Re: [arch-general] Open Source ati driver can't load GLX extension
Is there a possibility to add llvm to the dependencies of xf86-video-ati ? I'm having llvm in my ignorepackages and it doesn't get updated, so xf86-video-ati should not have been updated as far as I see. llvm is depency for mesa, and as we usually don't use versioned depencies for packages in Arch, as everything is expected to be updated and cherry picking is frowned uppon. So even if you have llvm in ignore list, packages that depend on it will still get updated, as they assume you also update llvm

[arch-general] bridge with netctl
Dear list,
I am running a machine hortensia with a container dahlia. As the
container will be a server, I want to have one IP for hortensia and
another one for dahlia.
On hortensia, with dhcpcd.service and systemd-networkd both disabled,
I start at boot two netctl profiles.
/etc/netctl/bridge-hortensia
Description=Bridge connection to container
Interface=br0
Connection=bridge
BindsToInterfaces=()
IP=no
/etc/netctl/static-hortensia
Description='hortensia static ethernet connection'
Interface=enp7s0
Connection=ethernet
IP=static
Address=('192.168.1.87/24')
Gateway=('192.168.1.254')
DNS=('192.168.1.254')
Then here is the result:
$ ip addr
2: enp7s0: BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 14:da:e9:b5:7a:88 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.1.87/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global enp7s0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::16da:e9ff:feb5:7a88/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
3: br0: BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue state

inet6 fe80::206d:8bff:feac:6e31/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
Two questions :
- is the command output correct for br0 ?
- all wiki said to bind bridge interface to my ethernet device
(enp7s0). But if I modified the /etc/netctl/bridge-hortensia this way
:
BindsToInterfaces=(enp7s0)
I have no working network on machine hortensia. Is this behavior correct ?
Now let's start the dahlia container
# systemd-nspawn --machine=dahlia --network-bridge=br0 -bD /dahlia'
On hortensia, now a new ip addr output, as supposed it shall be (vb-dahlia):
$ ip addr
2: enp7s0: BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP,LOWER_UP mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast
state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether 14:da:e9:b5:7a:88 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.1.87/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global enp7s0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
inet6 fe80::16da:e9ff:feb5:7a88/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
3: br0: NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue
state DOWN group default
link/ether 1a:2d:eb:58:8e:db brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 fe80::206d:8bff:feac:6e31/64 scope link
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
5: vb-dahlia: BROADCAST,MULTICAST mtu 1500 qdisc noop master br0
state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether 1a:2d:eb:58:8e:db brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
My issue is that br0 is DOWN and can't make it up with this command:
# ip link set dev br0 up
This has no effect.
Then, I can see NO-CARRIER in the br0 status. Is it the expected output ?
Why is br0 DOWN ? Why can't I bring it UP ?
All this leaves me with a broken network on the container dahlia:
$ ip addr
2: host0: NO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,ALLMULTI,NOTRAILERS,UP mtu
1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN group default qlen 1000
link/ether b2:25:69:eb:ea:a9 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet 192.168.1.94/24 brd 192.168.1.255 scope global host0
valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
host0 is DOWN with again NO-CARRIER
I have no idea what part of the setup is missing.
I run a custom kernel, so is there any wrong configuration on it ? The
kernel is moderately customized, but maybe did I disabled some needed
flag ?
Thank you for help.

2) If you want to add enp7s0 as a port, why do you have a configuration

traffic, so assigning it an IP is pointless.

Hi Arnaud. This doesn't seem right to me. The purpose of a bridge is to connect
several
interfaces together. Your bridge is not bound to any interfaces, so it's
effectively useless,
unless there's some special use of bridges I'm not familiar with.
Although I haven't played with containers much at all, I would expect it to
work in one of 2
ways:
1) Two new virtual interfaces are create: one that is visible to the container,
and one that is
visible to the host. The host now has two interfaces, which may be bridged, or
it may act
as a NAT router on the interface that goes to the container. The container only
sees the
one interface, and uses perfectly normal means to obtain an IP address.
2) No new interfaces are defined, and the host's interface is shared with the
container. In
this case, you will need to add another IP to the interface so that it'll
respond to both the
host's IP and the container's IP, and then either perform some kind of packet
filtering, or
simply ensure that the services on host and client are each configured to
respond only to
the desired IP.

Re: [arch-general] bridge with netctl
To say it out in a manner as straight as possible, you have to include every device that the bridge should have any effect on in your bridge. And if you still think a device doesn't go in there, I'd have to listen to your reason and read up if that is actually valid. No, include all those devices already and let us move on.

I think you should boot with an Arch Installer, then chroot and try to fix your system removing the package that has files on those directories, following the steps on the Arch news about this issue. An then update again. I think that this will solve your trouble.

I am not a fan of reinstalling only to fix the system, but you should update more frequently ;) Chroot into your system, then look into /bin, /sbin and /usr/sbin, there shouldnt be any files. You can try then pacman -S filesystem Good luck!

You can try then pacman -S filesystem Good luck! Where are these files from? Are they from some AUR packages? You can check this with pacman -Qo /path/to/file Do NOT remove then. If they are from AUR packages, remove them, update filesystem and then reinstall them. You could probably try to move them to /usr/bin and then update. You need the internet to download the new filesystem package. You could download it on another system, check the signature, copy it to the broken system and then install it with pacman -U /path/to/package You should know best, how to access the internet in your network. The livesystem only trys to dhcpcd, do you have WLan?
