    Hi.
    Sorry for vague description, but I have strange problem with newer
    kernels.

    Debian sid box.
    inn2 on it. News are read with gnus, working on the same machine.
    With kernels 6.12 (and older) everything works ok.
    But with newer kernels (I noticed 6.18,7.0.4,7.0.10) after some time,
    when checking groups ("g") gnus hangs with message about "read 68k "

    Does anyone have similar problem?


    KJ

    When gnus hangs, can you use "C-g" to cancel the hanging operation? If
    so, you can get a backtrace of the hanging function for debugging: You
    can enable debug-on-quit by "M-x toggle-debug-on-quit", wait for the
    next hang, press "C-g", and you'll get a backtrace in another buffer to
    see what is the last function that is hanging. You can paste the content
    of that buffer here to help debugging.

    both "mail.kjonca" and "news.kjonca" are cnames for host with address 192.168.200.200 - local host interface (!=localhost)

    gnus-select-method (nntp "news.kjonca")

    gnus-secondary-select-methods ; local dovecot server
    ((nnimap "" (nnimap-address "mail") (nnimap-server-port 143)
    (nnimap-authenticator cram-md5) (nnimap-stream network)))


    "redacted" groups are groups with names changed, as they are kind of
    private.

    Total shot in the dark but since you're reporting that this issue is
    only present with newer kernels my first instinct here would be to try
    to recompile all bytecode with package-recompile-all and see if anything changes.

    It is not related to your problem but some services do not like names not ending with a correct tld. So you should use something like
    mail.kjonca.net instead of mail.kjonca.

    gnus-secondary-select-methods ; local dovecot server
    ((nnimap "" (nnimap-address "mail") (nnimap-server-port 143)
    (nnimap-authenticator cram-md5) (nnimap-stream network)))

    I see nothing about nnimap in your trace. Do you set (setq nnimap-debug t) ? Could you check your system logs and dovecot logs ? You could find some
    hints

    Again: why this worked with older kernels?

    I doubt that this is related (so I set debug for quit globally only), but I
    will try.

    I keep thinking it's probably something in the networking code. I'm
    reminded of TCP Window Scaling, which caused a bunch of problems when
    it was newly introduced. Devices which were not properly configured
    sometimes could not communicate properly with Linux systems that had
    TCP Window Scaling enabled. (This was not a bug in Linux. It was a
    common bug or misconfiguration in other systems.)

    What kind of device is 192.168.200.200? Is it running Linux, or something else?

    As I wrote both (inn2 and gnus) are on the same machine.

    This is local ethernet card eno.
    According to inxi -n
    sudo inxi -n

    Network:
    Device-1: Intel I211 Gigabit Network driver: igb
    IF: eno1 state: up speed: 100 Mbps duplex: full mac: b4:2e:99:f0:ae:57
    IF-ID-1: kvm0 state: up speed: 425 Mbps duplex: unknown mac: b2:65:96:a1:3f:61

    (kvm0 is card from my kvm, normally not used)

    Yes it could also be a security patch enforcing a new control which
    fails. It could be apparmor denying access, etc. This is why I suggest to
    look in the system logs. Looking in inn2 logs and dovecot logs could be
    useful too.

    But, as I said: this happens after some time. When I have fresh
    connection gnus-> inn2 it works.

    Until you find why it happens you have to check your logs. You do this
    with gnus but not with system and inn2 and dovecot logs.

    Well. I will stick with kernel 6.12.x for now. And I hope, that this
    kernel issue (because only the only difference is kernel) will hit
    someone else more deterministic way. :(
