[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I've analysed a couple of Noble systems today and don't think initramfs-
tools needs improving (although it might not hurt). On both systems,
plymouth-start was within 1 second of simpledrm starting (same
timestamp), but the bug still occurs. The reasons are:
1. One system actually experiences the bug ("fbcon: Taking over
console") _before_ "Initialized simpledrm" due to kernel error-level
messages.
2. After setting loglevel=3 (bug 2049390), it's a slight improvement but
the "clean" message from fsck via systemd still interrupts the boot
sequence.
So it looks like we need either:
* loglevel=3 (bug 2049390) and a systemd fix for fsck; or
* The kernel patch I've already proposed upstream.

Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen

Bug description:
[ Impact ]
Kernel (and systemd) log messages appear during boot for many
machines, when the user should be seeing only the BIOS logo and/or
Plymouth splash screens.
[ Workaround ]
On most machines you can hide the problem by using these kernel parameters
together:
quiet splash loglevel=2 fastboot
[ Test Plan ]
1. Boot Ubuntu on a number of laptops that have the problem and verify no
console text messages appear during boot.
2. Verify you can switch VTs (e.g. Ctrl + Alt + F4) and log into them still.
3. Reboot Ubuntu and remove the "splash" kernel parameter, now messages
should appear.
[ Where problems could occur ]
Since the fix works by deferring fbcon's takeover of the console, the
main problem encountered during its development was the inability to
VT switch.
[ Original Description ]
Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not
as clean as it used to be.
Basically, the flow used to be in 20.04:
GRUB > Splash screen > Login prompt
Currently in 22.04:
GRUB > Splash screen > Messages (in the attached file) > Splash screen
again for a sec > Login prompt
All of those messages already existed in 20.04, the difference is that
they were not appearing during boot.
I was able to get rid of the "usb" related messages by just adding
"loglevel=0" in GRUB. Currently is "quiet loglevel=0 splash".
Regarding the fsck related message, I can get rid of them by adding
"fsck.mode=skip".
However, I do not want to just disable fsck or set the loglevel to 0.
This is not a sustainable solution.
Something definitely changed here. These messages are not of enough
relevance to be shown at boot by default, and they should remain
hidden like they were in Focal.
Obviously a minor issue, but important to the whole look and feel of
the OS for desktop.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
Actually, not that scary. I think I can implement a complete solution as a single kernel patch. Just extend fbcon's deferred takeover feature to wait until a certain timeout has passed. And if "splash" is present then you can assume that should be a default of 10 seconds to wait for Plymouth's 8 second device timeout. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Daniel van Vugt (vanvugt) ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to plymouth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in linux package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen
I was wrong, the kernel has no interest in "splash" and I suspect it is plymouth displaying the unwanted messages. Perhaps we're not necessarily seeing the kernel log though. Are we just seeing systemd messages (PLY_ENABLE_SYSTEMD_INTEGRATION)? If that's it then we just need to make sure plymouthd's default mode is to not display anything (till DRM is ready with graphics). ** No longer affects: linux (Ubuntu) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to plymouth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1970069] Re: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen, since upgrading to Jammy
This looks more likely to be a kernel bug than plymouth right now. It would only be a Plymouth bug if plymouthd was the one displaying the kernel log messages while it waits for DRM to start. Thereafter it switches to graphics mode. ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: New => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to plymouth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen, since upgrading to Jammy Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.

This is a bug. The 'splash' option is configured, but text messages from the kernel are being shown. ** Changed in: plymouth (Ubuntu) Status: Invalid => Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to plymouth in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1970069 Title: Annoying boot messages interfering with splash screen, since upgrading to Jammy Status in plymouth package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Since upgrading from 20.04.6 Desktop to 22.04, the boot screen is not as clean as it used to be.
