Description of problem: i have an Arduino USB device connected to a USB port... an application reads from the ttyUSBx device assigned to it... When i disconnect+reconnect the Arduino, the multi-threaded application hangs in state Zl with 1 as parent PID... it needs a SIGKILL to remove it... but: the application was supposed to find arduino's new device ttyUSBy... ttyUSBx is not re-used, when i disconnect the arduino again, although nobody uses ttyUSBx anymore (at least no application)... -arne Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.27.24-170.2.68.fc10.x86_64 How reproducible: tried it twice (rebooted between both tries) - and both failed Steps to Reproduce: 1. pull the USB plug 2. put it back in 3. wait for the application to close the (now dead) device 4. then the kerneloops should happen Actual results: http://www.kerneloops.org/submitresult.php?number=435696 Expected results: there should be no kerneloops Additional info: here r some more log lines: May 30 17:48:30 vaako kernel: usb 2-1: Product: FT232R USB UART May 30 17:48:30 vaako kernel: usb 2-1: Manufacturer: FTDI May 30 17:48:30 vaako kernel: usb 2-1: SerialNumber: A70063G2 May 30 17:49:16 vaako kernel: BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at 0000000000000088
kerneloops.org is dead, can you post the oops from your logs?
Created attachment 346614 [details] missing kerneloops (kerneloops.org down?)...
This is almost certainly fixed in kernel-2.6.27.4-75 which is now in updates-testing.
i tested 2.6.29.4-75: Installed Packages kernel.x86_64 2.6.29.4-75.fc10 installed kernel-devel.x86_64 2.6.29.4-75.fc10 installed kernel-firmware.noarch 2.6.29.4-75.fc10 installed kernel-headers.x86_64 2.6.29.4-75.fc10 installed but: pppoe didnt work anymore... i use an onboard ethernet device (the board: Asrock, ALiveDual-eSATA2): Jun 8 07:27:11 vaako kernel: eth0: RTL8168b/8111b at 0xffffc20010a7a000, 00:19: 66:5a:cd:ea, XID 38000000 IRQ 43 Jun 8 07:27:59 vaako pppoe[2355]: Timeout waiting for PADO packets and i forgot to test if that USB bug persists in 2.6.29.4-75... :-( -arne
Created attachment 346849 [details] kerneloops with updates-testing's kernel i found strength to try it again and found that the updates-testing kernel has a oops, too... at least on my box... i attached it... now i use 2.6.27.21-170.2.56.fc10.x86_64 again, which works fine with my eth0+usb devices... :-) -arne
with the kernel boot option "pci=nomsi" the .29 kernel likes my eth0 device, but: it still makes a kernel oops when i pull arduino's USB plug: http://www.kerneloops.org/submitresult.php?number=447371 what can i do? -arne
This is fixed in 2.6.29.5
ok now (with 2.6.29.5) there is no kernel oops, when i disconnect the USB device... -arne
This message is a reminder that Fedora 10 is nearing its end of life. Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining and issuing updates for Fedora 10. 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 '10'. 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 10'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 10 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
was fixed with 2.6.29.5... -arne
