Bug#383582: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686: suspend doesn't work with 2.6.17

2006-08-18 Thread Jason Martens
Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
Version: 2.6.17-6
Severity: normal

I upgraded from linux-image-2.6.16-2-686 to linux-image-2.6.17-2-686,
and suspend no longer works on my Dell Latitude X1 using echo -n mem 
/sys/power/state.  It worked great with 2.6.16-2-686.

I could test it. Where can I find the firmware files? I asume they were

I've never used a driver with external firmware before. Anything special

Bug#383600: behaviour of update-initramfs -u has changed, only updates latest kernel initrd

2006-08-18 Thread Michael Biebl
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.74
Severity: important

I can't pinpoint the exact release but the behaviour of 
update-initramfs -u has changed recently. update-initramsfs -u is
used in several postinst scripts and formerly updated the initrd of all
installed kernels. The new behaviour is, to only update the initrd of
the latest instlled kernel, which is wrong imho.
E.g. you have kernel 2.6.16 and 2.6.17 installed and you are currently
running 2.6.16, update-initramfs -u will only update the 2.6.17
initrd.
I suggest to revert to the old behaviour and make -u update all
installed kernels. Atm I have to specify each kernel separately vi -k to
update them all.

Cheers,
Michael

Why should one update _all_ initramfs images when beeing interested in

 Why should one update _all_ initramfs images when beeing interested in

Why should I be only interested in only a single one? If I install e.g.
the uswsusp package (which has to update the initrd because it has to
install a resume binary there) I'd expect the package to work with all
kernels I have installed not only a single one.
In addition only the newest kernel installed is updated, which is very
confusing imho. If it all, it should update the initrd of the currently
running kernel.

 This also increases the risk for breaking ALL WORKING
 initramfs images in the case where a new bug in initramfs-tools appears.

As you already said, if it's a bug in initramfs-tools, it should be
fixed there and not prevent update-initramfs from doing the right thing.
It won't help you anyways if you have only one kernel installed.
And your argument can actually be held against you: what if an update of
initramfs-tools fixes a (grave/security related) bug. Wouldn't you
expect that all installed kernels are updated accordingly. I don't think
normal users will know that they have to run update-initramfs -u -k
1.2.3 for all installed kernel versions. We can't expect that more
unexperienced users will have to do that manually.
So this is even a security related issue.

 I recommend closing this bug report unless you provide a good
 explanation.

I strongly oppose.

well for debian we prefer the conservative default to ship
the newest and greatest only in the newest one.
and even this is sometimes questioned see #358397 or #382808

if the user wants to do it, he can do it by hand:
update-initramfs -u -k all

that will update all the initramfs that initramfs-tools generated.
although i would not recommed that for udev 0.097-1

There you are again putting words in my mouth i never said. Independently of
what you think or say, stay polite about it, especially to outsiders like
larry.

Also, the social contract says clearly that :

  1) we care about our users *AND* free software.
  2) we have created the non-free section to put non-free software in it that
  may be needed for our users.

What else do you want ? 

  polite, reread the social contract, and abide by what you agreed to when you
  joined debian.
 When I joined Debian we cared about free software. Not free firmwares.

and in what world do you live where you could even start to imagine that the
firmwares are not software ? They clearly are not hardware, since you cannot
directly touch them.

Also, i think all of you are taking the wrong discourse, and there is no way
you can be right.

You should instead try the following discourse :

  1) The firmware in question (those that are not plain register dumps) are
  indeed non-free, since they are clearly software, often assembly software,
  compiled with some assembler tool, and we lack sources for them (but someone
  has said source, or at least had it at some time point.

  2) But we argue that we should still distribute it in main, for reason such
  and such.

Among those reason, there are a few which come to my mind out of hand :

  1) We consider firmware as being part of the hardware, not really the
  software.

  2) If we consider a hardware piece which needs an uploadable firmware, even
  if the firmware in question is non-free, it is still globally more free than
  an equivalent piece of hardware where all is hardcoded in silicon.

