Hi, thank you for your excellent work! I really like it. I noticed there is a bug during sleeping, as it keeps writing the log files when my laptop is sleeping, which consumes all my /tmp file space. I checked the .log file, as shown in the figure, it keeps writing the lines in the image.

That is very concerning! I'm not sure how the process could run and writing could happen whilst the laptop is asleep. We will deal with this.
- Are you sure the laptop is actually asleep? Can you ping/ssh into it?
- Do all the repeated logs have the same timestamp?
It would be great if you could post your cfg.yaml as well as the .log up until it starts thrashing.
Please also include .log after waking up.

Hi, Thank you for your quick response. I just did a few test, it seems it is because that I use the command swaymsg "output * dpms off" before sleeping, I suspect it causes the issue.
As for your second question, the repeated logs have different timestamps.
If you could help me fix it, I will really appreciate it.

Ah I see. I think I've seen something like this before: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wlroots/wlroots/-/issues/2325
Take a look at your sway logs. There may be a constant stream of pageflip/commit fail messages. They indicate that the monitor is in an undefined state.
Try setting wiki: Unusable Displays Following MODE WLR_DRM_NO_MODIFIERS=1
For me to help you further I'm going to need:
- log head and tail as requested #167 (comment)
- is your laptop really asleep?

That's good news - makes our diagnosis easier.
HDMI-A-2: No preferred mode, falling back to maximum available
That's a bad sign. It looks like (cut off) it might be trying all modes and failing them all.
I've seen that on a laptop with an nvidia GPU failing to pass through to intel, with some nonstandard nvidia module options set. Sway/wlroots logs confirmed it with DRM setting failures.
What is your laptop make/model?
Options, easiest first:
In all cases, please observe and collect your sway logs. They'll indicate problems that won't be reported to way-displays.
- Try a conservative mode for the HDMI monitor, say,
MODE:
- NAME_DESC: XV340CK
WIDTH: 1920
HEIGHT: 1080
HZ: 60- Try WLR_DRM_NO_MODIFIERS=1
- Try WLR_DRM_NO_ATOMIC
- Post
sudo hwinfo > hwinfo.log- that will show us kernel params as well as detailed hardware info.
LeeLizuoLiu commented
Hi, thank you! my make/model is Huawei/Matebook14. I believe I'm in the pure cpu mode, the Nvidia GPU is deactivated. I will try the options you mentioned.
hwinfo seems to generate 10000+ lines log file, I used lspci then.

By the way, just a work around, remove the log file seems eliminate the issue.

Thanks for all the digging. Unfortunately there's nothing unusual in the sway logs.
What were the results of 1, 2 and 3? Did the display work correctly?
By the way, just a work around, remove the log file seems eliminate the issue.
That is very strange! Do you mean that the display failures are eliminated?
Is it an issue with /tmp? What happens when you log to another filesystem, say, /home/alex/wd.log?
Alternatively, for testing, you could run way-displays from a terminal so that we can see the output. You would need to remove the exec way-displays line from your sway setup first.
LeeLizuoLiu commented
For the option 1,2,3, all of them display correctly, but they still created really large log file (about 1GB).
The display works, but it creates infinite log file which consumes all the /tmp space. I will try to store it into another location and update it later.
LeeLizuoLiu commented
I tried to log to /home/leeliu/wd.log, the logging file goes to 1GB too when monitor has been off.
alex-courtis commented
This is very puzzling; I'm not able to replicate anything with sway 1.9 wlroots 0.17.2. Deprecated dpms off and current power off behave as expected.
Let's confirm so that we can come up with a full test case:
- Does the issue occur after
dpms offor before? - Why do you use
dpms offbefore sleeping? - Can you use
way-displays -s disabled HDMI-A-1instead ofdpms off?
Based on the above, I'm going to ask for a complete single test case. We have a lot of information above however they are for different scenarios and it's not clear what the conditions are.
