log of strace hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes
Could you test this against hal-0.4.5; I've made some fixes to the callout code that I think will fix this. 0.4.5 is available in both Rawhide and as a FC3 update. Thanks, David Created attachment 109739 [details]

log of: strace hald --daemon=no
above two logs are from hal-0.4.5-1, still seems to lock up. Created attachment 109741 [details]
*correct* log of: strace hald --daemon=no
Is the hald process left in the D state? There is no hal-hotplug-map callout in the latest hal in Rawhide so I can now close this bug :-) Anyway, now that hal is more careful wrt handling hardware, this problem shouldn't occur anymore. If it does, feel free to reopen this bug. |
From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041220 Epiphany/1.4.7 Description of problem: hald started freezing on me after a hard reboot on the hal-hotplug-map callout. I completely removed and reinstalled hal in case something had become corrupted (yes, using a journalad FS, XFS in particular) but that changed nothing. An strace on the executable shows it freezing after forking the callout and calling write(). The callout finishes and is left in a zombie state. Presumably (I don't know the code) HAL is expecting to write something to the child and is getting stuck in a race condition when it exits unexpectedly. Will attach a log of: strace /usr/bin/hald --daemon=no --verbose=yes Because HAL never finishes initializing, no HAL-using components work. In particular, Nautilus/gnome-vfs-daemon start behaving very badly. (Will file a separate bug.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): hal-0.4.2.cvs20041210-1 dbus-0.22-12 dbus-0.22-12 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. start HAL 2. 3. Additional info:
