I don't know which implementation of shadow stacks glibc/gcc is using in that setup. I've read up on the concept and so far only figured that this is part of a spiral that complicates ABI and makes providing assembly-optimized functions ever harder. This would be fine if compilers finally would be smart enough to evade the need to do so. Last time I checked, hand-tuned AVX decoding was still a lot more efficient. We already handle IBT, I think, with indirect jumps landing only in C wrapper functions. I wonder if we could also limit the shadow stack impact to those with some compiler/linker flags. The assembly routines are rather strict math, many years old now without much of attack surface. All parsing of input is before them in C. They just do lots of multiplication/addition. One might try to write a set of optimizations using intrinsics for modern CPUs that then also get the treatment of shadow stacks or the next shiny security measure. Porting the AVX code to GCC (and/or other) inline ASM might also work for some platforms. (Still, I am wondering why pulseaudio output should need MPEG decoding.)

Re: [Bug 1585926] Re: mp3 files decode as crackly noise
Did you try mpg123 -o pulse? I remember that noise under Ubuntu when using pulse via alsa. Using pulse directly worked. As the mpg123 alsa output works fine with standalone alsa, I suppose the alsa-pulse binding is buggy. One could build mpg123 with a changed order of default output modules, so that pulse is tried before alsa. But that might start a pulse daemon where none is wanted. One could drop that alsa plugin that relays to pulse ... mpg123 would skip alsa if there is no default device available. One could fix that alsa plugin ... but then, it's still ugly that mpg123 plays via alsa to pulse that again talks to alsa (kernel) ...when at least mpg123 could talk to pulse directly.

So I got a simple fix for being able to reboot again: ``` udpate-rc.d mdadm disable ``` With that, the mdmon instance from the initrd persists (with @sbin/mdmon as argv[0]) and is not killed by systemd. So systemd-reboot does not hang. But: Since mdmon is not killed at all now, the array always gets a fresh resync on each boot. We really, really need to implement the return-to-initrd practice to be able to bring the system down in the proper reverse order of bringing it up. (So initrd filesystem has to be kept in memory for the whole time … wasting some memory with the huge initrds of today's time.

[Bug 1585926] Re: mp3 files decode as crackly noise
This is mpg123 upstream here. I do not have a 16.04 system at hand currently, cannot confirm (and I suppose it should be a hardware machine, sound in a VM being possibly a different beast …). So, may I ask: 1. This is only with pulseaudio, right? Things are smooth when disabling it and playing directly via ALSA? 2. Does this persist with current mpg123 built from http://mpg123.org/current (it's 1.23.5)? Minimum receipe: apt-get install build-essentials apt-get libpulse-dev wget https://mpg123.org/current tar -xf mpg123-1.23.5.tar.bz2 cd mpg123-1.23.5 ./configure --disable-shared --with-audio=pulse make src/mpg123 $some_file (Naturally that's my guess, as I did not test on a ubuntu 16.04 system.) This should produce a self-contained mpg123 binary that does run without installing any modules. There was quite some work in the output code going from version 1.22 to 1.23. If the switch fixes things, we at least may have a hint at what fix might apply to the older version in Ubuntu. I am wondering about partial PCM frames being received by pulse, in particular. But that would cause output more like static noise, not what you describe … About the nature of the broken output … it is not just static noise; there is still the initial audio intelligible, just played fast with lots of skippyness?

Well, there is some wrong and some correct information there. The solution of using generic C code works for getting all output formats, yes (John Lindgren got a wrong impression there about float output being coupled to assembly optimizations). But there also is assembly-optimized decoding to floating point on ARM platforms that feature the NEON instructions (Cortex A8). There is no common build encompassing the different variants like x86 and it is not likely that there will be, as the normal ARM does integer math. There might be a build that combines ARM NEON with generic C fallback code, using floating point math. When audacious insists on floating point data, even on machines that do not feature floating point hardware, you have some options: a) build mpg123 with generic_fpu ... which makes it relatively slow for normal 16-bit playback (or in ARM terms: consuming too much energy), b) patch audacious mpg123 binding to convert 16 bit to float on-the-fly or c) patch mpg123 (or motivate a release) to do that float conversion after decoding, just like 24 bit or unsigned integer types are handled right now. I see a point for the latter one ... it would not be hard to do it. Just a bit pointless in case this is running on a CPU that has working floating point support, or NEON, even. Thoughts from debian?

