PC shutdown and disk mounting issues.

d3vl4k5hy4 · Yesterday 06:48:35

I have two problems which I think are closely related.
1) My projects are stored in another disk which i mount to /mnt/Projects to access them.
Now sometimes, randomly, while modifying some specific file, whether it be deleting or updating, the program modifying just gets stuck.
If i save it using the text editor, it gets stuck on the saving file dialog. Same thing happens while deleting, whether it be from a code editor, rm command or the file manager.
I have to force unmount the disk with umount -l and restart the computer, which later results in the file being corrupted.
The filesystem of that disk is ntfs.

Now the second problem,
Sometimes while shutting down, my computer gets stuck on some screen with text, which seem to be some kind of terminal.
Whenever it occurs, the pc shutdowns after a few minutes while outputting things like: waiting for process to exit or smth.
Usually I see this text at the cursor when this happens: "Connection to X server lost" or "GLIB Critical process ID 3 not found".

Now, the second problem occurs VERY VERY frequently when i have my disks mounted, and the problem one occurs.
And sometime all i need is to have my disks mounted, and the problem 2 will occur whether or not the 1st problem occurs.
What do I do?

* Is that an internal or external disk?
For the latter try to disable https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Power_ … utosuspend - "usbcore.autosuspend=-1"
nb. that userspace powermanagement services like TLP can and will override this at runtime and you'll have to change the configuration there (as well)

* Is there a parallel windows installation?
3rd link below. Mandatory.
Disable it (it's NOT the BIOS setting!) and reboot windows and linux twice for voodo reasons.

The article says ntfs-3g has a safeguard which prevents read-write mounting of hibernated fs. And I am not even mounting my windows drive. Is there any explanation for that?

Edit (Additional):
The Disk is a internal nvme ssd. Yes there's a parallel windows installation and I have just disabled fast-start with "powercfg /H off" as stated in the article.
Am I missing something? Because this happened again and one of my files stopped existing after I forced shutdown after it being stuck on the console after i clicked shutdown.
I used journalctl to see the log and it was stating that it was unmounting the filesystem, then after a min or so the umount timed out and that was the last log.

And are you using ntfs-3g?
Either way, the ramifications of fast-start go way beyond this, disabling it is entirely not optional.

I used journalctl to see the log and it was stating that it was unmounting the filesystem, then after a min or so the umount timed out and that was the last log.

Post the journal.

As for nvme's a common issue is APST, https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Solid_ … leshooting

Had happened when I stopped working on my project, closed vscodium and shutted down.
The file I had created and wrote in was gone.

Please don't copy and paste out of a pager (notice the stale newlines in your journal)
You're using ntfs3, not ntfs-3g (yes, it's confusing) and

need to check

sudo smartctl -a /dev/sda

Troublesome mount seems

This might also just be a bug in ntfs3 (don't ignore the bad blocks on sda, though!) so you could still test ntfs-3g

how did I not see seth reply until now, more than half hour of delay. (ah cause I didn't refresh the page)

to not waste it all:
why there are many unmet conditions, are they relevant? I'll research the meaning of that.
read/writing errors "devmachine kernel: RIP: 0010:iomap_write_end+0x1c8/0x1e0" , file system is corrupted "Volume contains 2 bad blocks in 2 fragments."

and something hibernation related, maybe the hibernation would lead to corrupted file system

@aminepro, pPlease use [code][/code] tags, not "quote" tags. Edit your post in this regard.

drm and fuse are already loaded, measured-os isn't supported, the root partition early on not writable and no hibernation image present

Happened yesterday again. this is the log: https://pastebin.com/VC6q9xvB
Will send other logs u asked with smartctl thing later.

@seth I think the problem is mostly related to what drive is being written to. I use a script to mount and dismount all of my additional drives.
It is:
```
mount /dev/nvme0n1p3 /mnt/Windows
mount /dev/sda1 /mnt/Data1
mount /dev/nvme0n1p5 /mnt/Projects
mount /dev/sdb1 /mnt/Games
```

And the drives other than Projects werent written to. This has happened before with the games drive when I was installing with Steam, it showed some disk read/write errors in steam and I couldnt shutdown that time either.
I fixed it with using chkdsk in windows tho. It seems it only happens when the drive have been written to sometime during the boot.

Here's the smartctl thing:

What I am I supposed to do now?

You're using ntfs3, not ntfs-3g

What does that mean?

Cross-talk…

That's not the output of "mount"
Iff the troublesome partition is (always) nvme0n1p5 and iff windows fast-start (still) is disabled resp. you rebooted both OS after disabling it (that's not meant as a joke) and ifff those errors remain w/ ntfs-3g see the linked nvme troubleshooting, disable APST and in doubt use the software IOMMU.

But I have ntfs-3g installed tho.

Unless you also tell mount to use it, that's irrelevant.
Also see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Udisks … ed_drivers (GUI tools will typically use udisks)

Keep a very close eye on those numbers and also

5 Reallocated_Sector_Ct   0x0033   100   100   010    Pre-fail  Always       -       0

and make sure those don't move resp. prepare for the disk to die.

Eg. this line break isn't supposed to be there

You can upload the journal directly using

sudo journalctl -b | curl -s -H "Accept: application/json, */*" --upload-file - 'https://paste.c-net.org/'

Its not always nvme0n1, had happened with sdb1 itself, and i think it didnt happen after i did chkdsk.
Imma use ntfs-3g as `ntfs-3g /dev/nvem0n1pX /mnt/xyz`, Is this the correct way to mount with ntfs-3g? And I'll disable APST whatever that is and check if it works. Thanks tho.

Additional stuff:
Whenever the shutdown stuck thingy happens, my ps shuts down after like 5-10 mins after outputting some stuff.
Like doing this doing that, waiting from this process or that process.
And IIRC has happened even when I did not mount anything. Is there anything else that could be causing this, @seth?
Thanks tho,

EDIT:
Also is it okay to unmount after mounting with ntfs-3g command?

Depending on what your actual processes/services are doing and for what reason they might remain active on any given device this can happen regardless of the FS. Best would be to get the journal of a boot where you had the unmounting failure and stuck processes with e.g.

sudo journalctl -b-1 | curl -s -H "Accept: application/json, */*" --upload-file - 'https://paste.c-net.org/'

for the boot prior to your current one and so forth. umount should be fine after having done the mount with ntfs-3g directly. once it's clear which driver takes care of the mount, umount will do the relevant unmounting sequence of whatever driver is registered as the holder of a particular mount.

While you definitely should be weary of the general disk health state as given by the smartctl output, if you only disabled fast-start now and had potential FS corruption on the disk in question it might be a good idea to run a chkdsk on said disk from Windows, to make sure the filesystem is in a generally consistent state. While ntfs-3g has a bit more leeway in which kind of errors it "accepts" if your disk is in such a state that the FS integrity isn't guaranteed you should run a chkdsk on the disk in question from Windows.

The failure to umount on shutdown is one thing, the intermittent OOPS (#6) is a different beast that cannot be explained by "process refuses to die so filesystem fails to umount"
