Stacktrace from enabling msm-dcvs

Here's the relevant stack trace from the kernel panic when enabling the msm-dcvs governor.

[ 2811.452880] MSM_DCVS: msm_dcvs_freq_sink_start: msm_dcvs_freq_sink_start invalid dcvs_core_id = 0 returning -EINVAL
[ 2811.462585] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 2811.466979] kernel BUG at /opt/jenkins/android/workspace/android/jellybean/kernel/samsung/jf/drivers/cpufreq/cpufreq_gov_msm.c:206!
[ 2811.478790] Internal error: Oops - BUG: 0 [#1] PREEMPT SMP ARM
[ 2811.484557] Modules linked in: dhd vpnclient
[ 2811.488799] CPU: 0 Not tainted (3.4.0-cyanogenmod-gfbaa5c7 #1)

I've done a little cursory exploring and noticed that the CPU_OFFSET parameter starts at 1 on this kernel module, but it is being told to enable this governor on core 0, hence the message above. Not sure at the moment if it's the module's fault, or just some misconfiguration from settings activity when enabling this module.

I plan to look into this in a bit more depth sometime in the next few weeks(hopefully).

Follow up to stepheno's message

Hi, stephenopdx and I are working together on this issue in our free time. As a follow up, we've found that the call to msm_dcvs_scm_init is returning a non-zero value (specifically 4). This function is calling the command DCVD_CMD_INIT (command ID 5) in the SCM_SVC_DCVS service. The continues down to an ARM instruction call to move the processor into "secure mode" (aka TrustZone). I'd like to emphasize at this point that both stephenopdx are complete noobs when it comes to kernel development.

We are wondering:

1) Why, if the scm_call to DCVS_CMD_INIT fails, does the kernel continue on its merry way?

2) What does that return code of 4 mean?

3) What preconditions are necessary to initialize DCVS?

4) Is there a place where we can find reference materials (things like return codes and their meanings) for the Qualcomm MSM 8960 SoC? Googling for return code 4 was fairly futile.

5) Is there some sort of kernel debugger so that we can stop using terrible pr_err messages?

We can also produce stack traces or kernel panic logs (heavily augmented with demented pr_err messages to help us figure out what's going on) if anyone is interested.

Thanks!

Putting it in dowload mode is a little tricky. After drivers installed and software installed on PC, make sure phone is off! Had to hold volume key down at same time as power button and connect usb that is connected to computer. When phone boots to LG let go of power button only. Something like that.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
When I try go through the command prompt and it says its finished, nothing happens. The command window goes away. What do I do?

I thought a softbrick was a bootloop but able to go into download and recovery...etc
[Sprint LG Optimus G] sharkboy0901:
Yes that is correct, soft bricked means bootloop, etc but brick or hard brick means won't turn on at all. Just trying to be informative lol :)
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
Lol thanks
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
are you using LGNPST to flash teenybin in download mode? if not got to teenybin thread scroll to bottom of additional info and click on click to show content box. this will give directions to download and set up LGNPST. Its been a while but I believe this is how I recovered.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] _dannyboy:
I cant get passed thw lgnpst set up. When I performed the install prompt from the 'install.bat' file, it goes through the driver set up and stuff, it tells me to press any button the continue because its finished, yet nothing happened....
[Sprint LG Optimus G] Bdadd34:
If I remember right I also had trouble with the bat file but I think you can manually move the files you need as the bat file just loads the DLL files. Wish I remembered more but its been a month or 2 since I did it. Also my laptop went down that has all the files I used. It will work if you keep at it..I got my old laptop to work with another charger so I'll try to find the files you need tonight when I get home from work.
[Sprint LG Optimus G] oneders65:
Also if you have to move the ddl files make sure you use the command prompt and certify them.

I've never had that problem with my P5113, but what you describe sounds like a problem that I had with an HP TouchPad. It was a defective touch screen. Given your device is new, I suspect "infant mortality."