[Bug 665806] [NEW] false battery alarm with realtime app running (jackd)
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-power-manager When I have the JACK daemon running with realtime priority on this MSI Wind U100 laptop and pull out the wall power, the system tells me that the battery is low and enters hibernation. The battery is full, though. If JACK is not active, nothing happens (just the battery symbol goes gray, which is irritating, but intended, I guess). This forced hibernation is particulary annoying as JACK really does not like going to sleep; it cannot be killed by an ordinary user after resume (meaning: stop it via the button in qjackctl); pkill -9 jackd is needed. But that's another bug in the JACK audio server that one could live with, wouldn't the system -- and I suspect it's called gnome-power- manager here -- force a suspend to disk. I'll check again if it's really just an issue when JACK has realtime priority, after posting this initial report (don't wanna loose it as collateral damage). Even if it is, I suspect some nasty race condition that could occur any time, but is helped by the scheduling schism introduced by JACK.

[Bug 665806] Re: false battery alarm with realtime app running (jackd)
OK, scrap the thing about JACK. It must have been luck before, but now I was able to get the forced hibernation without jackd running at all. The rather infurinating thing is that I get dialog that tells about the fact and offers OK and Cancel buttons... which have no effect on the action being taken. It might be nice if Cancel being pressed withing some time frame would cancel the hibernation process. I even triggered multiple hibernations in a row (unplug, plug, unplug). Causing the laptop to go to sleep again right after waking up. Anyhow: When unplugging from wall power, I get this notification blended onto the desktop about battery state ... and it tells me about 0:02 of battery runtime, 99% .. which somewhat contradicts the information when clicking on the battery applet, there I get 99%, OK, but also the much more sensible estimated runtime of 1:59 or so. Still, this seems to be a timing issue, perhaps the ACPI information doesn't change atomically, or there is just an error in the runtime calculation using an outdated value of whatnot. I suspect, that this might be worked around by waiting some seconds and then recomputing the remaining runtime -- and only triggering the emergency if the situation is confirmed. I do wonder though, if nobody else can reproduce this. Is the MSI Wind U100 BIOS just broken? I'm remined of the strange issues with the webcam and USB, or the Bluetooth/WLAN switch not working correctly by chance (gladly, it works in the Maverick install, as opposed to the live system from USB). -- false battery alarm with realtime app running (jackd) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/665806 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Note that mpg123 supports large files since quite some time now... I just verified that it also writes a WAV file 4G. But there is still a catch: It doesn't change the WAV format it uses... so for sizes 4G, the header information will be wrong, since the WAV header only has 4 bytes for the size field. You could still have software that works around this, but it might be an idea to add support for WAV64 or another container format.

[Bug 561301] Re: [RV690] flicker on startup, dead black screen after some time with lucid if KMS enabled (Needs DVI quirk)
About my mad monitor EDID ... are you talking about the existing LCD connected to VGA or the non-existing DVI? The physical monitor shouldn't be all that bad since it works without pain using an slightly older Xorg (perhaps about a year or so) without KMS. Should really be the hardware to blame? I hope it's possible to have the KMS code fixed up to work like the old code used to work... and also without KMS, Xorg now detects a sub-optimal mode. This might be due to some well-intended improvements, probably. Oh, and a side note: The splash screen business looks rather pointless in the current setup... after the boot manager menu, there is a delay where nothing happens visually and just a cursor on the top left of a black screen is shown... disk starts clattering in the background... at some time, the ubuntu splash screen comes up, but is replaced by the actual desktop very quickly. Same for shutdown ... it takes some moments to kill the desktop... and then the machine is off after very briefly offering a glimpse on the splash screen. So, some stuff is perhaps too fast (the actual work) ... though I am not sure what the delay at the beginning is about (should re-test with stock kernel and initrd... but I think it was the same there). But then... this is off-topic, just on my mind because of the flickering also hurting the perceived smoothness of the bootup. -- [RV690] flicker on startup, dead black screen after some time with lucid if KMS enabled (Needs DVI quirk) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561301 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 561288] [NEW] linux-rt being based on 2.6.31 seems to cause breakage with lucid
Public bug reported: I noticed that the RT kernel for lucid is based off version 2.6.31, compared to 2.6.32 for the stock ubuntu kernel. It is my suspicion that this is the reason for certain things not working. Most prominent: Network manager does not work. After switching from a base install of lucid beta1 on amd64 to the linux-rt kernel, the nm-applet vanished, and when bringing it back, it did not show my 3G USB modem (or any network device, AFAIR), although the kernel recognized it and I was able to dial up using wvdial. Another issue is wrong detection of the resolution for Xorg ... I have an old 15in XGA TFT connected to VGA, the linux-rt kernel prompted Xorg to try to run with 1366x768 instead of 1024x768. I had to fix this using /etc/X11/xorg.conf (luckily, _some_ parts of this file are not ignored yet). I built an own kernel using make-kpkg, for Opteron/Athlon64 only (http://thomas.orgis.org/ubuntu/linux- image-2.6.33.2-rt13-thorubuntu_2_amd64.deb), starting with vanilla 2.6.33.2-rt13 and off the stock ubuntu kernel config. I had to disable the staging drivers, though, as not all of them build with the RT patch. Using this kernel, everything works as with the stock ubuntu kernel. It is even bug-compatible as in my integrated Radeon graphics (RS690) dying after some time, leaving me staring at a black screen. That is a rather serious showstopper issue, but no regression from the stock ubuntu kernel. ** Affects: linux-rt (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- linux-rt being based on 2.6.31 seems to cause breakage with lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561288 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 561018] Re: software center allows removal of essential and required without extra prompt
I am wondering: The main issue is that it left the system in a unreparable state (out of itself) ... so essential packages should be protected. But, is it generally desired behaviour to silently delete dependent packages? Would a message with This would remove these apps, you really want it? not be a good idea, generally? But then, I might miss the supposed difference the Software Center should have compared to synaptic. -- software center allows removal of essential and required without extra prompt https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561018 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 561301] Re: [RV690] flicker on startup, dead black screen after some time with lucid
nomodeset kernel option does nothing (at least on my kernel build), but radeon.modeset=0 does help. Worked an evening on the box with disabled modesetting now and didn't see a freeze/crash. Only the mode detection is suboptimal... I have seen that in comparison to another Linux system I have on that box.. the image looked more crisp, less smearing on the LCD (that also covers the mode set using kernel modesetting). After manually fixing ip some tuned mode with slightly increased refresh rate (not 59.9 but rather 61 Hz or so) this is improved.

