Sorry for this taking a bit longer than I had hoped.  I now have

2.4.27-8. 

I have made both kernel-source-2.4.27 and kernel-image-2.4.27-i386 up on
http://debian.vergenet.net/pending/ for people to take a look at.

I aim to releaase these verbatim tomorrow if there are no objections. If
you make an updates to SVN please drop me an email, so I make sure that
they make it in. As I am not intending to rebuild again. If you put

Bug#291354: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686: Clock is running too fast under Suspend to RAM.

2005-01-20 Thread Mike Hommey
Package: kernel-image-2.6.10-1-686
Version: 2.6.10-4
Severity: normal

Preliminary note: this didn't happen with 2.6.9.

When suspending to RAM for a quite long time (like, the whole night),
at wake up time, the clock is far ahead. It seems to be running twice as
fast, actually, because it was 10 hours ahead this morning, after
roughly 10 hours of suspend to RAM...

Bug#291375: initrd-tools for Debian are one big mess

2005-01-20 Thread Bozhan Boiadzhiev
Package: initrd-tools
Version: 0.1.76
Severity: wishlist


If someone ever tried initrd tools for debian and red hat
you'l find a little difference .
With red hat tools you can do whatever you want and to customize 
initrd image the way you want very easy.
IN other way the dabian mkinitrd is very bad documented, can't do
most of the things for more complex operation or isn't documented how to 
do this operations. 
So my suggestion is ... get red hat initrd-tools and make them work in
debian and drop current initrd-tools OR make this thing works as it works 
in Red Hat .
This my opinion is based on my battle for crating initrd image for
booting strange raid controler  ITE8212f and complains from my friend
that he can't make initrd image to boot from USB Ffash memory with
debian but there isn't ANY problems with redhat.
And wow there are so many bug about initrd-tools.
I think debian kernel development team have to take this things very
seriosly.

Sorry for bad english and this is only my opinion.
It is possible that i am wrong:)

Thanks

Bug#291386: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686: creates bad initrd with complex lvm2 setup

2005-01-20 Thread Eric Deplagne
Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-2-686
Version: 2.4.27-7
Severity: critical
Justification: breaks the whole system

When the install of kernel-image tries to create initrd,
those lines go to /var/log/messages:

Jan 20 09:39:39 fregate kernel: device-mapper: unknown block ioctl 0x801c6d02
Jan 20 09:39:40 fregate last message repeated 14 times

I do have 15 logical volumes, which explains how many times the message is 
emitted...

I guess I should mention a bit of my partitionning scheme, out of my /etc/fstab:

# system
/dev/mapper/vg-root /   ext3defaults,errors=remount-ro 0   1
/dev/mapper/vg-usr_lib /usr/lib  ext3defaults 0   1
/dev/mapper/vg-usr_share /usr/share  ext3defaults 0   1
/dev/mapper/vg-doc /usr/share/docext3defaults 0   1
/dev/mapper/vg-locale /usr/share/localeext3defaults 0   1
/dev/mapper/vg-cache_apt /var/cache/apt/archivesext3defaults
0   2

maybe my having /usr/lib on a different logical volume is relevant...
just a guess of mine, of course...

my other logical volumes are one for /home, and some for subdirectories of 
/home,
so should not be relevant...

Last thing I guess I can mention is that on another machine, with only one 
logical volume for /,
and one for /home, /var/log/messages gets its two lines, but the system boots 
properly...

you might notice I presently run a 2.4.27-1-686, this is my rescue that I had a 
hard time to setup
when the problem first happend to me with the last update of 2.4.27-1-868,
which really hang the computer, having overwritten my working kernel.
(that did not happen this time because of the -1-686 to -2-686 move)

Notice the sleep is still running.  On a working kernel is isn't
because it has been sent a SIGHUP.

By the way, it appears the code concerned was copied from 2.6.8,
or a 2.6 kernel a least.  In 2.6.8, the code looks like this:

/* Defer ldisc switch */
/* tty_deferred_ldisc_switch(N_TTY);

  This should get done automatically when the port closes and
  tty_release is called */

read_lock(tasklist_lock);

When copied to 2.4.27, the code ended up like this:

/* Defer ldisc switch */
/* tty_deferred_ldisc_switch(N_TTY);

read_lock(tasklist_lock);

When the trailing */ is restored, the kernel works again.

Bug#274720: enumerating kernels where IDE detection fails

2005-01-20 Thread Stephen Gildea
I have the same hardware as Florent (Athlon, ASUS VIA, Adaptec RAID),
and I'm running into the same bug.  That is, the kernel sees my Adaptec
RAID disk fine (presented as SCSI, aacraid driver), but it doesn't see
any of my IDE disks.

I have done some experiments to try to pin down the location of this bug:

2.4.21-1-k7 fails to find the RAID array, but it works if I compile the
kernel with the Adaptec aacraid driver 1.1.5, and then it can see the
IDE disks.  Earlier 2.4 Debian kernels behave the same.

2.4.22-1-k7 and a 2.4.22 kernel I built with the Adaptec driver both see
the RAID array but fail to see the IDE disks.  Later 2.4 Debian kernels
behave the same.

2.6.0-1-k7 works completely.  Both the RAID and IDE disks work.

2.6.2-1-k7 fails to see the IDE disks.  Rebuilding myself gives the same
results.  Later 2.6 Debian kernels behave the same.

KNOPPIX works with recent 2.4 and all 2.6 kernels.  In particular,
2.4.26 and 2.6.6 kernels from KNOPPIX work.  That makes me think this is
a Debian bug, not a Linux bug.

So ... what broke between 2.4.21 and 2.4.22 and between 2.6.0 and 2.6.2?
Changes from 2.4.21 to 2.4.22 include the E-IDE driver (drivers/ide/)
changing from revision 6.31 to 7.00beta4.  I built a 2.4.22 kernel with
the ide driver from 2.4.21, and this worked.  It seems there has been a
regression.

I hope this information helps someone debug this further.  How can I help?
This problem is getting in my way.

  Stephen

Bug#287100: CONFIG_AUDIT is indeed fairly critical for

2005-01-20 Thread Manoj Srivastava
Hi,

CONFIG_AUDIT is required to have Se-Linux be usefully
 deployed, since without tht we can't even test any other aspect of
 Se-Linux functionality in the Debian kernel image packages. Without
 audit, any modifications needed to policy are hard to discover, since
 policy violations are just silently blocked -- even if that is not
 the desired option. Also, as a user, it is nice to know when attempts
 are made that violate security polices ;-)

Indeed, this is what Kconfig says in 2.6.10:
==
config AUDIT
bool Auditing support
default y if SECURITY_SELINUX
default n
help
  Enable auditing infrastructure that can be used with another
  kernel subsystem, such as SELinux (which requires this for
  logging of avc messages output).  Does not do system-call
  auditing without CONFIG_AUDITSYSCALL.
==

Adding AUDIT has a very minimal affect on the size of the
 resulting image.

Bug#291375: initrd-tools for Debian are one big mess

Come on! I had offered to take over initrd-tools several
months ago. I am sure that there would be several other
volunteers.
But a big part of the mess about initrd-tools is a lack of
documentation. It can do a lot, if you make use of the
scripts directory, for example.
If you want to replace initrd-tools by something else,
then I would suggest to switch to the new initramfs
procedure (see Gentoo).

 Failed to create initrd image.
 
 Same happens with 2.6.8.
 
 Manually installing dmsetup as /target/sbin/dmsetup before installing
 the base system cures the problem. The dmsetup package must be part of
 the base system to solve this permanently.

initrd-tools 0.1.76 changed to abort on install to LVM if dmsetup was
not installed. I think this was a mistake. I'm ccing tbm, who made the
change.

Here's the diff:

 dm() {
-   if command -v lvmiopversion  /dev/null 21; then
+   local dmname
+   
+   if ! command -v dmsetup  /dev/null 21; then
+   echo Root is on a DM device, but dmsetup not installed 2
+   exit 1
+   fi
+   
+   dmdev=$(printf (%d, %d) $major $minor)
+   
+   if ! dmsetup ls | grep -q $dmdev\$; then
+   echo Unknown DM device $major:$minor 2
+   exit 1
+   fi
+   
+   dmname=$(dmsetup ls | grep $dmdev\$ | sed 's/^\([^[:space:]]*\).*$/\1
/')
+   if dmsetup table $dmname | grep -q crypt; then
+   dmcrypt
+   elif command -v lvmiopversion  /dev/null 21; then
lvm
elif [ ! -x /etc/mkinitrd/scripts/evms ]; then
echo Unknown DM device $major:$minor 2

This was apparently added as part of a patch to support encrypted root
filesystems, which is not supported by d-i at all; silently adding a
requirement that dmsetup be installed for lvm systems when previously it
was not needed is not a good thing to have done.

It seems to me that the above code could easily be rewritten to skip
calling dmsetup if it was not installed, and run the lvm function. This
might be a little less robust on systems that do use encrypted root
filesystems, but at least it wouldn't require us to make last-minute changes
to d-i and debian-cd to add dmsetup everywhere.

At any rate, I agree with your solution, if there is no dmsetup it makes
sense to fall back to using lvm. Since cryptsetup depends on dmsetup, there
is nothing wrong with this solution.

Two gcc on the same machine - how to use one when needed?

2005-01-20 Thread Drasko Draskovic
I had problem compiling 2.4.18 vanilla kernel. I am
currently using gcc-3.3. I was wondering is there a
way to have two compilers on the same machine (I
suppose apt-get gcc-2.95 would do the job), and then
switch between them elegantly when needed. Gentoo has
a cute tool called gcc-config. Is there something like
this in Debian? 
How to switch between compilers?

Thanks,
I really need this 2.4.28 kernel with LinSec patch
compiled, for the project I'm working on

The usual way to get feature patches in the debian kernel is by sending

acceptable for general use.

External modules, as well as modules separated out for d-i, will break,
so they need to be kept in sync. IOW, needs new d-i-k-i-m68k, preferably
uploaded at the same time than the new kernel, and also updated external
modules if there are any.

   I have no idea about the abichanges, m68k uses no abiname? Is that a

  The downside of not includeing an abiname in the package name is that
  past d-i releases will break once the updated kernels and udebs reach
  testing.

 So they not yet released d-i releases break on the most popular arch of
 the early nineties. Does anybody care? If there were abinames in the m68k
 package (-1, -2, ... added to the package name?), would we create a new
 package for every abichange? Doesn't that contradict the plan of d-kernel to
 reduce the number of kernel-packages?

The point of using an abiname in your package naming is that you're assured
(barring bugs) that all kernel modules in your search path are compatible
with that kernel version.  If you use /lib/modules/2.4.27-$subarch instead
of /lib/modules/2.4.27-$abiname-$subarch, you have no mechanism for coping
with version skew when a Debian revision includes a change to the public
interfaces used by modules.

It does not contradict the plans for keeping the kernel package count down,
because you don't get to keep both ABI versions around -- you don't want the
old one *anyway*, because it has security bugs.  In any case, the source
package names are kept the same and only the binary package names change, so
you only ever get one of these in testing at a time.

Bug#289810: same fix as in 2.6.9

2005-01-20 Thread Itai Seggev
This bug is exactly the same as bug 282234 in 2.6.9, and it has the
same fix. You need to edit drivers/video/vesafb.c and move line 480
(which reads module_init(vesafb_init);) outside of the #ifdef
MODULE. I move it up to line 474 and everything works just
fine. Perhaps the debian patch can be fixed so it no longer moves this
line into the ifdef? (it's not in the pristine sources)

Many thanks,

 kernel-image-2.4.27-2-k6 please say so.

I am reassigning it to kernel-source-2.4.27 as that is where the
problem most likely lies.

Can you plase try the 2.4.27-8 kernels from 
http://debian.vergenet.net/pending/
I plan to upload these later today.

 I agree that this may be a problem in dash.  Anyway, there's a simple
 workaround, the only problem is this line

 and to make it the parser easier, simply put a space between the two '(':

Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686
Version: 2.4.27-6

After upgrading a kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686 kernel on a Debian sarge
system from 2.4.27-2 to 2.4.27-6, the 3c59x ethernet driver was no longer
working.

Installing a 2.6.8 kernel fixes the problem.

The problem may be at least partially within the PCI subsystem.

The system is an IBM thinkpad T20 laptop with an 3C556B Mini-PC
ethernet/winmodem card.

The principle symptom of the bug is that the MAC address, product code and
revision and revision date reported by the driver are have all bits set.

 00:03.0: 3Com PCI 3c556B Laptop Hurricane at 0x1400. Vers LK1.1.18-ac
 PCI: Setting latency time of devive 00.03.0 to 64
 ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff, IRQ 11
  product code  rev .15 date 15-31-127

and the eth0 device fails with messages like

 eth0: command 0x5800 did not complete! Status=0x
  (similarly for command 0x2804, 0x3002)

It would appear that whatever the driver is sending, the response always
has all bits set.

Other possible symptoms include messages such as

 ACPI-1133: *** Error: Method execution failure [\.SB.LNKA._STA]
(Node c11866a0), AE_NOT_EXIST

Similar problems have been reported in the past

  http://www.spinics.net/lists/kernel/old/2003-q1/threads.html#22099

These have usually been attributed to ACPI and APM or to the machine
having run Windows at some point. These problems persist if ACPI and APM
are disabled and the laptop never runs Windows...

This results in:

Package: kernel-image-2.4.27-1-686
Version: 2.4.27-6
Severity: important

Upgrading the kernel to 2.4.27-1-686 makes my Toshiba Tecra 8100  
very slow (think: running with a Pentium 75), to a point that it is 
almost unusable. 
Reverting to 2.4.26 fixes the problem.

Package: kernel-source-2.6.8
Version: 2.6.8
Severity: grave
Tags: security
Justification: user security hole

Paul Starzetz from iSec Security Research has discovered a local root exploit in
the Linux kernel:
 Locally exploitable  flaws have  been  found in  the  Linux
 binary format loaders' uselib() functions that allow  local
 users to gain root privileges.

The full advisory text: http://isec.pl/vulnerabilities/isec-0021-uselib.txt

I haven't found a patch for 2.6 yet, a patch for 2.4 is available in
the 2.4 Bitkeeper branch.

Package: kernel-source-2.4.27
Version: 2.4.27-6
Severity: normal

Hi kernel maintainers,

Starting from kernel-source-2.4.27-6, my Thinkpad T40p does not go into
suspend mode when I close the lid (even though I use the 'standard'
kernel-config provided with kernel-image-2.4.27-2, where ACPI and APM
support is compiled in, ACPI is not used according to the output of
dmesg:

ACPI: Subsystem revision 20040326
ACPI: Interpreter disabled.
[...]
apm: BIOS version 1.2 Flags 0x03 (Driver version 1.16)

)

It worked perfectly with the original debian kernel
kernel-image-2.4.27-2 (which is based on kernel-source-2.4.27-5 according
to the changelog). Now I have compiled my own kernel from
kernel-source-2.4.27-6 in two versions:
- including the patch 103-enter-acpi-early.diff (so the original source
  package)
- reverting the patch 103-enter-acpi-early.diff

in the first case, suspend does not work when I close the lid, in the
second case it does. And I do not use any extra kernel modules such as
the thinkpad modules.

For me, it's perfectly possible to work with a self-compiled kernel, but for
this IBM the debian-provided kernel worked out-of-the-box up to version
-2, which is pretty convenient for upgrading to newer version. That's
why I want to report this bug and hope that it can be fixed so that I
can go back to using the debian kernels without recompiling...

Thanks and best regards,

/Joerg