And so on, it is always better to be honest and true to oneself, than to try
to argue obvious wrong stuff, like you have been doing, and furthermore,
seeing that there is no way you can honestly defend your point, and you know
that inside yourself, so you ressort to vulgarities and barkings to get your
point accross.

Please meditate on this one, and then come back to this discussion with an
open and honest mind, and it will be much more fruitful.

Friendly,

Sven Luther

if you install from sarge you want that the hooks work for the new one.
the wrong order of the update-initramfs was a big upgrade trouble

not eager to repeat that here.

 Why should I be only interested in only a single one? If I install e.g.

Because usualy it gets executed when you install a kernel-image package?

 the uswsusp package (which has to update the initrd because it has to
 install a resume binary there) I'd expect the package to work with all
 kernels I have installed not only a single one.

That's orthogonal to the regular usage of mkinitramfs. uswsusp package
is the right one to add a call to update ALL initrds.

 In addition only the newest kernel installed is updated, which is very
 confusing imho. If it all, it should update the initrd of the currently
 running kernel.

Does not confuse me at all. The package beeing installed cares about its
own setup. Not more, not less. No need to touch non-involved packges.

  This also increases the risk for breaking ALL WORKING
  initramfs images in the case where a new bug in initramfs-tools appears.

Don't reintepret my statements to something you like. Risk for a fact

with an upgraded version, then it could and should be executed for all
initrds.

You are certainly free to do so. And experience (the hard way, rather

 With some people there is no other way around, see how long and how
 many repetitions it took you to take the RC bug seriously ?

Wrong. New info caused new action.

Your whining has the opposite effect: Your wrapping of valuable info in
big chunks of whining and repetitive noise risk not even noticing your

 If  you want i can send 2 parts of the messages file , the first when i boot
 from the linux-image 2.6.15 where the USB Keybord is recognized and the second
 when i boot from a linux image 2.6.16 or 17 , do you think it could be useful 
 ?
 
 Thanks a lot for looking to this problem

as thought please keep your system up2date before reporting bugs.
this long fixed in testing with 0.093-1
you need to upgrade to this.

although i wouldn't recommend current udev 0.097-1 in unstable
hope it's trouble will be fixed soon.

Bug#383629: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686: ipw2200 module cannot load its firmware

 The ipw2200 firmware 3.0  is installed in /lib/firmware and it was
 working with linux-image-2.6.17-1-686.

More clues:
I'm using udev 0.097-1 and firmware is loaded if you follow these two steps:
apt-get install --reinstall linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
apt-get install --reinstall udev

It may be an udev bug more than a linux-image bug.

Package: installation
Version: Etch Beta 3

Following installation of Etch, using the Beta 3 installer (netinst CD 
image), installation runs to completion without error, on reboot, grub 
appears fine, and the kernel loads, but during boot hangs with something 
like waiting for root filesystem.  The root partition is on a Mylex 
DAC960PRL RAID controller, and there is no sign of the relevant module 
being loaded during boot.


PCI vendor ID for the device is: 0x1069
PCI device ID for the device is: 0x0010

I presume the problem lies in the initramfs, but I can't easily get into 
the system to dig around further...


grub boot options are:

kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-686  root=/dev/rd!c0d0p2 ro
initrd /boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-686

Package: initramfs-tools
Severity: wishlist
Tags: patch

Here is a patch that adds a new configuration variable PANIC_SHELL
that, when set to no (not the default), disables the fallback to a
shell on panic. (Instead it makes init exit, and thus generates a
kernel panic.)

This is meant to be one link in a chain to secure a system as much as
convenient:

 - Configure the BIOS to boot only from the hard drive
 - Configure the boot loader not to let the user change boot
   parameters
 - This step: The boot process does not give a root shell to the
   user, ever.

