| Summary | 0006722: pci errors fill up syslog using Realtek usb device | ||||
| Description | Hi, Informational - Since moving to this kernel , System log fills hardrive with pci errors in relation to the Realtek usb device. There is some clear error with the Driver. Prior to this upgrade from Kernel 4 to 5 this was not a problem. Linux [hostname] 5.6.0-kali2-amd64 0000001 SMP Debian 5.6.14-2kali1 (2020-06-10) x86_64 GNU/Linux lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Kali Description: Kali GNU/Linux Rolling Release: 2020.2 Codename: kali-rolling lsusb => Bus 001 Device 002: ID 0bda:2838 Realtek Semiconductor Corp. RTL2838 DVB-T lspci => 2:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8723BE PCIe Wireless Network Adapter Subsystem: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. Dell Wireless 1801 Flags: bus master, fast devsel, latency 0, IRQ 16, IOMMU group 8 I/O ports at d000 [size=256] Memory at df100000 (64-bit, non-prefetchable) [size=16K] Capabilities: <access denied> Kernel driver in use: rtl8723be Kernel modules: rtl8723be lsmod | grep rtl rtl8723be 106496 0 btcoexist 167936 1 rtl8723be rtl8723_common 28672 1 rtl8723be rtl_pci 32768 1 rtl8723be btrtl 24576 1 btusb rtlwifi 102400 4 rtl_pci,rtl8723be,btcoexist,rtl8723_common mac80211 892928 3 rtl_pci,rtl8723be,rtlwifi bluetooth 667648 5 btrtl,btintel,btbcm,btusb cfg80211 864256 2 rtlwifi,mac80211 Seems like similar bug as.... https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1521173 | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Run airodump-ng to the wan/usb interface. Log fills rapidly to TB's and system then effectively halts due to drive being full!! | ||||
| Additional Information | Workaround - Disabled aer and msi in the kernel boot options for grub. **When AER is enabled, a PCI Express device will automatically send an error message to the PCIe root port above it when the device captures an error. The Root Port, upon receiving an error reporting message, internally processes and logs the error message in its PCI Express capability structure /etc/default/grub GRUB_DEFAULT=0 GRUB_TIMEOUT=5 GRUB_DISTRIBUTOR=`lsb_release -i -s 2> /dev/null || echo Debian` GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_DEFAULT="quiet pci=noaer,nomsi" GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="" | ||||

The driver does not appear to have aer support, who owns this ?. https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/PCI/pcieaer-howto.html from strace... 3809 ioctl(3, SIOCETHTOOL, 0x7ffdfc154670) = 0 3809 fstat(1, {st_mode=S_IFIFO|0600, st_size=0, ...}) = 0 3809 brk(NULL) = 0x559f646ab000 3809 brk(0x559f646cc000) = 0x559f646cc000 3809 write(1, "driver: rtl8723be\nversion: 5.6.0"..., 235 <unfinished ...> 3763 <... read resumed>"driver: rtl8723be\nversion: 5.6.0"..., 128) = 128 |
