Public bug reported: Using: libudisks2-0:amd64 2.1.6-2ubuntu1
Ubuntu 4.2.0-36.42-generic 4.2.8-ckt8 Description: Ubuntu 15.10 Release: 15.10 When I add USB drives to my system I end-up with udisksd using 100% of a core shortly after. After some time this goes up to 200% (in one step), so using 2 cores. Thread view shows CPU time of CMD 'pool': # ps -T -p <pid-of-udisksd> PID SPID TTY TIME CMD 26229 26229 ? 00:00:00 udisksd 26229 26230 ? 00:00:00 gmain 26229 26232 ? 00:00:00 gdbus 26229 26233 ? 00:00:00 probing-thread 26229 26234 ? 00:00:00 cleanup 26229 3325 ? 00:33:16 pool 26229 5027 ? 00:03:00 pool My solution is to kill it and let it restart. Strace needs to follow threads to show activity, it's then flooding with: # strace -p <udisksd-pid> -f [pid 3325] poll([{fd=12, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 4, 0) = 2 ([{fd=12, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=17, revents=POLLOUT}]) [pid 3325] read(12, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] write(2, "\n(udisksd:26229): GLib-WARNING *"..., 87) = 87 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] poll([{fd=12, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 4, 0) = 2 ([{fd=12, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=17, revents=POLLOUT}]) [pid 3325] read(12, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] write(2, "\n(udisksd:26229): GLib-WARNING *"..., 87) = 87 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] poll([{fd=12, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 4, 0) = 2 ([{fd=12, revents=POLLIN}, {fd=17, revents=POLLOUT}]) [pid 3325] read(12, "\2\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 16) = 8 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] write(2, "\n(udisksd:26229): GLib-WARNING *"..., 87) = 87 [pid 3325] write(12, "\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0", 8) = 8 [pid 3325] poll([{fd=12, events=POLLIN}, {fd=17, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=18, events=POLLIN}, {fd=20, events=POLLIN}], 4, 0) = 2^CProcess 26229 detached THANKS! ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1589418 Title: udisksd high CPU usage To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1589418/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
