For me, kernel 4.12.6 & 4.12.7 hangs indefinitely during boot at "Setting system clock..."
Kernel configs are equal, no other system config changes are made either!
Booting kernel 4.12.5 works...

I'm using clock="local" in /etc/conf.d/hwclock (because of a virtually never used windows dual boot installation 8) )
I haven't (yet) started messing with time and timezone settings, shifting to UTC and so on, simply because it appears to work as supposed to with kernel 4.12.5...

Anyone having any ideas of what might be the problem, i.e. what the differences are between the kernels regarding system time settings during boot, and how to make the newest kernels work?

Thanks!

/pste

EDIT: I've removed the [solved] label as that must've been a lucky chance because the problem remains for me, with 4.12.8 & 4.12.9 as well. I also changed the heading to indicate xhci_pci module as that's what I've been able to track down. Se Post below...

EDIT 2: comment to solved as new reply

Check dmesg output for anything RTC related. Have you enabled PC style RTC in your kernel config?

Booting kernel 4.12.5 works...
Maybe it is time for https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Kernel_git-bisect ? :-)

Yeah, perhaps... especially since I've discovered that the problem probably has to do with something else than the hwclock!

The thing is, doing interactive booting and then escaping to console after starting each service, ends up not being possible after udev-triggers have loaded all the modules. That is, for kernel 4.12.5 I'm able to enter console, check dmesg and exit console to continue the boot process after every step, including after the modules have been loaded by udev-triggers. But for 4.12.6 and .7, after udev-triggers have loaded all the modules, everything halts. Hitting 4 - escape to console, results in nothing but a 4 typed to the screen. My guess now is (obviously) that the halt after the starting of hwclock during non-interactive start-up just happens to happen exactly when the module-loading problem hits the system...

I haven't changed any settings in kernel config, thus the modules I use are the same for all the kernels (and there's quite a few models to investigate...).

I'll try (when there's time) escaping to console with 4.12.7 and load all 4.12.5 modules manually and see if I can identify any particular one as the culprit...

Any other cleverer|more insightful ideas of how to proceed?

Just rebooted to 4.12.7, no issues here. You said lots of modules, any out-of kernel modules? You could skip the module loading and start loading them one by one to define the culprit.

Same problem here with gentoo_gremlin-sources from 4.12.5 to 4.12.8

The system was hanging on ntp-client time sync. After removing ntp from default run levels the OS booted properly but no keyboard or mouse worked either due to driver problem or the system hangs.

The upgrade from 4.9.24 was done with make oldconfig and no changes were done by me on the kernel config.
All my external modules were recompiled and loaded without issues.

Someone changed something somewhere in these new sources and did not care about informing the community... probably just too see how it went (funzies).

No keyboard is punishment for not looking at what you were doing during make oldconfig. USB_PCI needs to be enabled, probably.

Before:

(no output)

After:

Result is the same:

Not everyone is on a router or netbook/laptop where usb pci support is commonly seen.

Also found no errors on dmesg

Well, hand-loading modules one-by-one was precisely my first action point, which I didn't have time to do until yesterday, resulting in a smaller but still not trivial set of modules causing the freeze during boot.

However, discovering the release of a yet another kernel version made me stop the effort. And as it turns out, gentoo-sources-4.12.8 appears not having the issue, I'm writing this running the newest kernel with the same set of modules causing 4.12.{6,7} to freeze. Hence, I'll mark this issue [solved], despite neither knowing the cause nor the fix...

Thanks for trying to help!

OK, as stated in EDIT in the original post, the issue isn't resolved.

Using interactive boot, stopping after starting udev (before starting udev-triggers) and manually load modules one by one, I've manage to isolate the problem to the xhci_pci module.

What happens is the following:
Kernel <= 4.12.5
If loading xhci_pci, module xhci_hcd loads as well. Udev runs some laptop_mode processes for a while, but settles down quite quickly. I can load all modules normally loaded by udev-triggers without any problem.

If loading xhci_pci when running kernel >4.12.5, system hangs immediately and fan starts spinning up (race condition?). I'm not able to see whether xhci_hcd and/or the laptop_mode things even get started...
If loading xhci_hcd first, then the xhci_pci module, the system doesn't hang immediately. However, the udev running of the laptop_mode things results in a larger number of processes than I've seen on <=4.12.5 and the system doesn't settle down. Eventually it hangs.

