Bug 362393 – sys-auth/consolekit-0.4.3 & 0.4.4 resuming from suspend-to-disk - console-kit-daemon[10739]: GThread-ERROR: file gthread-posix.c: line 348 (g_thread_create_posix_impl): error 'Invalid argument' during 'pthread_attr_setsch

• Product: Gentoo Linux
• Status: RESOLVED TEST-REQUEST

[Description Da Fox 2011-04-07 06:18:44 UTC]

After resuming my laptop from suspend to disk many actions (such as inserting an USB-stick) give an error message about permissions and fail to complete (e.g. usb-stick is not mounted).
Some research shows that console-kit-daemon is no longer running:
1) Output of ck-list-sessions is empty (i.e. no active sessions)
2) /var/log/messages shows that console-kit-daemon crashed:

This shows that console-kit-daemon crashed:
GThread-ERROR: file gthread-posix.c: line 348 (g_thread_create_posix_impl): error 'Invalid argument' during 'pthread_attr_setschedparam (&attr, &sched)'

Both =sys-auth/console-kit-0.4.3 and =sys-auth/console-kit-0.4.4 exhibit this problem.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Reboot computer, login, verify console-kit functionality (automounting an USB-stick should work)
2. Suspend-to-disk, resume
3. Verify console-kit unfunctionality (automounting an USB-stick no longer works)
3b. See above error message in /var/log/messages
Actual Results:  
Console-kit-daemon crashed, various actions depending on console-kit no longer work (e.g. automounting fails)

Expected Results:  
Console-kit-daemon does not crash, various actions depending on console-kit continue to work (e.g. automounting succeeds)

Simply restarting console-kit (/etc/init.d/consolekit restart) does not help because this wil not start a new console-kit session. In order to get a new session a full logout/login appears to be necessary, which kind of defeats the purpose of suspend-to-disk.
This is a bit of a setback since I only recently figured out how to get console-kit to work (I use the 'slim' login-manager i.c.w. xfce)

Please clean up your cflags and rebuild consolekit dependencies (glib looks like a good target).

After re-emerging and updating world with sane flags to latest version of consolekit, try again.   Reopen if this is still a problem after doing so.