Bug#380272: kernel-image-2.6-686-smp: cpqarray module fails to detect arrays

2006-08-18 Thread Joshua Rubin
Hi Maks,

I can confirm that removing floppy from /etc/initramfs-tools/modules (which 
still causes a non-bootable system) and inserting cpqarray (which is the only 
uncommented module in /etc/initramfs-tools/modules) does in fact allow the 
system to boot.

I have attached the dmesg and lsmod.

Thanks again,
Joshua Rubin

Bug#380272: kernel-image-2.6-686-smp: cpqarray module fails to detect arrays

2006-08-18 Thread Joshua Rubin
Hi Maks,

I have confirmed that loading cpqarray first fixes the problem on several 
systems now. I have also realized that when this is the case, the sym53c8xx 
driver is not needed or loaded. I thought this was noteworthy. It appears 
that your presumption was correct that the sym53c8xx and cpqarray modules do 
not play nicely.

Is this something that can be handled in the initramfs automatically instead 
of forcing everyone running these systems to update 
their /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file?

Thanks again!!!
Joshua

ok, that pinpoints the coupable

quickly scanning

please test 2.6.17 from unstable.

is it reporducible there?

2006-08-18 Thread Kyle McMartin
Hello Joshua,

On Fri, Aug 18, 2006 at 09:59:16AM -0600, Joshua Rubin wrote:

 not play nicely.
 

The problem is because they both claim support for the same PCI Ids:

cpqarray.c,
static const struct pci_device_id cpqarray_pci_device_id[] =
{

{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_NCR, PCI_DEVICE_ID_NCR_53C1510,
0x0E11, 0x4048, 0, 0, 0},   /* LC2 */
{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_NCR, PCI_DEVICE_ID_NCR_53C1510,
0x0E11, 0x4040, 0, 0, 0},  /* Integrated Array */

};

and sym53c8xx_2/sym_glue.c,
static struct pci_device_id sym2_id_table[] __devinitdata = {

{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_LSI_LOGIC, PCI_DEVICE_ID_LSI_53C1510,
  PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0UL },

{ PCI_VENDOR_ID_LSI_LOGIC, PCI_DEVICE_ID_NCR_53C1510,
  PCI_ANY_ID, PCI_ANY_ID, 0, 0, 0UL }, /* new */

};

More correctly, the problem is because sym2 is claiming support
for all devices with these PCI device/vendor id.

Can we get the output of lspci -v output from your machine?

If LSI was kind, the PCI class might be different between the two,
or some other clue might be there to differentiate them.

 Is this something that can be handled in the initramfs automatically instead 
 of forcing everyone running these systems to update 
 their /etc/initramfs-tools/modules file?

The easiest thing to do from the initramfs point of view is to simply
load cpqarray in preference to sym53c8xx.

Kyle M.

 I suggest to revert to the old behaviour and make -u update all

 update them all.
 Why should one update _all_ initramfs images when beeing interested in
 only single one? 
 Why should I be only interested in only a single one? If I install e.g.
 
 Because usualy it gets executed when you install a kernel-image package?

Just grep for update-initramfs  in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst.
I get uswsusp, cryptsetup, mdadm and udev on my machine.
They all simply call update-initramfs -u.
This means that security updates of these packages are not automatically
applied to all installed kernels which is a major security issue imho.
If you insist that update-initramfs -u only updates the latest kernel,
you should file bug reports against all packages using update-initramfs -u.

when i boot from a linux image 2.6.16 or 17 , do you think it could be useful ?

Thanks a lot for looking to this problem



as thought please keep your system up2date before reporting bugs.
this long fixed in testing with 0.093-1
you need to upgrade to this.

although i wouldn't recommend current udev 0.097-1 in unstable
hope it's trouble will be fixed soon.

 m68k Beta3 still uses 2.2. 2.2 kernel source can only be removed _after_ 
 D-I RC1 because it is still used in testing.

I'm not sure why that should matter.  m68k isn't a release candidate arch
right now, and 2.2 isn't going to be used for etch no matter what.

But please don't reassign RC bugs to ftp.d.o, please *clone* them instead;
we don't want RC-buggy packages leaking back into testing unnecessarily.