Hi,

We make Contactive(it's an app)(just to make sure we're on the same page here). It's guaranteed to (insert sips ref here) rustle your jimmies.

We've received some great feedback lately and we're hungry like a wolf for moar. That's where you come in:fingers-crossed:. Fill our suggestion box full of stuff. Types of feedback that we like to munch on:

- all positive comments

- A bunch of five stars pls

- words that want to make us cry

- And I'm legally binded to ask for some constructive criticism. Not too much though. Our dev's get angry pretty easily(please do not tweet to contactive that i said that).

Also too our lead dev is single(lololololol) he like's to go on very brief walks on the beach, he gets tired very easily, and his fave movie is the about the ring.

I guess I should say something about the app now. Um, well it makes your phone ring, or vibrate, when you get a call. It tells you if a celebrity is calling you like Dr. Dre or if its your mailman, or if its just your mum.

But wait there's more:highfive:, if your mom's on twitter, and let's face it there's like a 99% chance she is, it will show you her latest tweet before you pick up her call... you'll be prepared. Also too it'll import all of your friends from Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin(if you have a job), and Gmail to your phone's address book. It identifies unknown callers too by crawling over the inter-webs for all public information connected to that number(ie. location, name,a picture if available, and some other stuff I cant remember.

I'm not trying to discredit your app but what does it bring that the others don't have ? I tried it works exactly like https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.callapp.contacts that is my main contacts app
[Testing] blabbersoft:
Giving it a try; seems like a useful application, but I am a little concerned about the massive consolidation of personal information. The privacy policy is a good read!
[Testing] hanifbsk:
Can you add a feature to remove duplicate numbers in phone contacts

This is good:good:, but feel they have two or more contacts:confused:,

numbers on the phone does not directly connect to facebook
[Testing] hisname:
what do you mean by duplicate numbers?
[Testing] hanifbsk:
I have a lot of duplicate numbers in the phone

eg for my number, there are 4 same name in the phonebook,

and it automatically removes it,

and hope this app can change the google phonebook, not only the number on the application

thanks! our in-house front-end guy plus designer made it.

We've had a few requests for theme customization. right now, we're busy with bug fixes and core features, but we're hoping to get to a place where we can work on themes. We know the blue is super bright, and some people like it, some people don't.

Yeah. CallApp is our main competitor - and right now we do pretty much the same thing. But we're tryna eventually leapfrog them. :D

Not sure what's happening there but Contactive SHOULD be taking care of your duplicate numbers. There's also an option to manually merge/link profiles when you go into an individual profile and hit settings. Could you shoot us an email at support@contactive.com?

PS. Thank you to [MENTION=2507098]TheRomMistress[/MENTION] for the article!
[Testing] rubin110:
I'm trying to wrap my brain around how your app works and where the line in privacy is.

Without actually installing your app, my theory is...

* Your app takes a snapshot of my address book and pushes that to a 3rd party service

* This service builds up a database of numbers, names, and useful information to find people on social networking sites

* Some of this information is pushed back down to the user for their particular contact

* Once a call comes in, if the user already exists the app should know which accounts on what social networks the pole for the callers most recent postings

* If the caller doesn't exist in the address book, a quick ping off to the 3rd party service is made to request any known information on this new caller's phone number, and that's pushed back down to the user and relevant content is shown

Is all that approximately correct or do I have it all backwards? Thanks!
[Testing] JattMonson:
I'm really liking the layout of this app. Good work! Could you guys incorporate a way to turn of the dialer sound?
[Testing] gaquarian:
Iam totally agree with RUBIN110..Big concern is privacy .I'm not trying to discredit your app but App from Newyork ..,,,Whats About NSA?..Whats about U.S. and British government mass surveillance programs?
[Testing] imtoomuch:
I really like the look of the app and I want to use it, but I'm concerned about the privacy aspects.