I've not been able to see any differences for other loading orders of modules. The problem occurs with only the xhci_pci (presumably also loading xhci_hcd) module.

Thankful for ideas of how to proceed. Currently I'm "stuck" at kernel 4.12.5

For the interested...
As it seems, the issue was (probably) related to eudev in combination with some kind of kernel modification related to modules loading (or specifically to xhci...) introduced in 4.12.5, as was also indicated by the lock-up occurring after service udev-triggers started. What appears to have happened was some kind of race condition causing 100% CPU in one kworker thread that eventually (a couple of seconds) locked the entire system...

Today's --sync brought an update to eudev (3.2.4) and after this, my system starts properly with all kernels, currently 4.12.{5,6,7,8,9,10} as well as 4.13.0, also with udev-triggers service started according to normal rc startup routine.

That is, the issue is (hopefully) solved!

Indeed someone of low integrity decided to change something without any regards for the rest of us.
Some typical reasons why:
- Don't care. They develop for themselves.
- No arch tests. They decide to use the regular users as arch tester (don't care)
- Introduce new feature because it is cool and make a name for themselves
etc etc

Just tried sys-kernel/gentoo-sources-4.12.12 and even unmasked sys-fs/eudev-3.2.4

Still don't get the keyboard and mouse working. Bellow is my current usb support that works with 4.9.34-gentoo

For the interested...
As it seems, the issue was (probably) related to eudev in combination with some kind of kernel modification related to modules loading (or specifically to xhci...) introduced in 4.12.5, as was also indicated by the lock-up occurring after service udev-triggers started. What appears to have happened was some kind of race condition causing 100% CPU in one kworker thread that eventually (a couple of seconds) locked the entire system...

Today's --sync brought an update to eudev (3.2.4) and after this, my system starts properly with all kernels, currently 4.12.{5,6,7,8,9,10} as well as 4.13.0, also with udev-triggers service started according to normal rc startup routine.

That is, the issue is (hopefully) solved!


Sorry to be a drag, but this is NOT solved after all (topic subject changed AGAIN...)
And sorry for not reporting at once!

Sometimes, I haven't been able to identify exactly under what circumstances, the system boots OK, which clearly was the case when I wrote the above. Although, at least once after the system seemingly had booted OK, the kworker 100% thread showed up after a while, locking the system completely after a couple of seconds. But most of the time, the system hangs directly during boot after the udev-trigger service is started. Also, if I enter to console during interactive boot, skip the udev-trigger service and manually load xhci_{hcd,pci} modules, the 100% kworker process shows up making the system hang. Removing xhci_pci (removing CONFIG_USB_PCI - believing I do not need it...), or compiling these in kernel and not as modules, makes no difference.

For me, this unusable behavior is the case for all kernels > 4.12.5, I have at the moment tried all versions up to 4.13.8, will try 4.13.9 later today...

Problem still remains for me with linux-4.14.2-gentoo.
I was able to upgrade to linux-4.9.65-gentoo and that's about it.

Something changed from 4.9.* to 4.10 and above

Any progress for your side pste ?

HeXiLeD you don't help yourself.
First because "it doesn't work" is not helping anyone: does the keyboar lights works? Does it work in console but not in X?...
But let's just assume indeed the keyboard is not working at all, meaning its handling fail.

Look how ironic it is:

@krinn
you are making a fool out of yourself just for personal attacks.
Your answer has nothing to do with the topic description and my problem or pste problem

I do not have a problem with the Microsoft Corp. Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 V1.0
That was solved a long time ago in the topic you mentioned and and I even replied to it a long time ago

I have a problem with ANY USB keyboard and ANY USB mouse connected to my box with ANY kernel 4.10 or above and I tried every kernel above 4.9.65

For the record with linux-4.9.65-gentoo where everything is working without your refereed solution.

Code:

linux-4.14.2-gentoo # cat .config| grep CONFIG_USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT
# CONFIG_USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB_TT is not set

linux-4.9.65-gentoo #  cat .config |grep CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED
# CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED is not set


ALL my keyboards and mice FULLY work with linux-4.9.65-gentoo and the system does not LOCK

Enabling those options in the kernel makes no change and does not solve the problems mentioned by me or pste

Your solution posted and refereed does not solve the problem we are having and was nothing else than a direct personal attack.