 Any chance this is another incarnation of the now infamous

Why another incarnation - isn't it simply the same old problem? It
looks like a kernel with the problematic Debian-specific patch applied,
no?

 Sven,
   How could Radek confirm this for us?

Err, this was addressed at the list, since i don't remember all the details of
it, and as powerpc didn't even build ide-generic, i was hardly affected.

 You are certainly free to do so. And experience (the hard way, rather
 than just by being told) the consequences of such behaviour.
 
 
  With some people there is no other way around, see how long and how
  many repetitions it took you to take the RC bug seriously ?
 
 Wrong. New info caused new action.
 
 Your whining has the opposite effect: Your wrapping of valuable info in
 big chunks of whining and repetitive noise risk not even noticing your
 contributions!

yeah, as opposed to you explaining me in a very strong tone, which i was
seriously afraid would degenerate into a RL fist-fight if i persisted, that you
should not even look with me at the bug and investigate in erkelenz, right ? 

It was at that time that i decided that there will be no way i will continue
to support yaird as long as you are the main maintainer, because you cannot be
thrusthed to fix bugs in a timely fashion.

And the info was not new, i had pointed this selfsame thing already in
november, but nobody apart me chose to take action and look at the info, while
it was your jobs as ramdisk-generator maintainers.

 Why another incarnation - isn't it simply the same old problem? It
 looks like a kernel with the problematic Debian-specific patch applied,
 no?

This report is another manifestation of the same ide-generic bug ?

Would this new rephrasing satisfy you, and at the same time respond to your
question ?

Anyway, thanks for confirming my feelings about this.

  I suggest to revert to the old behaviour and make -u update all
  installed kernels. Atm I have to specify each kernel separately vi -k to
  update them all.
  Why should one update _all_ initramfs images when beeing interested in
  only single one? 
  Why should I be only interested in only a single one? If I install e.g.
  
  Because usualy it gets executed when you install a kernel-image package?
 
 Just grep for update-initramfs  in /var/lib/dpkg/info/*.postinst.
 I get uswsusp, cryptsetup, mdadm and udev on my machine.
 They all simply call update-initramfs -u.
 This means that security updates of these packages are not automatically
 applied to all installed kernels which is a major security issue imho.
 If you insist that update-initramfs -u only updates the latest kernel,
 you should file bug reports against all packages using update-initramfs -u.

or better yet, make the behaviour configurable, in a system wide debconf
setting for example :)

Could someone help me recover my tg3 patch?

2006-08-18 Thread Nathanael Nerode
I lost my copy.

If someone could point me to the last version of Debian's Linux kernel package
which shipped with the tg3 firmware loading patch -- I'm not sure which version
it was and I can't seem to figure it out -- I would greatly appreciate it.
(Heck, if you just sent me a copy of the most recent version of the patch, I 
would
greatly appreciate it.)

Thanks in advance.

Bugs merged and assigned to linux-2.6.

I think the kernel pseudo-package is mostly obsolete: it should be
reserved for bugs affecting multiple kernels.  This bug doesn't affect
freebsd, hurd, etc.  It does affect linux-2.4 and linux-2.2, but those are
scheduled for removal before etch anyway.

So actually, I'd like to suggest running through the bugs against 'kernel'
and reassigning them to linux-2.6 or closing them as appropriate.  Does that
seem like a reasonable thing to do when I'm bored and not feeling up to
programming, or would there be some complaint about it.

Broadcom tg3 relicensing alone took over two years.  This is a lovely thing
to do, and I am *very very* impressed with dilinger's diligence and his
success (I tried but failed to contact anyone at Broadcom).  dgrs
and qla2xxx are the only other drivers he had *any* success with,
according to the wiki page.  I am afraid we need a shorter-term solution.

 For each offending file, there are three possible solutions:
 1. Get the author to release source code under a DFSG-free license
 2. Move the firmware to non-free, patching the driver to use
request_firmware()
 3. Delete the driver and firmware entirely.
   4. Move the whole friver to non-free, without major patching.
   5. Reverse engineer the needed firmware, and create a trully free
   driver.
 
