[Ganglia-developers] possible Ganglia GSoC project, co-mentors?
Hi all, I have an inquiry from a student about doing a Ganglia-related GSoC project this year. They have submitted a proposal under Debian, although the work is not Debian-specific. They expressed interested in Python related tasks, including the ganglia-nagios-bridge and syslog-nagios-bridge code but they could also work on Python metric modules. Would anybody be interested in helping mentor this? Regards, Daniel -- Transform Data into Opportunity. Accelerate data analysis in your applications with Intel Data Analytics Acceleration Library.

Contributors can sign up and view the results at: https://scan.coverity.com/projects/640 Also if a ganglia comitter would like to be an admin at scan.coverity.com that would probably work out best in the long run instead of me. Hi all, I did this for reSIProcate some time ago. Originally, we had to download a tool from Coverity and run it and then post a data file back to Coverity for processing. I wrote a script to do that within travis-ci. Then they offered Github/Travis-CI integration and I didn't get around to updating things. It was awkward for a few reasons: - we run two travis-ci builds of every commit, both gcc and clang compilers, but Coverity should only integrate with one of them - the Coverity tool slows down the build and so for a big project like reSIProcate I had some concerns that it would take too long for developers to get positive confirmation that a pull request was valid. This issue is probably not so significant for a smaller project like Ganglia. - if a project has unit tests, it is not desirable for Coverity to scan that code as they frequently give false positives and the time spent scanning that code is wasted. The reports are definitely useful and Coverity finds some interesting issues. However, I found that these tools can also provide a lot of false positives - in other words, there is a low signal-to-noise ratio. If you have time to pick through each issue one by one though then you will usually find something that should be fixed. One thing that is useful is the report that tells you if a new commit added new issues, e.g. if you had 10,000 issues in your code base before and you never had time to go through them but a pull request adds 15 new issues then you might ask for the contributor to rectify the pull request so the net number of issues remains at 10,000. If you need any admin help to take this integration further please feel free to ping me.

From what I can tell, its use is isolated to lib/hash.[ch], and at first glance looks like it an alternate reader/writer lock implementation could be selected at runtime. Are the performance benefits of CK rwlocks really worth the added complexity, especially as ganglia continues to depend on APR, which also provides a rwlock implementation? Originally, I added CK in for the spinlocks because it seemed they would be held for very little time. However, it seems like a number of people are running into scenarios where gmetad usage spikes. I don't know what APR's rwlock has over pthreads, but it might make sense to switch back to a lock type that goes to sleep, given that there's significant contention over these locks when iterating the hash table. (Actually, I just looked at APR's rwlock implementation and it seems to be just a thin wrapper around pthreads on any OS I care about. So I'd be fine with that replacement.) After giving it a fair amount of thought over the last few months, I think our use case would not suffer greatly. Most of our performance improvements came with the ability to multiplex requests to rrdcached over TCP instead over a unix domain socket. That all said, there was a reason that I introduced a dependency to CK. The current hash table implementation avoids callers needing to think about thread safety by doing a huge amount of allocations and copies, which really hurts performance (especially on iterations, which have a huge impact with our number of metrics). gmetad is a great use case for Concurrency Kit in general, and I had hoped that putting it in would make it easier to do more performance work on it in the future. (Sadly, I just haven't had the time.) I'll catch up with Vlad about testing our metrics with APR rwlocks and see if that's going to work for us. (I think it will.) However, I would also like to solve whatever CK packaging problems are outstanding, as I would like to use it in future improvements. I made an effort to get ck into Debian and Ubuntu The problems I encountered are likely to be much the same for Fedora and EPEL so if we solve it in Debian then the rest will be easier too. The links to full build logs are here: https://packages.qa.debian.org/c/ck.html Notice that 0.3.5 made it into testing and 0.4.4 is stuck in unstable because of the build failures. The CK developers were willing to help and I indicated that I could sponsor them for a guest account on the build machines where CK fails so they can get to the bottom of it. In any case, if gmetad can run without ck then we should probably make that a 3.8.x release series, e.g. Ganglia 3.8.0 tag. The 3.7.x stuff can then become a branch for now and maybe CK support can be merged again in future when distributions are carrying it. -- Dive into the World of Parallel Programming.

