Last xbian-package-cec update breaks CEC #719

Closed Smultie closed 9 years ago

Smultie commented 9 years ago

Saw there was an update today (xbian-package-cec), installed it, saw it also updated xbian-package-kernel. After a reboot all I see is a rainbow screen.

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

Was there a backup created of the kernel and initramfs? If so, restore them and try again...

Smultie commented 9 years ago

Since I had a backup I tried reinstalling. Unfortunately the backup doesn't work either. So now I lost all my settings/MySQL/SickRage etc.

Great..

Smultie commented 9 years ago

Updating has been a real pita lately.

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

I meant a backup of those files on your original SD.

Smultie commented 9 years ago

Yeah, like I said: I thought that since I have a backup (from xbian-config, option 7) It would be fine to just reinstall. It wasn't.

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

Maybe that some juice for another issue. I never had problems with the backup feature, but i always have my settings on my NAS symlinked to the pi so haven't tested in a while.

rafdelre commented 9 years ago

I can confirm that on PI2 CEC does not work anymore withe latest update CEC

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

Are you sure this is CEC and not the kernel?

Smultie commented 9 years ago

Yesterday there was a wrong dependency in xbian-package-cec, last night's update fixes that but apparently has a dependency that's not available on fresh installs.

bairdy commented 9 years ago

I Had updated yesterday and it also broke with package 9.2.2.0-1-1430045420 but there was also another package released yesterday 9.2.2.0-1-1430044352 which was in the repo but no longer there which was working. when going to try and test cec is active and working over ssh i get the following on 9.2.2.0-1-1430045420 root@xbian ~ # cec-client No device type given. Using 'recording device' libXrandr.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Cannot load libcec.so where previously it gives the debug and allows to test input

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

So the very latest CEC doesn't break the system. It just breaks CEC?

bairdy commented 9 years ago

yeah thats correct

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

Update the title.

mk01 commented 9 years ago

libcec 2.2 by default links against libXrandr.so (X11) support.

it was corrected immediately on next APT rebuild window (1200am yesterday).

For me CEC works again after the last updates even when using the screensaver

doming52 commented 9 years ago

In my case, it doesn´t work properly. It works when I boot the Pi, but after a while it stops working and the Tv (Samsung) doesn´t recognize it. I tried to force hotplug in the config.txt but it didn´t make any difference.

bairdy commented 9 years ago

@doming52, what version of of the cec package are you running as anything below 9.2.2.0-1-1430117049 is broken with the latest kodi and doing what you have said as i had those issues but seem fixed with the latest update (running for 24 hours on still it has recognized it after the tv had been off overnight)

doming52 commented 9 years ago

I have the last version released 24 hours ago, but the problem is still on

rolftimmerman commented 9 years ago

Ok unfortunately it also stopped working for me again after a while :(

rolftimmerman commented 9 years ago

When CEC isn't working anymore and I connect to Kodi with Yatse than whole Kodi crashes... I'm trying to get a log but I can't login remotely anymore it seems.

jwamsterdam commented 9 years ago

I'm not sure if this is the same, but I have the latest updates as of now, and have these messages in kodi.log:

wlatendresse commented 9 years ago

I am not sure, if this is really connected to CEC, so please correct me, if I am wrong. This does NOT happen for the first time as well and maybe it is just a problem of Kodi in conjunction with screensavers, but it happens quite often, that kodi will just hang when it is in screensaver mode when I switch off my Samsung TV + my receiver (which it is connected to).

Following is the kodi.log excerpt for the time when it happens (according to the clock shown on the screensaver, 04:17 in this case):

I have the rest of the log as well in case it should be needed. The system has been updated up to 2015-04-30, no additional packages have been installed yet.

