Package: powertop Version: 1.11-1 Severity: normal
PowerTOP is a great tools, thanks for the development and maintaining it. When I run PowerTOP on my eeepc 901 with the wifi on (whithout wifi there is no porblem) powertop will hang after one second and will not allow itself to be killed, the system seems to be still working, but all sudo command calls will freeze. And when shuting down the system will hang. I have to do SySRq RISEUB to reboot, normal shutdown does not work. I investigated dmesg and this is what I found: [ 46.028571] Modules linked in: cpufreq_stats freq_table joydev hidp hid rfcomm sco tun l2cap fuse thermal hci_usb bluetooth snd_hda_intel snd_pcm_oss snd_mixer_oss snd_pcm video output battery ac snd_seq_dummy eeepc_laptop processor thermal_sys button psmouse serio_raw rng_core i2c_i801 i2c_core snd_seq_oss snd_seq_midi iTCO_wdt snd_rawmidi snd_seq_midi_event uhci_hcd ehci_hcd snd_seq usbcore rt2860sta snd_timer snd_seq_device snd intel_agp agpgart soundcore snd_page_alloc evdev ext2 mbcache sd_mod ata_generic ata_piix libata scsi_mod dock ide_pci_generic ide_core [ 46.028571] [ 46.028571] Pid: 2136, comm: iwpriv Not tainted (2.6.26-1-686 #1) [ 46.028571] EIP: 0060:[<f8a9b13f>] EFLAGS: 00010297 CPU: 0 [ 46.028571] EIP is at Show_DescInfo_Proc+0x30/0x100 [rt2860sta] [ 46.028571] EAX: f8acdb7c EBX: 00000000 ECX: 00000010 EDX: c0122ea7 [ 46.028571] ESI: f8ae8020 EDI: 00000001 EBP: f8ae8000 ESP: f67cfe94 [ 46.028572] DS: 007b ES: 007b FS: 00d8 GS: 0033 SS: 0068 [ 46.028572] Process iwpriv (pid: 2136, ti=f67ce000 task=f7373180 task.ti=f67ce000) [ 46.028572] Stack: f8acdb72 00000000 f8ae8000 f675b800 f675bfff f67cff40 f8abeef8 0007ff30 [ 46.028572] f675b800 000007ff f67cff40 f67cff30 c02ac309 f675b800 00000001 001280d2 [ 46.028572] f67cff40 f8abed20 f7355800 f8ae4cd8 00008bf1 f67cff30 00008bf1 c041d060 [ 46.028572] Call Trace: [ 46.028572] [<f8abeef8>] rt_private_show+0x1d8/0x2c6 [rt2860sta] [ 46.028572] [<c02ac309>] wext_handle_ioctl+0x276/0x357 [ 46.028572] [<f8abed20>] rt_private_show+0x0/0x2c6 [rt2860sta] [ 46.028572] [<c0259d86>] dev_ioctl+0x551/0x571 [ 46.028572] [<c024e70c>] sock_ioctl+0x0/0x1c1 [ 46.028572] [<c017e3f0>] vfs_ioctl+0x1c/0x5d [ 46.028572] [<c017e67b>] do_vfs_ioctl+0x24a/0x261 [ 46.028572] [<c017e6d3>] sys_ioctl+0x41/0x5a [ 46.028572] [<c0103853>] sysenter_past_esp+0x78/0xb1 [ 46.028572] ======================= [ 46.028572] Code: ff 56 89 c6 53 8b 9e b4 00 00 00 83 c6 20 57 47 68 72 db ac f8 e8 65 7d 68 c7 b9 10 00 00 00 b8 7c db ac f8 89 da e8 09 59 01 00 <8a> 43 07 c0 e8 07 0f b6 c0 50 68 8a db ac f8 e8 40 7d 68 c7 83 [ 46.028572] EIP: [<f8a9b13f>] Show_DescInfo_Proc+0x30/0x100 [rt2860sta] SS:ESP 0068:f67cfe94 [ 46.028572] ---[ end trace 28b0951c5c8ad136 ]--- Mabybe powertop is showing a bug in the rt2860sta driver, i dont really know.
