???

The boot menu has entries for 4.9.35 only.
Tried the whole operation twice, on two mga6 installations on different partitions on the same disk and the result was precisely the same.
The partitions were /dev/sda4 and /dev/sda5 and looking in /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
there are these entries:
        set root='hd0,gpt4'
....
        linuxefi /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.38-....	
....
        set root='hd0,gpt5'
....
        linux /boot/vmlinuz-4.9.38
and e.g.
        menuentry 'Mageia (4.9.38-desktop-1.mga6) 6 (on /dev/sda5)'

so it looks like things are OK at this level.
I thought that this might solve the problem but it is still looking at grub.cfg:

No effect.  How does one update the bootloader?

 "How does one update the bootloader?"

I always run drakboot after a kernel install on a multi-boot system.

@James - comment 11
Thanks, I'll give that a try.  Meanwhile on this system things went OK.

mga6  x86_64 UEFI  nvidia GTX 770
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K CPU @ 4.00GHz
Asus Gigabyte Sniper Z.97 motherboard

Installed all the update candidates (the microcode had already been installed).

No problems.  Rebooted OK.

$ uname -r
4.9.38-desktop-1.mga6

Firefox, virtualbox, stellarium, LO, glmark2, stress; all worked fine.

After using drakboot the system reported in comment 10 now shows all entries in the advanced options menu at boot time.  kernel 4.9.38 running the Mate desktop without any problems.  Tried the usual tests - no issues.

Aorus laptop
Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-5700HQ CPU @ 2.70GHz
twin nvidia GeForce GTX 965M

16 GB RAM

Installed the update candidates and rebooted.

The old kernel came up, with no other choice.
Ran drakboot and rebooted.
New kernel available but the boot went wrong somewhere - a 2 minute timeout whiletrying to mount two NFS shares then a stack trace.
"Starting fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed"
This appeared to hang so a forced shutdown and reboot was necessary.
This time it booted smoothly to the desktop and everything was functional under the new kernel, including NFS shares.  Tried one of these - vlc with a video file on another machine.  No problem.  Could also access a shared directory of ruby scripts and data files.

The Gimp and other applications like stress, glmark2, stellarium, firefox and emacs worked fine.

fix Fans blowing at max speed after resuming - ThinkPad X1/T4xx series (bko#191181)

This seems present now on my HP laptop. I suspect a regression here.

Resume at timestamp 9477

Created attachment 9510 [details]
journal.txt

The relevant bit of the journal. 'G' key doesn't work very well :D

I've suspended/resumed a few times this morning to test this further and not had any recurrence so it'll depend on your judgement Thomas. It could be missing the firmware.

There's nothing glaringly wrong in the logs that's different from when it resumes normally.

When it happened it was the first suspend after rebooting for the kernel update and seemed to need a cold boot to fix.

(In reply to claire robinson from comment #16)

So the fans worked as intended on 4.9.35-1 ?

Yes, and seem to be doing so again now.

So it's doing it again. That's twice out of about 6 or 7 suspends.

Thomas pushed a new kernel version a few days ago but did not update this bug report, so doing it now.

Advisory:
Updated kernel packages fixes security and other bugs.

This kernel update is based on upstream 4.9.39 and fixes at least the
following security issue:

Linux kernel built with the VirtIO GPU driver(CONFIG_DRM_VIRTIO_GPU) support
is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while creating a
virtio gpu object in virtio_gpu_object_create(). A user/process could use
this flaw to leak host kernel memory potentially resulting in Dos
(CVE-2017-10810).

Other Mageia kernel specific fixes in this updates:
- enable support for NFS4_1 and NFS4_2 (mga#21182)
- ALSA: hda/realtek - New codecs support for ALC215/ALC285/ALC289
- ALSA: hda/realtek - New codec device ID for ALC1220
- platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Add wapf4 quirk for the X302UA (mga#18756)
- fix Fans blowing at max speed after resuming - ThinkPad X1/T4xx series
  (bko#191181)

For other upstream fixes in this update, read the referenced changelogs.

I've installed the kernel 4.9.39 update yesterday on Mageia 6 x86_64, it's been running smoothly up to now.

I didn't update the bug yet since it still needs some fixes...

Note that this 4.9.40-1 kernel is also in cauldron getting tested too.

And I have the desktop and server x86_64 kernels running on systems here

In a Vbox client, M6, Plasma, 32-bit

Updated 32-bit and 64-bit server kernel from 4.9.35-1. VirtualBox on 64-bit install only, but was NOT yet updated to 5.1.26.

Both are OK. Nvidia modules built without incident. After reboot, tried several apps on each install. No issues noted.

Seem ok desktop x86_64

No dkms modules though on this one.

4 suspends without problems. Ran a cpu hungry task to make the fan run and it stopped normally afterwards.

Re comment 10, this kernel has been running for over a week on a production machine without any issues.

Mate desktop running fine on this production system.
virtualbox (5.1.22) failed to boot a session - message recommended /sbin/vboxconfig.
Cannot remember how to get past this so installed the virtualbox update and all was fine.  I guess I should have left out the dkms-virtualbox.

Running on x86_64 legacy BIOS, MSI GT60 with i5 3230M an NVIDIA GTX 670M since this morning, no issue so far after browsing, multimedia usage, packaging work, suspend and resume. I'm using nvidia-current thanks to mageia-prime, the dkms module built and works fine.

Previously created M6 i586 Xfce LiveDVD runs as a Vbox client.
M6 x86_64 Gnome LiveDVD runs as a Vbox client.
M6 x86_64 Plasma LiveDVD, installs and updates as a Vbox client.

Test platform:
Intel Core i7-2600K Sandy Bridge 3.4GHz
GIGABYTE GA-Z68X-UD3-B3 LGA 1155 MoBo
GIGABYTE GV-N440D3-1GI Nvidia GeForce GT 440 (Fermi) 1GB
RTL8111/8168B PCI Express 1Gbit Ethernet
DRAM 16GB (4 x 4GB)

Looks great, excellent exercise early in the life of M6

Confirmed dkms-virtualbox 5.2.22 would build. No issues over several suspends and general use. Be glad if it could fix my G key but otherwise it's lookin reat.

Validatin so vbox kmods can be built.

Just waiting for the updated advisory now Thomas.

Advisory, also added to svn

subject: Updated kernel packages fixes security and other bugs
CVE:
 - CVE-2017-10810
src:
  5:
   core:
     - kernel-4.9.40-1.mga6
     - kernel-userspace-headers-4.9.40-1.mga6
     - kmod-vboxadditions-5.1.22-24.mga6

description: |
  This kernel update is based on upstream 4.9.40 and fixes atleast the
  following security issues:

  Linux kernel built with the VirtIO GPU driver(CONFIG_DRM_VIRTIO_GPU) support
  is vulnerable to a memory leakage issue. It could occur while creating a
  virtio gpu object in virtio_gpu_object_create(). A user/process could use
  this flaw to leak host kernel memory potentially resulting in Dos
  (CVE-2017-10810).

  It also contains followup fixes to the Stack Clash (CVE-2017-1000370,
  CVE-2017-1000371) fixes security issues resolved in kernels released
  at end of June, 2017.

  Other Mageia kernel specific fixes in this updates:
  - enable support for NFS4_1 and NFS4_2 (mga#21182)
  - ALSA: hda/realtek - New codecs support for ALC215/ALC285/ALC289
  - ALSA: hda/realtek - New codec device ID for ALC1220
  - platform/x86: asus-nb-wmi: Add wapf4 quirk for the X302UA (mga#18756)

  For other upstream fixes in this update, read the referenced changelogs.
