Message-ID: List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=9586 Bug ID: 9586 Summary: usbmount: usbmount slows down the system... to a state of unsusable... Product: buildroot Version: unspecified Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P5 Component: Other Assignee: unassigned at buildroot.uclibc.org Reporter: lipkegu at gmail.com CC: buildroot at uclibc.org Target Milestone: --- When selecting the package usbmount "we say USB" the package tries every 2 seconds to remount the rootfs "/" and every 2 seconds all usb drives which results in a state where the system begins to lag. In my situation im using the bkuhls/kodi17 branch which is merged into a clean cloned buildroot-upstream. Kodi gets lagging and the CPu usage is always at 42% and Drive-leds alwys active. the sence is clear to me... "mount and unmount" usb drives. But now we can get problems with the drives power management capabilities. Packages like hdidle cant bring the drives into a state where we can set them into standby. to reproduce the problem: - clone a clean environment of buildroot. - put a ui for example kodi + samba + dropbear + usbmount - build the environment and let it boot then wait also 10 minutes. - in the 10 minutes the system gets unresponseable for every 2 seconds. - after seeing the problem... (remounting all devices) disable usbmount and reboot your test box and repeat the steps without usbmount. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
