[CentOS] Creating a Centos endorsed 3rd part repo

[CentOS] Patent attack on Linux kernel
RHEL is mentioned in this attack on Google's use of the Linux kernel in back-end servers. http://www.theregister.co.uk/2011/04/21/texas_jury_says_google_infringed_linux_patent/ At least some of those sued were using Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) on the back-end. Google apparently uses its own version of Linux across its famously distributed infrastructure. Bedrock has also asked for an injunction preventing Google from infringing on its patent, but the court has yet to rule on this. Red Hat has also intervened in the case, asking the Bedrock patent be ruled invalid. http://fosspatents.blogspot.com/2011/04/texas-jury-finds-against-google-in.html ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I'm not so much asking for an actual estimate, as I am whether it would be easier just to go directly to 6.1 if it fixes any issues that make building the release easier. We basically need to get an almost fully functional version of 6.0 working anyway. In order to build the 6.1 packages, we need a fully up to date 6.0 tree to use for the build roots. The only thing that might speed up the 6.1 release process is to skip the anaconda generated ISOs for 6.0. But, in reality we are fairly close on 6.0 at this point, we may as well release it since we need a tree to build on anyway. signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I'm not so much asking for an actual estimate, as I am whether it would be easier just to go directly to 6.1 if it fixes any issues that make building the release easier. An .1 release is basically a .0 release + patches so I don't see any real difference. The hard part is reverse engineering the .0 release build environment and the .1 follows pretty quick from there. Occasionally a .x release breaks the environment and you get situations like 5.6 was.

If they needed any that is. In my experience packages that need dependencies from more than one 3rd party repo tend to be problematic. The more different repos required the more problems with conflicts between repos and different packaging philosophies. If you can confine your dependencies to at most one or two repos, then life will be easier for both you and any potential users of the packages. Again, once you have working packages, then offering to contribute and maintain them at the repo[s] on which they depend would be a good idea.

If you need to rely on other third party repos, and you are set on intent to have your own repo, then you will need your own release package and you might find necessity to distribute yum configuration files for other repositories with priority plugin enabled (like I did for my repo) and create security nightmare and distrust of general public, or to create installation script like virtualmin/webmin does. I created the set of release packages and a script that backups current set of yum config files and replaces them with config files created for particular use. For example, for use on servers I compiled main centOS repositories including CentOS Plus, EPEL, and several of my own repositories. For desktop users I added ATrpms, RPMForge and few others like adobe and pidgin repositories. But all of those yum config files are created by me, not by the repo owners and I have excluded all of the their release files including CentOS release files. I had to create text database file from witch I pull data and create sets of yum config files with inserted exclude and priority lines. Other option was to change yum config files for those repos by I decided this is easiest and safe for the user, but he has to trust that I will not redirect him to unsafe site with fake repository. That is why I haven't bothered with signing and was satisfied to use my repositories on system I maintain.

I am trying to automatize signing of unsigned .rpm files. My repo has at
least 50 x 3 packages.
But I would have to type numerous passwords for each file. I can not see
hot to pass pass phrase to script.
rpmsign --resign {--pass=??} filename from list

Hi Ljubomir.
Not sure if this would work for signing packages, but I use
this script to start all services listed in a text file:
#!/bin/bash
# Start all services on machine
echo
echo
echo Running script: $0
echo
echo
# start all services listed in service-names
xargs -a ./service-names -i chkconfig --level 2345 {} on
# list the status of services in service-names file
echo All services are now turned on (all those listed in
service-names file)
echo for run levels 2345
echo
xargs -a ./service-names -i chkconfig --list {}
echo
exit 0
You may be able to modify the above script to do what you
need it to. xargs is in the findutils package:
Name : findutils
Arch : i386
Epoch : 1
Version: 4.2.27
Release: 6.el5
Size : 662 k
Repo : installed
Summary: The GNU versions of find utilities (find and xargs).
URL: http://www.gnu.org/software/findutils/
License: GPL
Description: The findutils package contains programs which
will help you locate files on your system. The find utility
searches through a hierarchy of directories looking for
files which match a certain set of criteria (such as a
filename pattern). The xargs utility builds and executes
command lines from standard input arguments (usually lists
of file names generated by the find command).

