New Kernel seems broken for me

[vindeliker]

no, siduction is the one and only.
The SSD is for system, the HDDs are first for multimedia of another linux TV box (nfs share), second for web content (four apache virtual hosts) and nfs shares and third for backup of the second one.

[vindeliker]

have look at the photograph of GoinEasy9's first post. UUID doesn't come up and we are dropped into busybox. On my desktop PC the new kernel is running w/o issues but not on my old server

[ralul]

Greetings from an old Siduction user, since a few years
a Gentoo compiling nerd.
My guess is that the new linux-5.15.x has lost compatibility with old hardware. I tried extensibly to boot with the new kernel. My method to put the old .config into the new directory /usr/src/linux-5.15 and create a new one with:
make oldconfig
didn't work. I tried four times to figure out a new .config. Until I had the idea to grab the Towo Siduction kernel:
---

-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 7317856 Nov 15 14:41 vmlinuz-5.15.2-4.860.2435
---
It isn't a wrongly configured kernel source. Towos kernel boots with all the same error, something with:
ata1 error
I could make a photo from the boot screen before the computer reboots - if you are interested. I do have a Debian-Testing installation for the rescue (having Gentoo this might be necessary sometimes). There the Towo Siduction kernel also plays the same error. Something with the new kernel-5.15 and NVIDIA-MCP7x

Maybe you all with that problem can boot with "quiet" removed from kernel command, maybe we see, what's going wrong.

[ralul]

I just came up with a solution for my vmlinuz-5.15.2  by adding:
irqpoll
rootdelay=7
like this boot options:

Code: [Select]

# cat /proc/cmdline
initrd=\icoreduo.img irqpoll tsx=on noacpi random.trust_cpu=1 ipv6.disable=1 root=/dev/sda3 systemd.unit=default.target hibernate=no rootdelay=7 init=/sbin/systemd rootfstype=ext4 systemd.show_status=1 systemd.log_level=7 acpi_backlight=vendor modeset.nouveau=1 vt.handoff=1 (running without a regular initrd but with only a core2 firmware update image)

This I found out, because I wanted to make a photo of the ata1 error. Since Linux-4.4 sometimes I get an irq 20 error with the hint to use irqpoll as option. For this error never had consequences I never used irqpoll. But to not disturb the error analyzis in this forum I introduced the "irqpoll" option now. This helped. It seems to me that the linux-5.15 kernel is somewhat more sensible and just needs an extra care in options.

The Towo siduction kernel could start my debian-testing partition and my self compiled kernel boots the Gentoo partition just perfectly by adding these two options.

[vindeliker]

hopefully I catched the first error. After that he reduces the speed to 1.5Gbps followed by the same error and finally got the errors from the first posting.

ralul's solution didn't work here

  [ You are not allowed to view this attachment ]  

[ralul]

@vindeliker,
weird it is, that my two additional options don't work for you, because my error seemed to be the same as yours! If you are unsure the changed boot options take effect, then test them inserting into a previous boot entry and try to see them in: cat /proc/cmdline
... and I would wait some days, there are a record of 940 error corrections in the stableque on the way to 5.15.3

[GoinEasy9]

Hi

I tried rootdelay=10 without success when error first appeared. Here's the pic with quiet removed.

Can you purge the package mdadm? Maybe it lowering the noise in your messages.

But with this real time clock patch, I am not expert enough to know if it has to do with the NVIDIA MCP7xxx chips. But the timeout errors point direction timings ....
