Long boot times on tumbleweed

English Install/Boot/Login
1

Greetings everyone!
A few months ago I switched back from Windows to openSUSE Tumbleweed with KDE Plamsa on my laptop (Ryzen 5 4800H, Nvidia RTX 2060, 16 GB RAM, system installed on an nvme SSD with btrfs and zswap enabled).
Everything has been working nicely but for one thing: boot times are extremely slow. I’m not talking about a few seconds difference, but 1 min+! For reference, on Windows (with fast boot disabled) it took around 7-8 seconds to boot, here my last boot was 1 min 10 sec.

systemd-analyze  
Startup finished in 4.317s (firmware) + 7.099s (loader) + 11.796s (kernel) + 37.826s (initrd) + 9.587s (userspace) = 1min 10.627s 
graphical.target reached after 9.587s in userspace.

The time the unit took to start is printed after the "+" character.

Here’s the output of systemd-analyze blame

The first thing I’ve noticed is some messages about ACPI and AE_NOT_FOUND; specifically, this is the error.

[    0.269042] [      T1] ACPI BIOS Error (bug): Could not resolve symbol [\_SB.PCI0.GPP4.WLAN], AE_NOT_FOUND (20250807/dswload2-162)
[    0.269064] [      T1] ACPI Error: AE_NOT_FOUND, During name lookup/catalog (20250807/psobject-220)

Looking around a little bit it looks like either you get a BIOS update fixing it or you can ignore, which is what I’ve been doing.
For what I understand from logs it looks like it’s something with initrd, maybe when it’s checking my SSD’s partitions, but I have no idea what to do with this info. In fact,I see start jobs running for dracut and /dev/disk/xxxx .
Here you can see the output of journalctl -b | grep -i initrd but I can attach the full log if needed.

Secure Boot is enabled on the system. I mention it because once I disabled it for a brief period of time, as I needed to troubleshoot some issues with nvidia and then I put it back on. During this time, on multiple boots, load times were much shorter, about 30 seconds, which is similar to the time it takes initrd to do its thing.

I would like to understand why this is happening and if it is in some way possible to speed up the process. I don’t turn on and off my pc 20 times a day, but a less slow boot time would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

That is your 36 seconds.

Would be good to enable more debug output for systemd/initrd, edit the kernel command line and add:

  • Add systemd.log_level=debug and systemd.log_target=console
  • Add rd.debug

At the Grub2 menu, tap the “e” key, this will pop you into edit mode for the highlighted boot option. Then add these options on the line starting with linux and have a look at the journal after booting with these parameters.

I added the parameters you suggested and this is what I got. First, only grepping initrd

sudo journalctl -b | grep -i initrd

I don’t think it is related, but nr1 is for opensuse15, and set to never refresh. Are you sure that is correct?

Also see these ones below, how does that look on your machine?

knurpht@Lenovo-P16:/var/lib> LANG=C ls -ltR *initrd*
ls: cannot access '*initrd*': No such file or directory
knurpht@Lenovo-P16:/var/lib>

and

knurpht@Lenovo-P16:/var/lib> LANG=C zypper se -si initrd
Loading repository data...

No matching items found.

    Note: For an extended search including not yet activated remote resources please use 'zypper
    search-packages'.
knurpht@Lenovo-P16:/var/lib>
7 
ls: cannot access '*initrd*': No such file or directory

This was launched in the /var/lib/ directory

$ zypper se -i initrd
Loading repository data...
Reading installed packages...
No matching items found.

So this kind of looks like it does on your machine.
Regarding the first repo, I used this as a guide, and I now moved to G07/595 drivers.
I don’t know if it has anything to do with the situation I’m in, but I believe not as I always had those slow times right after the fresh install, even before adding repos for nvidia drivers.

On InitRD, this is no package or program but the Initial ramdisk in the boot process:

Based on the first log it seems there is something in the InitRD that take >25 seconds.

That is a lot of log info and normally I am not so “scared” of that, just find the 3 “Reached” lines we identified earlier and see what is happening in between but somehow enabling debug drops these messages, stupid.

What is remarkable are 1706 times:

Mar 15 12:57:12 tardis kwin_wayland[2081]: 0x500: GL_INVALID_ENUM error generated. Invalid .
Mar 15 12:57:12 tardis kwin_wayland[2081]: Invalid framebuffer status: “GL_FRAMEBUFFER_INCOMPLETE_MISSING_ATTACHMENT”

Not that think that is related to long boot times.

Can you maybe capture another boot only with rd.debug defined? Those “Reached” log statements are systemd AFAIK.

This is with only rd.debug added

I also took a look at dmesg, I don’t know if it can help.

It looks like it is the cleanup service taking its time?
Also here there are the full logs for the journal (1, 2) and dmesg.
I did notice the gl_framebuffer spam as well, it looks like something to do with nvidia and external monitors I believe, but that would be a topic for a different discussion.

No, apparently it is the following sequence that wastes some 40s:

it needs only some 2s here…
And apparently there is something odd with a disk:

waiting for: dev-disk-by\x2duuid-4decae4b\x2d9c38\x2d4e7b\x2d9888\x2dc553de6a90b4.device
11

As a reference here is mine on a slightly older system:

Startup finished in 2.260s (firmware) + 15.643s (loader) + 1.142s (kernel) + 2.819s (initrd) + 13.919s (userspace) = 35.785s

So there are some 10s wasted in the kernel phase and some 35s wasted in the initrd phase? Are you using encryption on the disk?
Also note that EXT4 and not BTRFS is in use here for the root partition and that might be a factor, but also SATA SSD here vs. nvme that should be faster…

12

It should be the root partition I think.

Yes, I use btrfs, I pretty much went with the defaults, with no separate /home and no encription. I also expected boot to be faster, as this time is what I get on a very older laptop, with no ssd…

13

Hello. Just for reference, in my own case – with hardware similar to the OP’s – I had a similar boot time when using grub2-efi. I did a fresh install with systemd-boot and the boot time dropped by 25 seconds.

14

Yes, the root partition. I don’t think that btrfs matters here, because the disk itself is fast (your loader time is half mine) and the system appears to be waiting for the disk, not actually accessing it. Is there anything but “defaults” in /etc/fstab for the root partition? Is the disk powered down to save battery or such?
Maybe you need somebody with similar HW and setup to compare, or a better understanding than mine about the disk subsystem :frowning:

15

@ephemeral Hi, I could be an issue with the NVMe Controller… Can you show the output from;

inxi -Saz
/sbin/lspci -nnk | grep -A2 NVMe

You could also try adding this kernel option and see if it makes a difference;

update-bootloader --add-option nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
update-bootloader --config

<To remove>
update-bootloader --del-option nvme_core.default_ps_max_latency_us=0
update-bootloader --config
16

I never edited fstab so everything should be default

Hi @malcolmlewis I added that kernel option but nothing really changed, it pretty much took the same time to complete the boot, so I think I will remove it now

systemd-analyze

graphical.target reached after 8.318s in userspace.

@ephemeral then try adding the option pcie_aspm=off your not seeing AER errors, journalctl -b | grep AER

sudo journalctl -b | grep AER

Adding this other option didn’t help either, same boot time once more.

@ephemeral So looks like nothing NVMe related then… Have you tried updating the system to get to “20260315” and newer kernel?

@malcolmlewis not yet, though I don’t know if it can help… Like, I will update indeed, but I’ve got those times since the first time I installed tumbleweed on this machine, updates have never changed anything regarding boot times. Actually, not even reinstalling, as I’ve tried it in the past, so idk what could it possibly be. I guess whatever setting from default I get makes this machine take longer than normal.
