[Bug 478482] New: total freeze
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=478482 Summary: total freeze Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: 32bit OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Kernel AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening@forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: gh55@heinzel.name QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- After updating 10.3 to 11.1 two totally different and independent computers freeze after some hours. My desktop computer (used to be running 24/7 on opensuse 10.3) freezes at about 5 to 6 am (different every day), with no trace in the logfiles. The time is different every day and no cronjob is running at this time. The laptop freezes erratically after a few hours with the CAPS LOCK LED blinking. Both computers were running fine with 10.3. After the freeze described here, power off is the only remedy.

The system ran fine with 11.0 before. Three freezes happened while I was typing into a textarea of this bugzilla. There was disk activity in the background while I was typing, so I suspect it could be related to ReiserFS (which I'm using here). My home is mounted via /dev/mapper/cryptotab_loop0 (just in case it matters). To be able to type this report I've shut down cron and beagle. Raising the priority of this issue to max. -- 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.

BTW: Reports on Internet seem to give the impression that openSUSE 11.1 is completely instable. It may even affect to soon to come SLE 11. -- 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.

I'm looking for kernel oops there. Gerhard, if you switch to console 10, where kernel messages are logged, with Ctrl-Alt-F10 *before* the machine freezes, is there anything interesting after the freeze? You can also take a look at http://en.opensuse.org/Bugs/Kernel for tips about hunting kernel bugs.

Also, a "freeze" means that I cannot even move the mouse any more, not to talk about console switching. On comment #3 and comment #4: Meanwhile it works even with cron re-enabled, and yesterday I even ran some file sharing. So far it works. So I suspect this: On a uniprocessor (my machine) with ReiserFS (and encrypted partitions?) the kernel freezes while having disk activity (and maybe is short of memory). The problem could be interrupts disabled permanently, or simply some bad code (race condition). -- 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.

In the boot messages I noticed a difference regarding "reiserfs: using flush barriers". After a little while (when beagle became active?), I noticed these messages in syslog: kernel: REISERFS warning (device dm-2): jdm-20002 reiserfs_xattr_get: Invalid hash for xattr (user.Beagle) associated with [1919251317 1634026030 0x656c67 UNKNOWN] kernel: REISERFS warning (device dm-2): jdm-20002 reiserfs_xattr_get: Invalid hash for xattr (user.Beagle) associated with [1919251317 1634026030 0x656c67 UNKNOWN] [...] So I conclude that there is some type of data corruption on ReiserFS mounted via cryptotab_loop0. That could mean: 1) The data got corrupted, but undetected in openSUSE 11.0 (unlikely IMHO) 2) The data got corrupted, causing a freeze in openSUSE 11.1 (which would be bad) 3) The data got corrupted as a consequence of the freeze (which would be also bad) 4) The old kernel did not detect (or report) this type of corruption, but froze instead I don't know if the problem was really fixed in the new kernel, but obviously the problem is related to beagle-index, reiserfs, and cryptotab_loop My /home is mounted as: /dev/mapper/cryptotab_loop0 on /home type reiserfs (rw,acl,user_xattr) In reply to comment #8: I'll have to see whether the current kernel (2.6.27.19-3.2-pae #1 SMP 2009-02-25 15:40:44 +0100 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) still freezes. -- 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.

Gerhard, I can see Beagle daemon running on your system too (PID 4445 in the log attached in comment #9, probably run from /etc/cron.daily). I can also see that some ReiserFS filesystem is most probably mounted. I am also interested in the output of mount(8) command on your host to see what FSs are mounted and where. -- 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.
