Comment 2 Fedora Blocker Bugs Application 2015-08-17 16:28:12 UTC
Proposed as a Freeze Exception for 23-beta by Fedora user satellit using the blocker tracking app because:

 workstation is blocking desktop. should function without locking up

Comment 3 Josh Boyer 2015-08-17 20:45:51 UTC
It's probably a bit early to be throwing blocker status at this.  We have a single report on a single machine with zero debug data.  We have no idea how prevalent this really is.

Your report is confusing.  You say the live locks up, but the further data indicates that you installed it to the disk.  So does it lock up when booted in live mode, or does it only lock up when you boot an install from the disk?

After several minutes of what kind of activity does the machine lock up?

When you say EFI and bios, does that mean you changed the boot mode in firmware between boots?

If you boot the debug kernel, is there a backtrace produced?

Did Alpha-1 do this?

I did 2 installs using EFI and then bios boot to 2 different Hard Disks.
saw this on both installs

I will try to do as adamw suggested this morning:journalctl -b -l and see what it shows.

Still unclear.  You saw a lockup after you booted the machine into the HD install, or while you were booted in live but after the install completed?

How did you install to two different hard disks?  Did you swap them out in one machine?

Yes.  We need more data.

Comment 15 Jeremy Rimpo 2015-08-24 15:11:55 UTC
I'm also experiencing lockups when booting into the Alpha Live ISO, though I can bypass the issue by booting into basic graphics mode. This is on a dual Intel/nVidia laptop, and the Intel driver should be the active driver. However, even running in basic graphics mode, I notice the integrated GPU light is on, indicating the nVidia card is powered on.

Comment 16 Jeremy Rimpo 2015-08-24 15:30:26 UTC
I had previously done a dnf upgrade from 22, decided to remove the bumblebee/nvidia drivers due to occasional, random x server crashes, only to run into lockups during boot. So I decided to start fresh and do a clean root install keeping only my /home partition, only to discover the Alpha ISO was ALSO locking up at boot, as per my last post. (Which I bypassed as noted above.)

I then ran into the Alpha FWRaid anaconda issue, which I've just bypassed via updates, so I should have a freshly installed system to test with shortly.

I'll see if I can pull some non-truncated logs.

Comment 17 Adam Williamson 2015-08-24 16:53:29 UTC
Discussed at 2015-08-24 freeze exception review meeting: http://meetbot-raw.fedoraproject.org/fedora-blocker-review/2015-08-24/f23-blocker-review.2015-08-24-16.03.log.txt . We agreed to punt on this one as there isn't sufficient information to really be able to make a call on how significant the issue is, but those of us with Intel systems are planning to try and see if we can reproduce.

Comment 18 Jeremy Rimpo 2015-08-24 17:28:28 UTC
I'm about to upload a log using nomodeset - which produces a working system albeit with vesa running - and the regular boot - which eventually locks up with  (if I remember right) my Caps Lock and Scroll Lock keys blinking.

I think some keys lines are here:

Aug 24 11:48:42 yeesha.rimpo.us kernel: nouveau E[   PFIFO][0000:01:00.0] BIND_ERROR [ UNK00 ]

Meanwhile, the nomodeset/vesa log mostly has errors to due with WAYLAND_DISPLAY not being set, which I'm guessing is expected behavior from the Vesa driver.

journalctl with nomodeset (working) boot

Note loading of nouveau driver in an optimus (dual card) system.
The nvidia card should not normally be enabled at boot, but it seems like nouveau is trying to load anyway...
I'm guessing it fails to then bind to a GPU that is off - but maybe there's more at work.
Is the Intel driver even trying to load?

NOTE that I had a booting and seemingly functional system with bumblebee installed with nvidia drivers. (With random X restarts.)

HOWEVER the discreet gpu light, which is supposed to only turn on when the card is on, is ALWAYS on after initial boot. This is true with nomodeset, bumblebee, or a standard wayland/nouveau boot.

Comment 21 Jeremy Rimpo 2015-08-24 17:43:50 UTC
I should point out that I'm also confused by satellitgo's descriptions. This may not actually be the same problem... I'm never able to actually fully boot and log in. It sounds like satellitgo can, but locks up at some point.

Comment 22 Adam Williamson 2015-08-24 18:04:54 UTC
Jeremy: your error messages are in nouveau, not intel. Please file a separate bug under xorg-x11-drv-nouveau , or even upstream (on freedesktop.org) as more devs are likely to see it there. Please include logs from booting with 'drm.debug=14'. thanks!

Comment 23 Jeremy Rimpo 2015-08-24 18:20:25 UTC

Comment 26 Adam Williamson 2015-08-25 01:27:17 UTC
there is no debug data there and no drm.debug parameter logged in the kernel args. you have to pass drm.debug=14 *on the boot that hangs*, not on the boot where you run the journalctl command.

new 'drm.debug=14" freeze in f23 workstation with intel graphics

Comment 28 Adam Williamson 2015-08-25 15:41:33 UTC
That log still does not have DRM debugging enabled and does not appear to contain any information relating to any crash or hang.

Let me try the instructions once more, step by step:

1. Boot the system
2. At the grub menu, hit 'e'
3. Go down to the line that starts 'linux16' or 'linuxefi'. To the end of the line (after LANG=something, probably) add 'drm.debug=14'
4. Hit F10, let the system boot
5. Log in and wait for the crash/hang to happen
6. Reboot the system (no need to add the drm.debug=14 parameter this time)
7. Log in, open a terminal
8. Become root (e.g. 'sudo su' or just 'su')
9. Run: journalctl -b -1 > crash.log'
10. Attach the file crash.log to this bug

thanks.

Further testing:
May be related to having ipv6 enabled 
I disconnected wireless and then turned off ipv6 on wired connection.
No freezes in 8 hrs so far. (Last items in error.log mention IPv6 MTU) :

Comment 30 Adam Williamson 2015-08-25 22:32:27 UTC
Can you try splitting those two things up? Try it without wireless but with IPv6 on wired, and try it with wireless but without IPv6. Always best to change *one* thing at a time. Thanks.

Comment 31 Josh Boyer 2015-08-25 23:00:59 UTC
And if you're still doing this with whatever kernel came with Alpha, that's probably not a great idea.  Use the -rc8 kernel in updates-testing as it has numerous fixes.

Or put another way, if you isolate it with the Alpha kernel that is excellent.  However the first thing we will ask is to test an updated kernel.

Thank you
you were correct:

I did a 'dnf update kernel' (the -rc8 kernel in updates-testing) 

I am not experiencing any more lockups.

All tests with ff; thunderbird; xchat running
intel NUC i3; 8 GB memory;internal wireless card; 1 TB internal HD; HDMI monitor; USB mouse and keyboard
efi boot with  'drm.debug=14'

tested with:
no wireless + wired ipv4 only
no wireless + wired ipv4 and ipv6
wireless ipv4 only + wired ipv4 and ipv6
wireless ipv4 and ipv6 + wired ipv4 and ipv6

Actually, I just pulled in the rc8 kernel this morning along with several mesa updates, and the nvidia optimus issues appear to be fixed for me. So I suppose I'll forego the new ticket.
