I think I find the problem, when the kernel header don't match the kernel image,
bpfcc will throw Invalid argument exception, following is my test log:

It looks not a kernel bug, but a kernel team's bug. If signed and
unsigned kernel use the same header files, they should have the exact
same version in Debian archive.

I'm very glad that you can take over spice related packages, in the last two years, I found I have almost no time working on Debian and related works, I even consider resign from Debian, but finally decide stay in, hoping some day I can have free time. spice-gtk is another large part of spice project, it provides the client side of spice, would you like takeover it too ? > > Also, which libcacard update are you talking about?

For you are the primary maintainer of qemu, it would be easy to maintain libcacard.

Bug#742272: ITP: ocserv -- OpenConnect VPN Server
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Liang Guo guoli...@debian.org X-Debbugs-CC: debian-de...@lists.debian.org Package name: ocserv Version: 0.3.2 Upstream Author: Nikos Mavrogiannopoulos n...@gnutls.org URL: http://www.infradead.org/openconnect/ License: GPLv2 Description: OpenConnect VPN Server OpenConnect server (ocserv) is an SSL VPN server. Its purpose is to be a secure, small, fast and configurable VPN server. It implements the OpenConnect SSL VPN protocol, and has also (currently experimental) compatibility with clients using the AnyConnect SSL VPN protocol. The OpenConnect VPN protocol uses the standard IETF security protocols such as TLS 1.2, and Datagram TLS to provide the secure VPN service. The server is implemented primarily for the GNU/Linux platform but its code is designed to be portable to other UNIX variants as well. Ocserv's main feature is isolation of the VPN users from the main VPN server process. Each authenticated user is assigned an unprivileged worker process, and a networking (tun) device. That not only eases the control of the resources of each user or group of users, but also prevents privilege escalation due to any bug on the VPN handling (worker) server. Each VPN user can be authenticated using password, PAM, public key (in a smart card or not) or any combination of methods.

Bug#740942: [samba] /etc/init.d/samba forbit systemd shutdown system
Package: samba
Version: 2:4.1.5+dfsg-1
Severity: important
After switch to systemd, my system cannot be shutdown/reboot normally
as before, after some digg, I found systemd cannot correctly shutdown
samba, even with systemctl, after remove samba with 'insserv -r samba',
my system can be shutdown/rebooted as expected.
I think the reason is that /etc/init.d/samba calls /etc/init.d/{smb,nmb,
samba-ad-dc}, it is not a problem in old init system, but (I guess)
systemd cannot call systemd to stop another service.
Why should /etc/init.d/samba be used to start/stop smb/nmb/samba-ad-dc,
why not let /etc/init.d/{smb,nmb,samba-ad-dc} do their own job, I
means call /etc/init.d/{smb,nmb,samba-ad-dc} to complete their own job.
If there are some specific startup order, why not create only ONE init
script to complete this task?
Thanks,

The bucket size is intended to be equal to the size of your SSD's erase blocks, which seems to be 128k-512k for most SSDs; feel free to experiment. probe-bcache Only necessary until support for the bcache superblock is included in blkid; in the meantime, provides just enough functionality for a udev script to create the /dev/disk/by-uuid symlink. The arguments it does support are the same as for blkid. bcache-super-show Prints the bcache superblock of a cache device or a backing device. Hi, Any progress on this ITP? bcache is enabled in linux-image-3.10-rc5-amd64.

Dear Maintainer,
This bug was found on a system running as a qemu-kvm virtual machine.
The system does not have systemd or a desktop environment. It has
the fluxbox window manager. When I would run
invoke-rc.d spice-vdagent start the daemon would try but fail to start.
Noting that spice-vdagent-0.14.0 had been released at spice-space.org with a
fix for this problem, I built the 0.14.0 binaries and replaced the 0.10.1-1
binaries. The vdagentd daemon started and worked as expected.
Perhaps it is time to introduce the updated 0.14.0 release to Debian.

You're talking about https://github.com/mingzhao/dm-cache right? I've seen it but couldn't figure out how to use it... Nice to have it merged though even if it is not immediately useful... I think the answer is No. mingzhao implemented dm-cache several yeas ago, it was used to accelerate cd-rom or nfs access by using hard disk. but had never been merged to upstream kernel. Several yeas later, facebook created flashcache based on mingzhao's dm-cache when SSD becomes popular, then STEC, Inc created enahnceIO based on flashcache. DM-cache merged to upstream kernel in 3.9-rc1 is not the one wrote by mingzhao, but from RedHat, I don't know whether it has any relation with mingzhao's dm-cache.

[4] http://lwn.net/Articles/536018/ which can be used to replace EnahnceIO/flashcache/bcache(IMO). IMHO bcache will never be a viable option due to maintenance overhead of custom patched kernel and (more important) because bcache require special preparation/formatting of block devices and therefore can't be plugged to existing file systems with data. I see that flashcache matured since 2011 and these days it doesn't cripple performance-wise as it used to. EnhancIO is just fantastic and (hopefully) immediately useful.

