Description

I've completed some more testing and it appears as if the noapic option has actually helped a bit - I've only had one freeze with the option added and none since disabling bluetoothd in addition to adding noapic (having bluetooth disabled without the noapic option still causes a freeze). There are some bluetooth related errors in the dmesg output: btusb_intr_complete: hci0 urb ffff88010c6497b8 failed to resubmit (1) btusb_bulk_complete: hci0 urb ffff88010c649188 failed to resubmit (1) btusb_bulk_complete: hci0 urb ffff88010c648c60 failed to resubmit (1) btusb_intr_complete: hci0 urb ffff8800b1f599c8 failed to resubmit (1) btusb_bulk_complete: hci0 urb ffff8800b1f58a50 failed to resubmit (1) btusb_bulk_complete: hci0 urb ffff8800b1f59ef0 failed to resubmit (1) Perhaps there is more than one related problem? Perhaps my previous comment was a bit premature, even with bluetooth disabled I've just had a freeze. One other interesting thing to note is that if you are listening to music at the point where the system freezes then the last 1 or 2 seconds of audio is repeated indefinitely. I'm still not sure what is causing this loop but any suggestions would be welcome. I'm seeing this behavior as well on F12. The problem seems to involve any sort of heavy file IO. I get this if a try to copy a large file, regardless of source and destination (NFS, local disk, USB drive).
The speed of the drive and network connection doesn't seem to matter. I see this if I use a wired or wireless connection to NFS for example.
The copy starts fine, after a few seconds then it (once the cache is full?), things fall apart. This also happens if I do something like
dd if=/dev/zero of=big-file bs=1M count=1024
The computer eventually comes back to life once the copy is done (it takes a long time usually).
If I run vmstat during the operation, the number of things it shows in uninterruptible sleep jumps to between 4 and 6 once the machine starts flaking out.
I don't see this if I have it do synchronized IO though:
dd oflag=dsync if=/dev/zero of=big-file bs=1M count=1024
Is there something I can provide to help diagnose this?
Thanks.
I am also seeing this in Fedora 14 (and have also seen it in Ubuntu 10.10, but not Debian Squeeze). It happens to me with almost any USB device including my external USB sound card (powerwave) and anything that uses the USB Serial driver (for USB to RS-232 adapters). Happens almost every time and can even get stuck during boot if I have one of these plugged in at the time. This message is a reminder that Fedora 13 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 13. It is Fedora's policy to close all bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 'version' of '13'. Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 13's end of life. Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 13 is end of life. If you would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this bug to the applicable version. If you are unable to change the version, please add a comment here and someone will do it for you. Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete. The process we are following is described here: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping Fedora 13 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2011-06-25. Fedora 13 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug. If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version. Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed. I am having a similar issue on RHEL-6, up to date with updates. |
