Did a make oldconfig of a running 5.1.6 to 5.2-rc3. Boot process stalls at loading initramfs. It takes about 3 minutes till the kernel comes up. Randomly there are problems to configure network. Init system: systemd Arch: amd64 Filesystem: xfs on lvm Distro: Debian sid BTW on powerpc the kernel runs fine, though. I don't know really how to debug. So please give me some hints on how to. Thanks in advance Elimar
I'm getting the same issue with the vanilla Ubuntu amd64 Linux 5.2-rc3 and -rc4 kernels on a Dell XPS 15. I haven't left it 3 minutes yet to see if it every comes up. It never gets far enough to log anything in /var/log/syslog about the boot. This bug might also be related: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203839
Created attachment 283169 [details] syslog of boot So, I can confirm that 5.2-rc4 does indeed eventually complete booting after a 3 minute stall. I've attached /var/log/syslog covering the shutdown and reboot sequence. Boot started at around 15:23, but the first syslog messages appear at 15:26.
Same here. For me the clear cause is a Logitech Wireless Mouse USB receiver. When it is plugged in - I'm sitting and waiting for boot for ~3 minutes. When I boot my Dell E5510 laptop without it plugged in there's no boot delay. 5.2 rc4, Ubuntu 19.04.
I can confirm that unplugging Logitech Wireless Mouse USB receiver seems to fix the boot itself fine. Plugin the receiver after booting takes another 2-3 minutes to get the mouse (gpm) working again. Well compiling hid, usbhid directly into the kernel (not as a module) gets me a running system within a fingersnip including my mouse ;-) So where we do have to file the bug now? klibs/kinit seemdst be the wron place here?

Reverting git revert 4ceabaf79 git revert a025a18fe as recommended in https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=203741 solved the problem too.

Good, those 2 reverts are queued up in: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/hid/hid.git/log/?h=for-5.2/fixes So they should show up in an upcoming 5.2-rc# release.
