yeah ;)

btw. for me O(1) since some time (2.6.10 I think [after every past mm sched patch is in vanilla]) is also very good and playing really very well. Now other schedulers are not thumping O(1) as in the past becuase he is realli nice now :)

cheers.


And if you add the patches nick piggin recently submitted, it contends with staircase easly :).

Hu, I recompiled the kernel & nvidia, & .. it works! ;D Must have missed something the first time, sorry :)

I'll try to mount my reisser4 data partition .. cross your fingers ;D

EDIT : Reiser4 seems to works ;) It's not my / , but it's mounted now, and seems to works fine ;)

EDIT² : Hum, my dmesg is filled with "crq requeued" lines ... oO

Hello,
I'm trying the new nitro version with realtime enabled but i have some problems:

1]When the system loads the NVIDIA kernel module, i get this:
Code:

Mar  1 19:52:10 tux NVRM: loading NVIDIA Linux x86 NVIDIA Kernel Module  1.0-6629  Wed Nov  3 13:12:51 PST 2004
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux BUG: modprobe/3213, lock held at task exit time!
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux [dfd115e4] {&os_sema->wait}
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux .. held by:          modprobe: 3213 [df6c4110, 125]
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux ... acquired at:  crq requeued

And then i have a lot of these:
Code:

Mar  1 19:55:20 tux crq requeued
Mar  1 19:55:33 tux crq requeued
Mar  1 19:55:33 tux crq requeued
Mar  1 19:55:35 tux crq requeued
[...]

Although the error, Xorg starts and i'm able to log in ... and to post on this forum with konqueror ;)

2]When i try to switch between framebuffer consoles i get a blank screen and no further response from the system.
I didn't find any related error in the log files.
Note:I use vesafb-tnb and fbslash.

3] I have two disks on my machine and with previous kernels the first one was registered as hda and the second one as hdb. Now i get this:
Code:

[...]
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hda: max request size: 1024KiB
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hda: 80293248 sectors (41110 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=16383/255/63, UDMA(66)
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hda: cache flushes supported
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hda: hda1 hda2 hda3 hda4
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hdb: max request size: 128KiB
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hdb: 39102336 sectors (20020 MB) w/2048KiB Cache, CHS=38792/16/63, UDMA(66)
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hdb: cache flushes not supported
Mar  1 19:52:10 tux hdq: hdq1
[...]

In /dev i don't have hdb (and the partition hdb1) anymore, but hdq (and hdq1), why?
Note:I use udev.

Zephyrus: If it works, don't question it. The tux stuff is from tux which you have enabled in your kernel. As for the console switching, I'd say try not to switch consoles too much ;). I have the same issue with disk name switching on my computer. It's a bit irritating, but nothing that can't be fixed.

The ebuild is FUBAR again. Look here:

Code:

 After installing a new kernel of any version, it is important
 * that you have the appropriate /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-X.Y
 * created (X.Y is the first 2 parts of your new kernel version)

 * For example, this kernel will require:
 * /etc/modules.autoload.d/kernel-2.6

 * IMPORTANT:
 * This is a experimental kernel version, I'm not responsible for breaking your system
 * ALWAYS keep a second stable and bootable kernel apart in your boot manager
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
QA Notice: USE Flag 'want-experimental' not in IUSE for sys-kernel/nitro-sources-2.6.11_rc5-r0
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
 * You have enabled experimental patches.  They've been tested, but only as
 * far as running on the developers' systems.

 * If bad things happen, remember:
 * YOU chose it.

 * Now fire up your compiler, reboot, and fasten your seatbelts. You'll definitely need your seatbelts for this ride!

>>> Regenerating /etc/ld.so.cache...
 * Caching service dependencies ...                                       [ ok ]>>> sys-kernel/nitro-sources-2.6.11_rc5-r0 merged.
>>> Recording sys-kernel/nitro-sources in "world" favorites file...

>>> clean: No packages selected for removal.

>>> Auto-cleaning packages ...

>>> No outdated packages were found on your system.


 * GNU info directory index is up-to-date.


I've had enough rc5 ebuilds for today. I'm going to do everything manually.

Actually Tux is the name of my host.
I know, i'm not a very creative talent when we are talking about system's names :D.

EDIT:
I find that the "crq requeued" message appears if and only if i select the cfq scheduler, and i don't think it is linked with the NVIDIA module problem because, when i use another scheduler, i get:
[code]

Somehow the following message isn't written in a new line but on the same one of "... acquired at:"

for everyone who are annoyed about some verbose dmesg output:

i added some extra debug stuff, + rt may cause false alarms especially with spinlock debugging and preemption debugging on, as it uses different mechanisms for both tasklocking ( mutexes and such instead ) and preemption than the vanilla.

Here is my config part for kernel hacking i use for my box, and besides of dmesg messages from boot, no further trash in dmesg:

a13x: The ebuild is not FUBAR. That's definitely some kind of portage bug. Anyway, I get that too but it doesn't affect anything.

In other news, IT is currently 1/2 finished. I'm running IT now. You guys are gonna be sooooo surprised...

@Zephyrus:

Your Nvidia module conflicts with the lan driver, what is your ethernet harware?

My ethernet controller is a Realtek 8139C.

But...Are you sure? Isn't this a format error in the log?
Because with cfq i get:

ok guys, the answer is: new rt is already on its (early ) way, ill try to reduce the amount of patches to under 100.

for now, i can only say *sigh*,

and please, report any other issues.

a13x: what errors do you get? none? not using framebuffer?

T

EDIT:

no, the task for modprobing your nvidia is unable to aquire a lock because your ethernet controller driver task is still holding it...
i dont know if its an issue with the driver itself or maybe the vector signaled interrupts or something...
i use sk98lin for my yukon w/o probs and can only say *sigh*
W will see with the next rt... i guess me and darckness are the only ones running it without issues
im puzzled....

No framebuffer, nu logo just clean console view.

I would post the error but it just auto-reboots and there is no time to see anything.

well, i'm just about to compile another kernel (it has become a habit :wink:). is realtime worth a try or is it just too bugy?

BlinkEye: If it works, it's worth it. If it doesn't, it isn't. Seems to be about 50/50 that it works (disable fb to bring the chance of it working up to 75%).

Apolonius: Thanks; I'll pass this along to Tiger683 so he can throw it in.

Update on IT: We've just finished the final testing, and IT is fully functional now. Now all that remains is for 2.6.11 to arrive so that we can unleash IT upon unsuspecting users everywhere.:D

Great patchsets otherwise 2.6.10-nitro4 works just fine with both reiser4 xfs and nvidia...
But not this on :cry:
