[opensuse-kernel] OOM killer in 4.7
by Olaf Hering 14 Sep '16

14 Sep '16

It happend now the third time that the OOM killer kicks in with current TW and kernel 4.7. This never happend with my selfcompiled 4.5. Any idea if FireFox just leaks memory and deserves to die, or if the kernel is broken? Olaf

[opensuse-kernel] USB flash don't work with MSI 760GM-P21(FX) (MS-7641) & kernel ≥ 3.16
by Dmitriy Perlow 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

Hello! Sorry if off-topic. It isn't a bugreport. It is a request for help to write a bug report. Recently I've upgraded my PC from Biostar TF560 A2+ to MSI 760GM-P21(FX) (MS-7641) and found USB flash drives not working. `lsusb` output is just fine, `dmesg` repeats "usb 2-5: reset high-speed USB device number 3 using ehci-pci". The issue reproduces at openSUSE 13.2 (desktop-3.16), Leap 42.1 (vanilla- & default-4.1) & TW (default-4.7) but it can't be reproduced at openSUSE 13.1 (desktop-3.12) & Kubuntu 16.04.01 (4.4). STR: openSUSE, kernel ≥ 3.16, MSI 760GM-P21(FX) (MS-7641), any USB flash drive. Expected result: /dev/sdxN, mounting etc. Actual result: sometimes there are no /dev/sdxN only /dev/sdx is present, sometimes /dev/sdxN is present but can't be mounted with timeout error, sometimes it can be mounted but file operations (`ls`) take minutes. `dmidecode` output is attached. Anu help is welcomed! -- Best regards, Dmitriy Perlow R&D chemical engineer Lekpharm JLLC

[opensuse-kernel] initrd generation during RPM install
by Andrei Borzenkov 07 Sep '16

07 Sep '16

I thought we have deferred initrd generation to posttrans. I just updated TW and initrd was regenerated 4 times - after kernel-default - after virtualbox kmp - after udev - after all packages have been installed Does it work as intended or something is missing? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org

It does close it. I do not know whether it sends a notification to the author. Jason? Thanks, Michal

[opensuse-kernel] Could CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK be enabled in the TW builds?
by Jason DeRose 22 Aug '16

22 Aug '16

Hello there! I was hoping it would possible to enable CONFIG_DRM_AMDGPU_CIK in the stable kernel builds? This would allow AMD Hawaii owners to use the new "amdgpu" drivers. As it stands, those wanting reasonable 3D performance can't upgrade past kernel 4.4 because the proprietary "fglrx" driver is obsoleted in later versions, leaving "radeon" as the only choice. I have compiled locally with this config setting and the amdgpu driver seems to work pretty well. I don't think this would affect anyone negatively as users would still need to manually disable the "radeon" driver and pass the kernel parameter to enable amdgpu on experimental hardware before the driver would be chosen.

[opensuse-kernel] Multiversions for KMP?
by Andrei Borzenkov 16 Aug '16

16 Aug '16

Currently virtualbox drivers crash with 4.7 kernel; but when I booted 4.6 I found that kernel modules are gone. Which is understandable as virtualbox was updated in the meantime. Was multiversion support for KMPs ever considered? This cannot be really done right now as far as I understand beca -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kernel] Opensuse TW kernel-default/kernel-vanilla builds based on Kernel:Stable report 'failed'
by lists＠ssl-mail.com 01 Aug '16

01 Aug '16

These builds https://build.opensuse.org/project/monitor/Kernel:stable?arch_x86_64=1&defa… are reporting failed. It's now affecting a number of users for a day+ as I was told. As I understand it the builds are running out of disk space. I also need to get a patch added to the builds to fix a Xen problem but that's a different problem, and can't be fixed until this one is. Can an admin fix the problem and retrigger the builds? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org
