[Bug 190414] Re: Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time.
I'm marking this bug back to Fix Released, as it is fixed for the initial reporter (me). In order to keep launchpad clean and to make sure that we don't mix different bugs, if anybody can still reproduce any issue, please open a new bug report including all relevant information you can give. If anybody can reproduce a problem that seems identical, it is still not the same bug has it is affecting different hardware, so it requires a special attention.

Un-assigning myself since I won't have time to work on this bug. FWIW, there were many changes to the clock code around 2.6.24. All subscribers to this bug should file separate bugs because clocks are very HW/chipset specific. So even though they might appear to be the same problem, they might not be. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Assignee: Amit Kucheria (amitk) => (unassigned) -- Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190414 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 190414] Re: Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time.
Hello, i got the same problem in my boot process. The message "Clocksource tsc unstable" blocked the booting for about 100 seconds and I had 2-3 else pauses after this... But I could solve the problem with a strange solution: I put the parameter clocksource=tsc Line in menu.lst: kernel /boot/vmlinuz-2.6.27-9-generic root=UUID=c6b5a1de-ce34-4618-b933-064490a2308e ro clocksource=tsc and I had no pauses, instead of having 5-10 Minutes to boot I do now have 1 Minute or less. Maybe this makes no sense, but I encourage all of you who have this problem to try it out and report here if it worked... Working with intrepid ipex. I've got two logs attached, one before i made clocksource=tsc and one after it...

[Bug 190414] Re: Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time.
Hi There, I'm having this exact problem on Hardy Server, but this is fairly critical for me. The same error is logged: Sep 20 10:22:25 host-01 kernel: [51281.289424] Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 3323063740502 ns) Sep 20 10:22:25 host-01 kernel: [51281.299403] Time: acpi_pm clocksource has been installed. Sep 20 10:22:26 host-01 kernel: [51282.778316] NET: Registered protocol family 17 The problem here is once acpi_pm is installed the clock stays at that time as ntp seems to either be unable to update time or it constanly loses time and ntp manages to "hold" the time at the current time (Sep 20 10:22:26 in this case). This is a real showstopper as this causes all sorts of problems, Cacti graphs stop logging as it effectivly freezes in time as far as cacti is concerned and nagios/cron have problem scheduling things. The server (I've two that do this) both running 2.6.24-19-server become highly unstable, ssh logins fail, the system becomes highly unresponsive. I haven't pinned down when exactly this occured but it's basically rendered Hardy Server useless. It seems to have happened int he last couple of weeks but I'll be digging through the old logs to see... the problem being the logs are pretty useless with the time being completely off ! As regards changing clocksource the ones available are: sudo cat /sys/devices/system/clocksource/clocksource0/available_clocksource acpi_pm jiffies tsc I'm trying jiffies as acpi_pm and tsc appear useless. The processor is a Intel(R) Xeon(TM) CPU 2.40GHz and it's Dell server, I'm afraid I'll have to update later on model numbers (it's a remote system) in case this is something hardware specific as I know both are the same, in fact so far a 3rd Server which is a HP proliant hasn't show same error. I'd have to say I can't really wait for Ibex on this as the whole point of LTS Server is so it can sit there for 2 years or so till the next LTS.

The Ubuntu Kernel Team is planning to move to the 2.6.27 kernel for the upcoming Intrepid Ibex 8.10 release. As a result, the kernel team would appreciate it if you could please test this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. There are one of two ways you should be able to test: 1) If you are comfortable installing packages on your own, the linux- image-2.6.27-* package is currently available for you to install and test. --or-- 2) The upcoming Alpha5 for Intrepid Ibex 8.10 will contain this newer 2.6.27 Ubuntu kernel. Alpha5 is set to be released Thursday Sept 4. Please watch http://www.ubuntu.com/testing for Alpha5 to be announced. You should then be able to test via a LiveCD. Please let us know immediately if this newer 2.6.27 kernel resolves the bug reported here or if the issue remains. More importantly, please open a new bug report for each new bug/regression introduced by the 2.6.27 kernel and tag the bug report with 'linux-2.6.27'. Also, please specifically note if the issue does or does not appear in the 2.6.26 kernel.

[Bug 190414] Re: Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time.
I have Kubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron (KDE 3.5.9) and it has become dead slow (>4mins) at boot (at the "reading files needed to boot" stage) after a couple of updates a few days ago. Adding clocksource=hpet to my kernel line hasn't solved this at all. I've opened up a thread at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=800878 with some debug info. Could someone please take a look and see if I need to file a new bug report? I'm a total noob and would really appreciate any help in solving this.

I think the problem is that "CONFIG_X86_TSC" is not set in the kernel configuration.

yes clocksource=hpet is working. I'm sorry, it seems like I'd missed Stéphan Kochen's post!

nappsoft : Thanks a lot for all the informations you provide. I suspect that your bug is not the same as the one initially described. According to what you say, your computer takes more than 5 minutes to boot (or does not boot at all) and your problem does not seem to be caused by tsc clocksource like this bug. Therefore, to help both bug reports to get fixed, can you open a new bug report for linux package with a detailed description and the informations that you already provided?

[Bug 190414] Re: Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time.
A few more observations: - As mentioned my old 2.6.24 was working with hard while the hardy kernel didn't work So I tried 2.6.24.4 with my 2.6.24 config, which worked. Then I tried it with config-2.6.24-14-generic what didn't work... Most of the time the system did not even boot (the same as with the official 2.6.24-14-generic kernel). The place where it stopped booting was always the same (have a look at my second-last message). At the end I found out why my old 2.6.24 config did work and the new didn't: Using config-2.6.24-14 and changing CONFIG_M586 to CONFIG_MPENTIUMM (in Menuconfig what changes in fact a few other values, see at the full diff later). So I think that this is not a ubuntu specific bug as the Gutsy- CONFIG_M586.kernel was working on the same machine without any problems... Even though I think that this is an important bug as my Samsung notebook uses the same components as many other centrino notebooks and I doubt that only a few machines are affected... ** Attachment added: "config.diff" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/13097091/config.diff -- Clocksource tsc unstable add 10 seconds to the boot time. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/190414 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
