[opensuse] Kernel Stable on leap-15.0
I'm sure I am not the only one that does not use the Dist. kernel. Has anyone noticed that the stable kernel change from 4.18 to 4.18.1 causes the mkinitrd process to take over 10-15 minutes as opposed to 1-2? And it seems to be the i915 drm driver that causes this crazy thing? If it is removed from the config, all is normal. Could this be a Dracut bug? I suspect the kernel, but who am I to say. For the 10 minutes or so it appears to be hung up, ps shows: 2626 pts/8 S+ 0:00 make -f ./scripts/Makefile.build obj=arch/x86/boot install 2627 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/sh /sbin/installkernel 4.18.1 arch/x86/boot/bzImage System.map /boot 2642 pts/11 Ss 0:00 /bin/bash 2659 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4581 pts/1 Ss 0:00 /bin/bash 4620 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4622 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4623 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4624 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4625 pts/8 S+ 0:09 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4627 pts/8 R+ 1:47 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4682 pts/8 S+ 0:00 /bin/bash --norc /usr/bin/dracut --hostonly --force /boot/initrd-4.18.1 4.18.1 4683 pts/8 S+ 0:00 cat /lib/modules/4.18.1//kernel/drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915.ko 4684 pts/8 S+ 0:00 tr -cd [:print:] Regards Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

Yeah - I'll bring the system up on the 4.18.5 kernel and send you a new one.

Building an initrd takes the same 25-30seconds.
Thanks for that Per. Your config file works fine for me as far as my issue goes. So something in my config file other than the i915 is the problem. Very strange. Pre 4.18.1 does not show the issue for me. 4.18.0 is fine. Everything builds and runs just fine for me. It's just the making the initrd file for my kernel. Obviously it IS in my config file though.

No, but I have some SuperMicro boards that will not boot 4.18 at all. If I boot a 4.14 kernel and then "reboot", I can boot to the 4.18 kernel, but I cannot boot into it from cold start (I only left it for 10 minutes, so if it really takes 15 -- it might actually work -- that that is acceptable given 4.14 boots in 12 seconds) I will be happy when someone actually figures out where all of the new security checks and retropine workarounds are spinning endlessly so progress can be made in this area.

My 10-15 minute wait is not booting that kernel, it is the process of installing it with a "make install" or even an RPM install where it builds the initrd file. After the long wait it boots and runs just fine for me. I'm running an AMD Ryzen 1700 though. Maybe more modern?

Just out of interest, how many kernels do you have in /boot? Also, what is your "multiversion.kernels" setting in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf While I admire AMD's processors I always seem to end up with Intel. -- A: Yes. > Q: Are you sure? >> A: Because it reverses the logical flow of conversation. >>> Q: Why is top posting frowned upon? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org

There is seldom more than 2. The one I'm running and the one I'm building.
Also, what is your "multiversion.kernels" setting in /etc/zypp/zypp.conf
multiversion.kernels = latest,latest-1,running
While I admire AMD's processors I always seem to end up with Intel.
I actually stay away from Intel processors as much as possible. Regards Mark -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
