Well.
I can't update MAGEIA 4 with this bug !! And I can't install a new package by the MCC !!

Note : 
Using rpm -qa command, i have obtained the following message :
#rpm -qa
Instruction non permise

And in the file log named messages (/var/log), I read theses messages :
Nov 30 15:41:41 localhost kernel: traps: rpm[17660] trap invalid opcode ip:393c0112ab sp:7fff84737678 error:0 in libpthread-2.18.so[393c000000+18000]

I seem i don't have this problem. But i haven't updated all, just kernel and 
glibc.

So I'm not sure it's a kernel issue... 
I cannot see the MageiaUpdate widget though, but i can run it by hands and see all
the remaining updates.

At marja's request installed kernel-desktop-3.14.24-1.mga4 (i586) on my M4 machine which already had glibc-2.18-9.5.mga4 and added a few packages with rpmdrake (urpmi.update showed the machine was uptodate, mgaapplet is not used locally) but I had no errors at all installing the extra packages.

Also, no file in /var/log (which uses rsyslog) shows any mention of pthread or opcode, there is no error similar to what is shown in #c2

Sorry, haven't been clear.

I only wanted the _version_ of glibc removed, because I hadn't made sure that was the version the reporter was using
 
"traps: rpm[17660] trap invalid opcode ip:393c0112ab sp:7fff84737678 error:0 in libpthread-2.18.so" is still about an error in a file that is provided by glibc

Anyway, it is good so far no one reproduces the error.

@ seilebost*2

what is the output of:

rpm -qa | grep glibc

Source RPM: (none) => glibc

Thomas, is TSX stricking back?
Aka is mga4 now suffering from cauldron bug #14172 (SIGILL, Illegal instruction in __GI___pthread_rwlock_unlock() -> ELIDE_UNLOCK() )

I was not able to reproduce this issue either, on an i7 laptop with an up-to-date Mageia 4/x86_64 and:

glibc-2.18-9.5.mga4
kernel 3.14.24-desktop-1.mga4

@seilebost seilebost: Could you post some information on your CPU and the rest of your hardware?

CC: (none) => thkala

If that's the same bug as bug #14172, you won't see it on newer CPUs.
I saw #14172 on eg E8400

well.

Hi
Any idea about this problem because I can't update my PC by RPM or URMPI or MCC.
Best regards.

Quite possible yes, there are also some other reports on the net regarding elison problems even with glibc 2.18 we have in mga4

I've submitted a glibc-2.18-9.6.mga4 to updates_testing that disables elision for mga4 too

Created attachment 5680 [details]
List of packages installed before the problem showed up.

As reported on the qa discuss mailing list, after
installing the attached list of packages, I'm now
getting a roughly 5 minute delay on every reboot,
or cold boot on my x86_64 install (It's fine on my
i586 system). My guess is that it's glibc related.

Since you installed util-linux at the same time... and both can affect boot time... can you downgrade either glibc or util-linux so we can isolate / confirm it's glibc

I'm not sure how. I've tried
urpmi --allow-nodeps --downgrade util-linux-2.24-2.mga4 util-linux-debuginfo-2.24-2.mga4
and
urpmi --allow-nodeps --downgrade glibc-2.18-9.2.mga4

Both fail due to dependencies. I have to confess I've never
tried to downgrade a package before, let alone such critical
packages.

Just go to the previous validated glibc with:

urpmi --downgrade glibc-2.18-9.5.mga4

If you have glibc-devel, nscd and such installed too, you need to downgrade them too, just add them to the above command _with_ the version you want to downgrade to

I put a Mageia4-64 VM to test with new glibc and checked dmesg afterwards (shut down VM completely before each try):

With current glibc package :
--------------------------
# rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.18-9.5.mga4

[   28.183493] ip6_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
[   28.198569] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
[   28.762372] Netfilter messages via NETLINK v0.30.
(...)
[   31.218682] netfilter PSD loaded - (c) astaro AG
[   31.224940] IFWLOG: register target
and then some errors about xt_CT

With testing glibc :
------------------

# rpm -q glibc
glibc-2.18-9.6.mga4

[   28.229850] ip_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
[   28.249259] ip6_tables: (C) 2000-2006 Netfilter Core Team
[   28.586676] Netfilter messages via NETLINK v0.30.
(...)
[   29.803200] netfilter PSD loaded - (c) astaro AG
[   29.805426] IFWLOG: register target
... and same errors about xt_CT

So no significant differences between the 2 versions for me.

Thanks. That worked and eliminated the 5 minute delay on boot, so it does
seem to be the change in glibc that is causing the delay.

Well.
 I can't install the new package (glibc-2.18-9.6.mga4.x86_64.rpm) because urpmi is only using by root. Or urpmi is broken to user root on my PC !

How can I install this new package ?

Best Regards.

well.
It is very strange. I have used the DVD of MAGEIA 4 to do a quick update.
After reboot, the command RPM is running under root ! 
I don't understand why MCC is now fully functional !

Well.

 This bug is going to close. 

Now :
Linux localhost 3.14.24-desktop-1.mga4 #1 SMP Sat Nov 15 23:54:03 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
glibc-2.18-9.5.mga4

 My PC is OK and RPM/URPMI/MCC is fully functionnal.

Thanks for you help.

P.S;: I don't understand this bug !

Not sure if this bug should be closed yet, but the latest glibc update from
updates testing seems to have fixed the 5 minute delay on my system.

CRAP!  I now have this same issue.   rpm works okay as ordinary user, but running rpm as root leads to an immediate "Illegal instruction" error.  How exactly did you fix this seilebost?

 kernel: traps: rpm[20407] trap invalid opcode ip:7fbdde78f24b sp:7fffa043f658 error:0 in libpthread-2.18.so[7fbdde77e000+18000]

Never mind.  It was a corrupted rpm data base.   I did a rebuild and that fixed it.  Weird error, though.

Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer 
maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug 
fix updates.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you plan to 
fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' to a later 
Mageia version.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that we weren't 
able to fix it before Mageia 4's end of life. If you are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Mageia, you are encouraged to click on "Version" and 
change it against that version of Mageia. If it's valid in several versions, 
select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's lifetime, 
sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a more recent Mageia 
release includes newer upstream software that fixes bugs or makes them obsolete.

If you would like to help fixing bugs in the future, don't hesitate to join the
packager team via our mentoring program [1] or join the teams that fit you 
most [2].

As announced over a month ago, Mageia 4 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2015-09-19. It is is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates.

This issue may have been fixed in a later Mageia release, so, if you still see it and didn't already do so: please upgrade to Mageia 5 (or, if you read this much later than this is written: make sure you run a currently maintained Mageia version)

If you are able to reproduce it against a maintained version of Mageia, you are encouraged to 
1. reopen this bug report, by changing the "Status" from "RESOLVED - OLD" to "REOPENED"
2. click on "Version" and change it against that version of Mageia. If you know it's valid in several versions, select the highest and add MGAxTOO in whiteboard for each other valid release.
Example: it's valid in cauldron and Mageia 5, set to cauldron and add MGA5TOO.
3. give as much relevant information as possible. If you're not an experienced bug reporter and have some time: please read this page:
https://wiki.mageia.org/en/How_to_report_a_bug_properly

If you see a similar issue, but are _not_sure_ it is the same, with the same cause, then please file a new bug report and mention this one in it (please include the bug number, too).
