kernel log when CPU usage has increased significantly without apparent cause

openSUSE v12.3
  linux v3.7.10-1.1-desktop x86_64
  gnome 3.6.2
  nouveau video driver
  nVidia gt470 graphics adapter
  AMD Athlon II X4 630 Processor

I filed this bug in the Gnome Bugzilla system
<https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=699285>. After a long delay,
they
suggested filing it here. So here it is.

I have attached a kernel log from today.

Commentary from the Gnome report:

Ever since gnome version 3.2 the mouse movement becomes more uneven as the
logon time increases. Initially the movement is smooth and even as expected. As
the session time increases the movement shows regular pauses (every 1 - 2
seconds) for some fraction of a second, then "catches up" to where it
would
have been had it not paused. As the session time increases, so does the
jerkiness, i.e., the pauses increase in length.

This is annoying. It is exaggerated in a VirtualBox VM, guest type os/2, where
tje issue is quite pronounced. Given enough time, though, even native apps show
the jerkiness.

It is related somehow to the build up of CPU usage. Initially the idle time
usage is about 4% with a browser, email agent and a VM. As time goes by the
idle usage increases to about 15% where the mouse action is so uneven that it
is no longer tolerable.

The problem has worsened with later versions since 3.2; the jerkiness increases
after only several hours rather than days. It has gotten so bad that I have
gone to KDE where there is no such issue.

It occurs for two different mice, a wired unit and a wireless one. I
am currently using a Logitech MX300 mouse. Dis-/re-connecting the mice made no
difference.

The only solution so far is to log out and in again, or more recently, use KDE.

Other systems here do not have this problem. The primary difference is that
this system has a nVidia graphics adapter; all the other systems have ATI
adapters of some sort.


See the "top" results below. Note that gnome-shell starts at about 7%
CPU
usage, 11 hours later it has risen to 18%. I really prefer Gnome over KDE. It
is sad that this issue has made it unusable.

Here a section of "top" when Gnome first starts after login.

[Nouveau] [Bug 69827] Uneven, jerky mouse movement, increasing CPU usage

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69827

--- Comment #1 from Ilia Mirkin <imirkin at alum.mit.edu> ---
Does this still happen with the latest software, i.e. kernel 3.10, mesa 9.2,
xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.9? (Kernel 3.11+ apparently has some issues for some
NVC1 users, although feel free to try it.)

Also, does this happen on an untainted kernel? (i.e. without virtualbox modules
ever being loaded).

Lastly, you can use 'perf' (in tools/perf in the linux-kernel sources)
to tell
where cpu time is going. Running perf record -g -p $gnome_shell_pid; perf
report may be instructive.

Perhaps I was unclear. The implication was "update your system to these
packages and see if it still happens".

To be clear, loading the virtualbox modules taints the kernel.

Yes there is, if you build it. I'm sure there are plenty of wikis about it
on
the internet if you have trouble getting it to work.

linux 3.11.10-7-desktop x86_64
gnome 3.10.2
Gallium 0.4 on NVC1

This issue has surfaced again in a slightly different form recently, within the
last two weeks.

The mouse data stream is interrupted and restarted at random intervals, in
generally less than a minute. By "interrupted" I mean that the current
mouse
state is cleared; if button1 is down, it appears no longer down. And
"restarted" means that the mouse state is restored immediately after
it is
interrupted but it appears as a new state: button1 is now down.

It makes button1 click-drag a chancy process as the stream is sometimes
interrupted/restarted quickly enough that it appears as a double-click followed
by click-drag.

Still using a kernel "tainted" by VirtualBox.

This new aspect has no obvious affect on CPU usage.

As always, step 1 is "try the latest". That means kernel 3.14.x, mesa
10.1. I'm
specifically thinking about commit 7d3428cd4b2ad51af86fdbdf8284ca38fa95e601 in
the kernel, which fixed some lag issues for a compton user.

nVidia geforce gt 730

It's baaaack.

The mouse movement is not jerky like the original report.

The CPU usage increases quite quickly this time around. The usage value (from
TOP) starts at about 2 - 3% for gnome-session, increases to about 15% in 24
hours. I have installed opensuse 13.2 on two other computers that have ATI
graphics adapters; they do not exhibit this issue.

If I do not boot every morning, the desktop is likely to freeze by the third
day of uptime.

Try the latest software and see if this happens there:

Kernel:stable for a 3.18 kernel
X11:XOrg for the X Stack + Mesa

Report back anyway...

nvidia GF108 [GeForce GT 730]
gnome 3.14.5
xf86-video-nouveau 1.0.11

The increasing CPU usage is still an issue. Apparently I am the only person to
have this problem. :-(

I have been using Xfce; I switched back to Gnome for a while because I prefer
it. It was disappointing that this has not been resolved.

It seems to be a nvidia-related (or nouveau?) problem. None of the other linux
systems exhibit the CPU usage; the other computers have ATI (built-in or addon)
video controllers.

openSUSE Leap 42.1

Gnome 3.16.2
nouveau 2.4.65
nvidia gt 730

This issue has not been affected by any updates in the last two years. I just
updated to updated openSUSE Leap 42.1 which has fairly recent versions of
Gnome, etc.

I am deeply disappointed that Gnome's CPU usage proceeded to climb from its
initial usage of about 2% to 5% 12 hours later. It follows an identical pattern
as originally reported.

[Nouveau] [Bug 69827] [NVC1] Uneven, jerky mouse movement, increasing CPU usage

https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=69827

--- Comment #14 from Ilia Mirkin <imirkin at alum.mit.edu> ---
(In reply to James Moe from comment #13)> How do I use perf to monitor Gnome's CPU usage?
Well, presumably it's not "gnome" using CPU, it's some
specific process. So
then you just do

perf record -g -p pid

I've never used 'perf top' although it could perhaps be useful here.
You could
identify the process with 'top'.

Using TOP the most likely suspect is "gnome-shell". How long should I
collect
data to get a good profile of its usage?

I dunno... a minute or two should be fine. I'm assuming that it's
consistently
using 5-10% cpu?

Unfortunately I can't decode that. It relies on the exact symbols on your
machine... could you also run "perf report" and see if anything
interesting
pops up? Note that the first column with percents tells you how much time is
spent in that function and all its descendents, while the second percentage
tells you how much time is spent in *just* that function (but not the functions
it calls).

perf data after Gnome had been running about 18 hours

perf data of gnome-shell after 18 hours of uptime. TOP shows that gnome-shell
had increased its average CPU usage by a factor of three, from 2.5% to 7%.

Great... that points to something in nouveau. But you need debug symbols to
make it useful.

Please get debug symbols, and then open up that top 38% node and see what's
inside :)

No, although someone else came in the other day to #nouveau complaining about
high CPU usage when there's tons of output on an xterm. I've seen that
behavior
myself although I haven't investigated it.