The problem with getting onto the build machines was getting the key signed. That's an orthogonal problem, we can take that up off-list. Sooner or later we'll get that sorted out - there are Debian Developers just about everywhere these days. I've got a patch using APR rwlocks. Working with Vlad to get it tested in our environment. The future changes requiring CK would be much more invasive than just the change to remove it, so from a release engineering perspective, I don't see any reason to start from here as a branch point. I can fish out the commit with all the configure stuff when that actually happens. If you think it is feasible, you could also have both, using pre-processor conditional logic and an option to the configure script.

[Ganglia-developers] Ganglia GSoC funds - $2500 in bank
Google has paid the money for GSoC 2014. This includes: - reimbursement of airfares for Robert and I to attend the summit this weekend. I already paid out the money due to Robert. - a mentor stipend of $500 for each of the five projects (total $2500) The $2500 is currently in an account that I control and I would like to make sure it is handled in the right way for the Ganglia community. Some projects simply give each mentor the $500. No mentor has requested this but I have no objection to paying out the money in this way. As two of us (Robert and I) are funded to attend the summit in Mountain View, I personally felt that the $2500 could be spread across the other mentors and Ganglia contributors to attend conferences and give talks about Ganglia. Another idea is for Ganglia to have its own bank account and use this money as the opening balance. Organizations like Software in the Public Interest (SPI) and the Software Freedom Conservancy can do a lot of the administrative work to run the account. They can accept further (tax deductible) donations into the account and pay money out. Even with this outsourcing approach there is some overhead cost and some project members may need to form a committee or board to oversee the expenditure. If that is too much effort, then it is possible to simply give the money to a bigger open source project (e.g. Debian is raising money for various things like DebConf and OPW) or even to give some or all of the money to charity. The Ganglia book royalties currently go to Scholarship America. Maybe there are other charities people would like, e.g. those dealing with the Ebola crisis. -- ___ Ganglia-developers mailing list Ganglia-developers@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/ganglia-developers

The way the browser renders the source code dump, the error is rendered

who sees this for the first time may think the rendering is meaningful.
Try copying the raw index.php to /tmp/index.php.html and open it in a
browser and see what I mean.
If PHP is not executed at all, the browser renders the

[Ganglia-developers] case-insensitive hash comparison
Hi Devon, I'm writing about your commit https://github.com/ganglia/monitor-core/commit/02524bf2f5485cfd4cddb66bd3280e5a08a2232c in Ganglia. The comment mentions: 1) Get rid of case-insensitive metrics. I don't think these ever actually hit, but the code is silly. If we need it, we can normalize the data going into the table. The main reason for this is that some environments have inconsistent hostname practices. RFC 952 says there should be no distinction between upper case and lower case. In practice, in large heterogeneous environments, uppercase or mixed-case hostname strings appear. Ganglia needs to handle these intelligently. Metric names are Ganglia-specific though and it is quite OK for them to be case sensitive - as far as I know, the case-insensitive code was only added to support hostnames.

Re: [Ganglia-developers] Bug#743751: ck: FTBFS on i386: bytelock check fails
Ganglia builds are currently using v0.3.5 of CK This version is troublesome in the i386 and ARM builds on Debian buildd machine. This impacts the availability of the CK dependency on both Debian and Ubuntu. Newer versions exist - has anybody tested a newer CK version with Ganglia? Is there any enthusiasm for using a newer version or any known reason not to do so? The travis build is hardcoded to ck-0.3.5 but I will shortly tweak it to follow whatever version is available in Debian sid On 06/04/14 02:42, Aaron M.