 AFAIK, the best outcome yet from the relicensing discussions
 on http://wiki.debian.org/KernelFirmwareLicensing is to properly
 permit the redistribution of the binary, without source code.
 
 Indeed, but even that was laughed at back then when we started at it, and
 you should have seen the reaction of LKML when i mentioned it there.

Not to mention the reaction I originally got from the netdev maintainers,
which was rather more hostile than being 'laughed at'.  I think a lot of
people genuinely believed that you could license an unsourced binary under
the GPL I can't imagine *why* they believed that, though.

snip
 That's fine for debian non-free, and a necessary step for making
 option (2) above work properly.  Until and unless the entire
 Linux kernel is moved to non-free, such relicensing doesn't
 solve the fundamental bug.
 
 Indeed.
 
 I agree that option (3) is bad, but I still recommend it for
 the short term.  It's the quickest path to a legal and
 
 For the short term, 4. is a better solution.
Right.  If a driver really can't build out-of-tree comfortably, (4) may not
be feasible and (3) or (2) may be necessary, but let's cross that bridge if
we come to it.

What can I do to help with (4)?  :-)

 SC-conforming Linux release, and it will bring people out
 of the closet to volunteer to work on (2).  I think (2)
 is the actual goal, but maybe not one that can be finished
 before the proposed etch freeze -- especially since most
 of the blobs need to be relicensed before they can be made
 part of firmware-nonfree.
 
 Indeed, which is because we could also consider :
 
   6. Pass another GR to allow debian/etch to release as is, provided we

If the GR includes a commitment to include a statement regarding this
violation of the SC in the *release notes*, then I would be satisfied with
this from a freeness point of view: at least Debian would be advertising
its failure to live up to the SC.  If there is no such commitment, I would
expect to see the same charade for etch+1.

There's also a problem with Sven's analysis of option (6) relative to
options (4) and (2).

From a legal point of view, distributing the 'undistributable' (mislicensed)
blobs in 'main' and distributing them in 'non-free' is equally bad.  If
it's OK to distribute them in the kernel package, it's OK to distribute
them in 'firmware-nonfree'.

It is up to the ftpmasters, the release team, and or the DPL to decide
whether they are comfortable with it or not.  If they are, then the blobs
can be put in firmware-nonfree and (4) is perfectly straightforward.  If
they are not, then the blobs must be removed from the archive.  (6) offers
no advantage over (4) with regard to this.  (This doesn't affect the
non-free blobs which are properly licensed.)

Bug#383725: linux-image-2.6.16-2-686: cannot halt properly Thinkpad T22

2006-08-18 Thread The Anarcat
Package: linux-image-2.6.16-2-686
Version: 2.6.16-17
Severity: normal

Hello,

I see a clear regression here after upgrading from 2.6.15 to 2.6.16. The
kernel now doesn't shutdown cleanly the power on my laptop, a IBM
Thinkpad T22. It used to work real nice on 2.6.15, but now, the machine
just sits there after the Shutting down drives: sda (probably not the
exact wording, i don't clearly remember, but it's usually the last thing
on the console before the shutdown). I can safely poweroff the machine
by pressing the power key for 5 seconds, but it's a bit annoying.

Usually, i just suspend to disk this machine, using an ugly hack (echo
disk  /sys/power/state). This is also affect in that I need to poweroff
the same way as a shutdown, ie. by pressing the power key. The machine
resumes as normal.

Available for debugging/testing with right tools/instructions...

Bug#383249: usplash: add support for user input

2006-08-18 Thread David Härdeman

I've attached a patch which adds user input support to usplash.

This works by creating a second fifo /dev/.initramfs/usplash_outfifo and 
two new commands: INPUT and INPUTQUIET.


