Bug#1025158: please include qrtr and qrtr-mhi in nic-wireless-modules

2022-11-30 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Source: linux
Version: 6.0.0-5
Severity: wishlist

Please include the qrtr and qrtr-mhi in the nic-wireless-modules
binary package (or another one pulled in by DI).  These modules
are required by ath11k_pci to work, which is needed to install
on e.g. a Thinkpad T14s Gen3 AMD.

Bug#828826: nfs-common: move of rpc_pipefs mountpoint to /run breaks blkmapd

2016-06-28 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: nfs-common
Version: 1:1.2.8-9
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,

commit ba649fa4 ("Migrate the rpc_pipefs mount out of /var/lib to /run, to
better support /var on NFS.") in the Debian packaging repo completely
broke blkmapd, which still looks for rpc_pipefs in the old place.
>From looking in the BTS gssd also seems to have the same problem (#632141).

All the headers in xfslibs-dev are licensed under the LGPL.  The man
pages don't have specific licensing information in the source file nad
thus default to GPL.

I'll assume this should go into debian/watch?

It's probably best if you simply submit a patch that adds it with
proper From:, Subject: and Signed-off-by: tags so it can be applied
as-is.

As said, I don't disagree with your patch at all, I was just asking for
an additional patch which turned out not to be nessecary.

2012-11-30 Thread Christoph Hellwig
It probably makes sense to only allow it for mountpoints, then again
I fear people might already be using it differently in existing scripts.

Maybe be should add an -s / --strict option that forces it to only work
on mountpoints?

That's a known bug that Carlos wanted to look into.  If you really can't
accept smaller I/O without major pain make sure to use a larger logical
blocksize, which should be handled fine by everything.

Now that I've looked at nbd: I can't find any way to transfer the
physical or logical block size information to the nbd client.  How
do you try set it on the server?

2012-02-28 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Carlos, didn't you plan to look into this issue?

Goswin, how do you determin that mkfs is still doing unaligned I/O
when forcing the large sevtor size?  Once we set the sector size XFS
can't do I/O smaller than it.

Bug#598714: hfsprogs: manpages do not reflect Linux systems

2010-10-01 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: hfsprogs
Version: 332.25-8
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The manpage for the hfs/hfsplus mkfs and fsck tools are taken more or
less directly from MacOS X and do not reflect the actual situation on
Linux systems.

The patch below corrects the spelling of the tools from fsck_hfs to fsck.hfs
and newfs_hfs to mkfs.hfs respectively and fixes a few other minor issues:

 - stop mentioning rc.boot as the caller of fsck during boot time.
   The actual caller depends on the init system used and is not of any
   importance to the user, so just remove this detail.
 - remove a warning the fsck needs to be run on the raw device, this is
   not true for Linux which provides a cache coheren block device node.
 - do not mention MacOS-specific tools for partitioning disks.  We have
   quite a few tools on Linux, but at least under Linux a partition
   table is not required anyway.

The status with 2.30.2 from unstable is:

   marked as visited.
 - if I open a link in a new tab it's not marked as visited, even
   after a refresh
 - after restarting epiphany-browser even the link marked visited

Yes, the block device node is a cached access mode, and uses the same
pagecache as a filesystem uses.

Hmm, it really does look like the typical write cache corruption.

Looking a bit at the loop driver as suspsect I think I know what the
problem is:

 - loop writes data either using the address_space operations, or
   using ->write, but it never calls does the O_SYNC processing
   (just ->fsync in modern kernels, but a little different in 2.6.26)

So when using loop data simply gets written into the page cache, but
there is no guarantee it ever goes out to disk.

This bug is still present in latests upstream - a patch to introduce
barrier support calling ->fsync went in a while ago but caused
mysterious lockups and was reverted, with the patch author never
coming back to try to figure it out.

Bug#569598: disk caches?

2010-02-16 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Do you have disk write caches disabled on the machine?  Neither md, nor
dm, nor loop pass through barrier requests.  Without disabling the
volatile write cache on the disks you will lose data everytime the
machine is not shut down cleanly.  The messages you see are typical
for that kind of corruption.

This did indeed go away by upgrading to 2.28.0-4.

That's in fact what I have done.  But again, even a totally unconfigured

Sorry, but that's an absolutely dis-satisfactory answer.  Epiphany
basically becomes unuseable by installing something else, which is just
a a braindead default.  One that doesn't actually have any benefits at
all.

Bug#540376: e2fsprogs: filefrag reports files without allocated blocks incorrectly

2009-08-07 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.41.3-1
Severity: normal

It seems like the filefrag doesn't report the correct results for files
without any allocted blocks:

mkfs.xfs /dev/vdb5
mount /dev/vdb5 /mnt/scratch
touch /mnt/scratch/foo
filefrag /mnt/scratch/foo
/mnt/scratch/foo: 1 extent found

While xfs_bmap gets the right results:

qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# xfs_bmap /mnt/scratch/foo 
/mnt/scratch/foo: no extents

When actually having extents it seems fine:

qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# echo "foo" > /mnt/scratch/foo 
qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# filefrag /mnt/scratch/foo 
/mnt/scratch/foo: 1 extent found
qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# xfs_bmap /mnt/scratch/foo 
/mnt/scratch/foo:
0: [0..7]: 96..103

The behaviour is similar on ext3, but no tool to verify it there:

qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# mkfs.ext3 /dev/vdb5
mount /dev/vdb5 /mnt/scratch/
qemu1:~/xfstests-dev# touch /mnt/scratch/foo

I think the main problem is that there is no easy way to turn it off
in the gnome-terminal preferences - people can argue about defaults
forever, but a gconf key is not a sane way to switch it for a normal
user.

