Bug#584881: Lockups under heavy disk IO; md (RAID) resync/check implicated
Ben Hutchings writes (Re: Bug#584881: Lockups under heavy disk IO; md (RAID) resync/check implicated): We really need to see the kernel messages reporting soft-lockup. There aren't any. Or, if there are, it isn't printing them to the serial console. Perhaps it is trying to send them only to syslogd which obviously can't write to the disk either. I know that the serial console is working after the crash as it echoes my first carriage return (although then login or the shell wedges before being able to print a prompt). I could have asked for a magic sysrq process dump but given that the process table is probably full I expect this would take many hours at 9600bps. Note that your disk configuration is unusual and probably not well-tested by others. It is unlikely that anyone in the kernel team will be able to debug this as I don't think any of us have particular expertise in this area. Search the web suggests that symptoms very similar to mine are not uncommon, including instances without soft lockup messages, and none of the other users seem to have a similar disk layout. I can't easily test this theory but I think the unusual disk layout is probably simply making a race easier to trigger. If you have the opportunity, it would be helpful if you could test a newer kernel version. This would give us a clue as to whether the bug has subsequently been fixed upstream, and if not then it would be the basis for an upstream bug report. Unfortunately testing this bug on the live system involves (a) risking a crash and then if the test fails (b) an extremely vulnerable system without backups for the following four days. I'll see if I can borrow a spare R210 from Jump, in which case I may be able to reproduce the problem in controlled conditions on my coffee table at home (and with access to the VGA console). Which kernel should I test in that case ? Ian. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Bug#586494: linux-image-2.6.26-2-686: Dell PowerEdge 4200's don't work with 2.6.26
Ben, Another option that may be worth trying is 'noapic'. Wow, that worked just fine actually on 2.6.26 stock kernel. Thanks a lot! I am curious though, what in the world changed since 2.6.18 and lower versions that might have required noapic? I've seen the option needed by so many people on many occasions, but I've never needed it until now. Any ideas? BTW, I also attached the dmesg for 2.6.26 working just for reference to anyone else who might stumble upon this bug, and for your curiosity as well. You need to get the corresponding linux-base package from testing or experimental, but the other dependencies should be satisfiable in lenny. FWIW, I did try grab linux-base too, but it then wanted to pull in a bunch of other packages to do with perl and stuff, so I just opted to recompile using the config and the source package and backport it manually with less hassle (assuming 5 hour compiles are less hassle lol). Also, I did try 2.6.32 from squeeze (after removing the lguest makefile line stopping the compile) and the vanilla 2.6.34 (after a UTS issue that involved tweaking /linux/ path to /generated/) kernel with noapic, and everything worked flawlessly. A shame it took an hour to hand configure 2.6.34 though, but at least I know to disable apic now. Anyways, thank you Obi-Wan Kenobi, errr, old Ben Kenobi ;) troubled -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

The only major issue we encountered was with mtu discovery for some users on IPv6 tunnels, however this was quickly resolved with a patch from Julius that has since gone into the mainline kernel. The referenced patch is commit 94b26551: IPVS: Add handling of incoming ICMPV6 messages, which is seems to be already present in the Sid kernel. Based on the above, I don't think there are known problems with this option. While it's untested on the wider scale, it seems to work for those using it.

Any gui mixer application fails to correctly work in this situation. Muting using shortcuts doesn't work, as the only way it could work is by setting the volume to 0%, not by actually muting.

With sound no longer working I mean I couldn't get any sound player to produce sound. They appeared to be working fine, the progress bar etc advances, but no sound was coming from my speakers. Using alsamixer I double checked that everything was un-muted and volume was set high enough. But relating to the original question, is the bug about unmutable PCM channel gone in the new kernel: NO. Using alsamixer, again I saw a mutable master and an un-mutable PCM channel. I couldn't test whether or not muting the master channel actually mutes the sound now, as no sound was coming from my speakers in any case :) Regards, Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

A way to get 2.6.33 or 34 (or head)?
Is there a way to pull down newer versions of the kernels? I put sid on a new laptop, but the wireless is flaky. It's of course worth trying newer kernels with something like this.

Bug#585790: linux-image-2.6.32-5-kirkwood: Oops in mv_cesa
* Martin Michlmayr | 2010-06-20 14:26:22 [+0100]: The patches until 0328ac267 to 15d4dd3 are probably required. All of these changes seem pretty self-contained, so I'd like to go ahead and apply all of them to Debian's 2.6.32 package. Do you see any problems with this? No I don't, you should be able to take them. I could test the debian kernel with those patches on-top if you want me to.
