Note that CVE-2025-21698 has been rejected.

Can someone confirm if can run dmesg as normal user, I can't 
and almost sure I could do it in the previous kernel, later I will confirm

I can't. I checked 6.6.74, and can't run it except as root there, either. I don't know when it changed, but checking some old kernels in Virtualbox, I can run it as an ordinary user in 6.6.56. I don't happen to have one handy that's between those two.

Found a 6.6.65, and I can run dmesg as an ordinary user there. So, it changed with the last kernel update. Could be that was considered a bugfix...

You can't run dmesg as a plain user since 6.6.62, it was a fix for bug #33771.

Probably later for (In reply to Giuseppe Ghibò from comment #27)

Later than 6.6.62 for mga9.

Ok, as for comment#c24 I noticed also that #33771 was initially intended only for  mga10. So, considering also newer CVE-2025-21703, better to postpone this bug for upcoming 6.6.79.

VirtualBox launches a Mageia client.
Bluetooth audio available without any configuration.
Videos played in vlc - switched seamlessly from one to another with the menu.
glmark2 running in parallel with four stress tests.  Two browsers loaded.
Youtube videos in firefox - sound and video OK.
Installed stellarium and filled one workspace by using

It now launches in a smaller frame by default (possibly - could be a hangover from previous settings).
LibreOffice working fine.  Launched kmahjongg but played only a few tiles.
Everything seems to work.
I have been having a lot of trouble recently trying to create a new vbox - it always fails at the start of formatting with an error like "cannot run val on undefined ...".  Shall investigate that further (dozens of hours of work already) and report back.

Everything works OK now.  Used a new copy of the Mageia9 iso with virtualbox and the installation in virtualbox was textbook.  It worked smoothly all the way through and the new box booted without problems.  So the desktop kernel is good for me.

Hi,

Installed kernel 6.6.79 in mga-x64 without issues

Works perfect for me.

Audio and video ok.
Apps ok.
Reboot and sleep ok.
Internet, wifi ok.

BTW, system use mesa-24.3.4-2 from testing... both today and when tested kernel 6.6.74 OK incl inxi -G as you see above.

Other than that system seems OK;

Plasma X11, Firefox, Thunderbird...
suspend-resume
hibernate-restore
wifi, sound.

Bottom line: this kernel seem to have some problem with nouveau

An updated file list would be helpful. Using qarepo's "fuzzy version" option draws in the correct files, but also draws in several expired virtualbox and xtables files.

Does switching back and forth between 6.6.74 and 6.6.79 provides consistent results with regarding of suspend, or you get random fails on both? Or depends also on usage time?

As I've noticed that sometimes in buggy bios this happens. A method for fixing (but can be omnicomphrensive) is to provide a custom/fixed acpi table, by dumping the current acpitable with acpidump, disassable/fixing and reassembling with iasl and provide the new acpitable in the initrd or boot cmdline. It's not trivial, as iasl would generally find syntax output errors even in the acpi table which is supposed to work, and IIRC we have also the iasl package utils outdated.

Linux mach3.hviaene.thuis 6.6.79-server-1.mga9 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Feb 21 18:40:41 UTC 2025 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Usual test of file types, NFS access, wifi, video and sound, internet. No problems encountered.

MGA9-64, Xfce, Celeron N2840, Chromebook

The following 5 packages are going to be installed:

- cpupower-6.6.79-1.mga9.x86_64
- kernel-desktop-6.6.79-1.mga9.x86_64
- kernel-desktop-latest-6.6.79-1.mga9.x86_64
- kernel-userspace-headers-6.6.79-1.mga9.x86_64
- lib64bpf1-6.6.79-1.mga9.x86_64

99MB of additional disk space will be used.

-- rebooted

- Chromium browser works
- libreoffice working


I think this is ready to be released.

Updated systems in comment 13, comment 15, comment 16 to the kernel 6.6.79, rebooted and did some quick checks.
No issues for now. Will report if I see any issue.

$ sys
System partition is /dev/nvme0n1p3
6.6.79-desktop-1.mga9

Updated system covered in comment #34 and rebooted the desktop kernel.
Repeated the earlier checks in Mate; stellarium, glmark2, bluetooth audio, Youtube videos in Firefox, word game in Falkon, stress tests...
Played an MP4 video and used the progress bar to seek forward and to rewind with no problem.  Used popup menu to generate a frame snapshot.  That appeared in 
~/Pictures as vlcsnap-2025-02-22-16h45m59s033.png.
Virtualbox launches the two 64-bit Mageia clients OK - not much to do as neither have any data and USB is not present.  At least bluetooth audio works - the Plasma signature tune plays loud and clear.  Switched between desktops: from Mate to Cinnamon then Plasma X11 amending this report live at the same time.
Mounted NFS shares and executed a ruby script which accessed remote data files.
All  looks good so far.

So far, on four systems; the one I reported (but forgot to tell this aspect of), and three other.  Will report on them soon.

When it failed, it was shortly after I had it return from hibernation.

I will tell if I see this again.  I have not seen this ever before not even with 
6.6.74.  That laptop suspends regularly automatically some minutes after my wife leaves it a few times each day.



> > 2) inxi -G fail: it just stops, not using CPU, I abort using Ctrl-C:

On my Thinkpad T510 that really use nouveau: no problem.  Detailed report in that system later.

