I don't seem to use it correctly.

Code: Select all

fienix@Fienix:~$ lspci
bash: lspci: command not found
fienix@Fienix:~$ 
Synaptic doesn't have it. I'll try Ubuntu later.

The command "lspci" doesn't work on Fienix because it isn't included in the img. You can install it with "apt install pciutils" as root.

I had tried "apt-get install lspci." Probably too late for me to (re?)learn how to use apt.

Now "lspci" works, but says nothing about "SI" or "NI," only that it is Cape Verde PRO [Radeon HD 7750/8740 / R7 250E]. I already knew it was 7000 series, and when I look that up it says "Southern Islands," so now I know what SI and NI (6000 series) stand for. Thanks. How long will I remember?

Thanks for your answer. Great, that you still use the Firepro.

Many thanks for your answer. It seems, that SI graphics cards aren’t affected by the boot issue.

Hi All,

I compiled the latest Git kernel today. Unfortunately Xorg always restarts again and again on the X5000. The X1000 isn't affected.

I bisected today.
  1. Code: Select all

    git bisect start
  2. Code: Select all

    powerpc/mm: Move the linear_mapping_mutex to the ifdef where it is used
    
    The mutex linear_mapping_mutex is defined at the of the file while its
    only two user are within the CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG block.
    A compile without CONFIG_MEMORY_HOTPLUG set fails on PREEMPT_RT because
    its mutex implementation is smart enough to realize that it is unused.
    
    Move the definition of linear_mapping_mutex to ifdef block where it is
    used.

I was able to revert the first bad commit.

Unfortunately the revert of the first bad commit doesn't solve the issue.

I reverted the first PowerPC updates for the kernel 5.13 with the following command:

Code: Select all

git revert c70a4be130de333ea079c59da41cc959712bb01c -m 1
After that, Xorg works without any problems. This issue is somewhere in the PowerPC udpates.

I wasn't able to revert the first bad commit.

The first bad commit is a part of the PowerPC updates 5.13-1.

Xorg doesn't start anymore in a virtual e5500 QEMU machine with Fedora 28 and restarts again and again in a virtual e5500 QEMU machine with MintPPC.

I reported this issue to the PowerPC kernel developers today.

Christophe wrote: I'm not sure you can conclude anything here. There is a problem in that commit, but it is fixed by 525642624783 ("powerpc/signal32: Fix erroneous SIGSEGV on RT signal return") which is the last commit of powerpc-5.13-1.

So any bisect from there will for sure point to 887f3ceb51cd ("powerpc/signal32: Convert do_setcontext[_tm]() to user access block") but that's unconclusive. If the problem is still there at the HEAD of powerpc-5.13-1, the problem is likely somewhere else.

I think you need to do the bisect again with a cherry-pick of 525642624783 at each step.

As you suspect the problem to be specific to powerpc, I can do

git bisect start -- arch/powerpc

You said that powerpc-5.13-1 is bad so you can narrow the search I think:

git bisect bad powerpc-5.13-1 or git bisect bad c70a4be130de333ea079c59da41cc959712bb01c
git bisect good 887f3ceb51cd3~

Thanks

OK, I will try it again.
  1. Code: Select all

    git bisect start -- arch/powerpc
  2. Code: Select all

    git bisect good 887f3ceb51cd3~
  3. Code: Select all

  5. git bisect bad (NISLANDS_SMC_HW_PERFORMANCE_LEVEL levels[1]) It stops after loading the dtb and uImage. Maybe a third bug.
OK, there is another issue after the second bisecting step. The boot stops after loading the dtb and uImage file. I can't solve 2 issues with bisecting at the same time.

I reported the result to the PowerPC kernel developers today.
