raspberry pi 1 (armv6l) latest image halts instead of reboot
Last modified: 2019-11-01 11:08:51 UTC
Recently i decided to do a full upgrade on one of my raspberry pi's which have opensuse tumbleweed and was rebooting fine. First thing i noticed that after update & reboot it didn't booted by itself, so i have to power cycle it. Later i noticed that either "shutdown -r now", or "reboot" .. and even 'echo "b" > /proc/sysrq-trigger' is not working on newer distribution! it's simply halted and needs to be power cycled manually to reboot! i even attached a serial console and the system is looking like this: [ OK ] Stopped File System Check on Root Device. [ OK ] Stopped Create Static Device Nodes in /dev. [ OK ] Reached target Shutdown. [ OK ] Reached target Final Step. [ OK ] Started Reboot. [ OK ] Reached target Reboot. [ 144.054311] reboot: Restarting system And that's all! No reboot.. forever in that state. Older images on the same hardware rebooting fine, i even tested a bunch of other raspberries (1B and 1B+) and they all hangs on reboot now. Steps to reproduce: 1. Download latest image from HCL:Raspberry_Pi & save it to sd card. 2. Try to reboot the system... PS. "downstream kernel" image from HCL:Raspberry_Pi is not working at all, stuck in a booting loop according to serial console.
I must add, that i think is't a critical issue as rebooting is very substantial part of a system management process (i.e. upgrade). And it's not that good if a physical access or additional tools is needed to reboot the system... That way now i forced to use my older working tumbleweed images (which is incompatible by packages now if i want to install/update something), or even another OS ...
Is this a kernel regression? Please test the new image but with an older kernel that has worked.
Closing due to lack of response.
