May 18 10:08:11 Eliot thermald[1012]: failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel May 18 10:08:11 Eliot thermald[1012]: failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel May 18 10:08:11 Eliot thermald[1012]: TRT/ART read failed
These messages above occur because the device entries do not exist on your system, so they are just informing you that the ACPI TRT (Thermal Relationship Table) and ART (Active Relationship Table) cannot be read (probably because the corresponding ACPI _TRT and _ART objects do not exist on your machine). I believe these errors should occur just once during the lifetime of thermald and are just informing you that the capabilities do not exist. May 18 10:08:12 Eliot thermald[1012]: sysfs read failed constraint_0_max_power_uw The above error shows that the Maximum Power RAPL (Running Average Power Limit) interface in /sys/class/powercap/intel-rapl cannot be read, however since the failure does not occur on the constraint_1_max_power_uw then the RAPL max power reading has probably worked, so there is no need to worry about that message. May 18 10:08:12 Eliot thermald[1012]: sysfs write failed trip_point_0_temp May 18 10:08:12 Eliot thermald[1012]: sysfs write failed trip_point_0_temp The above is of interest because the thermal zone trip point temperature setting can't be updated, I guess this message is going to be repeated many times. >From your bug it is hard to determine if the messages are being repeated many times or not. Can you run thermald for say 1hr and attach the full log so we can see what messages are spamming the log. ** Changed in: thermald (Ubuntu) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: thermald (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: thermald (Ubuntu) Assignee: (unassigned) => Colin Ian King (colin-king) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1582982 Title: thermald 1.5-2ubuntu1 failures in ubuntu16.04 To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thermald/+bug/1582982/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
