Created attachment 1036279 [details] strace of ofws Description of problem: On starting ofws daemon I find that the process blocks accessing the USB subsystem. The process is left in uninterruptable sleep. Once in this state there are other side effects which include: * lsusb fails (blocks, un-killable) * long delays experienced on login or running su. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): owfs-server-3.0p0-2.fc22.x86_64 How reproducible: every time. Steps to Reproduce: 0. reboot, making sure owfs service is disabled. Two DS9490R USB-to-1wire adapters plugged in. 1. start owfs from root shell with: /usr/bin/owfs -uall /run/owfs or with: /usr/bin/owfs -u /run/owfs Actual results: owfs blocks. /run/owfs file system does not get mounted. strace reveals that owfs is blocked awaiting return of USB ioctl call. Secondary effects are that now lsusb command fails and logins/su experience delay of about 25 seconds. Same behaviour is shown if I only have a single one-wire adapter connected. I have no other way to access the one-wire bus. Expected results: Expect owfs to lead to one-wire file system being accessible under /run/owfs. Additional info: Running x86_64 on Intel NUC hardware. SELinux is disabled. This is on a system upgraded from Fedora 20 on which owfs worked as expected. Only change was upgrade to Fedora 22. Strace output attached.

Hi, I'm unable to reproduce this with my setup, although I have no DS1490 device. Also, freeze of whole USB subsystem sounds really like kernel problem (owfs is userspace only). Could you please test owfs-3.1p0? It is built in rawhide. If problem still persists with 3.1p0, I'll forward the bugreport upstream. Thanks.
Problem persists with owfs-fs-3.1p0-2.fc23.x86_64 with F23 and kernel 4.2.8-300.fc23.x86_64. Workaround is to explicitly ensure that wire and ds2490 modules are not loaded (using blacklist in modprobe). Owfs works without the wire module by accessing the device via usblib (ie use -u instead of -w1 option to owfs or owserver). My guess is that there's a contention that arises between the wire module and the USB sub system when the one-wire device is accessed. There is a second problem with the owfs package that I'll put in a separate bug report.
Hi, I've forwarded this report to upstream: http://sourceforge.net/p/owfs/mailman/message/34765642/
