[Bug 1317811] Re: Dropped packets on EC2, xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x slots

2015-02-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
I believe my test case is flawed, so I cannot verify with certainty if
the issue is fixed or not. This is the same test case as I used before,
for which I posted code in a gist:
https://gist.github.com/stephank/764e3414d57bc3bcb6b3

Here's what I tried:

 - I started two new c3.large machines from ami-69e76c1e (eu-west-1 HVM
64-bit trusty with instance store)

 - I downloaded io.js 1.2.0 on machine A, together with the pub.js and
sub.js scripts from my gist.

 - I installed redis-server on machine B and reconfigured redis to bind
on to the internal IP (in 10.x.x.x)

 - The machines were initially running linux-virtual 3.13.0.45.52. I
reproduced the issue in this setup by running sub.js twice, then pub.js
once on machine A, connecting them to redis on machine B. The 'rides the
rocket' message showed up in the logs, and the subs lost their
connection.

 - I enabled trusty proposed on both machines with a pin, and
selectively upgraded linux-virtual on both machines. Then rebooted on
both. The kernel on both machines is now linux-virtual 3.13.0.46.53.

 - I ran the same test again, sub.js twice, pub.js once on machine A,
connecting to machine B. There were no 'rides the rocket' messages, but
the subs still lose their connections. I sporadically get
'net_ratelimit: x callbacks suppressed', but not on every test run.

 - I disabled scather/gather on both machines, which also dropped their
MTU to 1500, and ran the test again several times. There were no more
'net_ratelimit' messages, but the subs still lose their connections.

 - I installed redis-server on machine A the same way, listening on the
internal IP, and ran the same test on machine A, but this time
connecting to itself on the internal IP. The test now runs indefinitely.
(But this probably doesn't touch the driver.)

So I'm not sure what to take away from this. I suppose I could continue
by trying to fix my test case to run properly without scather/gather,
before again enabling it. Or find a way to trigger it using a different
test, such as with redis-benchmark.

Stefan, is it sufficient verification if your own testing now shows it
fixed?

2014-05-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Thanks for the continued help fixing this!

I couldn't reproduce it using redis-benchmark on EC2, but that's okay.

Scatter/gather IO is solely a performance flag in the driver? As in, it
won't affect applications?

The only effect I noticed after disabling it is that it's apparently
required for jumbo framing:

vif vif-0 eth0: Reducing MTU because no SG offload

And it dropped to 1500. But I can live with that.

Also, do you have a link to the upstream discussion?

2014-05-13 Thread Stéphan Kochen
I can't comment on the driver implementation details, but I can give
some further details about our experience.

The app in question was a second screen app for the dutch public
broadcasting network for the Eurovision Song Contest. The app was live
for two semi-finals on tuesday the 6th and thursday the 8th, as well as
the finals saturday the 10th. Load was lowest on the thursday, when the
Netherlands did not perform, and highest saturday during the finals. We
ran c3.large instances for all shows.

During the first run on tuesday was when we first noticed the issue.

Shortly before the second run on thursday we noticed the high MTU
setting as a possible cause, and changed it to 1500 on half of our
machines in the redundant setup. There was a clear difference in
connection stability between these machines.

For the third run on saturday, we had all machines on the normal MTU of
1500, as we adjusted our startup scripts to force the setting. We had
zero connection issues that night, and clean kernel logs, even though
this night saw the highest network load of all three.

We have several m1.small instances running 24/7 as well, and these have
clean kernel logs, but their network load is quite low. The MTU on these
has always been untouched, and is a normal 1500, apparently by default.

In the instance type list, EC2 shows Compute Optimized instances as
having Enhanced Networking. Even though we don't qualify for it, perhaps
the networking setup is different for these instances.
https://aws.amazon.com/ec2/instance-types/

About a custom kernel, we'd have to look into deploying it, or
reproducing the issue on a smaller test setup. I'd prefer looking into
the latter, because maybe we can reproduce it between just two instances
with stress tools.

