RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Milhouse - 2018-11-07 (2018-11-06, 22:44)jmerrilljr Wrote: Here is the dmesg | pasteinit: http://ix.io/1raX. #1016 plays fine. #1016x does not. Can you test TCP with iperf rather than UDP? This doesn't look good:
No idea what is causing that at the moment. Unfortunately the log spam has resulted in the log buffer being truncated. Can you add log_buf_len=16M to your kernel command line, then boot with #1022 (4.18.14, no problems) and run dmesg | pastebinit , then upgrade to #1106 (4.19.1, kernel errors) and again run dmesg | pastebinit , pasting both links here - hopefully this time we'll have complete kernel logs for both a working and non-working kernel. I'll then be able to do some digging. It looks like 4.19 introduced quite a number of r8169-related bugs.
RE: LibreELEC Testbuilds for x86_64 (Kodi 18.0) - Milhouse - 2018-11-07 @jmerrilljr once more thing that might help: if you can test all of the 4.19-rc test builds (there were 8, rc1-rc8) it might help narrow down the range that includes the breaking commit. You can find links to the 4.19-rc test builds in PR2937. Start with 4.19-rc1 and if that doesn't have the problem then test the next release ie. 4.19-rc2. Post which release of 4.19-rc is the first with the problem. Thanks. Also, can you describe what your PC is connected to - what type of cable (CAT5, CAT5e etc.), what type of switch (make/model/brand).

Other than that I am pretty much lost and overwhelmed. I will try the quoted 4.19 -rc test builds.

Also iperf can't connect to libreelec via TCP. I must be doing something wrong. Thanks for all your help. TCP should be the default for iperf - you're telling it to test UDP by using the -u option. You're also limiting the bandwidth to 100Mb (which you'll probably never see with UDP even without kernel issues).I'd suggest using the following iperf options on the client:
On the server, you only need:
To access your kernel command line, you need to edit /flash/syslinux.cfg. To make the /flash partition writeable, you first need to run mount -o remount,rw /flash .You can use vi or nano to edit /flash/syslinux.cfg .Make a backup of your current file with:
The kernel command line is the line that begins with APPEND so if your current file looks like:
then you need to change /flash/sylinux.cfg to be:
Obviously, if you get this wrong and corrupt the contents of this file you may have a non-booting system which you can recover using LibreELEC booted from a memory stick (you'll need to boot into live live mode, enable ssh, login with ssh and your internal HDD/SSD will be available via the /media path - restore syslinux.cfg from your syslinux.cfg.bak backup) then reboot from HDD/SSD.Only make this change if you are confident about making the change.
