[sles15sp5-QR][Build 137.7][x86_64 only] with ram size=1GB/2GB, vm panic/hang during the TEXTMODE installation phase if libyui kernel boot parameters added
Last modified: 2024-04-18 08:46:13 UTC
##Description The issue can be seen if we add below LIBYUI kernel boot parameters during the installation: extend=libyui-rest-api YUI_HTTP_PORT=39101 YUI_HTTP_REMOTE=1 YUI_REUSE_PORT=1 And the full boot parameter line is "initrd=initrd splash=silent textmode=1 Y2DEBUG=1 vga=791 video=1024x768 plymouth.ignore-serial-consoles console=ttyS0 console=tty linuxrc.log=/dev/ttyS0 linuxrc.core=/dev/ttyS0 linuxrc.debug=4,trace extend=libyui-rest-api YUI_HTTP_PORT=39110 YUI_HTTP_REMOTE=1 YUI_REUSE_PORT=1 reboot_timeout=0 self_update=0 kernel.softlockup_panic=1 regurl=https://scc.suse.com" Installation get stuck if I set the ram size to 1gb or 2gb, and I can get some trace log from serial terminal as well. ----------------------------------------- The issue is not seen with previous build 136.1 [ramsize=1gb] and starts to show up at build 137.1. Please see openQA job history https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13708336#next_previous -------------------------------------------- With 1gb memory, I can get the serial log1 [please see attached log1], with openqQA job link https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13845781#step/setup_libyui/4. With 2gb memory, I can get the serial log2 [Please see attached log2] with openQA job link http://openqa.suse.de/tests/13906674#step/setup_libyui/4 The issue is gone if I set memory size to 4gb, please see openQA job http://openqa.suse.de/tests/13906683#details Can you please double check if it is a kernel bug or something release to yast install modules? Do let me know if you need to access my setup to debug. ------------------------------------------- ## openQA automation tests Observation openQA test in scenario sle-15-SP5-Online-QR-x86_64-textmode@64bit fails in [setup_libyui](https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13845781/modules/setup_libyui/steps/4) ## Test suite description Testsuite maintained at https://gitlab.suse.de/qa-maintenance/qam-openqa-yml.

I'd like to add more information here: 1. The issue seems happen on x86_64 platform only\ 2. The issue can only be seen with TEXTMODE installation, that means we add "textmode=1" and "libyui" parameters to boot parameter at the same time. In summary, the below boot parameters can cause the problem. ``` textmode=1 extend=libyui-rest-api YUI_HTTP_PORT=39101 YUI_HTTP_REMOTE=1 YUI_REUSE_PORT=1 ```

That means the issue can only be seen with all of these boot parameters added at the same time: 'textmode=1' AND 'extend=libyui-rest-api YUI_HTTP_PORT=39101 YUI_HTTP_REMOTE=1 YUI_REUSE_PORT=1'
Let me add my test results: 1. The issue is not seen with only 'textmode=1' defined https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13906657#step/welcome/1 [please ignore the failed test module, it is not related to this bug] 2. The issue is not see with only libyui related parameters defined https://openqa.suse.de/tests/13906876
Dup of bug 1221814?
(In reply to Takashi Iwai from comment #7) > Dup of bug 1221814? yes, seems to be the same
The issue is gone in the latest openQA test run: >https://openqa.suse.de/tests/14050508 *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 1221814 ***