Do you collect the data and use or store it outside of this app?
[Testing] contactive_dave:
As the lowly intern, this is my understanding of how it works - from both asking a bunch of questions and sitting next to the dev guys everyday listening to what they talk about:

You got it mostly correct.

1. yes. The app saves your address book in Contactive's database and stores links (not info) to matching social network profiles. This info is NOT shared with 3rd party services.

2. yes. The service builds up a database of the following: name, number, social network IDs

3. yes. The info you see for a particular contact all depends on what info you can see if you were to visit that user's Facebook page. For example, if you are friends with Alex, all of the info you can normally see on Alex's Facebook will show up within Contactive. If you are NOT friends with Alex, only the info Alex has made public will be seen within Contactive.

4. yes - IF 1. you are friends with them already on the social networks you connect to Contactive, and/or 2. Contactive's database has connected that number to a specific social network account.

5. yes. If the caller doesnt exist in your address book, requests are sent to Contactive's database and third parties such as yelp, facebook, etc - all the different sources we use.

We're pretty sure if the NSA wanted any of the info we have, they can get it off of Facebook. LOL

Nope. We don't use or store it for anything other than to bolster our caller ID feature. We won't sell any of our information either.
[Testing] peedub:
Are you able to add an option to silence the key press tone?
[Testing] contactive_dave:
youre actually the second person today to ask about that. I'll bring it up to the dev team and report back.
[Testing] mikew29:
Looks cool. Any plans for a dark theme and integrating call block( damn telemarketers)
[Testing] peedub:
Another great addition would be an option to prioritise which service to get the contact picture from.

Most of my contacts update their Facebook photo more regularly than Twitter or Linkedin.
[Testing] xgustavoacex:
It looks really cool, and I'm enjoying your app.

The only thing that i didnt like atm is the low res of contact photos.
[Testing] laur3n.newm4n:
Tried it out, noticed a few things.

1. Low resolution contact photos are pulled from my Google contacts - even though the ones I have uploaded are high res. The only high res Contactive pulls correctly are Facebook. Some of my contacts don't have social network accounts, so I need the Google photo to come in as high res.

2. If I delete the automatic lists Contactive creates, it puts them right back later on. I've deleted them twice now, and they keep coming back. Some of my social network friends that aren't in my contacts show up in those lists, and I don't want them to.

3. Linking a contact to a social media account doesn't always stick. I'll link them initially, and go back into Link/Unlink, and the accounts no longer show as linked.

4. It only shows either Facebook or Twitter updates from my contacts in their contact card. I can't see both their social account's most recent update, even if I know they've updated both recently.

5. I don't like that it always has a reminder to link my LinkedIn account at the bottom of every contact. I don't want to see that.

That's what I have from using it for half an hour. Unfortunately, those quirks means I've uninstalled it.
[Testing] Lasantha:
Can this sync phone numbers from FB same way HTC sense does?
[Testing] el_bhm:
Any way to support bugs other than email or posting it here?

There are some serious issues with this app. Like, what looks like, network call run on the UI thread, in one of the setup screens.

Plus, more importantly, servers cannot handle the load apparently.
[Testing] contactive_dave:
Yup - after the XDA article got posted, we got a huge spike in downloads in the US. And then it got picked up by an Italian blog, and resulted in another jump in downloads. We're hitting all our API limits! So we're looking for workarounds. Apologies all around - it's pretty crazy for us right now.

But for the support and bugs - support@contactive.com would be great!
[Testing] el_bhm:
Well, that is lesson learned for you guys. But I seriously think XDA should contact developers before featuring the app on the website, if the app uses some server features. People that trot around these forums should be more understanding about the issue, but not being able to log in or register will seriously hit your ratings.

App looks about great. Haven't had a chance to use it though. It does though something that was knocking about in my head for quite some time.