Both INPUT and INPUTQUIET take a prompt as argument. The prompt is 
written to the usplash screen and then one line of user input is read to 
a buffer. If INPUTQUIET has been used, the user input is not echoed to 
screen (but '*').


usplash then waits for a reader to be ready on the outfifo or until the 
timeout time elapses. If a reader is available, the user input is 
written to the fifo from the buffer.


In a initramfs script, something like this would be used:

if [ -p /dev/.initramfs/usplash_outfifo ]; then
usplash_write INPUTQUIET Enter password: 
PASS=$(cat /dev/.initramfs/usplash_outfifo)
else
echo -n Enter password: 
read PASS
echo
fi

I have tried the patch locally with a slightly modified cryptsetup 
initramfs script and it seems to work.


Regards,
David

Bug#383730: initramfs-tools: incompatible with udev 0.097-1

2006-08-18 Thread Vagrant Cascadian
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.75
Severity: important

well, happy to try out the shiny new ltsp packages, it seems like there
may be an incompatibility with initramfs-tools and the new udev:

Begin: Running /scripts/init-premount ... 
FATAL: Error inserting fan 
(/lib/modules/2.6.17-2-486/kernel/drivers/acpi/fan.ko): No such device
FATAL: Error inserting thermal

udevd[769]: lookup_group: error resolving group 'cdrom': Illegal seek
udevd[769]: lookup_group: error resolving group 'tape': Illegal seek

with many more similar lines.

i tested it with udev 0.093-1 from etch, and that seemed to work just
fine.

thanks for all your work on initramfs-tools! :)

oh, you might want to know i booted using:

qemu -hda /dev/zero -m 100 -kernel /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/vmlinuz -initrd \
  /opt/ltsp/i386/boot/initrd.img \
  -nographic \
  -append 'nfsroot=10.0.2.2:/opt/ltsp/i386 root=/dev/nfs ip=dhcp 
console=ttyS0,38400' 


live well,
  vagrant


Versions of packages initramfs-tools depends on:
ii  busybox1.1.3-2Tiny utilities for 
small and embedded systems
ii  cpio   2.6-17 GNU cpio -- a program 
to manage archives of files
ii  klibc-utils1.4.19-1   small

ii  module-init-tools  3.2.2-3tools for managing 
Linux kernel modules
ii  udev   0.097-1/dev/ and hotplug

Bug#383730: initramfs-tools: incompatible with udev 0.097-1

2006-08-18 Thread Nathaniel Pierce
Ditto - udev is calling getpwnam and getgrnam and is failing. I tried  
adding a hook script to copy my /etc/passwd and /etc/group files to  
$DESTROOT/etc, but that did no good. I tried adding /etc/ 
nsswitch.conf as well, but it didn't help either. I'm not sure what  
to try next.


Also, not sure if this is related to udev starting up angrily, but  
kernel.hotplug no longer getting set properly. My firmware for my  
wireless driver (acx) won't load unless I do:
	echo /lib/udev/firmware.agent  /proc/sys/kernel/hotplug (or use  
sysctl)


That may be specific to the udev package.

Running:
initramfs-tools 0.75
udev 0.097-1.
custom kernel pkg 2.6.17.7

cheers,
nate

Can you try the 2.6.17 kernel from sid and see if it improves things?

It certainly show the right symptoms for that.


Sven,
 How could Radek confirm this for us?


Matthew Garrett pointed out on irc (thanks!) that this chipset just does 
not have an appropriate PCI ID listed in the driver. Relevant LKML 
discussion including a patch may be found at


http://lkml.org/lkml/2006/8/11/196

Ubuntu has this patch applied already.

Bug#383743: pointer doesn't work

2006-08-18 Thread Bdale Garbee
Package: linux-image-2.6.17-2-686
Version: 2.6.17-6
Severity: important

Upgrading to this kernel version on my HP nc6220 notebook left me with a
completely non-working pointer in X.  Tried various things, didn't really
learn anything useful before getting frustrated and falling back to a prior
kernel version, which works fine.  Looked like there was no input from the
mouse driver at all, though?
