My openSUSE 11.4 install (kernel-desktop) oopses (almost) every time I unplug my USB audio headset.

I made a kernel crash, but 'crash' claims that the debuginfo can't be found:

worklaptop:/var/crash # crash 2011-03-11-19\:29/System.map-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop 2011-03-11-19\:29/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop 2011-03-11-19\:29/vmcore ... crash: 2011-03-11-19:29/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop: no debugging data available

Where does this path come from? Does gunzip -k /boot/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.gz help?

The path? /var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/ is a directory. it came from the kdump package after the kernel crashed. Within that directory are the following files (all placed there by kdump): README.txt System.map-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop vmcore vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.gz vmlinux-... is an exact copy of the file from /boot. I tried 'crash' as it was provided, and also after I had gunzip'd it. an strace of 'crash' shows that it is failing to find the right debug symbols: .. access("/usr/lib/debug/.build-id/75/6e58827a1e0c4f90c96272f71ccd2e64161fe1.debug", F_OK) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) lseek(5, 18980864, SEEK_SET) = 18980864 read(5, "OspWG\0OspWg\0OSpWG\0GCC: (SUSE Lin"..., 4096) = 4096 lstat("/var", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat("/var/crash", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|S_ISVTX|0777, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 lstat("/var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29", {st_mode=S_IFDIR|0755, st_size=4096, ...}) = 0 open("/var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.debug", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/.debug/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.debug", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/debug//var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.debug", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) open("/usr/lib/debug/var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.debug", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) close(5) = 0 munmap(0x7f0b87a56000, 4096) = 0 open("/var/crash/2011-03-11-19:29/.gdb_history", O_RDONLY) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory) rt_sigprocmask(SIG_BLOCK, NULL, [], 8) = 0 write(1, "\n", 1 ) = 1 write(1, "crash: vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desk"..., 65crash: vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop: no debugging data available ) = 65 write(1, "\n", 1 ) = 1 exit_group(1) = ? as noted in the initial report, I do have the debuginfo packages installed. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Now that I can look at the crash, should I just file a new bug for the crasher?

Yes, please. And make a note here. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

symlinking it worked!

Does this imply a bug in the 'kdump' or 'crash' packages, or in the -debuginfo package?

It's no bug in crash, it works as designed[tm]. But I wonder why kdump didn't copy the debuginfo, too. Can you please attach /etc/sysconfig/kdump (you can remove the comments and empty lines if you like)? Did you install the debuginfo package *before* or *after* the crash has been created? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

However, I feel that doing so should not be necessary. 'crash' should be able to find the debuginfo files (once they are installed), IMO. I humbly request you consider this use-case.

But there is problem with kernel debuginfo packaging. Crash does search for the debuginfo file, but ONLY if the vmlinux file contains no symbols. However, this is not the case with openSUSE vmlinux: $ file /boot/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop /boot/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop: ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV), statically linked, not stripped ^^^^^^^^^^^^ And, indeed, there is a symbol table in that file. So crash does nothing, assuming that the embedded gdb can handle the vmlinux file. But gdb has a different search logic... Anyway, the gdb logic would easily find the debuginfo file by its build-id. The vmlinux file contains a valid NT_GNU_BUILD_ID note: Contents of section .notes: ffffffff8152d288 04000000 14000000 03000000 474e5500 ............GNU. ffffffff8152d298 756e5882 7a1e0c4f 90c96272 f71ccd2e unX.z..O..br.... ffffffff8152d2a8 64161fe1 d... The strace output actually shows that crash tries to open the debuginfo for build-id 756e58827a1e0c4f90c96272f71ccd2e64161fe1. Sadly, the corresponding file is missing under /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/. There are two ways of fixing it: 1. Strip /boot/vmlinux-$ver (quick, but a bit hackish) 2. Provide the missing symlink to /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-$ver.debug under /usr/lib/debug/.build-id/. Michal, I find the packaging quite confusing: 1. /boot/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.gz is contained in all of these packages: - kernel-desktop-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.x86_64.rpm - kernel-desktop-base-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.x86_64.rpm - kernel-desktop-devel-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.x86_64.rpm 2. /usr/lib/debug/boot/vmlinux-2.6.37.1-1.2-desktop.debug is only in kernel-desktop-devel-debuginfo-2.6.37.1-1.2.2.x86_64.rpm 3. kernel-desktop-devel-debuginfo does not contain any other files most notably the link under /usr/lib/debug/.build-id is missing 4. kernel-desktop-devel-debuginfo does not provide debuginfo(build-id) = 756e58827a1e0c4f90c96272f71ccd2e64161fe1 this looks like an omission to me, because all other debuginfo packages have the correct provides (e.g. for kernel modules).
