[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1484497] Re: [Wily] wakes up green drives without a valid reason
It's questionable if it should be considered a bug or not. The culprit
is smartd. Ironically I used the package smartmontools 6.3+svn4002-2 to
get smartctl, for testing if something wakes up a green drive. Despite
the policy to autostart everything by default, that can be autostarted
for better or worse, it's to consider if the default configuration, to
poll every 30 minutes, is a wise decision. By an EU Regulation all
external hard disk drives are forced to spin down and go to sleep after
a while. I disabled smartd.service, any unneeded service is unwanted on
my machine.
After disabling it, nothing does wake up a green drive anymore.

The only spin is caused by smartctl, when it was executed on demand, to
finish the test.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1484497] Re: [Wily] wakes up green drives without a valid reason
To rule out the kernel being the culprit, I build a kernel I'm using with Arch
Linux, were green drives stay asleep. IMO it's not caused by the package linux.
There are no differences for the config, that are relevant for the issue.
It's unlikely that there were any additional patches used for the Arch Linux
kernel, that are related to the issue.
The spin down/spin up test:
[root@moonstudio weremouse]# t=10800;y=$(smartctl -A /dev/sdc|grep
Lo|awk '{print $NF}');sleep $t;x=$(smartctl -A /dev/sdc|grep Lo|awk
'{print $NF}');printf \n$(uname -rm)$(lsb_release -d|cut -f2 -d:|cut
-f1 -d()\n$x-$y=$((x-y)) spins in $(($t/60/60)) hours\n
3.10.61-rt65-1-moonstudio x86_64Ubuntu Wily Werewolf
15342-15333=9 spins in 3 hours
Arch Linux only makes one spin, when smartctl wakes up the drive after 3
hours.
That's how I build the Ubuntu kernel:
[root@moonstudio src]# export CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=2;wget
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v3.x/linux-3.10.61.tar.gz
https://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/projects/rt/3.10/older/patch-3.10.61-rt65.patch.gz
tar zxf linux-3.10.61.tar.gz
mv linux-3.10.61 linux-3.10.61-rt65
cd linux-3.10.61-rt65 gzip -dc ../patch-3.10.61-rt65.patch.gz | patch -p1
cp ../config-3.10.61-rt65-1-rt-lts.01.edit .config
make oldconfig make menuconfig make oldconfig
date
make-kpkg clean make-kpkg --initrd kernel-image kernel-headers
make-kpkg clean
date
Most likely the Arch kernel just had two additional patches:
change-default-console-loglevel.patch
fix-race-in-PRT-wait-for-completion-simple-wait-code_Nvidia-RT.patch
Both kernels are configured with CONFIG_X86_64=y and CONFIG_X86=y.
That's the diff of the Arch and Ubuntu config:

This issue never appeared related to kernel configs or kernel releases.
I suspect the culprit gets executed at startup.

[Kernel-packages] [Bug 1484497] Re: [Wily] wakes up green drives without a valid reason
Please mention the log files you need and I'll post them. For good reasons I removed apport. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Status: Incomplete = Confirmed -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kernel Packages, which is subscribed to linux in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1484497 Title: [Wily] wakes up green drives without a valid reason Status in linux package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Hi, a minimalist Wily server install, around 4.5 GiB small does cause endless spin downs and spin ups, so that green drives get damaged. I maintain an around 37.5 GiB large Arch Linux install, quasi using the same software used by the Wily install and in addition a little bit more software, which isn't used by the Wily install. For Arch Linux I don't experience this issue. I expect the same for an Ubuntu install. I'm already hunting the culprit, see https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-devel/2015-August/006570.html and https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-studio-devel/2015-August/006571.html, but run out of ideas. The claim the install is 2 GiB small is a typo, the backup archive is of that size. However, assumed Ubuntu won't contribute to http://andrewmcconnell.photoshelter.com/gallery/GoLuiBLHIsmM this feature should be removed from the defaults. $ lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu Wily Werewolf (development branch) Release: 15.10 Regards, Ralf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1484497/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages Post to : kernel-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kernel-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
