Bug Description

This has been flooding my logs. I also think it is preventing me from shutting down fully. I get an error on shutting down that says it failed to kill running processes. This is also an issue on 13.04 fully updated as of today.

Can you test the kernel and post back if it resolves this bug? If it does, I can send the patch upstream and submit an SRU request for inclusion in the stable releases.

Note that you will have to install both the linux-image and linux-image-extra .deb packages.

Thanks in advance!

Rebooted the system and logged in.
Was prompted about sending a bug report for bug #1206314 (did not submit because it's known).

/var/log/syslog still contains many entries for:

I am not sure what you would like done with the tags as mentioned in comment 3.

Nick Jenkins, could you please test the latest upstream kernel available following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds ? It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Please do not test the daily folder, but the one all the way at the bottom. Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please comment on which kernel version specifically you tested. If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tags:
kernel-fixed-upstream
kernel-fixed-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

where VERSION-NUMBER is the version number of the kernel you tested. For example:
kernel-fixed-upstream-v3.11-rc5

This can be done by clicking on the yellow circle with a black pencil icon next to the word Tags located at the bottom of the bug description. As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the following tags:
kernel-bug-exists-upstream
kernel-bug-exists-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

As well, please remove the tag:
needs-upstream-testing

If you are unable to test the mainline kernel, please comment as to why specifically you were unable to test it and add the following tags:
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream
kernel-unable-to-test-upstream-VERSION-NUMBER

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug's Status as Confirmed. Please let us know your results. Thank you for your understanding.

Hi Nick,

From the link http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~jsalisbury/lp1210848/ you will want to install the following two .dpkg packages, and then reboot into the new kernel:

linux-image-3.11.0-2-generic_3.11.0-2.5~lp1210848_amd64.deb
linux-image-extra-3.11.0-2-generic_3.11.0-2.5~lp1210848_amd64.deb

The .deb packages can be install using the dpkg command with sudo and the -i option. For example:

sudo dpkg -i linux-image-3.11.0-2-generic_3.11.0-2.5~lp1210848_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i linux-image-extra-3.11.0-2-generic_3.11.0-2.5~lp1210848_amd64.deb

Christopher M. Penalver,

Do I need to re-install to a non-saucy salamander to do test the mainline kernel? If so which one?

Nick Jenkins, you would not have to re-install to a non-Saucy Salamander to test the latest mainline kernel (v3.11-rc5).

So the set I would want to test is #5?

5. tags from the combined v2.6.32.x.y tree (by StefanBader) which is v2.6.32.x with DRM from 2.6.33.y.

Is that correct?

Joseph Salisbury (jsalisbury) wrote :

I don't think it is nessessarry to install the mainline kernel at this point. The latest 3.11-rc5 kernel does not have your system blacklisted in the Intel IPS code.

The kernel I mentioned in comment #6 blacklists your machine in the IPS code. It sounds like it stops these messages from spamming your log, per comment #13. I will submit this patch upstream and to the Ubuntu kernel team mailing list.

You also mentioned the system still does not shut down. That is probably a separate bug. Can you open a new bug for that issue?

Hi Nick,

I'm working with upstream to implement a solution that does not require blacklisting specific machines. I created a test kernel where the ips_monitor thread will exit if the ME doesn't update for more than 30s.

Can you test this kernel and post back the messages it writes to the log? It can be downloaded from:

@Nick, do you still happen to have this hardware? We are currently still blacklisting this specific mode and that was not sent upstream. I'd like to come up with a better solution and not use a blacklist.

Thanks in advance!

Yes, I still have this laptop. it is currently installed with Windows 7 for the pending OEM Windows 10 upgrade. I have a spare HDD I can swap out for testing for a Linux install though. What would you like me to try out?

We are still using a blacklist for ASUSTek G60JX laptops in the Ubuntu kernel. Would it be possible for you to install Ubuntu on the other harddisk and then install the latest mainline kernel to see if the bug still happens? If it does, I'd like to create a new patch and avoid the blacklist.

The latest mainline kernel can be download from:
http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.2-rc2-unstable/

Does anyone affected by this bug still have hardware to test the latest mainline kernel? There was a blacklist entry added for this system and a proper patch would be better.
