[Kernel-packages] [Bug 2044139] Re: Kernel image 6.5 (web-)midi problems

2023-11-21 Thread Henning Sprang
I also found this interesting page that discloses that Ubuntu kernel versions 
like 6.5.0 are not solely based on this version number mainline kernels but 
really contain much later versions
https://people.canonical.com/~kernel/info/kernel-version-map.html

but there is no version of this for current kernels. So I dont know if
that is still the case for todays ubuntu kernels. (if so, this is
extremly confusing to always set the minor version to 0 despite it's
really anything later and such a map is needed to understand that)

Bug description:
  After the update to mantis, I have a problem with (at least - i have
  not yet researched further issues) Web-Midi applications running in
  the browser.

  Up to Kernel 6.2 it works just fine (also when downgrading the kernel
  to 6.2 in mantis)to use https://app.electra.one/
  http://components.novationmusic.com/ with a web midi enabled browser
  (must be google chrome installed by deb or chromium installed from
  their nightly builds or via nixos - because the snap version doesn't
  properly allow web midi for some reason that I still need to
  investigate further).

  When using any 6.5 or later kernel as included in mantis, or also when
  building my own from kernel.org, the devices I want to be managed with
  are basically identified, but no further actions are possible.

  This is 100% reproducible, switching back and forth between 6.5+ and 6.2 
kernels is very clearly showing the old version always works easily, but the 
newer version doesn't.
  Also a 6.6.1 mainlne kernel from kernel.org still has the issue.

  I have fiddled with this quite some hours, I suspected it has something to to 
with the midi 2.0 change in kernel 6.5 and tried turning it off with module 
parameters, but also when disabled or compiled a kernel without midi 2.0 
support the problem, persists. 
  The same with the latest 6.6.1 kernel.

  I have not found any error output in dmesg or journalctl that seems to
  be related to the problem so far, and also no other way to try to
  trigger the problem but the above described web midi thing.

  All tests have been done with the ubuntu kernel config - and the
  mainline configs created with make oldconfig.

  So I might additionally test the default mainline configuration, and
  also later mainline versions like 6.6.2 and try to identify other
  erratic behaviours in midi usage (of controllers etc) and add
  information about it... also I did not yet try the normal "generic"
  kernels, just

  Also I found this thing right now:

  https://forum.cockos.com/showthread.php?t=283086

  at the end it says there has been a bug in the kernel in the midi
  code.

  But I'm not sure if that is the same issue. For one I have not seen similar 
error messages in my system, but mainly this post says the bug is fixed in 
6.5.6  https://lwn.net/Articles/946853/ - and I have tested 6.5.11 mainline 
form kernel.org with the problem still persisting. 
  It might be there is some more wrong with the 6.5+ kernels in the midi area.

  
  if there are any further tests or logs needed or helpful, please let me know.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1973434] Re: massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade

2022-06-14 Thread Henning Sprang
@uengberg:

in my research for another bug/problem 
(https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/power-profiles-daemon/+bug/1977660 - 
I did not yet document it there)
i found out that power profile behaviour is strange and actually i realized 
that the settings available in gnome *do* have a short term effect on Kernel 
parameters, but keep jumping back to the other setting.

Then I connected this finding mentally with the finding i made here,
namely that performance is better in lxde then in gnome, and I tried to
see whats happening if I completely remove the power-profile-daemon,
because I though it is probably bad when a Kernel or the Thinkpad
firmware cannot properly set power profiles and keepy jumping back and
forth...

Wile this is only how I imagine these things working with my less than
incomplete knowledge, I can says than Video playback in gnome works
quite nicely after having removed the dysfunctional power-profile-daemon
package.

You might try to see if that helps you too.
BTW in my case video(and accompanying audio) is/was problematic in all browsers 
i tested - in firefox, chrome and chromium, as well as in Zoom App(which I 
guess is likely an electron app). I had no chance to test is zoom works now too.

I still dont know if this all just is a symptomatic remedy or really the
root cause, though.

Just as much I dont know if this really is a Kernel, a thinkpad
Firmware/ACPI, or another low level library problem.

@mruffel: are there any cpu/performance tests suites we could run to
make all this more measurable instead of having to say "oh run a bunch
of Youtube videos and/or zoom calls and see if it starts stuttering
after a while"? The thing not working properly could be video playback,
but it could also just be some scheduling issue and a system that cant
cope well with single processes creating short term CPU spikes, as
gnome-shell does and as in Video Playback the RDD Process appears to
cause.

  massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  Hi,
  After upgrading to 22.04 i had to fight with massive performance issues.

  Browsers appeared to hang every other minute, youtube videos being
  laggy and hang in between, applications in a virtualbox VM where slow
  and also hanging every other minute to a level of not being useable.
  On a pretty recent and powerful system just 2 years old.

