Comment 1 Tom Gundersen 2010-12-11 19:10:04 UTC
I'm not on Fedora/RedHat, so take this with a grain of salt:

I noticed that this problem is systemd specific, when booting with SysVInit (ceteris paribus) it does not occur.

@Nicolas: maybe worth checking what happens if you do not use systemd?

Comment 2 Tom Gundersen 2010-12-12 02:06:04 UTC
The problem occurs when CONFIG_RT_GROUP_SCHED is enabled, and should also apply to any other RT, non-root processes.

The reason should be clear from Documentation/scheduler/sched-rt-group.txt.

Comment 3 Nicolas Mailhot 2010-12-12 09:28:53 UTC
Hi Tom

Thanks very much for the advice. Unfortunately I'm not sure switching to and from systemd is really possible anymore in rawhide, with all the stuff being half converted. If I read you correctly systemd group scheduling broke pulseaudio rt scheduling. That makes it something for Lennart to fix :(

Comment 4 Tom Gundersen 2010-12-12 13:15:38 UTC
Yup, I'm sure Lennart will know what to do.

In the meantime, you can avoid the problem by disabling the cpu cgroup from /etc/systemd/system.conf. That is, change

#DefaultControllers=cpu

into

DefaultControllers=

Comment 5 Lennart Poettering 2011-02-08 08:04:28 UTC
Fixed now in systemd git and rtkit git. Will be uploaded to rawhide shortly.

Comment 6 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2011-02-18 11:24:59 UTC
After installing the new upstream packages i found this error messages in message.log

Is this bad or not?

Comment 7 Lennart Poettering 2011-02-18 12:09:57 UTC
This finally completely fixed with the rtkit and systemd packages I uploaded yesterday and which are currently waiting in bodhi. (rtkit 0.10, systemd 18)

Ok, with rtkit-0.10-1.fc15.x86_64 and systemd-18-1.fc15.x86_64 the bug is fixed.

PS:
Give it  a site or a mail-list where i can ask questions about funktion and work of systemd?

I do not see it.  I do have now systemd-18-1.fc16.x86_64 and rtkit-0.10-1.fc16.x86_64 and this is from the last boot:

[   21.446122] rtkit-daemon[861]: Successfully called chroot.

Is this a diffence between f15 and f16 or the bug is still there?  If yes that should this be reopened?

Are you sure you rebooted after upgrading?

Ist it possible that pam_systemd is not enabled for you? Could you run "authconfig" and exit it, so that the PAM files are written correctly, then relogin?

If this all doesn't help, please paste the following two outputs:

cat /proc/$(pidof pulseaudio)/cgroup
cat /proc/$(pidof rtkit-daemon)/cgroup

Thanks!

I am sure.  A machine was rebooted to run a new kernel.

I think that you mean "authconfig --update", right?  Running "authconfig"
by itself dumped 150 lines of help.

That could be it.  AFAICT "Failed to make thread 1874 RT: Operation not permitted" messages were showing up on an attempt to start a desktop session
and "updating" /etc/pam.d/ files apparently made that error to go away.
What was supposed to force that operation?  This is an updated rawhide installation and not "from scratch".

> If this all doesn't help, please paste the following two outputs:

These differ, at least now, by one line:
1:name=systemd:/user/michal/1c  in the first case and
1:name=systemd:/system/rtkit-daemon.service  in the second one.

Yupp, that should work too. I was mostly actually thinking of authconfig-gtk, which works without args. But it's all doing the same thing.

Well, tbh I am not sure what part is responsible for rewriting those files. Might make sense to file a bug against the authconfig package to make sure atuthconfig executes the same command during upgrade or so, if it doesn't do so yet.

More interesting are actually the lines with ":cpu:" in the middle. They should both have a suffix of / if everything works correctly.

Anyway, I am assuming that the issue is fixed by the PAM config file rewrite. Please file a bug against authconfig to ensure that this rewrite is done automatically.

In both cases they look like this: "4:cpu:/".

I am not absolutely sure.  We never heard from a person who filed bug 679091 and, that looked like a new installation and not an update.

All right. Bug 679517.

That looks correct.

pls reopen the threat again.

Comment 21 Lennart Poettering 2011-03-02 13:33:35 UTC
raveit65, can you check whether 679517 fixes your problem?

Comment 22 Wolfgang Ulbrich 2011-03-02 16:58:53 UTC
No, i don't think btw i'm not shure, because i updated systemd to 19.1 at

Mar 01 16:50:52 Updated: systemd-19-1.fc15.x86_64

Next reboot was at Mar  1 23:15:00

But in my messages log i found this entries since Mar  1 23:15:00.

Today sound works, rtkit does not print any error messages, and pulseaudio /proc/<pid>/cgroup has the the following info:

I'm also seeing this. Have tried the authconfig fix to no avail.

This package has changed ownership in the Fedora Package Database.  Reassigning to the new owner of this component.

In an attempt to rule out SELinux I did "restorecon -Rv /" , rebooted and still persists.

Comment 31 Raymond Rodgers 2011-11-28 01:57:16 UTC
(In reply to comment #30)

I'm getting a similar problem under Fedora 16 with user '1000' instead. Another symptom in my case is that I don't have any audio support once logged in. (Oddly enough, my audio works at the login screen.) Whatever the issue is, it's causing my system (an AMD Phenom II 1090T with 16 GB RAM) to bog down without even running anything.

Below is one full cycle of logged messages from just after the last "denying request" to the end of the next cycle. Just as a point of interest, the machine that this is occurring on is a desktop without BlueTooth support, and yet I see messages related to BlueTooth and bluez in this output.

Ping what's the current status of this? Are you still hitting this issue?

Comment 33 T-Gergely 2012-04-15 08:46:33 UTC

"authconfig --updateall" didn't help here:

The workaround ("DefaultControllers=") in comment#4 works though:

Comment 34 Lennart Poettering 2012-10-30 17:51:48 UTC
This appears to be specific to F15, which is not supported anymore. Closing.

Please reopen if this issue continues to exist on newer installations.

Comment 36 Lennart Poettering 2015-06-09 13:10:54 UTC
I am pretty sure the right fix for this is bug 1229700.

Comment 37 Lennart Poettering 2015-06-17 23:43:33 UTC
Closing because bug 1229700 resolves the issue.

Comment 38 Shawn L 2020-08-06 01:49:04 UTC
Finding the same error in my logs on RHEL 8.2
