Bug#736384: openrc: does not umount filesystems during reboot/shutdown

2014-01-22 Thread heroxbd
Package: openrc
Version: 0.12.4+20131230-7
Severity: normal

Hey,

OpenRC does not umount filesystems cleanly. There is only one 
/etc/init.d/transit which calls
reboot/halt stop in start(), but umountfs, umountfsroot or umountnfs.sh are not 
handled at all.
They are not even in the shutdown runlevel:

$ rc-update | grep shutdown
killprocs | recovery shutdown
savecache |  shutdown
  transit |  shutdown

umountfs, etc. cannot be added to the default runlevel, so that it get "start" 
with no-op and get
stopped when leaving the runlevel. Because there are not enough dependency 
information in the LSB
headers of these scripts.

Therefore umountfs, etc. should be added to the shutdown runlevel. OpenRC needs 
to be patched so
that upon "start" action from OpenRC, actually "stop" action in the LSB script 
is executed.
Dependency tree of Required-Stop and Should-Stop also need to be handled (now 
ignored by
lsb2rcconf of OpenRC).

Or, alternatively, we could trick OpenRC into believing those scripts in 
shutdown runlevel are
"started" (or by actually starting them, they are no-op anyway) and let it 
issue "stop" to all of
them, in this case, no tweaking of the dependencies is needed.

Dear Marko,

Thank you very much for your support.

The packaging is mostly finished. We are working on the naming conflicts
of /sbin/rc (with plan 9 rc) and /sbin/runscript (with minicom) with
upstreams.

One important item on our TODO list is porting OpenRC to GNU/Hurd. Bill
Wang (freecnpro in the Cc list) had some unsuccessful trials last
month. Are you interested in it?

Bug#734371: lsb.pl not accessible?

2014-01-17 Thread heroxbd
Dear Klaus,

Thank you for trying OpenRC out on Debian and sorry for the trouble. 

The bug is strange and I could not reproduce it on a box of single /.

lsb.pl is used to convert from LSB init scripts to a set of shell
declarations that OpenRC could understand, which is crucial in the
second earliest boot stage of OpenRC.

The error message indicates that lsb.pl is not accessible from
/lib/rc/sh/gendepends.sh. Could you please paste the output of `dpkg
-L openrc`, especially the location of lsb.pl?

BTW, before the reboot, did openrc install well? If so, it has
"rc-update -u" executed in postinst, which calls lsb.pl without a
problem. I suspect /lib/rc/bin/lsb.pl is not yet mounted during early
boot. But given /lib/rc/sh/gendepends.sh, at least /lib/rc is mounted.
the source of the bug is out of my imagination now..

BTW++, the version 0.12.4+20131230-4 will soon be in the mirrors.

Cheers,
Benda

Bug#734371: perl is inside /usr/bin

2014-01-17 Thread heroxbd
Dear Klaus,

I figured out the cause: perl, by which lsb.pl is written, is inside
/usr.

Roger has expressed this concern before. I did not take it seriously at
that time. Now it bites us..

We should rewrite lsb.pl with POSIX shell or even C, or rely on
functions from insserv (which has a LSB parser) to get rid of this extra
dependency on perl. @Roger, is it easy to borrow the LSB parser from
insserv?

For the moment, you could have an ugly hack to copy a subsystem of perl
over /.

I have moved to casacore pkg repo under the umbrella of debian-astro

Would you like to merge the repos into it also?

Bug#739703: question about reverting

Dear Gabriele,

Thanks for trouble shooting it and glad to see that you found the
offending commit.

For your revertion of d0ce84fa4a74d2d in the git repo, could you please
explain how exactly the lsb-deps-on-"all" change caused this bug?

Instead of simply reverting it, I would like to understand the
underlying problem.

The lsb-deps-on-"all" trick does good to all other arches, so I want to
keep and refined it to let it work on Hurd, too.

2014-05-24 Thread heroxbd
Dear Ole Streicher,

Thank you very much for the initial work! I managed to clone out the
repo[1] before you decided to delete it.

