Bug 254502 – net-wireless/bluez-utils-2.25-r1: udev event handler delays system boot

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED FIXED

[Description Ambroz Bizjak 2009-01-11 00:12:47 UTC]

My laptop has an integrated bluetooth device which is recognized by the kernel early (since kernel 2.6.28, didn't work before). This is causing the udev event handler to run the script /lib/udev/bluetooth.sh (part of net-wireless/bluez-utils) early in boot. This script then attempts to start the bluetooth service (/etc/init.d/bluetooth), which halts, probably because it shouldn't be executed that early. This delays the whole boot by 60 seconds:

* Waiting for uevents to be processed...
devadm settle timeout of 60 seconds reached, the event queue contains:
  '/sys/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.1/usb6/6-2/6-2:1.0/bluetooth/hci0'

The bluetooth script shouldn't be naively starting the bluetooth service, as bluetooth events can happen that early. Instead it should somehow schedule the service for starting later.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:

[Comment 1 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2009-01-13 20:25:36 UTC]

you are missing emerge --info. If your baselayout/openrc is new enough it should just schedule it for start later.

[Comment 3 Sven Müller 2009-01-25 17:01:14 UTC]

Same here, but in my case it's a pci wlan card. 

It occured after a complete new ~amd64 install. 

[Comment 4 Petteri Räty (RETIRED) 2009-02-22 21:26:37 UTC]

I would guess this is fixed in in 3* that is supposed to go stable soon

[Comment 5 crusaderky 2009-02-23 14:50:13 UTC]

Confirmed here on amd64.

udev-124-r1
bluez-utils-2.25-r1
bluez-libs-2.25-r1
   WORKS

udev-133
bluez-utils-2.25-r1
bluez-libs-2.25-r1
   TIMEOUTS

udev-135-r4
bluez-utils-2.25-r1
bluez-libs-2.25-r1
   TIMEOUTS

udev-133
bluez-utils-3.36
bluez-libs-3.36
   WORKS

<bluez-utils-3* and <bluez-libs-3* really should require <udev-133 (or maybe <udev-130?)

For my case I found the solution. Make sure udev is runlevel sysinit and not in boot or default. 

[Comment 7 Pacho Ramos 2009-09-09 17:38:13 UTC]

bluez-utils-3* went to stable some time ago, Can this be closed then?

[Comment 8 Pacho Ramos 2010-02-01 20:54:44 UTC]

Fixed in current stable (bluez-2 should be dropped soon also :-/ )
