uvcvideo: Failed to query (GET_INFO) UVC control 4 on unit 2: -32 (exp. 1).

[corrado venturini]

at each boot I see the messages:
10:34:47 kernel: uvcvideo: Failed to query (GET_INFO) UVC control 4 on unit 2: -32 (exp. 1).
10:34:47 kernel: uvcvideo: Failed to query (GET_INFO) UVC control 4 on unit 1: -32 (exp. 1).
10:34:46 kernel: uvcvideo: Failed to query (GET_INFO) UVC control 2 on unit 1: -32 (exp. 1).

this happen on a partition running Ubuntu 18.10 kernel 4.18.0-7-generic but not on the partition running Ubuntu 18.04 kernel 4.15.0-34 on same hardware

The integrated webcam works fine and i don't have other webcam connected.

Did this issue start happening after an update/upgrade? Was there a prior kernel version where you were not having this particular problem?

Would it be possible for you to test the latest upstream kernel? Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Please test the latest v4.19 kernel[0].

If this bug is fixed in the mainline kernel, please add the following tag 'kernel-fixed-upstream'.

If the mainline kernel does not fix this bug, please add the tag: 'kernel-bug-exists-upstream'.

Once testing of the upstream kernel is complete, please mark this bug as "Confirmed".

Thanks in advance.

yes, this issue start happening after an upgrade, the problem was not present with installation from some old ISO and happen with all installations from recent ISO.
see also a similar bug for a different distribution: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/59175.
will try to test the latest upstream kernel but i'm not an expert...

I get this too on a 5th gen Lenovo X1 Carbon and mainline kernel. 4.20.0-042000rc7-generic at he moment, but it's been happening for some time not just this exact kernel.

[Brian K. White (bkw777)]

Problem is intermittent for me.

When I posted my previous comment, I had just done a fresh boot from power-off (I never use hibernate or suspend, and don't even have any swap partition or swap file configured), and had gotten the error on that boot, and guvcvideo didn't work.

I just did 4 more power-off reboots (using "shutdown" from the LXDE shutdown menu, not "reboot" or "suspend" etc) , and I didn't get the error any of those times, and guvcvideo worked in each of those sessions.

Same kernel each time, (4.20.0-042000rc7-generic).
Two of the boots I pressed enter in grub to skip the grub timeout, 2 times I let grub time out, no difference.

Old problem about Ubuntu 18.10. Changed status to invalid.

[Matt Nordsell (jcfreak1087)]

I'm running Ubuntu Budgie 21.10 & I'm having the same issue with my computer always having same error in the log that is causing me to have to restart my computer every time, I was seeing that there was mention about the webcam, does that seem to be the issue most of the time with this bug?

[Matt Nordsell (jcfreak1087)]

The issue is happening even after I would have a fresh install of the operating system.

[Matt Nordsell (jcfreak1087)]

It does seem to be at least when I just brought my computer out of sleep that the issue somehow is from a conflict with Linux & a webcam being plugged in, because when I saw last night that there seemed to be a link to the webcam, I unplugged my webcam from my computer & it was not frozen like it was always before. It seems like it could be that some webcams are in conflict with Linux when bringing it out of sleep, I have a laptop that also has a webcam on it, but when that is brought out of sleep, the laptop will load up right away, but my desktop computer is not.
