CPU: Vortex86 SoC (800MHz) - I *think* this is pretty much a 486, I
could be wrong
RAM: 256MB
Swap: partitioned, about 236MB (just what the installer recommended)
Kernel: 2.6.32-5-486
Debian: Squeeze (from installer daily build, updated after install;
this also happens with Emdebian)
Storage is a 4GB flash card (I don't have sdparm or hdparm, and I
can't install either to get more info. If there's another way, let me
know.) It was formatted ext2.
My problem started when I installed avahi-daemon - the system crashed,
and I could not recover to a useable state. So I reinstalled the
system and approached it a little more carefully.
>From a fresh Squeeze install, I installed every dependency of
avahi-daemon (no recommends), and nothing bad happened. When I
installed avahi-daemon itself (aptitude -R install avahi-daemon), it
got to the stage of setting up the package when my screen filled with
what looked like a stack trace:
http://heeris.id.au/stuff/SBCError.jpg
Anything else went past too fast to see, sorry. I also got the
numlock/capslock blinking lights.
I can start in recovery mode, but when I log in as root I see the message
::: No such file or directory
(This is un-Google-able!)
First thing, I run fsck on the root FS, and one of the first problems is:
Unconnected directory inode 98170 (/var/lib/dpkg/???)
I hit "y" a few times when prompted, then Ctrl+C and run "fsck -y"
instead. There's a lot of cleanup, and I reboot.
Now if I run aptitude, I get:
E: 7/.aptitude - mkdir (2: No such file or directory)
E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure
-a' to correct the problem.
...and then a segfault from aptitude. Funny thing is, when I run the
dpkg command, it just says
Setting up avahi-daemon (0.6.27-2)
...and back to the prompt. Next aptitude run, same mkdir error and segfault.
Anyway, suffice to say it's all pretty damaged. Another example is, as root:
# groups
groups: cannot find name for group ID 0
I'm not too interested in saving the system, it's a dev environment
and is completely expendable (because I use source control and make
backups, of course). So I can reinstall the system, but then I *would*
like to (a) install avahi-daemon if possible, and (b) figure out what
is causing this, because I'd rather not install some other package in
a few weeks and hose the system again... if I can help it.
I could use some help getting to the bottom of this! I can boot off my
installer USB into rescue mode, and I can do some very limited things
from recovery mode on the partition itself. I'm not averse to
recompiling packages (including the kernel, if there's room). I'll
keep the damaged system around for diagnostics until I can't get any
more info from it.
So if anyone can help, even with a "have you tried <this>..." or
"maybe it's the <something>..." remark, I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Jason

That will have to wait until a reinstall - I can only boot in recovery
mode, and I can't install anything because dpkg hits unrecoverable
errors (this time, "syntax error: unknown group 'crontab' in
statoverride file").
I did run memtest86+ a couple of weeks ago (no particular reason) and
it was fine, but a hardware problem is not out of the question. Not
sure how to catch it if memtest can't see it though.

Yep, every time. I just wonder if somehow the avahi-daemon package is
the only thing I'm trying to install that, say, requires that much
more memory than any other package for configuration.

They're from the iiNet mirror (http://ftp.iinet.net.au/debian/debian)

This is from memory, but I ran "fsck.ext2 -c -C 0 -p -f /dev/sdb1" and
after running for a while said something like:
updating bad blocks inode XXXXXXXX; /dev/sdb1: XXXX/XXXX files
(1.6% non-contiguous), XXXXX/XXXXX blocks
So... if there were bad blocks, it didn't make a fuss about it.
I'm going to commence a destructive badblocks scan ("badblocks -b 4096
-s -w /dev/sdb1") - can badblocks be given an entire device instead of
a partition? Or does that not make sense?

Yikes. You really need to track this one down, and find out whether it is
any different from a regular 486. The devil IS in the details, and these
older boxes are NOT regularly tested anymore.
In fact, we can't really attest that Debian does work perfectly even on
straight Intel i486 anymore, let alone on 486-alike chips: We depend on
sheer dumb luck that the kernel and gcc have not regressed (very little/no
testing is done on 486s anymore), and some packages might not be
486-compatible at all.
But your issue is NOT an avahi bug (package, compiler or otherwise). It is
either a kernel bug *or* the kernel is simply incompatible with your
vortex86 processor in a way that went undetected by the sanity checks at
kernel startup.

1. Set up a serial console (to capture crash data);
2. Make sure you're in condition to lose data;
3. Reproduce the crash, log *everything* since boot.
4. File a bug on bugzilla.kernel.org with all relevant information. This
does include the kernel config at the very least.
> http://heeris.id.au/stuff/SBCError.jpg
The box objected VERY HEAVILY to the ipv6 multicast operations trigerred by
avahi. Without fixing the underlying bug, your box will be unusable (lots
of other stuff are likely to trigger the same problem).