Bug#533162: gnome-terminal: gnome terminal complains when exiting with a running ssh session

2009-06-15 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: gnome-terminal
Version: 2.26.2-1
Severity: important

When closing a gnome-terminal through the window manage close button
while running a ssh session it requires a highly annoying confirmation
to really close it.  This makes gnome-terminal unuseable for managing
lots of temporary remote ssh sessions.  Before the last update from the
testing repositories this behaviour was not present.

Bug#510676: /etc/default/hdparm is not read on resume from suspend to ram

2009-01-04 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: hdparm
Version: 8.9-2
Severity: important

When resuming a laptop from suspend to ram (and probably disk too, but I
haven't tested) the /etc/default/hdparm file is not read and the commands
not executed.  That means after a suspend/resume cycle the disks is configured
differently than after a normal boot.  This is especially bad if
/etc/default/hdparm is used to disable the write back cache of the disk,
which can lead to disk corruption on an unclean shutdown when not using
barriers (which can't be used with lvm/md and are not used by default with
ext3).

Actually you can backup subtree with xfsdump, but you still need to

This is also documented in the manpage.

Are there any additional documentation updates you want to see to close

I don't think so.  Doing it properly in-tree will mean that it is

  a) properly reviewed
  b) means we can do the major VM bits in the kernel without these
 really stupid exports

Have you looked at MOL recently?  It's more than disgusting.

And in addition to these issue we do of course as policy not add
random hooks in the kernel tree for out of tree stuff.  Especially
for hacks like this that don't even have the intention to get merged.

Has been rejected a few times.  An now that we actually have kvm

exit_group is a systemcall and documented as such in the manpage.
It's not an interface exported by libc, and only used by libpthread

Or much better -dev=/dev/whatever.  cdrecord warns a bit because you're

We should probably CONFIG_REISERFS_FS_XATTR , although I'd suggest you
use another filesystem (ext3,jfs,xfs) if you use xattrs.  The reiserfs
xattr implementation is not very mature and causes problems much more
often than the others.

That's a pretty sure indicator that this devices is not supported by

Look at any file in /usr/include/asm/ on a current sid system ;-)

/usr/include/linux is per defintion architecture independent.  Only
/usr/include/asm is architecure-dependent.

There's no ppc64 architecture in debian (yet).  Besides that you should
never use kernel headers from userland.  Use glibc-kerneheaders which in
already does the proper redirecting of /usr/include/asm/ to 32 or 64 bit
versions depending on whether you're compiling with -m64 or not.

No, changing headers that way is a bad idea.  Fix your program to
not assume whether constants are anonymous unions or defines.

Probably.  Installing your own modules into the /lib/modules/*/kernel/
hierarchy is always wrong, they must go into /lib/modules/*/

ACK, mconfig is dead upstream, and the few remaining user will have
to stick with the crappy configure code in the kernel tree.

the ifconfig interface can only support a small subset of the linux
networking functionality and thus the linux networking maintainers did
indeed declare it deprecated.  That does not mean it'll go away but
you're no encouraged to use it either.

As said even a hotplug script on 2.4.x would be dangerous.  Anything
that requires hotplugging or rescanning of scsi devices should
absolutely use 2.6.x.

This works just fine when you use a 2.6 kernel.  With the 2.4 kernel
even the manual scan is extremly dangerous.

Because it doesn't provide much benefits while letting broken code
explode.  That doesn't mean you should file such reports against against
the kernel package unless that broken code is actually part of the
mainline kernel or the debian patches.

Bug#309218: broken xfs_freeze calls in grub-install

2005-05-15 Thread Christoph Hellwig
Package: grub
Version: 0.95+cvs20040624-17

grub-install calls xfs_freeze while doing write I/O to the filesystem
that is frozen.  This is a sure guarantee for deadlocking.  It's also
doing the freeze far too late, after's it's already been reading from
the block deviced directly (which it shouldn't do at all in the end,
but..)

Also it gives an odd warning about xfs_freeze segfaulting on non-XFS
filesystems which wasn't true for any version SGI released.

The patch below fixes all this:

Hey, it's not up to me to decide, I'm not even a DD.
But I'd be happy to see initrd-tools properly maintained

Including it with that patch sounds reasonable.  If you attach a
backport patch to this bug we can make sure to include it.  Else
I'm not sure it's going to happen in-time for sarge (or rather at
all for 2.6.8 as 2.6.10 has the change already)