2014-05-13 Thread Stéphan Kochen
So I have a smaller test case. Basically, install Redis (from apt) on
one machine, and Node.js (binaries from nodejs.org) with the below
scripts on the other. Run pub.js once, and sub.js twice, this quickly
triggers the error. The first arg to each script is the address of the
redis machine; I use the internal 10.0.0.0/8 address.

https://gist.github.com/stephank/764e3414d57bc3bcb6b3

I initially tried to do this using openbsd-inetd echo and several netcat
processes, but that doesn't seem to trigger it. Maybe it's something
specific about the way Redis distributes pubsub messages to its
subscribers?

If you'd like me to run this on EC2, I can give it a try. A custom

For what it's worth, the MTU appears to differ per instance type. At
least c3.large has an MTU of 9000 by default, while m1.small has a
normal MTU of 1500.

[Bug 1317811] [NEW] Dropped packets on EC2, xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: x slots

2014-05-09 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Public bug reported:

Running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on EC2, we see a lot of the following in the
kernel log:

xen_netfront: xennet: skb rides the rocket: 19 slots

Each of these messages corresponds to a dropped TX packet, and
eventually causes our application's connections to break and timeout.

The problem appears when network load increases. We have Node.js
processes doing pubsub with a Redis server, and these are most visibly
affected, showing frequent connection loss. The processes talk to each
other using the private addresses EC2 allocates to the machines.

Notably, the default MTU on the network interface seems to have gone up
from 1500 on 13.10, to 9000 in 14.04 LTS. Reducing the MTU back to 1500
seems to drastically reduce dropped packets. (Can't say for certain if
it completely eliminates the problem.)

The machines we run are started from ami-896c96fe.

The machine is no longer running, but I can run apport-collect from a
similar machine. The only difference being that we've since added a line
to our startup script to reduce the MTU to 1500.

[Bug 676183] Re: Basic shaders produce incorrect output

2010-11-18 Thread Stéphan Kochen
After some more experimentation, it looks like it's specifically a
problem with float literals, which are floored / truncated. Things work
when I simply replace them with uniforms and set their value in
JavaScript.

[Bug 676183] [NEW] Basic shaders produce incorrect output

2010-11-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Public bug reported:

Trying to build something on WebGL technology, I noticed that basic
shaders were producing incorrect output. The problem occurs on both
Firefox 4 and Chrome 7. I'm on Intel GM965 hardware, but strangely also
see the exact same problem when I install `libgl1-mesa-swrast` or try
with `LIBGL_ALWAYS_SOFTWARE=1`.

The problem can be reproduced with a fragment shader that simply says:

gl_FragColor = vec4(1.0, 0.9, 0.9, 1.0);

The output will appear in bright red. I've had several people on Windows
and Maverick with nVidia report that they see a pinkish white, as I was
expecting in the first place.

I've uploaded a simple WebGL example here: (I'll try to attach it.)

2010-11-16 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Here's the example page as an attachment, for archiving.

Perhaps useful to add, some other things I've tried:

 * Drawing interpolated color shades using a varying variable works.
 * Functions like `dot` and `max` produce valid float output. For example, 
using these two, I can implement just the diffuse step in Phong shading.
 * But once I start using using regular operators on the floats, the values are 
truncated.

In the screenshot I uploaded, the characters sometimes touch or overlap

'Spark', and 'Al' in 'Algemeen'.

Apart from what I find pleasant to look at, the smoothing with slight 
hinting, to me, pretty much resembles what I see in OS X. I personally 
hold Apple in high regard when it comes to typography. But then, I 
really know next to nothing about typography.

If it really is a matter of preference, then what are the arguments for 
changing the default? How can we tell which is right?

Thanks for that screenshot. Even if it was just to convince me.

That and going back to Patrik's screenshot, the default fonts definitely 
look better with full hinting.

[Bug 210921] Re: Fontconfig should default to full hinting

2009-09-13 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Pascal, I found this bug report through you blog post, FYI.