According to http://www.vortex86.com/index2.html
Vortex86 family integrates a high-performance processor that
supports x86 instruction set with 3 integer units, 3-way
superscalar architecture, and a fully pipelined floating point unit.
Hmm. According to /proc/cpinfo on the installer,
> 1. Set up a serial console (to capture crash data);

What do you mean by "everything"? Every command? That's not hard. All
the kernel messages? That's harder... The logs in /var/log do not seem
to contain *anything* about the session during which the crash occurs.
> 4. File a bug on bugzilla.kernel.org with all relevant information. This

It's just the Debian stock kernel config.

Given this, can you think of another way I might be able to trigger
the bug? If so, I might be able to do it without needing to reinstall
the system every time.

That's what I was afraid of. Thanks for the info, I'll see what I can do.

Well, no, and if I can't sort this out then I'll recompile without it

compiled right in?). But this might be a good opportunity to find a
bug before I go down that path.

It depends on the architecture and debian version. Please post a
proper bug report with reportbug that shows all the relevant version
information. Can you make this crash happen under an emulator like
qemu (hint: you can sudo chmod a+r /dev/hda && qemu -snapshot -hda
/dev/hda to temporarily test the current installation under qemu
without writing anything to disk).

that makes avahi trigger the crash, so I can do it a little more

Qemu defaults to X. Copying the system image to some machine that runs
X is probably the safest solution, you can then run qemu without any

Done, but avahi-daemon installs without a hitch (presumably because
the processor itself is part of the equation).

Ok. Then you need something to save the state of the system to disk on
panic. Kdump is probably easiest but it is not in debian yet. I have
only used Xen and qemu virtualization for my kernel debugging needs.

To save me more trouble, can anyone tell me what the key is to
building a kernel exactly the same as what's in
linux-image-2.6.32-5-486? I'm on a PC with amd64 arch, so I created a
i386 chroot:
sudo debootstrap --arch i386 squeeze ia32-chroot
http://ftp.iinet.net.au/debian/debian
I installed linux-source-2.6.32 (actually from sid, since the one in
squeeze FTBs). Unpack the source, and:
linux32 make menuconfig
...selecting 486 processor family. Then:
linux32 make-kpkg clean
CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=4 linux32 make-kpkg --initrd
--append-to-version=-custom1 kernel_image kernel_debug
The resulting kernel does not find the root fs, so clearly it is
somehow different to what's in the archive. Where can I get the exact
config for the official 486 kernel?
Cheers,
Jason

More RTFMing required on my part, sorry. In the DEBIAN.Readme for the

Each linux-image-* package provides the complete .config file that
was used to generate it. This file is installed in /boot.
So I found it in the deb package.

Before I go off to bugzilla, I just want to check that I've actually
got debugging information here, since to me it doesn't look that
different. Do I need to boot with a special kernel arg?

Looks like this bug was reported on the avahi upstream mailing list [1].
The person responding indicates a kernel problem, which makes sense when
you actually get a kernel panic as a result. This was also indicated on
this list.
The 'reportbug' tool will include quite a bit of information for you in
the report, so adding additional logs to the bug report may not even be
needed.
However, it appears that the log you included was the custom kernel you
attempted to use as directed by the others on this list. Make sure you
when you report the bug, you include relevant logs for the kernel
packaged by Debian.
Disabling support for ipv6 can actually be done via a kernel parameter,
so recompiling to remove ipv6 support should not be needed. Use the
kernel parameter "ipv6.disable=1".
Good luck!

I only used the custom kernel to get debugging information. The
configuration is the same, but I can do both.

You want them to tell you all of the optional features they did NOT
implement, i.e. in which ways are they different from Intel i486.
Hopefully, the answer is "none, we are fully compatible, even on the
optional features".

Yep, disabling IPv6 stops the crash!
So where should I report it, debian kernel bug tracker or upstream bug
tracker? I figured the former, since it's not a bleeding edge kernel
I'm running, but maybe I'm wrong.

I would first check to see if the problem still occurs in .35 from the
experimental repos. I believe it is much easier for them to provide a
fix when it can be backported from a newer upstream.

Anytime and subscribed :). That may even be an RC as full ipv6 was a
release goal of squeeze. Also, if it really was corrupting your
filesystem, I would think that would be a "critical" RC.
critical - makes unrelated software on the system (or the whole system)
break, or *causes serious data loss*, or introduces a security hole on
systems where you install the package. [1]
emphasis mine.