[Ganglia-developers] Ganglia web 3.6.0 released, packages updated
I've made up a 3.6.0 release of ganglia-web using the latest code from master. The main motivation for this release is to get new packages into Debian with full source for all the minified JavaScript. The package was already in the process of being excluded: http://packages.qa.debian.org/g/ganglia-web.html (see REMOVED from testing) but now things should be back on track. The release can be downloaded from: https://github.com/ganglia/ganglia-web/releases and the Debian packages are now being built using the tarballs from that page.

I'm not sure how this works with javascript. Is there some debian jquery package that could be depended on? There is a jQuery package in Debian, but it is a slightly older version There are various issues that motivate these rules/policies in distributions: - disk space - security updates (better to just have one copy of X to update in one shot, hard to find multiple bundled copies of X and check they all have the latest/necessary security patches) - source - bundling any minified artifact is not consider to be real source code That said, given that every project seems to depend on a different version of jQuery, there is some leniency - Debian accepts bundled copies of some things like jQuery as long as they are not minified. It is perfectly OK to minify them in an installation script, but the source tarball from the Ganglia web site must be 100% readable source code. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=736104 I had a quick look at this and found that the jquery-ui stuff is not cleanly available as source because of the way it is built as a custom JavaScript file using the tool here: https://jqueryui.com/download so it is not a quick fix for me to simply drop in uncompressed JavaScript. What can be done is that instead of using the custom method to get jquery-ui, perhaps the full source from here: https://jqueryui.com/resources/download/jquery-ui-1.10.4.zip can be downloaded into the ganglia-web repository (including both the minified and the human readable version) and then the full minified .js file (rather than a custom.min.js file) can be used within ganglia-web Are the ganglia-web developers happy to support that version of jquery-ui? Is there any reason the custom version has to be used?

[Ganglia-developers] GSoC funding grants for Ganglia project
According to GSoC FAQ, Ganglia will receive a generous $500 payment for each student we mentor: https://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/document/show/gsoc_program/google/gsoc2014/help_page#1._How_do_payments_work I just thought I'd start this thread to try and capture ideas about how we should collect the money (there are organizations like SPI and Software Freedom Conservancy who can handle it for us) and how it could be spent. There are a few ideas I had already (like buying up copies of the book to try and get into the best seller list) but it would be good to hear more sensible ideas from other people first - please reply with any suggestions you may have. Also, the more mentors we get, the more projects will potentially be funded and the larger the pot of money Ganglia will receive. Extra mentors, co-mentors and project ideas are still completely acceptable at this stage. Regards, Daniel -- Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software. Cisco certified tool.

[Ganglia-developers] [gsoc] Google Summer of Code 2014 - Ganglia is in
Hi all, Please excuse my cross-posting (please reply on ganglia-developers), it is a big announcement Ganglia is one of about 200 leading free software projects selected to participate in Google Summer of Code 2014. We are also keen to collaborate with the RRDtool community on this. This is a tremendous endorsement of our project. Google does not formally announce how they rank and select projects, but I suspect some of the following are involved: - the caliber of the team who volunteered to be listed as potential mentors (more people are still welcome to participate too) - the long track record of collaboration in the code repositories - the positive interaction that takes place every day on our mailing list - the very successful Ganglia book published by O'Reilly What next: - please keep adding project ideas on the wiki, even if you are not willing to mentor (but if you are willing to, please include your name as a mentor) - both Ganglia and RRDtool related projects are welcome but the actual number of projects that proceed will depend on the quality of the student applications and the number of places Google agrees to fund (that will be confirmed later) - if you can't commit as a full time mentor, you can also contribute as a co-mentor in a team, this is usually easier for most people - if you know potential students or places to recruit high caliber students, this can also be a great way to assist Ganglia even if you can't mentor them - I'll do some more of the administrivia stuff over the next couple of days (e.g. setting up a separate email list for mentors perhaps) - potential mentors please register on the google-melange site (link below) and ask to be linked to the Ganglia organisation - full calendar is here: http://www.google-melange.com/gsoc/events/google/gsoc2014 Regards, Daniel -- Flow-based real-time traffic analytics software.

These interfaces are loosely coupled and the student can work somewhat independently without us having to worry about merging their work. We could also reach out to related projects like rrdtool.

