systemd 100% CPU on OrangePi One


kcn

Recommended Posts

Hi!

Periodically, time in two-three days, sharply increases CPU utilization, the system becomes disfunctional.

SD card and power supply maybe not the best, but they working fine in other systems and I'm tried others.
SSH hangs on login while this problem is actual, but i have a serial connection, so can investigate in real time.
Please, advise, what to look when this situation came again?

rufik, where to find this config?

$ cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/cpuinfo_min_freq
240000

 

Tido, there are no wireless adapters connected. Only external USB hard drive attached.

What is the settings of your /etc/default/cpufrequtils

 

Change GOVERNOR=ondemand to interactive or conservative

Then reboot
I also believe you can run (as root)

# /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils restart

# /etc/init.d/cpufrequtils restart

or

# service cpufrequtils restart

I have mine on conservative...this way it ramps up and ramps down rather than just jumps to the frequency

 

Ah found it...

https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/Fedora/15/html/Power_Management_Guide/cpufreq_governors.html

not "armbian" perse, but the information is accurate

Quote

3.2.1. CPUfreq Governor Types

This section lists and describes the different types of CPUfreq governors available in Fedora 15.

 

cpufreq_performance

The Performance governor forces the CPU to use the highest possible clock frequency. This frequency will be statically set, and will not change. As such, this particular governor offers no power saving benefit. It is only suitable for hours of heavy workload, and even then only during times wherein the CPU is rarely (or never) idle.

 

cpufreq_powersave

By contrast, the Powersave governor forces the CPU to use the lowest possible clock frequency. This frequency will be statically set, and will not change. As such, this particular governor offers maximum power savings, but at the cost of the lowest CPU performance.

The term "powersave" can sometimes be deceiving, though, since (in principle) a slow CPU on full load consumes more power than a fast CPU that is not loaded. As such, while it may be advisable to set the CPU to use the Powersave governor during times of expected low activity, any unexpected high loads during that time can cause the system to actually consume more power.

The Powersave governor is, in simple terms, more of a "speed limiter" for the CPU than a "power saver". It is most useful in systems and environments where overheating can be a problem.

 

cpufreq_ondemand

The Ondemand governor is a dynamic governor that allows the CPU to achieve maximum clock frequency when system load is high, and also minimum clock frequency when the system is idle. While this allows the system to adjust power consumption accordingly with respect to system load, it does so at the expense of latency between frequency switching. As such, latency can offset any performance/power saving benefits offered by the Ondemand governor if the system switches between idle and heavy workloads too often.

For most systems, the Ondemand governor can provide the best compromise between heat emission, power consumption, performance, and manageability. When the system is only busy at specific times of the day, the Ondemand governor will automatically switch between maximum and minimum frequency depending on the load without any further intervention.

 

cpufreq_userspace

The Userspace governor allows userspace programs (or any process running as root) to set the frequency. This governor is normally used in conjunction with the cpuspeed daemon. Of all the governors, Userspace is the most customizable; and depending on how it is configured, it can offer the best balance between performance and consumption for your system.

 

cpufreq_conservative

Like the Ondemand governor, the Conservative governor also adjusts the clock frequency according to usage (like the Ondemand governor). However, while the Ondemand governor does so in a more aggressive manner (that is from maximum to minimum and back), the Conservative governor switches between frequencies more gradually.

This means that the Conservative governor will adjust to a clock frequency that it deems fitting for the load, rather than simply choosing between maximum and minimum. While this can possibly provide significant savings in power consumption, it does so at an ever greater latency than the Ondemand governor.

 

Better yet...armbian docs and further really good forum entries

Smells like filesystem corruption. If the contents of /boot/armbianEnv.txt really look like this garbage you should immediately check installation integrity using armbianmonitor -v.

Indeed, armbianmonitor -v confirmed that the file system is damaged:

pione:~$ sudo armbianmonitor -v
Starting package integrity check. This might take some time. Be patient please...
It appears you may have corrupt packages.
This is usually a symptom of filesystem corruption caused by SD cards or eMMC
dying or burning the OS image to the installation media went wrong.
The following changes from packaged state files were detected:
/var/lib/rpimonitor/updatestatus.txt

Reinstalled with new image, modified cpufrequtils (MIN_SPEED=480000, GOVERNOR=conservative). This did not help.

Filesystem is ok:

pione:~$ sudo armbianmonitor -v
Starting package integrity check. This might take some time. Be patient please...
It appears you don't have any corrupt files or packages!

Now trying minimal setup with only minidlna installed...

There are two log files attached: current_journal.log contains current logs since last spontaneous reboot this night. This time, there was no anomaly CPU utilization yet (system installed last evening). Second file - old_journal.log is from previous setup, when issue occured many times.

Manual for systemd management is very good, but when issue happens, systemd becomes uncontrollable. Any command looks like this:

# systemctl reboot
Failed to set wall message, ignoring: Connection timed out
Failed to reboot system via logind: Connection timed out
Failed to start reboot.target: Connection timed out

I think to try Armbian with legacy kernel. I have an OrangePi Lite working stable with such version.

old_journal.log

current_journal.log

Tido, this was just for example. Any other command with systemctl like status, restart, etc, outputs "Connection timed out".

For system restart helps "reboot -f". But sometimes even serial console hangs, then only power cycle.