BTW: Kodi is STILL in this state, so I could issue some commands to find out more about what is actually happening, if I knew where to start ;-)

wlatendresse commented 9 years ago

Oh by the way, it is being said way to seldom anyway: Thanks to all of you guys from the XBian team for spending your time on the best Kodi distribution in our universe ;-)

wlatendresse commented 9 years ago

Well, too late, now it crashed totally again :-(

wlatendresse commented 9 years ago

And another one, since this happens EVERY TIME I switch off my receiver and TV. Should I enable DEBUG for any addons (or something else) to get more info?

Kodi crashed at 01:30

Kodi crashed at 22:30. Think it was right after switching to another CEC source on the TV. The "on saver" entries in the log look a bit suspicious.

Is there an update on the CEC issue yet? I still experience issues, primarily immediately after boot the CEC gets lost. But also when it does get recognized, after a few hours of inactivity, the CEC is lost again without being able to connect anymore. Only rebooting (a few times) solves the issue.

My log:

Thnx for your quick reaction, but how do I install? Can you give the commands for putty?

All updates will always eventually be available through apt.

Thnx, I'll be patient then ;-)

opdenkamp commented 9 years ago

So it looks like you're doing something that calls cec-client by default? If so, then you have to change it to use Kodi's json-rpc instead, or only do whatever you're doing before Kodi is started. Failing to do so will introduce new issues, and the bug that blocks things for 500 seconds is actually a good effect in this case, as it shows what is being tried here.

Even though this specific bug (seconds vs milliseconds) will be fixed soon, I'm going to introduce some new lock to prevent cec-client from accessing libCEC while Kodi is running, as indicated in the other ticket.

mk01 commented 9 years ago

@opdenkamp

actually problem of this I pinpointed to be BFS/BFQ patches for 3.19 kernel. it behaves quite like all the users said and most close was @mkreisl - although even this is just symptom of some bad in kernel spinlock or similar. I spent few days on that with @pop and Martin? his ex-co-worker with code access to PI firmware. same kernel same patches same libcec same firmware is fine on RPI2.

@jwamsterdam @CurlyMoo @nbarrientos the kernel without those two patches is at staging (rpi-wheezy), sources pushed to repo and config too.

@opdenkamp don't do any 'hard' blocking, we have imx6 cec driver with shared use - with each new libcec access it creates new device on the bus with separate LA, PA and manages inter client communication. the RPI adapter could be adapted for this too. It would need one change to rpi firmware to allow use of full uint16 as LA registering, not only 0x1-0xf (to allocate more LAs on RPI cec hw).

opdenkamp commented 9 years ago

@mk01 libCEC has no support for things like this, and you'll confuse a number of TVs out there by doing this (including it's users by creating stale device entries). If you want to do this, you'll have to solve the problem in userspace, by writing a daemon that uses libCEC and that applications connect to without allocating a new logical address.

Today I am faced with following after xbian-package-cec upgrade to xbian-package-cec 9.2.2.0-1-1433853654:

18:21:18 T:1960624128 ERROR: Unable to load libcec.so.2, reason: libXrandr.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory 18:21:18 T:1960624128 ERROR: Initialise - failed to initialise bus cec

It seems that it was built with libXrandr2 support so following package needs to be installed in order to get it working again:

apt-get install libxrandr2

Strange how it was not resolved via dependancy.

Duvian commented 9 years ago

er0l : after having installed the latest Xbian-image today on a B+ I was faced with the same problem. Your solution worked out of the box (Raspi connected to an LG 'Smart'-TV with Simplink (Pulse-Eight-CEC) turned ON)... THANK YOU ;-)

libidae commented 9 years ago

+1 for er0l's solution: Rpi2 with the latest Xbian, CEC worked fine until it crashed updating the library for the first time. Installed libxrandr2 through SSH and rebooted, CEC is fine again.

Thank you, I was about to give up on Xbian because this issue had already caused me to reload four times. Now I don't have to go back to an inferior media centre!

CurlyMoo commented 9 years ago

The latest CEC packages already installs libxrandr2 as a dependency.
