turnpike creates heavy cpu-load with vpnlogin or knetworkmanager
Last modified: 2006-03-16 08:54:08 UTC
The vpnlogin process and racoon show heavy cpu-load, even after an successfull authentication. vpnlogin approx. 60%, racoon approx. 30% on a 2GHz CPU. With knetworkmanager, nvpn runs forever with 60%, racoon always shows 30% (even after hours and working vpn connection). A manual start of nvpn shows this load behaviour only during the 15-20s negotiation phase. Tested with vpn.americas, vpn.dus and vpn.nue. Installed modules: novell-nortelplugins-0.1-15 turnpike-0.1.0-15 novell-ipsec-tools-0.6.3-11 racoon log doesn't show anything special in logfile: Mar 10 10:22:28 TuX-JO01 racoon: ERROR: not matched Mar 10 10:22:28 TuX-JO01 racoon: INFO: Quick Mode start message notified to plugin Mar 10 10:22:28 TuX-JO01 racoon: INFO: IPsec-SA established: ESP/Tunnel 195.75.97.190[500]->192.168.254.21[500] spi=186700047(0xb20d10f) Mar 10 10:22:28 TuX-JO01 racoon: INFO: PF_KEY message type 2 notified to plugin Mar 10 10:22:28 TuX-JO01 racoon: INFO: IPsec-SA established: ESP/Tunnel 192.168.254.21[500]->195.75.97.190[500] spi=2643047872(0x9d89b5c0)
T Sureshkumar, can you please comment? Are you aware of this? cc'ing T Sureshkumar
Just crosschecked in plain GNOME environment. Tops says: 4651 root 25 0 4684 1540 1188 R 62.6 0.1 3:14.85 nvpn 4644 root 15 0 3744 1724 1384 S 35.3 0.1 1:46.60 racoon
tested the -25 from http://forge.novell.com/modules/xfmod/project/?turnpike. This version doesn't show the problem. So, why are we still with -15?
-25 is just the build number, so it could be the same package just build at a different time. Let's assign to maintainer. If just replacing the rpm makes the difference, then the problem seems to be related to the turnpike version in autobuild.
As we have not yet heard T Sureshkumar on this I'm cc'ing rvinay. According to the turnpike.changes he was submitting the last updates for the turnpike package.
The turnpike package (which includes the CPU Usage fix) has been submitted to Autobuild About the difference in the web and Autobuild, they differ only by the release number. We will merge them.
juat installed the latest build from stable-x86 turnpike-0.1.0-16 novell-nortelplugins-0.1-17 novell-ipsec-tools-0.6.3-12 Same effect like before - here's the output from top: 4511 root 25 0 4684 1560 1212 R 49.6 0.1 2:13.23 nvpn 4489 root 15 0 3752 1736 1396 S 26.6 0.1 1:08.25 racoon Really wondering why the build from forge (-25) doesn't show this effect...
Can you please check with the new turnpike-0.1.0-17 available in hilbert3 ??
I'm onsite today, so I can't check before 20:00MEZ. Please can you provide the URL or attach the RPM? Maybe Timo has 5mins to look at the -17 build.
Created attachment 72926 [details] turnpike rpm with fix for CPU Usage
