expected usb device behaviour, after normal (no usb connected) boot
I'm seeing booting hang if my usb card reader is attached. It works fine if plugged in after booting. The device description in /proc/bus/usb/devices is below: T: Bus=01 Lev=01 Prnt=01 Port=00 Cnt=01 Dev#= 4 Spd=480 MxCh= 0 D: Ver= 2.00 Cls=00(>ifc ) Sub=00 Prot=00 MxPS=64 #Cfgs= 1 P: Vendor=07cc ProdID=0500 Rev=91.38 S: Manufacturer=USB2.0 S: Product=CardReader S: SerialNumber=1234600 C:* #Ifs= 1 Cfg#= 1 Atr=80 MxPwr=500mA I: If#= 0 Alt= 0 #EPs= 2 Cls=08(stor.) Sub=06 Prot=50 Driver=usb-storage E: Ad=81(I) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms E: Ad=02(O) Atr=02(Bulk) MxPS= 512 Ivl=0ms An update has been released for Fedora Core 3 (kernel-2.6.12-1.1372_FC3) which may contain a fix for your problem. Please update to this new kernel, and report whether or not it fixes your problem. If you have updated to Fedora Core 4 since this bug was opened, and the problem still occurs with the latest updates for that release, please change the version field of this bug to 'fc4'. Thank you. This bug has been automatically closed as part of a mass update. It had been in NEEDINFO state since July 2005. If this bug still exists in current errata kernels, please reopen this bug. There are a large number of inactive bugs in the database, and this is the only way to purge them. Thank you. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041111 Firefox/1.0 Description of problem: When a USB stick/disk (non-bootable) is connected to the system prior to boot, the system will crash shortly after bootup with an oops complaining: 'kernel BUG at mm/slab.c:1453!' While this report is specific to 2.6.9-1.{681,678}_FC3smp, I have had trouble with FC2 x86_64 2.6.5-1.358, 2.6.8-1.521, 2.6.9-1{3,6} and RH9 (Shrike) 2.4.20-31.9smp. In these cases, the system will simply refuse to boot, specifically the systems will POST, finish additional device BIOS loads, then black screen...no OS info. To resolve the problem, simply remove the USB device and reboot normally, then reattach for normal use. USB sticks/disks tested: 0. Sandisk Cruzer-mini 128MB 1. iOmega Mini-drive 128MB 2. Maxtor OneTouch 300GB (3 separate drives) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.9-1.{681,678}_FC3smp How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. power off system 2. attach USB stick/drive 3. attempt to boot machine Actual Results: kernel: slab error in kmem_cache_destroy(): cache `scsi_cmd _cache': Can't free all objects kernel: [<02140807>] kmem_cache_destroy+0x99/0x132 ... kernel: kernel BUG at mm/slab.c:1453! Expected Results: normal boot, followed by normal USB mass storage registration, i.e.: USB Mass Storage support registered. scsi.agent[4809]: disk at /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d. 7/usb1/1-8/1-8:1.0/host2/2:0:0:0 fstab-sync[4859]: added mount point /media/usbdisk for /dev/sda1 Additional info: I have not checked this against Enterprise Linux 3u2.x or 3u3.x, but hopefully, I will get around to it.
