Bug 283318 – sys-power/acpid-1.0.10_p3 daemon crash

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED UPSTREAM

[Description Anton Bolshakov 2009-08-31 11:45:55 UTC]

acpid daemon crashes sometime (seems) then I turn off an external monitor by using:
xrandr --output LVDS --auto
xrandr --output VGA-0 --off
followed by usb mouse and keyboard unplugging.

Here is what I managed to capture so far:

[Comment 1 Mikhail Krivtsov 2009-09-24 06:59:53 UTC]

It doesn't crash. Due to input devices removal acpid silly exits ceasing to work. ;-)

When keyboard or mouse is unplugged corresponding /dev/input/event* item disappears and acpid starts complaining "acpid: input layer read error: No such device (19)" and then very soon exits with message "acpid: too many errors reading input layer - aborting".

[Comment 2 Mikhail Krivtsov 2009-10-07 19:13:36 UTC]

Created attachment 206356 [details, diff]
patch for acpid-1.0.10-netlink4 to survive input device removal

[Comment 3 Anton Bolshakov 2009-10-08 00:35:08 UTC]

Thank you, Mikhail.
Did you write it yourself? We'd need to submit it to upstream first then, before it could go to gentoo's portage ...

[Comment 4 Mikhail Krivtsov 2009-10-08 05:14:36 UTC]

Yes, I did it myself.
And I also posted the patch at https://sourceforge.net/projects/acpid/ (http://sourceforge.net/support/tracker.php?aid=2865548)

[Comment 5 Gareth McClean 2010-03-09 22:21:23 UTC]

This bug still exists in the current stable release of sys-power/acpid (1.0.10_p3). 

Any update of when the fix will become mainstream?

Its a bit of a pain on headless servers as when acpid stops working as you can no longer perform a soft power-down using the power-button.

Thanks to Mikhail, it's in the upstream since netlink5 and the latest version is:
acpid-2.0.2.tar.gz 
http://tedfelix.com/linux/acpid-netlink.html

Mobile Herd just need to bump the new version.
