[Bug 524447] Re: virsh save is very slow

2012-03-09 Thread Jeff Snider
I tested that other bug.  As far as I can tell it is not fixed.  I
haven't gotten any sort of response on it for a week.  So... now what?

Could somebody tell me if I tested that correctly or not?  I'd like to
get this either working or rolled back soon.  Thanks.

I'll go stand up some vms to test that one out.

[Bug 592010] Re: hardy2lucid upgrade: qemu-common should replace qemu as well as qemu-kvm / package qemu-common (not installed) failed to install/upgrade: trying to overwrite '/usr/share/qemu/keymaps/

2012-03-02 Thread Jeff Snider
Ok so I spent a while at this and it does not appear to be fixed to me.  I'm 
not really familiar with release upgrades so it might just be my unfamiliarity, 
if so someone with more understanding of what is going on will need to verify 
this instead.  Here's what I did.

I installed hardy server amd64, upgraded it, installed qemu and kvm and
made a snapshot of it.  From there I tried several different things,
rolling back each time.

1) do-release-upgrade.  Worked fine, resulting system had qemu and kvm
related packages installed normally.  I did see the error below in the
log.  This is the recommended way to do a release upgrade as far as I
understand it, so probably why this was not caught before now is that it
is just a warning in the log but the resulting system is fine.

Unpacking qemu-common (from 
.../qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17_all.deb) ...
dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled:
 trying to overwrite '/etc/qemu-ifup', which is also in package qemu 
0:0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17


2) add lucid-proposed to apt sources, pinned proposed/* at 400, 
proposed/qemu,qemu-common,qemu-kvm,kvm at 600, do-release-upgrade.  Same 
result, similar error in the log:

Unpacking qemu-common (from 
.../qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18_all.deb) ...
dpkg: warning: overriding problem because --force enabled:
 trying to overwrite '/etc/qemu-ifup', which is also in package qemu 
0:0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18


3) replaced apt sources with lucid, lucid-updates, update, dist-upgrade.  Fails 
with:

...
...
Unpacking qemu-common (from 
.../qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17_all.deb 
(--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/etc/qemu-ifup', which is also in package qemu 
0:0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17
...
...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.17_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


4) replaced apt sources with lucid, lucid-updates, lucid-proposed, pin as in 
#2, update, dist-upgrade.  Fails with:

...
...
Unpacking qemu-common (from 
.../qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing 
/var/cache/apt/archives/qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18_all.deb 
(--unpack):
 trying to overwrite '/etc/qemu-ifup', which is also in package qemu 
0:0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18
...
...
Errors were encountered while processing:
 /var/cache/apt/archives/qemu-common_0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.18_all.deb
E: Sub-process /usr/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)


The changed package in proposed does not appear to make any noticible 
difference unless I'm doing something wrong which, again, is entirely possible. 
 I'd appreciate some guidance here.

2011-07-27 Thread Jeff Snider
The page you referenced doesn't include anything that I can find about
the ticket priority level.  It states that Stable release updates will,
in general, only be issued in order to fix high-impact bugs and
provides several examples.  Among them is Bugs which do not fit under
above categories, [security vulnerabilities, severe regressions, or loss
of user data] but (1) have an obviously safe patch and (2) affect an
application rather than critical infrastructure packages (like X.org or
the kernel).

I submit that this is an obviously safe patch.  The change is small,
simple, isolated, has been tested to work, and doesn't change any
interfaces.  Is qemu-kvm considered a critical infrastructure package
or not?  I don't know the answer to that, but I can see valid arguments
both for and against.

I also have an example of a potential data loss situation, though it is
admittedly somewhat weak.  I'll spare everyone the narrative but I'll
share it if it would be helpful.

Tested 0.12.3+noroms-0ubuntu9.14 on Lucid amd64 with all available
updates.  Save speed is now approx 3 seconds for a 256Mb guest.  Tested
virsh with start, stop, save, restore, suspend, resume, shutdown,
destroy.  Tested guest with smp, virtio disk, virtio net, vnc display.
Everything worked as expected.

If there's more I can do, let me know.  Thanks!

Does #21 and #22 still need testing?

Ok, great!  Thanks for the quick response.  I did just now get finished
testing the packages you attached in #21 using my lucid box.  Saves of a
256Mb guest went from ~50 seconds to ~3.  So it does seem to fix the
issue.  I can set up a Maverick box if you need it tested there as well.

I checked for basic functionality with the packages you provided and the
basics seem to work, (virsh start, stop, restore, save. Guest disk, net,
vnc) but I didn't do much more.  How deep should I go testing for
regressions?
