@Jeremy, could you test once more with the above version of openipmi in
Trusty, to verify the SRU -- which will then allow it to propogate to
-updates?

[Timo Aaltonen]

Hello Oliver, or anyone else affected,

Accepted openipmi into trusty-proposed. The package will build now and
be available at
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openipmi/2.0.18-0ubuntu7.2 in a few
hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to
enable and use -proposed.  Your feedback will aid us getting this update
out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested, and change the tag
from verification-needed to verification-done. If it does not fix the
bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to
verification-failed.  In either case, details of your testing will help
us make a better decision.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

[Bug 1318317] Re: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules

[Nish Aravamudan]

** Description changed:

  I need some IPMI kernel modules, so I load them during startup. This
  worked quite well until I upgraded to Ubuntu 14.04.
  
  As you can see I have the modules in /etc/modules:
  
  # grep ipmi /etc/modules
  ipmi_watchdog
  ipmi_devintf
  ipmi_poweroff
  ipmi_si
  
  Right after reboot, the modules are there:
  
  # lsmod |grep -i ipm
  ipmi_si53257  2
  ipmi_poweroff  14366  0
  ipmi_devintf   17572  0
  ipmi_watchdog  24912  0
  
  but disappear after a few seconds/minute. I found out, that the cause is
  the /etc/init.d/openipmi script. The behaviour of the script is quite
  strange because a stop/start will behave differently then a restart.
  
  I loaded the modules manually using modprobe:
  ipmi_si53257  2
  ipmi_poweroff  14366  0
  ipmi_devintf   17572  0
  ipmi_watchdog  24912  0
  
  when I execute:
  # service openipmi stop
  
  the module ipmi_devintf gets removed:
  
  ipmi_si53257  2
  ipmi_poweroff  14366  0
  ipmi_watchdog  24912  0
  
  starting the service again with:
  
  # service openipmi start
  
  will remove ALL IPMI kernel modules:
  
  # lsmod |grep -i ipm
  #
  
  One of the reasons seems to be the module ipmi_msghandler. This is
  already integrated and causes some of the problems.
  
  When I remove it from /etc/init.d/openipmi like this:
  
  65,66c65
  < #MODULES_BASE="ipmi_msghandler"
  < MODULES_BASE=""
  ---
  > MODULES_BASE="ipmi_msghandler"
  325,326c324,325
  < #   modprobe ipmi_msghandler > /dev/null 2>&1
  < #   modules_loaded ipmi_msghandler
  ---
  > modprobe ipmi_msghandler > /dev/null 2>&1
  > modules_loaded ipmi_msghandler
  
  stoping and starting the service works again. But restarting the service
  will still remove all modules and will not load them anymore.
+ 
+ [Impact]
+ Issuing `service openipmi {start,stop,restart}` failures lead to unloading of 
IPMI modules that were previously loaded. Particularly on OpenPower systems, 
but also on others, this will result in 'ipmi_devintf' being unloaded during 
boot, and in-band IPMI being non-functional (amongst other IPMI functionality).
+ 
+ [Test Case]
+ On an OpenPower machine (this also happens on an appropriately configured 
(meaning without IPMI support) Intel qemu instance), load IPMI modules (in 
particular, ipmi_devintf, but any of them can be affected). Attempt to start 
the openipmi service with `service openipmi start`. Without the fix proposed, 
here, the ipmi_devintf module is unloaded. With the fix, the module stays 
loaded.
+ 
+ [Regression Potential]
+ The primary risk of regression is if an end-user was relying on the behavior 
of an error during openipmi initialization resulting in disabling of all IPMI 
functionality. I don't think that is reasonable behavior to rely on, though 
(and is not clearly documented anywhere as expected).

Great, thanks! I'll ask for the fix to get merged and then submit an SRU
for 14.04.

Great, thanks! I'll ask for the fix to get merged and then submit an SRU
for 14.04.

Looks good on 16.04 too:

$ sudo modprobe ipmi_devintf
$ sudo service openipmi start
Job for openipmi.service failed because the control process exited with error 
code. See "systemctl status openipmi.service" and "journalctl -xe" for details.
$ lsmod | grep ipmi
ipmi_devintf   13691  0

That'd be great, as we need to get it into 16.04 before we can get it into

[Bug 1318317] Re: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules

[Nish Aravamudan]

I've uploaded an alternative change to my PPA, builds are going now,
which only does not unload all modules in the error path.

The difference is, to minimize the impact to people that might be
depending on the error path *not* loading more modules, I've put the
return lines back in. So I'd like a re-test, if possible, Jeremy, to see
if this still works for your case.

For Trusty use 2.0.18-0ubunt7.3 and for Xenial use 2.0.18-0ubuntu10 from
my PPA. I'll fix the versions properly once we've agreed on the fix.