  I noticed CPU jumps in top, but also somehow thought it could be a graphics 
issue so invested some time installing nvidia drivers properly.
  Also I wondered if it might be the lowlatency kernel I normally use because I 
do audio stuff, and switched to generic. But nothing helped.

  ThenI had the idea it could be a kernel/scheduler issue because the
  system wasn't always slow, but it appeared certain things kept hanging
  when other processed had a lot of cpu for a few seconds.

  So I got a recent mainline kernel, configured it with my last running
  config from 21.10 before the update, made the debs and installed them,
  and now can tell that a mainline kernel 5.17.7 with all the dkms
  modules that i had before which got compiled automatically at
  installation brings back a "normal" performance.

  I can browse the web, run multiple youtube vids at once, even in
  another browser, have thunderbird running, and a virtualbox machine
  open with another browser for some web app testing and everything runs
  fine and smooth, no lagging.

  Not sure yet what the real reason is - either the kernel version, or a
  patch in the ubuntu version, or the 22.04 kernel config so far, or
  some configuration made in 21.10 that isn't good with 22.04 and it's
  kernel anymore.

  I will go ahead tomorrow and see if I can build a vanilla kernel with
  the config from the ubuntu 22.04 kernel and "make oldconfig", then I
  will be able to tell if only the config is making the difference.

  Please let me know of there is anything I should test to further
  analyze this issue, or any ideas I can try to solve it without having
  to run a mainline manually installed kernel.

  Thanks.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1973434] Re: massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade

2022-06-09 Thread Henning Sprang
@mruffel:
interesting, I am right now already at 5.15.0-37-generic from:
APT-Sources: http://de.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu jammy-updates/main amd64 
Packages

I gave up with custom Kernels as it seemed they provide no clear
improvement better then running the ubuntu package with iommu turned of
as you recommended.

The last I tried was 5.18.1, but that doesn't work with the virtualbox
dkms stuff which I depend on for work. I assume this wont better with
5.19, but i can try later.

I cannot say for sure if / how much of the problem existed in 21.10 because my 
usage scenario changed around the time when I updated - a new work project, 
more videocalls, and I am traveling and use the laptop more for media 
consumption as youtube and videos like this: 
https://www.zdf.de/gesellschaft/markus-lanz/markus-lanz-vom-7-juni-2022-100.html

I had twice weekly videocalls with Teams in the browser which drove the CPU up 
and the fans on, but did not stutter to a point of being impossible.
But now I (try to) use Zoom, every day, and it's basically not possible - I 
have to use my (twice as old and much weaker mobile CPU) windows tablet for 
this.

I cannot "easily" start a full clean install as I need the machine for
daily work, and setting everything up from scratch takes some while -
but I will try to get a second disk to be able to do it but keep the
exiting install to work as good as it is. I might be able to restore a
pre-update state of my system into a free logical volume and run this.
Will see how far i get!

It might very well be that I have multiple problems at once and every
one of them contributes a bit to the poor performance I see, also
because multiple changes seem to lead to slightly better behaviour each:

* turning iommu off makes things from extremely unsmooth to nearly acceptable
* turning intel_boost off makes things a bit better and acceptable
* moving from gnome to lxde gets me even pretty stutter free video(but not the 
UX I want...)

It could be a combination of kernel / graphics library /
gnome(-shell)...

OR it could be *only* a kernel thing, but slightly suboptimal behaviour
of graphics libaries and gnome.

E.g. gnome-shell has a lot of short cpu load peaks on a single core,
which should normally not block everything else but maybe can lead to
video stuttering when process/IO management and scheduling are wrong in
the first place...

I'll keep testing and experimenting when I have spare time and report
any findings here...

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1973434] Re: massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade

2022-06-04 Thread Henning Sprang
BTW: also, as I have an nvidia graphics card in that machine, one could think 
something is wrong with the graphics drivers... 
But I tried the nvidia drivers as recommended by the driver GUI tool as well as 
nouveau. It "feels" like the nvidia drivers are even slightly worse.

On the Ubuntu live USB sticks, where perfromance is better, nouveau is
used, on Poop OS the nividia driver - they seem all work similarly good.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1973434] Re: massive performance issues since 22.04 upgrade

2022-06-04 Thread Henning Sprang
I have an update on this and quite a bit of more information, even
though not very clear what it means and how to further go on fully
fixing it:

After some more usage i realized that the performance is still pretty
weak when using my desktop system for slightly more "real" work.

I kept getting stutter in Video playback and Web browsers when using web
applications with the slightest bit of JavaScript functionality, and a
Virtualbox virtual machine.

I first suspected gnome-shell to be a culprit and had the impressions
things where sligthly better when using LXDE as a desktop environment,
but still I never got real good performance.

it's a real hard to get a grip on problem, as I dont know how to
instantly produce the problem and measure it as with normal bugs.

