Linux 3.7-rc7

Linux 3.7-rc7

[Linus Torvalds]

A week ago, I had even considered skipping -rc7 entirely as things had
been so calm, but decided that there was little reason to hurry the
release.

And oh, how sadly right I was. -rc7 is out now, and is not at all
smaller than the previous rc's, and in fact slightly scarier. For some
reason the block layer came up on the radar, and there are md, scsi
and generic block layer changes in there. So we definitely want
another week of testing, and hopefully things really are solid.

There's also a few filesystem fixes (reiserfs, xfs and ext3) and
various other driver updates (sound, networking and drm).

Shortlog appended. Go out and test,

Hello,

JFYI: Yet Another Suspend Breakage, it seems (hopefully someone
can contribute to and further nail down this issue).


Working:
vmlinuz-3.7.0-rc5-00068-gc5e35d6 (HEAD possibly unknown?)

Failing:
vmlinuz-3.7.0-rc7-00179-g2db18aa (HEAD 3c46f3d6406b1d0c53575774b2d1fd013cd7f76f)


Athlon XP 32bit VIA 8K5A2+.


Florian Fainelli (1):
      x86/ce4100: Fix pm_poweroff

sounds like it *might* happen to be a candidate (I could try to add a
revert on top, of certain likely candidates).


I started some initial pm debugging (Documentation/power/basic-pm-debugging.txt), and it started hanging once progressing from "devices" to "platform"
in /sys/power/pm_test .

I could do more invasive debugging (and unloading modules at random, too),
however given that I'm currently spending almost days
debugging my third(!) non-working USB storage device in one year,
I'm somewhat less inclined.
As a side note, support status in (admittedly terribly complex,
and certainly very challenging given Windows' usual dirty non-spec tricks
in this area as well) USB storage areas seems to be nothing short of *terrible*.
At the current rate, there's an almost one-in-three chance to end up
with a dud when shopping for storage devices, it seems.
This situation should DEFINITELY see improvement,
ideally via a concerted effort (and finally get those lazy vendors
involved, too!).

It really cannot be that hard to buy devices at random
and plug into a large selection of random hardware
to verify that everything works in a most compatible way!!
Internet forums are full of stories about device failures on *Linux*,
with some of the usual recommendations being
"oh yeah, you need to disable ehci_hcd" (what a terrible "workaround")
or "use irqpoll" (dito)
[none of which helped in my two remaining cases].

So, all the usual problems (suspend breakage, USB storage) alive and kicking...

Crawling back into my corner,

That can only matter if you select support for CONFIG_X86_INTEL_CE
("CE4100 TV platform") which you should never do unless you actually
compile for that platform.

So it's something else (or you have an insane config file). Bisection
would be wonderful.

OK, nevermind.

At least the config file part of my side seems to be sane ;)

Will try script to unload half of all drivers etc.
(heavy amounts of bisection wouldn't be joyful on this box).


I failed to mention the effects:
Suspend starts, disk does spin down, yet display backlight stays
until finally monitor blanks.

Thanks,

Unloading *all* unloadable modules didn't help.

Re: [YASB] Re: Linux 3.7-rc7

[Andreas Mohr]

Hi,

got through all steps after all, and the ghost vanished.

Perhaps I did some silly mistake (marked that original master HEAD
as "bad" despite not actually having run that but rather some local
seemingly innocuous modifications - that will teach me for sure...).

Or perhaps it was something about the weird (to put it mildly) gcc ICEs
that I got when doing next bisection build on *some* of those kernels...
(i.e., some earlier effects from that, thus causing the problem)
A memtest run would be in order...
(fortunately I'm one generation post magnetic core memory on this "box" :-))

Just saw the -rc8 announce, thus I wanted to clarify status now,
but I'm still only 98% solid about this bisection result here.
Probably best to go straight ahead to -rc8.