[Bug 1318317] Re: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules

[Nish Aravamudan]

Right, that is because "you" (slash the default) have specified in the
openmpi configuration file (/etc/default/openmpi) that IPMI_SI is needed
on your system. Thus, when it fails to load successfully, it is still
flagged as:

# no bits set = no errors
# bit 0 set = minimum modules aren't loaded
# bit 1 set = requested feature module isn't loaded
# bit 2 set = /dev/ipmi0 (or /dev/imb if using that instead) doesn't exist
# bit 3 set = /dev/watchdog doesn't exist
# bit 4 set = lockfile doesn't exist
# bit 5 set = modules are loaded even when asked to be unloaded

bit 0 being set (RETVAL | 1).

I guess we could change the logic in a different way such that bit 1
should be set in this case, rather than bit 0. But that would redefine
what the "minimum" modules are in OpenIPMI, which per the init-script
are ipmi_msghandler and ipmi_{si,smb} if those options are set in the
config file.

So I think what I provided is probably the best combination for the
configuration by default -- Robie did point out that my patch has a
logical issue in that the last added line is really a no-op. So I'll
spin up a new version and push it to my PPA. If you can test that one as
well, just to be sure it's functionally the same, then we'll work on
getting that into -proposed (once I learn how to do that :)

I'll provide another update once the new packages are present.

Thanks, Jeremy!

openmpi configuration file (/etc/default/openmpi) that IPMI_SI is needed
on your system. Thus, when it fails to load successfully, it is still
flagged as:

# no bits set = no errors
# bit 0 set = minimum modules aren't loaded
# bit 1 set = requested feature module isn't loaded
# bit 2 set = /dev/ipmi0 (or /dev/imb if using that instead) doesn't exist
# bit 3 set = /dev/watchdog doesn't exist
# bit 4 set = lockfile doesn't exist
# bit 5 set = modules are loaded even when asked to be unloaded

bit 0 being set (RETVAL | 1).

I guess we could change the logic in a different way such that bit 1
should be set in this case, rather than bit 0. But that would redefine
what the "minimum" modules are in OpenIPMI, which per the init-script
are ipmi_msghandler and ipmi_{si,smb} if those options are set in the
config file.

So I think what I provided is probably the best combination for the
configuration by default -- Robie did point out that my patch has a
logical issue in that the last added line is really a no-op. So I'll
spin up a new version and push it to my PPA. If you can test that one as
well, just to be sure it's functionally the same, then we'll work on
getting that into -proposed (once I learn how to do that :)

I'll provide another update once the new packages are present.

Thanks, Jeremy!

[Bug 1318317] Re: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules

[Jeremy Kerr]

>From comment #3:

> This breaks any system daemon that requires in-band IPMI.

To provide a little more detail here: the opal-prd daemon, necessary for
runtime system management on OpenPOWER machines, may communicate with
the BMC using IPMI. As part of that daemon's initialisation, it ensures
that the IPMI device interface is loaded (ie, the ipmi_devintf module),
to ensure that the /dev/ipmiN interface is working.

However, after that daemon is started, the openipmi init script then
*unloads* the ipmi_devintf module.

The same would happen if the user has added ipmi_devintf to
/etc/modules, to get it loaded on boot.

At best, this unload means that the user will always need to issue a
'modprobe ipmi_devintf', on every reboot, before running any 'ipmitool'
command using the in-band BT interface.

Since this also disabled communication between the opal-prd daemon and
the BMC, it means that errors detected by opal-prd may not be reported
to the BMC.

the BMC, it means that errors detected by opal-prd may not be reported
to the BMC.

[Bug 1318317] Re: openipmi startup script removes kernel modules

[Jeremy Kerr]

We see the same on OpenPower machines. Since we don't use the ipmi_si
interface, the openipmi init script fails, which removes modules which
we do need.

root@g43L:~# grep -B2 IPMI_SI /etc/default/openipmi
# Enable standard hardware interfaces (KCS, BT, SMIC)
# You probably want this enabled.
IPMI_SI=yes
root@g43L:~# modprobe ipmi_devintf
root@g43L:~# lsmod | grep ipmi
ipmi_devintf   13355  0 
ipmi_powernv5657  0 
ipmi_msghandler51374  2 ipmi_powernv,ipmi_devintf
root@g43L:~# service openipmi start
 * Starting ipmi drivers
   ...fail!
   ...done.
root@g43L:~# lsmod | grep ipmi
ipmi_powernv5657  0 
ipmi_msghandler51374  1 ipmi_powernv
root@g43L:~# 

This breaks any system daemon that requires in-band IPMI.

Workaround is to set IPMI_SI="no" in /etc/default/openipmi.

[Tore Anderson]

This affects me, too. After boot, the necessary ipmi_{si,devintf}
modules aren't loaded, so ipmitool and related monitoring doesn't work.

However this bug cannot possibly be in the ejabberd package, so I'm
reassigning it to openipmi.

** Package changed: ejabberd (Ubuntu) = openipmi (Ubuntu)