We are packaging casacore 1.6.0 [2] basing on your work, under the
project of AireLinux[3], a working-in-progress debian-based distribution
for astrophysics initiated by Tsinghua Center for Astrophysics[4].

If you canceled the packaging for lacking of manpower, we sincerely ask
you to consider rejoining (or taking lead of) the effort. We have
talented astrophysics students with *nix system administration
experience getting recruited for packaging of the start-of-art
tools. Also, feel free to mentor and review our progress if your time is
limited.

Besides, casacore is in the gentoo official tree brought by the
gentoo-science team[5], from which many distribution-level patches could
be borrowed.

We are only a few steps away from the final upload. Let's give it a
kick, shall we?

Dear Guys,

Thanks a lot for the input from Marco d'Itri, Holger Levsen and Thomas

The topic of if OpenRC suits Debian is still controvasial. That's
understandable. Besides, even in Gentoo community, there is voice
doubting if OpenRC suits Gentoo.

Debian is about the freedom to choose.

I am aware of systemd, upstart, and our good plain sysv-rc as well as
file-rc. People in the last thread already debated about which is the
best for Debian. Personally I like the unix way[1] of OpenRC to do
things, and I want to let people understand my opinion by inviting
Debian users to use, evaluate and criticize it.

Cool jobs are done in Redhat community/enterprise, in Ubuntu
community/enterprise. Thanks to them we have many choices to suit our
needs. OpenRC from Gentoo community would like also serve as your
choice, with a different styple: just do one thing and do it right, not
about revolution to blow your mind.

Thanks Marco d'Itri, I have carefully reflected whether introducing
OpenRC to Debian really worth my time and effort. And I decided to do
so. 

Let's have fun guys ;)

Yours,
Benda

Bug#684396: openrc packaging status (Re: Survey answers part 3: systemd is not portable and what this means for our ports)

2013-07-15 Thread heroxbd
Dear Guys,

Holger Levsen  writes:

> one which is at least installable with apt-get + sid sources. that's
> still not the case, despite 684396 being announced here a year ago.

(Replying generally)

There seems to be some doubts concerning why #684396 has taken a whole
year without being finished. This fact is quoted by people to infer
OpenRC is not serious and not for production.

They are two things and should not be mixed. I am only going to respond
to the first question here.

On my side, I am offering to package OpenRC. I did not have a deep
understanding of Debian packaging and learnt as I went, although I
myself had been a user for 10 years. (My servers are Debian and Gentoo,
laptop/desktops are Debian.) I was not in a hurry. After composing a
wiki page[1] and having all my Debian boxes with OpenRC, I just spent a
bit more time to evaluate the solution by actually using it for my own
daily life and production. And yeah, it's partially because of laziness.
I haven't seen people ping this bug and thought there is not a wide
audience so I took my own pace.

I don't think we are in a race with systemd. It feels that people
developing or supporting systemd are competing against the world, as if
they can dominate the community by rolling out more modern features,
advancing fast enough, pushing others hard and finally rendering
everything alternative into the museum. This is a nice commercial
strategy and is more likely to succeed in competition. But I don't care
about it.

Things changed when it evolves into a GSoC project, where we have a
student actively working on it. It becomes my duty to co-mentor with
Thomas to realize the ITP. We are gaining momentum after the student,
Bill Wang, has digested the basics.

I can visualize that within two months we will have a off-the-shelf
OpenRC package working with initscripts/sysvinit vanilla offering modern
features like cgroups, at users' choice.

Voice from upstream, the OpenRC team is well aware of the effort and is
eager to take patches necessary to support Debian, provided it can both
benefit Debian and Gentoo, as is often the case when we come down to
this level of OS.

Relax fellows. let's see what we can get and have fun.

Benda

"enabled init.d scripts" in the same runlevel or all runlevels? Yeah,

Excuse me, I fail to see the validity of this example.

In, http://wiki.debian.org/LSBInitScripts,

,
| $all facility supported by insserv to start a script after all the
| other scripts, at the end of the boot sequence. This only work for
| start ordering, not stop ordering. It is not possible to depend on a

`

it is clearly said baz depending on bar is not possible.

