Re: acct v3 support

The file http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/utils/acct/readme.txt mentions: Note that the --raw option of dump-acct makes for a nice little format converter together with the new --format and --byteswap options, if multiformat support is compiled in. It works in any direction, which particularly means you don't get locked into using this special version of the accounting tools. Rather, you might back out at any time and in any direction (v0 or v3 format). You might decide to completely switch over to v3 format and use multiformat-enabled acct tools only once during conversion. v3 format is source compatible with unmodified GNU acct 6.3.5, but only if v0/v1/v2 format is completely removed from the kernel (see acct cleanup patch at http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/2.7/) and the resulting linux/include/acct.h file is copied into /usr/include/linux before ./configure is invoked. among other things.

acct v3 support
Are there plans to have more architectures enable the newer accounting file format via CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT_V3 ? I'm actually only interested in amd64. $ egrep 'CONFIG_BSD_PROCESS_ACCT_V3=y|linux-2.6-2.6.12/debian/arch/' \ linux-2.6_2.6.12-5.diff The above seems to indicate that v3 is enabled for alpha and hppa. I realize enabling this feature may require changes in the user space tools, e.g. http://www.physik3.uni-rostock.de/tim/kernel/utils/acct/ Should I file a wishlist bug? (Please Cc me responses as I'm not on the list.) Thanks for your time, Ryan -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Bug#286733: initrd-tools: sg.ko required by SATA machine
Package: initrd-tools Version: 0.1.74 Severity: normal As request by one of the AMD64 developers: http://lists.debian.org/debian-amd64/2004/12/msg00477.html An SATA workstation requires sg.ko to boot properly. I had to roll our own initrd, but it'd be nice if the standard deb came with an initrd that had the right module. kernel-image-2.6.9-9-amd64-k8 Here's the requested output: $ lspci :00:06.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 PCI (rev 07) :00:07.0 ISA bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 LPC (rev 05) :00:07.1 IDE interface: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 IDE (rev 03) :00:07.2 SMBus: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 SMBus 2.0 (rev 02) :00:07.3 Bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 ACPI (rev 05) :00:07.5 Multimedia audio controller: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8111 AC97 Audio (rev 03) :00:0a.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge (rev 12) :00:0a.1 PIC: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X APIC (rev 01) :00:0b.0 PCI bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X Bridge (rev 12) :00:0b.1 PIC: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] AMD-8131 PCI-X APIC (rev 01) :00:18.0 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 NorthBridge :00:18.1 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 NorthBridge :00:18.2 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 NorthBridge :00:18.3 Host bridge: Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] K8 NorthBridge :01:02.0 Unknown mass storage controller: Silicon Image, Inc.
