Bug Description

[SRU Justification]

[Impact]
In bug 1840239, HPET is disabled on some systems for they caused TSC
being marked unstable while it is not. This caused an regression as bug
1851216
that some systems may then hang at early, so a fix cherry picked
back from v5.3-rc1. However, this fix also introduce yet another
regression that some other users may hang at boot while PIT is diabled
in the previous fix.

[Fix]
Commit 979923871f69 ("x86/timer: Don't skip PIT setup when APIC is
disabled or in legacy mode") from v5.6-rc1, also backported to v5.4.19
and v5.5.3, fixes PIT setup in this case.

[Test Case]
Simply boot a patch kernel on systems affected and it shouldn't hang.

[Regression Potential]
Low. Stable patch and trivial backport.

[Other Info]
The same fix for bug 1851216 was also backported to Disco and Eoan, but
they were then fixed with this 979923871f69 commit backported in bug
1866858
and bug 1867051, which pulls v5.4 stable patches into Disco and
Eoan correspondingly, leaving B/OEM-B the only victims so far.

========== Original Bug Description ==========

After the update to install kernel 4.15.0-72-generic (a bit over a week ago) my computer will not boot. On boot, all I see is the purple screen with:
Loading Linux 4.15.0-72-generic ...
Loading initial ramdisk ...
and nothing happens. Just sits there. I've waited about 5-10 minutes on occasion but to no avail.
I've checked a number of logs in /var/log but not found anything.

If I go into the advanced options and select kernel 4.15.0-70-generic, the computer boots normally.

Hi, two questions.

1. do you have dmesg booting with a -72 kernel? The one attached is -70.

2. Could you try booting with an extra kernel parameter "hpet=disable"?

Hello You-Sheng,
Thanks for responding.
I tried "hpet=disable" on a boot for both -70 and -72. No change. Kernel -72 still just stops, but -70 boots OK. As for the dmesg, I don't seem to be able to get any logging / messaging for -72. The only reference I can find for it is in the dpkg log when it was installed back on 4-Dec-2019. It's as if it does not even start. For what it's worth I've attached the dmesg for the -70 boot with "hpet=disable".

    x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets

    BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1851216

    Recent Intel chipsets including Skylake and ApolloLake have a special
    ITSSPRC register which allows the 8254 PIT to be gated. When gated, the
    8254 registers can still be programmed as normal, but there are no IRQ0
    timer interrupts.

    Some products such as the Connex L1430 and exone go Rugged E11 use this
    register to ship with the PIT gated by default. This causes Linux to fail
    to boot:

      Kernel panic - not syncing: IO-APIC + timer doesn't work! Boot with
      apic=debug and send a report.

    The panic happens before the framebuffer is initialized, so to the user, it
    appears as an early boot hang on a black screen.

    Affected products typically have a BIOS option that can be used to enable
    the 8254 and make Linux work (Chipset -> South Cluster Configuration ->
    Miscellaneous Configuration -> 8254 Clock Gating), however it would be best
    to make Linux support the no-8254 case.

    Modern sytems allow to discover the TSC and local APIC timer frequencies,
    so the calibration against the PIT is not required. These systems have
    always running timers and the local APIC timer works also in deep power
    states.

    So the setup of the PIT including the IO-APIC timer interrupt delivery
    checks are a pointless exercise.

    Skip the PIT setup and the IO-APIC timer interrupt checks on these systems,
    which avoids the panic caused by non ticking PITs and also speeds up the
    boot process.

    Thanks to Daniel for providing the changelog, initial analysis of the
    problem and testing against a variety of machines.

Hi Anthony,

As you may have found, this commit was landed in bug 1851216 for a possible system hang due to bug 1840239, and since it is a solution backported from v5.3-rc1, and you also stated this can be reproduced in v5.5-rc1, then you may probably want to either 1) try a slightly newer v5.5-rc5 mainline kernel[1], or 2) file a upstream bug in kernel bugzilla[2].

Hi You-Sheng,

Also I'll try putting some debug code around in that commit to see if I can identify anything.

Hi, for those who still suffers from this issue, it was a regression issue caused by commit f723dd269d07 "x86/timer: Skip PIT initialization on modern chipsets"), which was backported to 4.15.0-71 in bug 1851216 as a fix for some other platforms. So, please try latest mainline kernel[1] as possible as there might be yet another fix to this regression, then we may finally cherry-pick it back to 4.15 and fix hardware platforms of either group. As far as we know, this issue was still reproducible on v5.5-rc5, so you may want to try something newer than that directly.

Hello all,
Does anyone know if this bug will cause a problem upgrading to Ubuntu 20.04 LTS? I assume it will as we're stuck using an older kernel and 20.04 is based on kernel 5.4. Or, will it simply upgrade and keep us on the older kernel?

@Anthony, you can try focal kernel directly on your Bionic installation first.

  $ printf "deb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal main restricted universe multiverse\ndeb http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ focal-updates main restricted universe multiverse\n" > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/focal.list
  $ sudo apt update
  $ sudo apt install linux-modules-extra-5.4.0-26-generic linux-firmware/focal

And, it seems an upstream fix commit 979923871f69 ("x86/timer: Don't skip PIT setup when APIC is disabled or in legacy mode") has been backported to v5.4.19 and therefore focal kernel included that in bug 1863588 since at least 5.4.0-15. So it should be fine for you to use focal kernel now.

Or, maybe you don't bother upgrade kernels from Focal. Just use 5.3 kernels from Bionic, as they should have the same fix since 5.3.0-46.

Sorry for the late reply. I'm not going to let you compile kernel, as least for now. I promise.

So it's pretty simple here. After you ran following two commands:

  $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:vicamo/ppa-1856387
  $ sudo apt-get update

apt has rebuilt its available packages database for install, and all that you will do next is to install one or more packages listed in the ppa "View package details" link[1]. Since you were on 4.15 generic kernel, please try following:

  $ sudo apt install linux-modules-extra-4.15.0-100-generic=4.15.0-100.101+lp1856387 \
      linux-headers-4.15.0-100-generic=4.15.0-100.101+lp1856387

Note for the "=" sign. It will install all the prerequisite packages as well. Then you reboot and select to boot from 4.15.0-100-generic kernel from grub's menu, and see if now you boot into GUI as expected long time ago.

If you're also interested in having a try on -oem kernels, use:

  $ sudo apt install linux-image-unsigned-4.15.0-1080-oem=4.15.0-1080.90+lp1856387 \

This bug is awaiting verification that the kernel in -proposed solves the problem. Please test the kernel and update this bug with the results. If the problem is solved, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-done-bionic'. If the problem still exists, change the tag 'verification-needed-bionic' to 'verification-failed-bionic'.

If verification is not done by 5 working days from today, this fix will be dropped from the source code, and this bug will be closed.

See https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation how to enable and use -proposed. Thank you!

Thanks for your great work. I have just verified that the kernel works as it should.

I don't know if I am supposed to add a tag as well or how to do it.

Again, thanks.
