_CG6 is not set # CONFIG_FB_RIVA is not set # CONFIG_FB_MATROX is not set # CONFIG_FB_RADEON_OLD is not set # CONFIG_FB_RADEON is not set # CONFIG_FB_ATY128 is not set # CONFIG_FB_ATY is not set # CONFIG_FB_SIS is not set # CONFIG_FB_NEOMAGIC is not set # CONFIG_FB_KYRO is not set # CONFIG_FB_3DFX is not set # CONFIG_FB_VOODOO1 is not set # CONFIG_FB_TRIDENT is not set # CONFIG_FB_PM3 is not set CONFIG_FB_SBUS=y CONFIG_FB_FFB=y # CONFIG_FB_TCX is not set # CONFIG_FB_CG14 is not set # CONFIG_FB_P9100 is not set # CONFIG_FB_LEO is not set # CONFIG_FB_PCI is not set # CONFIG_FB_VIRTUAL is not set # # Console display driver support # # CONFIG_MDA_CONSOLE is not set CONFIG_PROM_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_FRAMEBUFFER_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_PCI_CONSOLE=y # CONFIG_FONTS is not set CONFIG_FONT_SUN8x16=y # CONFIG_FONT_SUN12x22 is not set # # Logo configuration # # CONFIG_LOGO is not set # # Serial drivers # # CONFIG_SERIAL_8250 is not set # # Non-8250 serial port support # CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNCORE=y # CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNZILOG is not set # CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNSU is not set CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNSAB=y CONFIG_SERIAL_SUNSAB_CONSOLE=y CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE=y CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE=y # # Misc Linux/SPARC drivers # CONFIG_SUN_OPENPROMIO=y CONFIG_SUN_MOSTEK_RTC=m CONFIG_OBP_FLASH=m CONFIG_SUN_BPP=m # CONFIG_SUN_VIDEOPIX is not set # CONFIG_SUN_AURORA is not set # # Memory Technology Devices (MTD) # # CONFIG_MTD is not set # # Block devices # # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_FD is not set # CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_DA is not set # CONFIG_BLK_CPQ_CISS_DA is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DAC960 is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_UMEM is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP=y # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CRYPTOLOOP is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NBD is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_CARMEL is not set # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM is not set # # ATA/ATAPI/MFM/RLL support # # CONFIG_IDE is not set # # SCSI device support # CONFIG_SCSI=y CONFIG_SCSI_PROC_FS=y # # SCSI support type (disk, tape, CD-ROM) # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y CONFIG_CHR_DEV_ST=m # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_OSST is not set CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=m # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR_VENDOR is not set CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SG=y # CONFIG_CHR_DEV_SCH is not set # # Some SCSI devices (e.g. CD jukebox) support multiple LUNs # CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y CONFIG_SCSI_REPORT_LUNS=y CONFIG_SCSI_CONSTANTS=y CONFIG_SCSI_LOGGING=y # # SCSI Transport Attributes # # CONFIG_SCSI_SPI_ATTRS is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_FC_ATTRS is not set # # SCSI low-level drivers # # CONFIG_BLK_DEV_3W__RAID is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_ACARD is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_AACRAID is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_AIC7XXX_OLD is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_AIC79XX is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_ADVANSYS is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_MEGARAID is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_SATA is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_BUSLOGIC is not set # CONFIG_SCSI_CPQFCTS is not set #

Problems with Kernel 2.6.5 and xserver, sorry wrong subject [was: serial-console]

New to Debian-Sparc
Hi, this are my first steps running linux on a sparc-machine. A few days ago I bought a used Ultra60 at Ebay. After installing Solaris on the first disk, I want to try linux now. First, the machine has 2 450-Mhz-Ultrasparc cpus, 2 GB ram and 2 9.1-GB harddisks. Yesterday I tried to install Debian 3.0r2. (I wanted to test d-i, but the cdimages don't have any kernel module in the initrd, so no installation possible, see bug #243457) I partitioned the second disk and installed woody straight forward. The problem was 'Making the system bootable', I just selected yes, rebooted and nothing happened. I booted the rescue system, read silo documentation, had no idea what was wrong. It was an error at layer 8 (sitting in front of the screen) :-). I tried to 'boot disk2' instead of 'boot disk1' for the second disk. But one question remains, I didn't find any hint in which place silo will be installed, and can I change it? After this adventure I think it will be installed in the boot block of the disk '/boot'-Partition is on. Is this right? Now I was able to complete my install and upgrade to unstable :-) then I wanted to compile a custom kernel. I wanted to use menuconfig. after installing lib64ncurses* menuconfig compiled but it always hangs after parsing the .config. I don't know why. and xconfig has a problem with tkparse. I tried kernel-source 2.4.25 and 2.6.5, both transcripts attached. Can anyone help? btw. can I use these kernels on a ultrasparc? and I discovered another problem, I cannot run 'top'. I always get top: failed /proc/stat read -- thanks Jörg Friedrich
