1417716777 M * Bertl the dump seems to be missing the first trace (or at least the header of the first trace), so hard to say 1417716992 M * gnarface unfortunately that's as far back as dmesg goes 1417717001 M * gnarface i didn't catch it in time to get the first bit :( 1417717035 M * gnarface (the time that suggestion was made to me though, i had caught it in time) 1417717139 M * Bertl yeah it would be possible, but you can easily test that by disabling dynaticks 1417717146 M * gnarface but i'm starting to think the process srcds_linux (valve's team fortress server) might be related, because it seems like there is almost always a pending update when this happens, and the last several days when i thought the issue had been solved by swapping the ethernet device also coincidentally there had been no patches to srcds_linux 1417717170 M * gnarface can i disable dynticks without recompiling? 1417717200 M * gnarface i think i willl try disabling it but there is of course the issue of the fact this is an always-on machine so i'd like it to work because i've heard it saves electricity 1417717282 M * Bertl no you need to recompile the kernel for that change 1417717294 M * gnarface bummer 1417717307 M * Bertl I doubt your server will be idle much no? 1417717336 M * gnarface i guess i assumed it would be but i could be wrong 1417717374 M * gnarface i suppose it depends a lot on how popular the tf2 server gets 1417717376 M * Bertl are there times where no process is running? does that happen often? 1417717407 M * gnarface oh, well apache and exim4 and spamassassin are always running, as are bind9 and ... some other things 1417717416 M * Bertl most servers always have something running, at least for monitoring and similar 1417717439 M * gnarface hmm. yea i just figured they'd be asleep between emails and dns queries 1417717441 M * Bertl so the cases where the CPU can go to sleep are rare 1417717460 M * gnarface noted 1417717640 M * gnarface i guess i figured it'd add up, a couple seconds here and there while the processes were idle 1417717678 M * gnarface but i guess if this is really whats causing those errors in dmesg, it may only actually go idle every few days, when the tf2 server becomes out of date 1417718553 M * gnarface Bertl: you don't think his is the same bug as mentioned here, do you? http://linux.slashdot.org/story/14/11/29/1658250/bad-lockup-bug-plagues-linux 1417718580 M * gnarface maybe i should also compile this kernel without xen enabled? 1417718696 M * Bertl well, we've seen unexplained lockups since early 3.x 1417718729 M * Bertl so it might well be a left over from 2005 1417718734 M * gnarface this is the first one i've seen that couldn't be explained by a problem with the commercial nvidia driver (because i'm using nouveau and not running X on this machine) 1417718764 M * gnarface so you're saying maybe i SHOULD exclude the xen features? 1417718787 M * Bertl do you use Xen? 1417718796 M * gnarface no, but i had the vague notion i might run some xen guests in tandem with vserver guests, if it was possible 1417718804 M * gnarface i wanted to be able to run openbsd in a guest 1417718818 M * Bertl well, in general you should disable everything you don't actually use 1417718829 M * Bertl (to reduce problems and compile time) 1417718834 M * gnarface yea, noted 1417718844 M * gnarface i always used to do that actually, but there's just so much stuff to disable now 1417718859 M * gnarface and i'm not always sure anymore whether its something the system is using nor not 1417718880 M * Bertl better do it the other way (like with firewalls): disable everything, enable only what you need :) 1417718898 M * gnarface hmm. so xen guests CAN be run in tandem with vserver guests though? in theory? 1417718932 M * daniel_hozac is there a reason to use xen over kvm? kvm is far more self-contained... 1417718933 M * gnarface if they can't it makes the decision much easier 1417718934 M * Bertl I'd say so, but I would always prefer kvm over xen 1417718952 M * gnarface oh. but i need xen to run non-linux kernels, right? 1417718956 M * Bertl never understood the xen hype 1417718980 M * gnarface if i can run openbsd in a kvm guest i'd happily avoid xen 1417718990 M * Bertl sure you can 1417718998 P * undefined 1417719009 M * gnarface oh, hmm. for some reason i was under the impression kvm could only run linux kernels... 1417719012 M * gnarface weird 1417719023 M * gnarface what is xen even for then?