[CentOS] scheduling differences between CentOS 4 and CentOS 5?
We have several latency-sensitive pipeline-style programs that have a measurable performance degredation when run on CentOS 5.x versus CentOS 4.x. By pipeline program, I mean one that has multiple threads. The mutiple threads work on shared data. Between each thread, there is a queue. So thread A gets data, pushes into Qab, thread B pulls from Qab, does some processing, then pushes into Qbc, thread C pulls from Qbc, etc. The initial data is from the network (generated by a 3rd party). We basically measure the time from when the data is received to when the last thread performs its task. In our application, we see an increase of anywhere from 20 to 50 microseconds when moving from CentOS 4 to CentOS 5. I have used a few methods of profiling our application, and determined that the added latency on CentOS 5 comes from queue operations (in particular, popping). However, I can improve performance on CentOS 5 (to be the same as CentOS 4) by using taskset to bind the program to a subset of the available cores. So it appers to me, between CentOS 4 and 5, there was some change (presumably to the kernel) that caused threads to be scheduled differently (and this difference is suboptimal for our application). While I can solve this problem with taskset, my preference is to not have to do this. I'm hoping there's some kind of kernel tunable (or maybe collection of tunables) whose default was changed between versions. Anyone have any experience with this? Perhaps some more areas to investigate? Thanks, Matt ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

We do procesing similar to this with financials markets datastreams. You do not say, but I assume you are blocking on a select, rather than polling [polling is bad here]. Also you do not say if all threds are under a common process' ownership. If not, mod complexity of debugging threading, you may want to do so I say this, because in our testing (both with all housed in a single process, and when using co-processes fed through an anaoymous pipe), we will occasionally get hit with a context or process switch, which messes up the latencies something fierce. An 'at' or 'cron' job firing off can ruin the day as well Also, system calls are to be avoided, as the timing on when (and if, and in what order) one gets returned to, is not something controllable in userspace Average latencies are not so meaningful here ... collecton of all dispatch and return data and explaining the outliers is probably a good place to continue with afer addresing the foregoing. graphviz, and gnuplot are lovely for doing this kind of visualization -- Russ herrold ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Something like that exist? It seems like you are approaching this backwards - whatever originates the changes should commit, and perhaps replace the rsyncs with updates at the other location(s). But, if you use subversion, it is smart enough to only commit actual differences so it wouldn't hurt to just schedule a fairly frequent commit at the top level. If nothing changed, the commit has no effect. The down side is that subversion wants a complete hidden copy under .svn in every subdirectory so the client can detect changes without contacting the repository. Viewvc is a good web server companion for subversion to easily browse revisions and do color-coded diffs. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
[CentOS] SSD for Centos SWAP /tmp /var/ partition
Has anyone actually used a SSD in a Centos setup? My little experiment with a s/h WD drive for /tmp and SWAP partitions kicked the bucket on Wednesday, when the poor WD drive caught the click-of-death. It was a s/h drive to start with and lasted about 4 months. But that was without the /var/log/ partition being written to it, as I mounted that back onto /var/log from the original drive. So I had to install another (WD) drive, and repartion it and rebuild my RPM package database, from the backed-up Packages file. That seems to be all OK now. I'm wondering if it would be a good idea to use a new SSD for moving all the disk i/o to, that Linux likes to do so often. Plus putting SWAP onto a decent SSD should speed things up somewhat. Here's a short video of a laptop fitted with a SSD drive booting macOS, compared to a similar laptop booting from the standard HDD. The laptop with the SSD boots and loads some apps in 28 seconds. The other one takes twice as long. http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/SSD/OWC/Mercury_Extreme_Pro_6G/?utm_source=thessdreviewutm_medium=bannerutm_campaign=042111 Kind Regards, Keith Roberts - Websites: http://www.karsites.net http://www.php-debuggers.net http://www.raised-from-the-dead.org.uk All email addresses are challenge-response protected with TMDA [http://tmda.net] - ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

[CentOS] scsi3 persistent reservations in cluster storage fencing
I'm interested in the idea of sharing a bunch of SAS JBOD devices between two CentOS servers in an active-standby HA cluster sort of arrangement, and found something about using scsi3 persistent reservations as a fencing method.I'm not finding a lot of specifics about how this works, or how you configure two initiator systems on a SAS chain. I don't have any suitable hardware for running any tests or evaluations yet. general idea: 2 centos servers each with 8 port external SAS cards (2 x4), cascaded through a SAS box-o-disks with a whole bunch of SAS dual ported drives, to implement high availability large nearline storage. all storage configured as JBOD, using linux md raid or lvm mirroring. drives should only be accessible by the currently active server, with heartbeat managing the fencing. here's a hardware block diagram http://freescruz.com/shared-sas.jpg This is about the only details I've found on scsi persistant reservations and linux HA http://docs.redhat.com/docs/en-US/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux/5/html/Configuration_Example_-_Fence_Devices/SCSI_Configuration.html One question I have is: how well will this scale with several strings of 100 SAS drives on the same HA pair of servers? Can SAS storage instead be fenced at the SES/expander level rather than having to use reservations with each separate drive? -- john r pierceN 37, W 123 santa cruz ca mid-left coast ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

I am not really trilled by entering blank passwords.
Anyhow, I have developed nice script for automatic signing of (--addsign
= only unsigned, --resign = all) rpm's.
Features:
1) It supports subdirectories of unlimited? depth.
2) Password is only asked once.
3) Timestamps are preserved.
4) Script outputs check of rpm's together with active GPG Key ID and
time of signing. Useful for final check and logging.
I hope this script will find good use for rpm packagers.
I named the script rpm-autosign.
Code:
