Subject: 2.6.39-rc3 udevadm settle timeout, many hdb events, interrupt storm
Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2011 15:14:35 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <E1Q9j2p-0008Rr-00@www.xplot.org> (raw)
2.6.38 is working fine on my PowerBook G4 (powerpc) and has none of
the issues described below.
Last week I tried 2.6.39-rc2 and it hung on reboot.
Same thing with 2.6.39-rc3 this week.
I've tracked this down to the "udevadm settle" in /etc/init.d/udev
(from Debian squeeze).
If I am patient it does timeout after 180 seconds and continues
booting. But after booting finishes udev is still chewing CPU cycles
and load average is stuck at 1.
After the system is up:
# udevadm monitor
monitor will print the received events for:
UDEV - the event which udev sends out after rule processing
KERNEL - the kernel uevent

I tried using the CDROM drive and it actually does work (as /dev/hdb).
So the only real problems are the 180 second hang while booting and
the interrupt storm and udev event storm that continues.
Any hints?