There is a jQuery package in Debian, but it is a slightly older version There are various issues that motivate these rules/policies in distributions: - disk space - security updates (better to just have one copy of X to update in one shot, hard to find multiple bundled copies of X and check they all have the latest/necessary security patches) - source - bundling any minified artifact is not consider to be real source code That said, given that every project seems to depend on a different version of jQuery, there is some leniency - Debian accepts bundled copies of some things like jQuery as long as they are not minified.

[Ganglia-developers] Google Summer of Code 2014?
We are nearly at the time when Google starts accepting applications from free software projects wanting to participate in GSoC The deal from Google is reasonably generous, they fully pay the student and they sometimes provide some help with other costs, e.g. they very generously helped Debian bring some of the students to DebConf in 2013. The big commitment from our side is that we need to (a) do the recruiting/selection and (b) do some mentoring. This obviously works out best for people who may already be recruiting anyway and they can use the program as a trial employment period or if there are things you really need done in the open source project and you have no other resources available and it is work that is suitable for a student. That said, in my experience with reviewing applications for both GSoC and Outreach Program for Women (a Gnome initiative) there are always a scattering of really good candidates who can work well and with minimal supervision. Having mentored two students last year I'd be happy to discuss this in more detail with anybody who may be interested. -- WatchGuard Dimension instantly turns raw network data into actionable security intelligence.

Just to clarify, this is the way it works on the branch: that doesn't mean it is the best way of doing it. The branch is there to experiment with the UUID concept and find the best solution for everybody. I won't merge the branch into trunk until there is some consensus about it Nonetheless, it ONLY puts the UUID in there if you have some other nodes sending UUID packets. If you don't enable UUID sending, you would never encounter this. I'd favor reserving 'HOST' for a hostname, and adding a 'UUID' field to the XML for UUIDs. Technically, a new attribute is better: but just remember, some people may be parsing the XML with other tools, and they might choke on a new, unknown attribute. There is no solution that pleases everybody.

Wouldn't the web UI then have to know which mode gmond is running in (and support either), or would gmetad normalize this somehow? gmetad doesn't really seem to care, it just sees the hostname or UUID as a string I didn't have to patch my gmetad or web at all to use this.

We have scripts running and custom graphs that are looping over all clusters and all LPARs, so we have a single graph for all LPARs in a CPU-pool.

However, testing the branch and suggesting how it could be useful to you is very welcome, e.g. if a new HOST/@UUID attribute appears, will that upset any script you use for XML parsing? Do you have some screen-Shots or a public instance, so we can see how this change is or is not user-visible in the webgui?

[Ganglia-developers] supporting the 3.3 branch
To ensure that the 3.3 branch is supportable throughout the lifecycle of Debian 7 (up to 2015/2016), I've done the following: - audit of all pointers to web - due to a lot of 3.3.x-x tags in web, I've created tags of my own, using the naming convention monitor-core/3.3.x - these tags match exactly with the actual 3.3 tags and releases - cherry-picked the security fixes from the 3.5.1 release onto the release/3.3 branch in web - update the monitor-core pointer to point at web 3.3.8 and release - any further security fixes for Debian can be made on the release/3.3 branch in both monitor-core and web projects as required - like most distributions, Debian does not accept any other feature changes/enhancements, but I doubt there will be any rush to backport such things onto the 3.3 branch -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

[Ganglia-developers] updating git user IDs
I've just added an authors.txt file to the git repo Can people please: a) find your user ID (or IDs) from Sourceforge b) put in your real name and preferred email address c) commit your change to the file There is no technical reason for authors.txt to be in the repo, I just thought this would be a convenient way to do this. I don't think git validates it in anyway, but I think it is convenient if each user is consistent, always using the same name/email. At some point later in the month, I will try to use the git-filter-branch method to amend the repo to contain the correct author details for all past commits. For anyone who has not updated the file, I will simply use one of the following: - the name/email you use in a recent github commit - if no github commits, the name/email you last used on the public email list -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

