Bug#506835: BUG: bad: [58e2a02eb18393e76a469580fedf7caec190eb5e] [SCSI] eata: convert to use the data buffer accessors

2008-12-22 Thread Arthur Marsh
I had a look at the current Debian 2.6.27 source and applied your patch 
manually against it.


It will take me a few hours to compile the new kernel and I should be 
able to test it in about 7 hours time.


Thanks again,

Arthur.

I've recently installed Debian on a PII-266 machine with DPT2044W SCSI 
controller.


Kernels 2.6.18-2.6.22 work fine, and kernels 2.6.23-2.6.27 lock up after 
loading the eata module using modprobe, with the error:


modprobe exited with preempt_count 1

I've run a git bisection and have a few more passes to go, but suspect 
the commit in the subject line,


[58e2a02eb18393e76a469580fedf7caec190eb5e] [SCSI] eata: convert to use 
the data buffer accessors


to be the patch which triggers the problem.

I'm not a C programmer, let alone a kernel programmer, but can build and 
check any suggested patches.


Is anyone successfully using the eata module since the data buffer 
accessors patch?


Is anyone able to examine the code to see if anything was done wrong in 
the data buffer accessors patch?


Sorry about the problem. Can you try this patch?

 If you have a kernel I can try, sure. Building one is another story,
 this machine isn't exactly fast nor quiet, as you probably know...

 you could cross-build upstream kernels, e.g. with my cross-toolchain
 for lenny: http://people.debian.org/~ths/toolchain/

I wish you had it built for amd64 :)

I have a gcc 4.1 cross-compiler set up on another host, so I'm going
to use that. I'm building a stock 2.6.27 kernel ip22_defconfig now. If
that doesn't work, next step is a bisect between 2.6.24 and 2.6.26 on
the linux-mips git tree (is that OK for you Thomas? or should I be
doing something else?)

   The system has a single IDE connector on its motherboard.  Connected to
   this are two DVD burners used for weekly backups.  The first week, both
   drives successfully complete their burn.  The following week, the first
   drive completes its burn, but the second drive stops making progress
   approx 80% of the way through.  So far, this has happened exactly the same
   on both backup attempts, but it is only two data points.  Reproducing the
   problem is also somewhat problematic since it does impact their normal
   production, but I can probably squezze in attempts in a delayed fashion.
   
   The first time this happened, the site person simply reset the machine
   without informing so I have no further data from that event other than
   the problem description.
   
   The second time this happened, I did 'echo t /proc/sysrq-trigger'  Here
   is the stack trace from the offending process.
  
  Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?
 
 It is still occurring with the 2.6.18.dfsg.1-23 version.  I have not
 updated recently, however there is an update planned for middle of
 the week.
 
 Was something just fixed that should have addressed this?

Not in the 2.6.18 kernel (which is mostly updated for security issues), but
since the 4.0r4 point release Debian provides an additional Etch kernel
based on 2.6.24:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/l/linux-2.6.24.html

Thanks, I applied the patch manually against the Debian 2.6.27 kernel 
source at http://kernel-archive.buildserver.net/ and after starting the 
 patched kernel, the eata module loaded successfully. I mounted the 
filesystems on the attached scsi disk and ran ls -alR on all filesystems 
successfully.

Bug#509428: [Pkg-samba-maint] Bug#509428: libsmbclient: System freeze when accessing SAMBA/CIFS share on Network Appliances storage

2008-12-22 Thread Christian Perrier
severity 509428 important
reassign 509428 smbfs
thanks

Quoting vogu00 (vog...@gmail.com):
 Package: libsmbclient

Hmm, this has nothing to do with libsmbclient, rather smbfs


 In our network, there's a network storage (Network Appliances) that I
 mount on all the attached Linux clients via SAMBA or CIFS. Since 2 years,
 this works without any problems.
 
 I recently did some tests with Debian Lenny. In the beginning, everything
 went fine. Since an upgrade to Lenny (approx. 3 weeks ago), I have some very
 bad effects: Mounting the NetApp share is ok, but when changing
 to a directory below the mountpoint, the system quickly crashes or freezes.
 
 The directory in which one I change has some 250 directory entries. In the
 few cases, where the system doesn't crash and where I can do an ls, the
 result only shows some 145 of the 250 directories.
 
 As I told, the system normally freezes. It does this nearly every time when
 entering cd followed by TAB (for bash completion). In that case, nothing
 works any longer, not the mouse nor the keyboard. Remote ssh shells cannot
 be opened, the system can even not be pinged any longer; I have todo a reset 
 (causing data loss for all opened applications).
 
 I do not use any special mount options, just
mount.cifs //myserver/share /mnt/xxx
 or
mount.smbfs ...
 
 I can easily reproduce the problem on
  - Debian Lenny (since I updated it +- 3 weeks ago; before that update, there
  was no problem)
  - Ubuntu 8.10
  - Xubuntu 8.10
  
 The problem does not appear on
  - Debian Etch
  - Ubuntu 8.04
 
 I made my tests on 5 different PCs and also on some virtual machines. The 
 results
 are the same everywhere.
 
 I am not sure if it really is a libsmbclient bug. It might be as well
 somewhere else in Samba.


Bug #264943 in Launchpad, for Ubuntu 8.10, seems similar to this one.

I'm not entirely sure of this, though. That needs investigation and
re-reading that bug (which has a very long log and for which fixes are
already in 3.2.6, IIRC).

I prefer using the important severity here, to still allow the
3.2.5-2 packages to enter testing (we have enough good reasons for
this). Please don't re-upgrade the bug severity too early.

  My notebook (acer travelmate 4501WLMi) provides battery status only with

 Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?

Bug#509531: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64: AMD Turion ZM82: freeze during boot with 2 cores, works with 1 core

2008-12-22 Thread Patrick Schueller
Package: linux-image-2.6.26-1-amd64
Version: 2.6.26-12
Severity: important

Debian Lenny freezes during boot on ASUS X56TR laptop with AMD Turion ZM82 
processor. I am currently running the AMD64 installation.

The freeze occurs only when both cores are activated. With kernel parameter 
maxcpus=1 (also with nosmp or acpi=off) it boots normally.

I have tested this on the following distributions:
Debian Lenny AMD64 (which I am using now)
Debian Lenny 32bit (-686 kernel; with -486 kernel, the problem is gone, but 
this only supports 1 kernel as I can see)
Ubuntu Hardy (8.04) 32 bit
Ubuntu Intrepid (8.10) 32 bit and 64 bit
Sidux Ourea Live CD

The problem remains the same everywhere. Just for completeness, the Vista 
installation which came preinstalled with this machine uses both cores 
without freezing (but is about three times slower with 2 cores than Debian with 
1 ;-))

The kernel log below is with 1 core (maxcpus=1).

  Hi,
 
  Since 2.6.21, sound on my Shuttle SN25P system (with ICE1724 sound
 device),
  stopped working properly. I have to use 2.6.20 in order for it to work.
  Any sound seems to gets played at a very low frequency.
 
  At boot-time, I can see alsactl complaining but I could not find the
 logs.
 
  Current pre-2.6.22 trees don't work either.

 Does this error still occur with more recent kernel versions?

 Cheers,
Moritz

This bug report probably isn't the right place for this, but still...

I'd just like to say thanks to Matt Palmer for his work on making the
debian installer work on the DNS-323, by the time I got round to
debricking my DNS-323 (u-boot committed suicide) to do the same, all
that was really left to do was port over some of the kernel patches
I'd created/collected for vanilla 2.6.25. :)