I'd like to add some counterweight here, but I'm not sure if I'm making
assumptions. Is changing the hinting option in the appearance control
panel the same as switching those symlinks?

Because setting the hinting to full there actually makes fonts look
rather blocky in my case, even squished together. I've attached a
screenshot for comparison.

Could be that I tried to work around the problem by picking a different
font, rather than a different hinting setting. The text in that
screenshot is all in Lucida Sans and Lucida Sans Typewriter.

Besides the slight hinting, I also have sub-pixel rendering on and set
to RGB. But I'm not sure what other settings matter in this case.

[Bug 423426] Re: linux-image-2.6.31-9-virtual package missing virtio modules

2009-09-09 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Perhaps something else is wrong in my setup, but just 20 minutes ago I
did an update on a Karmic VM to what appears to be linux-virtual
2.6.31.10.21. The modules are still missing.

Booting from the server CD and dropping to a shell to investigate, the
last kernel version for which I can find the virtio modules on the
virtual drive is 2.6.31-5. I don't have a -6, but -7, -8, -9 and -10 all
lack virtio modules.

The VM boots fine with 2.6.31-5 after changing the grub configuration to
use it.

I've attached a screenshot of 2.6.31-10 booting, after it has dropped me
to a busybox shell. It shows that the running kernel is indeed -10 and
/dev/vda* nodes are missing.

Wow, that's quite a bunch of uploads there.

I should mention that on the current version of PulseAudio, which seems
to be 0.9.16~test7-14-g7ca81-0ubuntu2, I see some slight changes.
PulseAudio no longer restricts my slider movement in alsamixer, and
let's me slide the PCM all the way down without interfering and
adjusting master.

Problem still stands though, I cannot get a sane 'maximum' volume
without using alsamixer.

The version there no longer changes the PCM volume, so I can set it to

Now that you mention it, yes I do. I tried the slider in the output

Perhaps it's a PulseAudio thing rather than a gnome-media thing?

[Bug 414956] [NEW] Cannot maximize PC volume without producing crackling sound

2009-08-17 Thread Stéphan Kochen
Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-media

I often maximize volume on my PC in order to delegate volume control to
an external volume control wheel that speakers with amplifiers and some
headphones have.

The issue is that, maximizing the PCM volume on my laptop produces
crackling sound. The applet used to not touch this, so I always had this
at a fixed 80%, and only the Master volume setting was ever adjusted.

In Karmic, adjusting volume using the applet changes both PCM and
Master, and when maximized thus produces crackling sound.

My workaround options appear to be:
 * Find the 'sweet spot' on the slider each time I do this. Tedious.
 * Mix and mash the applet and external volume controls. Seems against the 
'flat volume' principle.
 * Maximize the external volume control and only use the applet. Produces 
slight static.
 * Resort to 'alsamixer -c0'. Which means giving up on the GUI.

Right now, I use the last of those workarounds, but none of these seem
optimal.

Some more background on that:

Interestingly, when adjusting the PCM volume in alsamixer, the system
seems to have some 'sweet spot' logic already built in. If I try to
lower PCM volume below 74%, it adjusts Master volume instead. This works
vice versa as well: adjusting volume from 0% up first increases PCM to
74%, then starts increasing Master to 100% before finally increasing PCM
again to it's full 100% volume.

Expected behavior would be a sane volume with no crackling when the
volume slider is set to maximum.

The driver I'm using appears to be snd-intel-hda, and lspci tells me:
Audio device: Intel Corporation 82801H (ICH8 Family) HD Audio Controller (rev 
03)

gnome-media 2.27.90-0ubuntu1

[Bug 211962] Re: keyjnote exits with OpenGL error

2008-05-05 Thread Stéphan Kochen
I had a similar problem trying to run a Python-based OpenGL application
on a minimal install.

It turns out, the Python OpenGL module uses the ctypes module to find
libGL, which in turns relies on binutils' objdump.

Try installing the binutils package, and see if this solves your
problem.