That depends. Are we still maintaining the 3.1.x tree? Traditionally we have kept with the current branch and one release branch before. For instance if current web is at 3.5 then we maintain that and 3.4. I remember that logic - but that doesn't really reflect what the distributions do Just backporting/cherry-picking the most essential security fixes to an old branch shouldn't be a big pain though I believe Kostas has already pushed out patches for 3.1.7 to Fedora/EPEL so in terms of distributed binary packages I guess we should be fine? Debian 6 also has 3.1.x - when this was mentioned before, I thought Kostas was updating the 3.1 branch and then the Debian and Fedora packages could all be built from the same tarball Kostas, could you possibly commit what you did onto the 3.1 branch and then I'll release a tarball?

That's not what distributions support - keep in mind, for many people, they only need something basic, they are happy to run apt-get or yum and get the package in 30 seconds, and that convenience is more important than new features - so they are not going to dedicate 30-60 minutes to downloading a tarball and working out what to do with it -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

[Ganglia-developers] git repo status

Re: [Ganglia-developers] [Ganglia-general] [SECURITY] [IMPORTANT] Security issue in Ganglia Web
I think we need to be clear about the support lifecycle for older versions - I remember 3.0.x was being supported for a while when 3.1.x was in use - I'm not sure if anyone has taken on 3.1.x support? Debian 6.0 (squeeze) is carrying the 3.1.7 package. http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=ganglia-webfrontend The Debian security team will accept a patch on that (e.g. a 3.1.8 release) - they won't accept other changes. For example, they won't push out a 3.5.1 package to Debian 6.0 users. Even when Debian 7.0 (wheezy) is released later this year, Debian 6.0 is still supported by security updates for 1 year. How do people feel about a 3.1.8 release? Is there anything else particularly urgent that should be cherry-picked for such a release? Do other distros need 3.1.8 too? Although 3.3.5 is listed on the page above, I'm going to push for 3.5.x to be included in Debian 7.0 - that means it will be around for 3 years from now. I think it is a good idea to have a branch for 3.5.x minor updates so that security fixes for Debian and other distros can be cherry-picked for such releases.

Either way, there is a point at which a piece of work takes on an

some project, as long as they respect the license of the project
founders (e.g. X.Org license files all credit the XFree86 contributors,
as it is an extension of their work)

As it is not my own work, it has no impact on me personally - but I do
think the people who have contributed deserve to be recognised
prominently, and as long as the license terms are 100% compatible, there
is nothing wrong with adding a whole list of extra names where it says
`The Regents of the University of California', s/Regents/Authors/
If nobody objects, we could:
- update the COPYING file to refer to the AUTHORS file
- s/Regents/Authors/
- git log | grep ^Author | sort -u AUTHORS (not sure if this is
sufficient to find all patches though)
- find all other copyrights (e.g. in Javascript and mention them in
COPYING), e.g. find . -type f -exec grep -Hi copyright '{}' \;