[Bug 561288] Re: linux-rt being based on 2.6.31 seems to cause breakage with lucid
OK, I have to revert the message about network manager... Today it also failed on me with the 2.6.33-based kernel. I found out that it's not a fault of nm-applet (it is irritating that it just does not show up when there is trouble) ... but rather sometimes the network manager daemon seems to be ill. On some boots it is not properly present. service network-manager restart usually helps to bring the nm-applet icon back and also restores functionality. It is generally frustrating that the system is not very verbose about whatever bothers it... nm-applet should draw an icon and tell me Network Manager is there but does not talk to me. When started from terminal, it prints something about missing dbus service... Shall I make a separate bug report on that? Or should this one here get tagged for network-manager? Concerning the linux-rt kernel, at least the point about default graphics being messed up still applies. But the network-manager thing is apparently not specific to the kernel version. -- linux-rt being based on 2.6.31 seems to cause breakage with lucid https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561288 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 561018] [NEW] software center destroys system without warning
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: software-center This is an excerpt out of https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu- studio-users/2010-April/006109.html (trying to get ubuntu (plus studio packages) lucid running)... so sorry for the prose, I had a hard night then. The information bits in it should still be important: quote Now... the crashing plymouth kept nagging me (would a system update really fix this now? -- I need to see if my next visit at the box is long enough for the downloads). It's main function seems to be nagging (and irritate newbies), so I decided to rip plymouth out. Due to a dangerous fling, I clicked on the Software Center menu entry. Searched for plymouth ... removed the daemon... seen that there still is a package for plymouth shared libs... wondered how much stuff might depend on it... figured that one will get warnings about removing dependent stuff (like synaptic does it)... deleted it. B-O-O-M! X11 is killed ... I manage to activate a plain console ... and see that I unwittingly entered a major system fubar. Tried to restart gdm ... there is no gdm ... tried to look after the binary... there is no /bin/ls! Wow. There even is no halt, reboot or shutdown. This system is really ripped apart for good. This is something one really would like to avoid happening to new users, old users ... anyone. This Software Center thingie is supposed to be the bubbly-touchy-feely admin interface for Linux newbies / notcarealots, right? I consider it a serious bug that it hoses the whole install beyond repair for any average ubuntu user (well, except for reinstall). Is this something known? Shall I make a flaming report on launchpad? /quote? I don't think the system information is very important here (I'm on a different box now and on the box I have a new install of ubuntu). It should be easily reproducible by installing ubuntu lucid beta1 from the CD image on amd64 and trying to remove plymouth shared libs in software center. It should try to stop me at least once before accidentally hosing the whole system. ** Affects: software-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- software center destroys system without warning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/561018 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 278176] Re: disk detection is real slow with some hardware (timout shell drops)
Just want to chime in to confirm what has been said so far. I experienced this some ubuntu releases ago (8.04, perhaps) with my Adaptec 39160. Fails to find root, big rootdelay helps. I initially blamed this on ubuntu because my self-built kernels did not feature this. I always built the scsi driver into the kernel and also used root=/dev/sda2 instead of root=UUID=... . Just recently I observed that the issue vanishes when replacing the dual-channel 39160 with a single-channel 29160 (I only used on channel anyway). So, is there some confusion with the initial scanning of two SCSI channels? Perhaps the kernel reports that it's done only after one channel? But then, it apparently works when the driver is built into the kernel. -- disk detection is real slow with some hardware (timout shell drops) https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/278176 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
