freeze: Leap 15.5 as vmware guest
Last modified: 2024-02-15 16:30:39 UTC
Created attachment 871792 [details] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference Hello all, I don't know exactly how long the problem has existed. The Suse Leap VM is started about once every 4-6 weeks to keep it up to date. A week ago and so far the hanger. = Environment = == Host == Tumbleweed, rel. 20240109-2681.1. kernel 6.6.10-1-default Vmware player 17.5.0 vmmon-only/vmmon.ko vmnet-only/vmnet.ko from https://github.com/mkubecek/vmware-host-modules - built/loaded for kernel 6.6.10-1-defaul without errors == Guest == Suse leap 15.5, kernel 5.14.21-150500.55.39-default. Autologin in plasma => guest frozen. boot into level 3, login, startx => guest frozen Guest log is attached. If further information is required - I will be happy to provide it. Regards, temir.
Tried to start Guest with kernel 5.14.21-150500.55.36-default - X also hangs.
Created attachment 871796 [details] complete system log from boot
Surprise: 3D acceleration switched off - X11 starts, autologin works. Boot log attached.

It could be a regression that has been very recently fixed. KOTD seems still outdated, so I'm triggering the build from the latest git branch. It's being built in OBS home:tiwai:bsc1218738 repo. Once after the build finishes (takes an hour or so), the package will appear at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/bsc1218738/pool/ Could you give it a try later?
Yes, of course
Hello, unfortunately it's not good news, the new kernel doesn't bring any improvement either. Log messages.g4f5ea9d.txt will be uploaded soon. Regards, temir.

I mean, without 3D it works with reduced resolution, with 3D there are kernel errors, and I can see only a black screen
Do you see the kernel Oops as found in the report with the test kernel?
(In reply to Takashi Iwai from comment #10) > Do you see the kernel Oops as found in the report with the test kernel? Ah, I saw you attached the output. It's there.
I'm building another test kernel with the revised fix patch. It's being built in OBS home:tiwai:bsc1218738-2 repo. Once after the build finishes, the package will be available at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/bsc1218738-2/pool/ Please give it a try later again.
The new kernel-default-5.14.21-150500.2.1.gc9f7605 lets the guest start the X11 with 3D switched on. Some trace messages are still present, see attachment messages.gc9f7605.txt. Good job, we are slowly but surely getting closer to the final solution.

Maybe you need additional information about the host, such as graphics card / driver, or the VM's vmx file?
Thanks for quick testing! Now yet another revised patch and rebuild of a new kernel. It's (unsurprisingly) in OBS home:tiwai:bsc1218738-3 repo, which will appear later at http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/bsc1218738-3/pool/ Please check it out later.
Tested, trace comes after: Hardware name: VMware, Inc. VMware Virtual Platform/440BX System log for kernel-default-devel-5.14.21-150500.2.1.g536c93d will be attached as messages.g536c93d.txt.

Thanks, now I kicked the latest patch into OBS home:tiwai:bsc1218738-4 repo. Please check it out later: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/tiwai:/bsc1218738-4/pool/
Thank you very much, the goal has been achieved! - no more traces in the syslog, see the attachment "syslog for kernel-default-5.14.21-150500.1.1.g111c798". Should I close the report as solved or wait until the fix appears in the regular Suse kernel?

Good to hear! Ali, please go ahead with the latest v5 patch. We'll close this entry once when the patch gets submitted / merged to SLE15-SP5 branch.
Understood. Many thanks to everyone involved, that was really quick. Best Kind Of Regards, temir.
Let's close.