Just a few comments: - I think it may be good to have some (or maybe all?) modules as separate packages, especially if they are only for a single platform, as smaller packages are easier to release manage - the python modules seem to evolve faster than the C stuff, just as the web stuff has evolved quite a lot recently, Python code doesn't need any autotools integration either, so that stuff could also be a separate source tree, separate release cycles, etc - although I hammered together the gmond-linux package, 90% is other people's work, I believe I've done everything I can to credit people for that - but I'm also happy for other people to have commit access on that repository, Brad is also an admin there now and he can also grant access - given the correlation between Linux and Cygwin stuff, maybe ganglia-modules-linux can be renamed and can cover both platforms - or given the nature of git, it could be forked to create a ganglia-modules-cygwin? Most of the python modules are linux specific though, so would guess your comment was about native modules instead. The version in ganglia-modules-linux is based on the same code, with some small enhancements (using arrays instead of string comparisons) instead of having a forked version, why not make multi-cpu portable instead? and if you think your linux version is better, why not import it instead? I've also implemented the same for Solaris (see http://gmod-solaris.sourceforge.net) - there is little in common. In some ways I think the code is more readable if kept separate. I have no objection to contributing my mod_multicpu enhancements to the main project - the gmod-linux thing was started as a proof-of-concept for standalone module builds, I think it serves that purpose well and I only hope people use it as a starting point for similar activity. It should not be seen as something I made up because I don't want to contribute 100% to the main project: rather, it should be seen as a mark of respect for the modular architecture of the project. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Querying the underlying socket directly reports another value. I'm using apr-1.4.2 on Debian squeeze, which version do you have? Looking at APR's source it seems as if it only queries (on unix) if the option is set and not the actual value of the option: Great, thanks for confirming the root cause of this issue However, because we know there are issues with getting/setting the value through APR, your patch would also need to consider: - is there a minimum APR version required for the patch to work? Seems setting APR_SO_RCVBUF was added to APR in 2003 to version 0.9.4 I don't think we support 0.9.4 anyway, Ganglia refuses to compile with it, so no extra effort needed to document that - could you set the value, query the value, and if it hasn't accepted the value, try setting the value on the native socket? - or maybe just ignore the APR code completely and go directly to set the value on the native socket? Think to be safe I will just skip all the APR weirdness and use the native socket. Unless there might be portability issues with that? Exactly - we use APR to make Ganglia safer. So we should avoid building in too much native code stuff If an apr upstream fix comes quickly, then I suggest ganglia should not include the hack, it should use the proper apr call, and people who have such heavily loaded gmonds that they need this functionality should be told it is only supported on a recent Linux/apr version. However, given that the problem is quite severe and likely to exist in most current Linux distributions, maybe the current debug messages that I added should also log a warning (or even error) message if (a) the buffer size has been set manually and (b) a bad apr is detected (or querying the value returns 0) Maybe gmond should even refuse to start if the user has requested a bigger buffer and it is not supported? Then they are forced to find out what is going on and upgrade their apr. -- Live Security Virtual Conference Exclusive live event will cover all the ways today's security and threat landscape has changed and how IT managers can respond.

Re: [Ganglia-developers] gmond udp receive buffer errors
Hi Ramon,
Vladimir asked about similar errors on IRC recently
I thought buffer sizes may be an issue, so the 3.3.7 release candidate
has logging of RX buffer sizes (it is logged at debug level when gmond
starts). It may be interesting and helpful to compare those buffer
sizes, system defaults, etc, from your own systems and other people with
any similar problem. Looking at the log output should also show you
whether or not gmond is using the values you tried to set at a system level.
Regards,
Daniel

This is with gmond version 3.3.1, with a simple udp_receive_channel set

udp_recv_channel {

Hi,
While troubleshooting an other network issue, I enabled the
netstats.py module to report udp_rcvbufrerrors.
Ironically, it seems to me as if gmond itself is experiencing udp
receive buffer errors.
When I check out /proc/net/udp for drops, amongst other things I see:
sl local_address rem_address st tx_queue rx_queue tr tm-when
retrnsmt uid timeout inode ref pointer drops
51: :21DD : 07 : 00:
1030 72590718 2 8803a1a5d140 6676
It shows a 6676 dropcount for a socket with uid: 103
When I check out which process has this uid, it is gmond:
# ps -ef n | grep '103 '
103 7800 1 0 10:32 ?Ssl0:04 /usr/sbin/gmond
I have tried tweaking some sysctl settings, increasing rmem for udp
and increasing the max_udp_message_len in gmond.conf but there seems
to be no effect.
Is this possibly a bug, or am I missing something and doing it wrong? ;)
Cheers,
- Ramon.

There was a massive improvement but still was seeing some drops so I just decided to bump it up to 30M and it's even better although I still see occasional drops. If you have such a big buffer, then you could also have latency issues, as it suggests your CPU is just not able to process all the work in time You would either need to revise the workload (by splitting clusters, etc) or re-write gmond to be multithreaded (so it can use more cores) -- For Developers, A Lot Can Happen In A Second.