3) Current status of spice in Debian
At the end of the discussion in bug 603699, I decide to package spice
with a embeded celt051, and celt051 runtime library is in package
libspice-server1[6] now. Spice package is in a bad shape, but it
provide the same function as the upstream.
Why do you say the package is in bad shape ? Please explain.
Current version in experimental, if not counting the removal of
celt, should be quite good, no?
IMO, spice 0.10.1-3~nocelt in experimental is in good shape, spice
0.10.1-2 with celt embedded in sid is not.
Embedding celt in spice cause celt not available in other
archetecture, if other package ,spice-gtk for example, need
celt, it wll be limited to spice supported archetecture.
4) The fueture
4.1 Remove spice celt051 support in Debian
Actually spice support another codec: RAW, when using raw codec, audio
streams is not compressed, so more bandwidth is consumed, When using
spice in Internet, the latency will become large and introduce bad
user experience.
This is what some upstream developers are saying: don't remove/disable
celt051 due to some bad user expirence this causes. Without audio
compression, spice will be less useful on slow links since audio will
work worse (require more bandwidth, will be jumpy or not work at all).
Note there's no bandwidth requirements on spice site at all, be it
with celt or without.
Michael have tested the compatibility for spice server with and
without celt051 and spice client with and without celt051, and send
the patch[8] to the upstream, but the upstream refused to apply this
patch, they insist spice should come with celt051 support now.
I have run some tests, yes, but I'm really not sure I did it right,
since I don't really know how to ensure the audio is transferred
using spice and not by using some other mean.
We can apply this patch and ship spice without celt in Debian, but for
we are not expert on spice and celt, and lack necessary device to test
the compatibility with the upstream release, we may in the risk of
shipping spice that not compatible with spice in other distribution.
And there's one more issue here. Reportedly (according to upstream
spice developers), a) some older versions of spice didn't support
RAW audio stream properly (were buggy), so these wont work with
celt-crippled version of spice, but I for one didn't find definitive
answers about which versions were buggy and how and where these were
shipped with. And b) even the current version of spice hasn't really
been tested much in RAW audio stream mode. I'd not be surprized if
the only tests of this mode ever made were mine, but I'm not even sure
I actually ran spice-transferred audio or not. So there's alot of
uncertainity in there.
4.2 Completely remove spice
If spice is removed from Debian, We will not able to use debian as a
spice server or spice client.
This is a bad move, since spice is very frequently used feature with
qemu/kvm, and we'll have to deal with possible incompatibles within
libvirt too, who may expect to use spice-enabled qemu/kvm. But it
is definitely one of possible solutions.
We can still run Debian in RHEV or other spice compatible qemu/kvm
hypervisor, xserver-xorg-video-qxl and spice-vdagent don't use celt.
Thank you for your kindly help.
Now, I think the best course to take is:
1) push current experimental, celt-less version to unstable,
after some basic verifications of audio.
2) maybe update to 0.11, to at least fix known bugs.
It is unclear whenever upstream will support 0.10 stable version, but it
is more
no than yes, or else the 32bit bug should have been fixed long ago.
3) depending on the result (if it works at all or not ;), either keep it
this way or drop it from wheezy entirely.
How can we test spice with celt removed to make sure it works fine? if we
can and we do the test. I think it's OK to ship spice without celt to wheezy,
and no technical committee decision is needed.
Consider another situation, we can do some simple test aganst spice with
our patch that removes celt support, spice client {with, without} celt can
connect to spice server {with, without} celt, and audio works, but we cannot
test spice without celt with older spice used by other platform, should
we include our spice without celt to wheezy or remove it? This is what
I want technical committee to help us to decide.
(I assume upstream will test celt with older release, but I know nothing
about upstream work flow).
4) if it will work okay, maybe we'll have a chance before wheezy release to
have

Bug#678679: Spice, current status and the fueture in Debian
Package: tech-ctte Severity: normal Hi, Technical Committee, We'd like to decide how the spice[1] should be maintained in Debian. 1) Background The Simple Protocol for Independent Computing Environments (SPICE) is a remote display system built for virtual environments, just like vnc or remote desktop, but provide more rich feature and better performance. SPICE was developed by Qumranet[2], which was acquared by RedHat, RedHat is the primary sponsor of SPICE and includes it in RHEL (since 5.4) and RHEV platform. Spice has 2 different part, server part and client part, server part is intergrated to qemu, client part can be a standalone program, such as spice-gtk and virt-viewer, or run as a browser plugin. Spice client and spice server communicate with tcp socket. Spice can only works on x86 and i386 platform now. Spice project provide xserver-xorg-video-qxl and spice-vdagent as the guest xserver driver and the guest helper program to provide copy/pause support in qemu/kvm guest OS. 2) Celt, the root of our problem Spice uses celt[3] for audio codec. Different celt version may use different bitstream, it means that if Spice client want to correctly decode audio codec from spice server, it should use the same celt version as the spice server. For compatibility or other reason, the upstream decide to pin to celt 0.5.1. Celt is already in Debian[4], and is maintained by Ron Lee. For celt 0.5.1 is not maintained by upstream any more, including it in Debian may introduce potential security problem, so we decide to not include it in Debian. this problem has been discussed at bug 603699[5]. According messages from Ron, celt is offically dead, the upstream will not maintain it any more. A new codec, opus, is published as RFC by the IETF CODEC working group, and is encouraged to replace celt. Alon Levy is working on adding opus codec support to spice, but it is not merged into upstream git yet. Even opus codec support is added by upstream, in order to compatible with the previous version, they may not remove celt051 codec soon. 3) Current status of spice in Debian At the end of the discussion in bug 603699, I decide to package spice with a embeded celt051, and celt051 runtime library is in package libspice-server1[6] now. Spice package is in a bad shape, but it provide the same function as the upstream. Spice client program, spice-client and spice-gtk depends on libspice-server1, for they uses celt runtime library. xserver-xorg-video-qxl and spice-vdagent are in Debian and in a good shape. According the Popcon statistics[7], 0.13% Debian users uses spice-client, 3.21% Debian uses uses libspice-server1(for qemu/kvm depends on libspice-server1, this can be traded as qemu users), so 4% qemu/kvm user uses spice-client. 4) The fueture 4.1 Remove spice celt051 support in Debian Actually spice support another codec: RAW, when using raw codec, audio streams is not compressed, so more bandwidth is consumed, When using spice in Internet, the latency will become large and introduce bad user experience.