Will write down issues when I get around my own hiatus.
[Testing] Snowflake6:
Bummer. Uninstalling now, I haven't even started the app so I hope it hasn't raped my contacts list. Write an app that can do all of this linking locally on my phone instead of taking my personal info away to your server, and I'll try it.
[Testing] cramu:
How can I delete my account?

Since I have installed this app, I receive lots of spam mails and calls from call centers in Turkey?
[Testing] contactive_dave:
Woah. I am sure that has nothing to do with Contactive. :eek:

But send us an email to support@contactive.com with the email address you signed up with, and we can delete your account. Right now, we can only do it from the backend, but we're working on allowing it to be done by the users themselves.
[Testing] ev!denz:
That's a big deal for me. If the data is stored on a server there is no way to get me use this app.

The thing with the NSA: Facebook does not know as much as I have stored locally on my phone. But if I connect it with my Facebook contacts via your app there are so much more connections between my friends and Facebook. That's not what I want for them.

But your idea is great. It's what I'm looking for for a long time but the thing with server storage kills it for me.
[Testing] Magissia:
From the playstore's screenshots, it looks very very nice, but some devices are set as incompatible because they don't have a sim slot by default, means if i use a usb one, i won't be able to make any benefits from using your app because the playstore won't let me use it :P

Any other download location ? Maybe amazon's app store ?

Regards
[Testing] fishwy:
I agree with you.
[Testing] sentidodroid:
Looks great!!
[Testing] StealthNet:
It seems to be a pretty good idea but if I understood your t&cs and privacy statements, you guys upload my contacts list, calls list and social networks (not sure what exactly is uploaded) and may share it with third parties for advertising purposes, a big nope-nope-nope-nope-nope-nope for me.

Whould you guys please confirm that? I would like to know exactly what kind of info you guys upload, use and share. Thank you.

yes...you can use the same method to root the boost mobile sgs3 as the sprint version or you can use this link to flash sprint's md4 stock rom and then flash any sprint sgs3 rom that you like. note DO NOT FLASH ANY INTERNATIONAL ROMS ON YOUR PHONE CAUSE YOU'LL BRICK THE HECK OUT OF IT AND IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO FIX IT......sorry i can not post any link do to that I'm new posting on xda but you cand search for the stock rotted md4 rom and that should be the best way to root your boost galaxy s3.

Hey everyone,

Ive been running strong here on slimbean for a while now. And while its great I want some of the functionality features from the stock rom. Maybe its a android version thing, anyways what Im wanting to go back to is how under the contacts list, you swipe a contact name one way for text messaging and swipe the other way to call the person...even under the text message listing I think you could simply swipe the contact name and call the person. If you know what Im talking about, is this functionality available on a custom rom available? Im going to feel silly going back to stock just for that. Maybe im slow but I do it at least a couple times a week, ill browse through contacts click on who i want to call and put the phone to my ear, never calling the person b/c you have to click 'call' after selecting your contact. Hope im not sounding whiney, all you guys do things i couldnt.

thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy Exhibit 4G] Dvarl:
That feature is only found in the stock rom. You could check the play store to see if there is an app that will do the same thing, but that is all I can suggest.

I´d like to make this a DIY thread, lets put the things we´ve done to spend a little less in accesories, and for sure someone else will make what you did to :D LETS HELP US ONE ANOTHER!

So guys I wanted to show you how I made my car mount, it´s a little diffucult but well worth it, I used:

1.- Nokia car mount

2.- USB cable

3.- Car lighter usb charger

4.- Aux cable

5.- A lot of tools lol

Guys I know it looks complicated but once you get the hold of it I promise it´s worth it, I reccomend searching for videos on how to open your cars stereo, I had to watch it about 15 times ;) before even dareing to try, when it opened it, I pushed the Aux cable inside and made a hole on the tray passed it through, the USB charger was the same method, close it and you´re done! Im still looking on how to trigger the DOCK function but until now I´m very happy with it,