For the failing system, do you want a full journal snippet, or something else I can provide?

BTW please trim citation - if citation is at all needed - to help keep bugs shorter to scroll through.

MGA9-64 Plasma on an HP Pavilion 15 laptop. No installation issues, and no new issues to report after the reboot. Suspend/resume works, but then it always does. Hibernation appears to work, and resume from that doesn't, but then it never has. I suspect it would work with the original (ugh) Windows 8 that came with it, but in the general scheme of things the loss of hibernation is a small price to pay using an enlightened OS like Mageia.

Also, MGA9-64 Plasma on my production desktop, i5-7500, Nvidia Quadro K620, using nvidia-current. Also no issues here. I have not tried suspend or hibernate on this machine in some time, as I never have occasion to use it. Everything else is working as expected.

Continuing from Comment #47

The nouveau problem have severe side effects in that IF something/user runs inxi -G or something else, even after terminating it with ctrl-C, eglinfo is still there, blocking suspend, hibernation and shutdown.

Suspending simply refuse and yu are back at login in 20 seconds.
Shutting down hangs, not even tty i.e ctrl-alt-F5 works, you have to REISUB - or as normal user cut power!

This is a regression in the very last kernel.

Even 6.6.77 was OK, so this system is using it now:

Strange:  Today on same system, inxi -G succeed with kernel 6.6.79-desktop-1.
However, for each such command, in journal i see:

feb 23 11:37:42 aspire kernel: nouveau 0000:01:00.0: bus: MMIO read of 00000000 FAULT at 122124 [ PRIVRING ]

However this line exist in journal for every session since long time.

It can hibernate OK.

No installation issues, and no new issues after the reboots. Setting lid-shutting to either hibernate or suspend instead does nothing, leading me to believe that the lid sensor on this 23-year-old hardware no longer works. However, everything else seems to work.

Seems inconsistent with nouveau.

What you could do, is a sort of table for every host, including kernel version and whether hibernation/resume, or suspend/resume is consistent (i.e. working all the times, sometimes yet, sometimes not, or not working all the times) or not.

As for the button pressing for suspend, IIRC that's another bug of systemd we have identified but IIRC we haven't released the specific newer version of systemd (should be 253.26) fixing that, i.e. that pressing the power button would shutdown the machine instead suspending.

So better to deal with "systemctl suspend", or from Plasma menu Power Session -> sleep.

No problems over the past 3 days running this on an old x86_64 AMD Phenom CPU with amdgpu driver. Firefox, video, LUKS, suspend/resume are fine. I did get a suspicious kernel log once on sleep (out of 10 cycles):

[101199.947027] systemd-sleep: page allocation failure: order:0, mode:0x100c02(GFP_NOIO|__GFP_HIGHMEM|__GFP_HARDWALL), nodemask=(null),cpuset=systemd-suspend.service,mems_allowed=0

(along with the call trace) but suspend and resume worked fine and I didn't see any lingering effects from this. As a bonus, the USB3 reset kernel logs I used to see on this motherboard every few seconds are gone.

CC: (none) => dan

Maybe low memory conditions? How much memory do you have?

On the overall this kernel seems pretty stable. I'd release and validate.

Speaking of systemd, our latest official version is 253.25+patches. Latest version of 253.x stable series is 253.30, maybe we could update this version to updates_testing?

It looks like there was lots of free RAM at the time, and I don't recall doing anything particularly memory-hungry at the time. But, looking more closely at the logs it appears to be related to the AMD GPU driver. It looks like the system aborted the suspend attempt as well. The next attempt a few hours later succeeded.

Here is a more complete log:

If you want you might try with mesa-24.3.4 from updates_testing. There will be 24.3.5 once out.

Two 64-bit Plasma systems, one 32-bit Xfce system. No installation issues. Dkms-broadcom-wl appeared to build and install with no issues on the install that is using it. 

No new issues are apparent after the reboot. Hibernate/restore seems to work as expected, but suspend/resume reboots instead of resuming. That is not new; it's the way it seems to work with the 6.6 series kernels.

Also, on the one install using the broadcom-wl driver with Network Manager, bug 33821 is still in effect.

No issues on the HP Probook 6550b with hanging up at shutdown, either.

There was more discussion after this comment. Do you still agree with the above? Dan, what do you think?

I can't say for certain that the page allocation failure I experienced never occurred with the last kernel. Given that the next suspend worked fine, it hasn't happened again, and there don't seem to be any bad effects from it, I wouldn't let it hold back a release.

Thanks, Dan.

Validating the update.

That means users loose unsaved work.

So no regression, OK to release yes.
Luckily, suspend-resume works on all systems i have tried.

Note that with my other HP laptop, suspend-resume works, but hibernate-restore doesn't. In my experience suspend and hibernate functions are different with different hardware and perhaps more importantly, different BIOS/UEFI firmware.

My 6550b is from 2010, Intel-based, Legacy BIOS with an "experimental" secure boot function that is disabled (even with the factory-supplied Windows 7) by default, using Grub2 as the bootloader. The Pavilion is from 2015, AMD-based, UEFI, using rEFInd as the bootloader.

I'm not at all surprised that they act differently for this issue.