The easiest thing I can do is open a web browser, got to youtube, and open a 
few videos in new tabs and try to play them, and skip back and forth to 
different points,  and "pretty soon" I get a stuttering in the video, a mouse 
pointer not moving fluently, switching tabs taking multiple seconds that 
usually works in an instant, a browser process with multiple 100s of % of CPU 
and a RRD* process. 
 
these are things that work without a problem on a very old Lenovo x1 tablet 
with a mobile processor, and that i would expect to work equally easy on a 
pretty new X1 extreme with i9 processor and 32G Ram...

I did some more testing ( I cannot call it real debugging as I dont know
how to use proper tooling and stuff for these kind of analysis) and
checked how other Distributions and other Ubuntu versions perform from
USB Live systems and found that not only PopOS, but also Ubuntu 21.10,
BUT to my surprise also 22.04 from USB Live system behave much better.

So I thought i must have some setting wrong, but I didn't know which,
until i tried to turn off Intel Boost because I remembered in Ubuntu
Studio it is recommended to be turned off for good audio performance.
This helps a lot!

But, this is not what is different between 22.04 live - because there,
Intel boost is ON and it still behaves good.

I tried this with several browsers with always the same result, so it seems to 
be a generic graphics system/library, or kernel problem. It actually "feels" 
like some scheduling issue - which was the reason I tried the boost setting.
I also tried with a new test user, to make sure it's not a userspace local 
setting, or any browser plugin. But the same problems with a new, "clean" user.

The system I experience all this with has been installed first with
20.10, so it has multiple upgrades - it *could* be there is some other
setting from previous software versions thats broken - but I have no
idea what setting this could be and how I can search for it.

It could also be some old version of some gnome, X11 ( I also tried Xorg
as well as wayland, no noticeable difference) or graphics library, and
the kernel package is the wrong place for this bug, but I dont know
where to start with that then...

  Hi,
  After upgrading to 22.04 i had to fight with massive performance issues.

  Browsers appeared to hang every other minute, youtube videos being
  laggy and hang in between, applications in a virtualbox VM where slow
  and also hanging every other minute to a level of not being useable.
  On a pretty recent and powerful system just 2 years old.

  I noticed CPU jumps in top, but also somehow thought it could be a graphics 
issue so invested some time installing nvidia drivers properly.
  Also I wondered if it might be the lowlatency kernel I normally use because I 
do audio stuff, and switched to generic. But nothing helped.

  ThenI had the idea it could be a kernel/scheduler issue because the
  system wasn't always slow, but it appeared certain things kept hanging
  when other processed had a lot of cpu for a few seconds.

  So I got a recent mainline kernel, configured it with my last running
  config from 21.10 before the update, made the debs and installed them,
  and now can tell that a mainline kernel 5.17.7 with all the dkms
  modules that i had before which got compiled automatically at
  installation brings back a "normal" performance.

  I can browse the web, run multiple youtube vids at once, even in
  another browser, have thunderbird running, and a virtualbox machine
  open with another browser for some web app testing and everything runs
  fine and smooth, no lagging.

  Not sure yet what the real reason is - either the kernel version, or a
  patch in the ubuntu version, or the 22.04 kernel config so far, or
  some configuration made in 21.10 that isn't good with 22.04 and it's
  kernel anymore.

  I will go ahead tomorrow and see if I can build a vanilla kernel wit

2022-05-16 Thread Henning Sprang
Hi Matthew,

Yes, that looks very good! have to dig a bit deeper and do some more
actual work, but at the first glance I can do the things that I
described above where impossible!

Thanks a lot!

I tried to build 5.17.7 with the 22.04 config and make olddefconfig
and then bindeb-pkg, but it took extremely much longer than with the
20.10 config, and after about 2 hours i saw it still hanging on
dpkg-deb for the dbg package and even half an hour later not finish.

I will try again tonite, probably doing a full "mrproper" before and
letting it run over night to see if it really hangs or just takes
extremely long.
Actually I cant imagine why a dpkg-deb should hang, but I also saw now
clues what it could be.

Cheers,
Henning

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1713017] Re: Enable MIDI support

2021-01-07 Thread Henning Sprang
as far as I can see in the bluez package source, the midi option is
enabled now, so it *could* be closed...

But even though it's on, I dont get it working, so I cannot confirm for
sure.

Expectation is: when connecting to a device, I get an alsa sequencer
client, but I dont see that happening.

But also I am not sure if I use it correctly, as i see nearly no documentation 
about it, despite one place that said what I mentioned above in what I expect 
to happen.
I dont even know for sure if this direction is supposed to be unidirectional or 
bi-directional. (e.g. if my laptop can be the midi host, device or both). 

I'll keep trying. If anyone has a pointer to docs how it is really
supposed to work, so i can confirm, it would be helpful and this ticket
could be closed.

  3)
  I expected the mouse to reconnect automatically, or at least after I try to 
reconnect manually through the bluetooth settings.

  4)
  I have to re-pair the mouse in order to use it again. Turning the mouse off 
and on doesn't work either.