So, you mr krinn, not only you should read the topic to stay on topic and follow forum rules as well as you can answer yourself about what should your punishment be.

Indeed very ironic!

I don't need to think myself about my punishment, it's something mods might have to take care if i did attack you.
And yes i was off topic because i've try answering your problem that is not about a lock up, but keyboard not working.
What can i say, good luck with your keyboard problem :)

As a matter of fact, yesterday! I found the culprit, at least to the extent that I've identified the very kernel patch that started the problem for me. However, there is presumably something more lurking beneath all this (that appears to have something to do with acpi and power management)...

What I did yesterday was to finally invest the time and walk through a kernel bisect between 4.12.5 and 4.12.6 as suggested by toralf in post #3, ending with a patch labeled "block: disable runtime-pm for blk-mq", which adds (effectively) one single line of code. Removing that one stops the boot freeze on my comp.

So, the following kernel [patch-inhibiting] patch works for me, as you can see also on the latest gentoo kernel. That is, I'll (once again) mark this issue as solved!

@HeXiLeD, just out of curiosity, do you have an ASUS laptop as me (mine is a TP300LA, core-i7)? I ask because searching the net has given me the impression this problem is related to this brand (and acpi)... For me, booting sometimes worked, but never if the system had switched from mains to battery (at least once?) And, I understand your problem must be somewhat different as you've hit the wall at 4.10 and I at 4.12.5...

@pste
Happy to see your progress and while I initially thought my problem was related to yours, I just found out it was not.
I also do not have the same hardware as you.

My problem was impleer and was just also solved. I leave here the info which can help other people.

I decided to play with with other kernels today and overall I found out over remote ssh that my problem is not just usb mice and keyboards but in fact nearly all usb support.

From the 22 supported usb hardware equipment I had working with kernels bellow 4.10, only 2 remained active and or supported with kernels 4.10 or above.

This was the only thing that remained working:

Code:

Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0525:a4a7 Netchip Technology, Inc. Linux-USB Serial Gadget (CDC ACM mode)
Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub


The kernel config file was the same for kernels bellow and above 4.10. I also compared the configs and found initially little to no difference at all or even relevant to the usb problem, except for one detail which was found later.

Kernels 4.10 or above seem to completely ignore all my usb configurations used bellow 4.10.

Something changed somewhere. Maybe even just name on the menu or something was changed. While doing some checking:

Code:
# lspci | grep USB
00:1a.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #4
00:1a.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #5
00:1a.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #6
00:1a.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #2
00:1d.0 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #1
00:1d.1 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #2
00:1d.2 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB UHCI Controller #3
00:1d.7 USB controller: Intel Corporation 82801JI (ICH10 Family) USB2 EHCI Controller #1


It seems that, UHCI got lost on kernel 4.10 and above after make oldconfig.

Code:
# cat linux-4.14.2-gentoo/.config|grep UHCI
(nothing)

# cat linux-4.9.65-gentoo/.config|grep UHCI
CONFIG_USB_UHCI_HCD=y


I went look in the kernels for this support and found out that is not configured in 4.10 and above. In fact is not even in any menu option.

Code:
USB_UHCI_HCD
USB_UHCI_PLATFORM
USB_UHCI_SUPPORT_NON_PCI_HC


When using menuconfig to locate UHCI options, I could also see that they are all set as [n] while USB support (USB_SUPPORT [=y])

Closer look pointed me to needed dependencies. Jaglover did mention this support but this support alone does not do it as the needed support was under submenus.
Code:
[ ]   PCI based USB host interface



Enabling USB_PCI brought the menu following menu options which I did not see previously.
Code:
< >   UHCI HCD (most Intel and VIA) support (NEW)


NEW ? no it is old. It was just under a different option and some magician decided to change it's kernel tree location and make it dependent on other support that was not needed or was there before.

This is not the only issue I had and there is others to solve and they all related to devs changing kernel options, names and set them under new options that depend on stuff not existent before.

Anyway, problem is solved for me.
Thanks for your time @pste & @jaglover
