After commenting out rtcfile upgrading the package again works, so that might at least be a work around. Still I think that this regression should be possible to fix, because 1.21z-5 is not hit.

I don't really know about rtc stuff, but I found out that /dev/rtc is driven by the module rtc_cmos on my system, because the usage count of that module increases on opening the device. hwclock works.

I had problems with /dev/rtc before, sometimes related to HPET which in combination with chrony even froze my system. This kernel bug has been fixed recently. Also I had problems when using the wrong module. Are you sure you use the right one? Does hwclock work for you?

Hallo Michael, > Have you ever tried using the default config? Yes, no change. I also tried to strace chronyd directly. It hangs in a read from filedescriptor 6 which happens to be /dev/rtc according to lsof, so indeed chronyd *is* hung. Hope this helps.

I think what he meant was that this bug we are talking about causes the whole hibernation process to stop, which is quite obvious when /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/chrony hangs for whatever reason.

As I have no laptop I am not familiar with the various hibernation and suspension schemes but the Chrony package includes this script: #!/bin/sh # Placed in /etc/apm/event.d by the chrony package at the instruction of # the apmd maintainer. If you don't have apm and don't intend to install # apmd you may remove it. It needs to run after 00hwclock but before any # other scripts.

Let me mention another observation I should have mentioned before: When I manually start chronyc and then type a command (sourcestats for instance) it keeps waiting forever. I also tried to strace chronyc and I haven't seen syscalls receiving data. > Is it possible for you to upgrade, test and downgrade again?

There may be a problem in the shell script for example or in the package config. After all the password is automatically read from the configs. Is it possible for you to upgrade, test and downgrade again? Please keep in mind that I'm not the maintainer but just looking into some critical bugs in software that I use.

If you want to get an answer I urge you to also contact the submitter (me) by either by ccing me directly or by ccing [EMAIL PROTECTED] Otherwise it is very unlikely that I eventually catch your comment. See #351856. > Given that the whole setup works like a charm for me I think the severity is > too high, thus I downgraded it. From looking at /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/chrony I'd I had to downgrade, because chrony also broke suspend2disk[1], so I could as well have tagged it critical because it affects other applications as well. Still I have to admit that this version also runs on my sid/amd64 machine and works well there. > guess that $PASSWORD is empty for you. Could you please verify? It is not empty. And if it was empty, downgrading would not solve the issue. Any other suggestions? Helmut [1] I use hibernate and restart chrony on wakeup to synchronize with new servers. As chrony does not terminate, hibernate doesn't either and as long as hibernate runs, it will not hibernate again. So hibernate got borked, too. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

severity 504000 important thanks Given that the whole setup works like a charm for me I think the severity is too high, thus I downgraded it. From looking at /etc/ppp/ip-up.d/chrony I'd guess that $PASSWORD is empty for you. Could you please verify?
