[Bug 259638] Re: can't reprofile boot sequence
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. Thanks again, we really appreicate your help and feedback. ** Tags added: cft-2.6.27 -- can't reprofile boot sequence https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259638 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 259638] Re: can't reprofile boot sequence
Hi banewman, I just tried to reproduce this with my machine on a 2.6.24-19 kernel but using the 'profile' option seemed to work here: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ uname -a Linux emiko 2.6.24-19-generic #1 SMP Fri Jul 11 23:41:49 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ cat /proc/version_signature Ubuntu 2.6.24-19.36-generic I removed the 'quiet' and 'splash' options and added the 'profile' option and when I booted I saw (see boot.jpg): * Preparing to profile boot sequence . . . I also looked at the kernel-parameters doc within the kernel source and saw this small excerpt: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/ubuntu-hardy/Documentation$ grep -A8 profile= kernel-parameters.txt profile=[KNL] Enable kernel profiling via /proc/profile Format: [schedule,]number Param: schedule - profile schedule points. Param: number - step/bucket size as a power of 2 for statistical time based profiling. Param: sleep - profile D-state sleeping (millisecs). Requires CONFIG_SCHEDSTATS Param: kvm - profile VM exits. I'm curious what happens if you use something like profile=2. Thanks. ** Attachment added: boot.jpg http://launchpadlibrarian.net/16965062/boot.jpg -- can't reprofile boot sequence https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259638 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

Also, this bug did not have a package associated with it, which is important for ensuring that it gets looked at by the proper developers. You can learn more about finding the right package at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/FindRightPackage . I've classified this bug to be against the 'linux' package. Thanks. ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Sourcepackagename: None = linux Status: New = Incomplete -- can't reprofile boot sequence https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/259638 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

It has never run again. Doing sudo dpkg-reconfigure bootchart, waiting while update-initramfs does its' thing and rebooting doesn't run bootchart again. So the system isn't reading/writing new images...maybe? A clue?
