Two errors regarding storage

bebop · August 4, 2019, 11:17pm

Hello, I am getting two errors that seem related to Freedombox storage. When inspecting storage via Cockpit, the boot and root partitions on the SD Card are less than half full.

I am on Debian GNU/Linux 10 (buster) version 19.2.
I’m using the Olimex kit, purchased May 2019.
The OS is flashed to a 64GB SD Card and I’m also using a 128GB USB drive for Syncthing.

Here’s what I’m seeing:

1.) Error getting information about root partition: Mount point / not found. This is reported by /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/plinth/modules/storage/views.py

2.) Error opening directory “/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/udisks2/modules”: No such file or directory. On this error, I checked and indeed there is no udisks2 directory in /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/.

Is my system not configured properly? Maybe my storage devices are faulty? Any ideas on what’s going on with these?

Here is the copy/paste of the errors from the logs:

1.)

Thanks for reporting your issue. Though I can’t comment on the error logs you posted, I believe that your issue is related to an existing thread about removable storage. We’ve been dealing with an issue with removable storage for a few months now, and our team is still working on a solution.

Related thread:

Hope this helps.

Thanks for your response and letting me know it’s related to a current issue.

For what it’s worth, my (exFat-formatted) usb flash drive shows up fine in Cockpit and it is working well with syncthing. The root directory mentioned in error 1.) is of course on the SD Card rather than the USB drive.

Perhaps I’ll try unmounting and removing my USB drive to see if both errors cease…

Sunil · August 7, 2019, 1:28am

Thanks for a detailed and very helpful report.

FreedomBox tried obtain information from udisks2 to show a warning about remaining disk space in case it is low. The information return from udisks didn’t contain a partition with ‘/’ as the mount point. I don’t know a situation in which this can happen. This is probably and error that is the result of log number 2 above (the two event seem to have occurred more than 1 hour part though). Could you provide the output of udisksctl dump? (Please remove any UUIDs from the output as the could prove privacy sensitive).

The second error should not have occurred at all. The directory does not typically exist until any of udisks2 modules are installed (provided by udisks2-* packages). Checked on two different machines.

user@freedombox:~$ ls /usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/udisks2
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/udisks2': No such file or directory

root@mybox:/usr/lib# ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/udisks2
ls: cannot access '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/udisks2': No such file or directory

After installing udisks2-btrfs:

root@mybox:/usr/lib# ls /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/udisks2/modules/libudisks2_btrfs.so 
/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/udisks2/modules/libudisks2_btrfs.so

Thanks for your help!

Everything looks okay to me in this output. Specifically, there is a object whos “IdUsage: filesystem” and “MountsPoints: /”. So, I am staring to wonder if that was a one-time error due to an incomplete state of udisks2 (perhaps after immediately starting).

Does the error shown in the log occur everytime you visit the system or storage page?
Did you see that error multiple times?
If you visit the storage app, does that result in this error?

bebop · August 8, 2019, 2:19am

Sunil, with regards to your questions:

There are no additional errors reported when I hit the system or storage pages in Cockpit.
The error does keep occuring.
I do get the error for “Mount point / not found” when I open the Storage app.

Here’s a partial log. The last 3 errors came up when I visited the Storage app. I don’t open this app, ordinarily, so the prior instances must come from something else.

@bebop, this almost certainly looks like a bug in FreedomBox’s usage of UDisks2 API given the previous output of udisksctl and this error. We can investigate and fix this. Could you run the following script on your machine and post the results? (Sorry to drag you into a debug session )

#!/usr/bin/python3

import importlib

try:
    import gi as package
    package_name = 'gi'
except ImportError:
    import pgi as package
    package_name = 'pgi'

package.require_version('UDisks', '2.0')

udisks = importlib.import_module(package_name + '.repository.UDisks')

client = udisks.Client.new_sync()
object_manager = client.get_object_manager()
devices = []

for obj in object_manager.get_objects():

    if not obj.get_block():
        continue

    block = obj.get_block()

    if block.props.id_usage != 'filesystem':
        continue

    device = {
        'device': block.props.device,
        'label': block.props.id_label,
        'size': block.props.size,
        'filesystem_type': block.props.id_type,
        'is_removable': not block.props.hint_system
    }
    try:
        device['mount_point'] = obj.get_filesystem().props.mount_points[0]
    except Exception:
        continue

    print(device)

Save the above into a file like test.py and run the command python3 test.py.

Sunil, thanks for looking into this. Here’s the output as requested.

In case it might be useful, I’m also including my /etc/fsab file. I added the line for /dev/sda2 (perhaps incorrectly?) and the others lines were generated by the system.