> It is the reason why I recommend not using the $all dependency at all.

We have rc.local using it already. And we need to handle it. We can
manually map Require-Start to Should-Start in OpenRC, while I do still
think it should be written like that to be more logical. Anyway, we lose
nothing in insserv by making this change, do we?

> I assume systemd and upstart handle $all differently... :)

not sure ;)

Dear Petter,

According to LSBInitScripts page[1], there is a definition of
Should-Start being weak dependence along with a recommendation to be
used with virtual facility names (e.g. $all). Required-Start states that
a facility *must* be available.

$all only means for start ordering, which is a weak
dependence. Therefore using Should-Start instead of Required-Start is
more logical.

> Is OpenRC understanding it differently?  What problem will OpenRC
> users experience?

In OpenRC we developped a method globbing /etc/init.d/* to construct
$all, which results in /etc/init.d/README to be pulled in. A strong
dependence will fail if README is not a init script, while a weak one
will not.

Considering the logical arguments above, we think the most
straightforward fix would be replacing "Required-Start: $all" with
"Should-Start: $all".

Benda

Bug#761146: casacore-data uploaded to mentors.debian.net

2014-09-12 Thread heroxbd
Dear all,

I have adopted casacore-data from Gijs Molenaar's version and set up a
git repo at debian-astro @ alioth.

  https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-astro/packages/casacore-data.git

A built version is uploaded to mentors,

  http://mentors.debian.net/package/casacore-data
  
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/casacore-data/casacore-data_0+20140610-1.dsc

This package is needed by casacore at build (for test) and run time.
The main concern is the license.  Gijs has contacted upstream and was
told the data were released as LGPL.  It would be nice if the email
could be referred to.

Cheers,
Benda

Thank you.  I couldn't reproduce it on my amd64 box with linux-3.16-3.
The error message suggests a missing header of endian.h, which is in
libc6-dev:amd64: /usr/include/endian.h

libc6-dev is pulled in by build-essential and dkms.

It might turn out to be a bug of piuparts.  I will set up a working
piuparts to find it out.

Cheers,
Benda

I suppose it is because >=udev-208 assumes a systemd-driven log buffer
to write into.  Otherwise the log messages accumulate too fast at "info"
level, resulting in a timeout.

Bug#765785: remove the dangling rc.d links

2014-10-24 Thread heroxbd
Hi Adam,

Thank you for reporting the bug.

Removing the dangling links could be done manually:

 find -L /etc -type l   # to confirm the broken links to remove
 find -L /etc -type l -delete  # to remove them

OpenRC postint script should not exit with error in this case, though.

Interesting.  Gentoo has OpenRC well tested for arm(hf,el,eb) and
ppc(32,64).

http://packages.gentoo.org/package/sys-apps/openrc

I guess the build system could not recognize keywords like armel, armhf
or ppc64el.  Hmm, it fails with the unit tests, could be the loop solver
also.

Thomas, do you have time to take a look?  I don't have an account for
the porterboxes.

Best,

Bug#750559: another circular dependency

2014-10-02 Thread heroxbd
The following was what we had in a long IRC discussion.


This is another circular dependency caused by a difference between LSB
script and OpenRC counterpart:

LSB header defines Required-{Start,Stop}, but OpenRC has only one "need"
relation.

In this special case,

hwclock [Required-Stop $local_fs] umountfs
hwclock [X-Start-Before] checkroot
cryptdisks [X-Stop-After] umountfs
cryptdisks [Required-Start] checkroot

So by merging relations of start and stop during the interpretation from
LSB to OpenRC, as what we are doing now, introduces a circular
dependency.

hwclock uses> umountfs after> cryptdisks need> checkroot after> hwclock


hwclock is screwed by itself. It should be started before fsck, because
the latter needs a clock; It should be stoped before umount (from
$local_fs), because it needs to write the clock offset to local
disk. And $local_fs naturally depends on fsck.

Our present method of breaking dependency loops fails in cases like
this.

May I ask if you have time to test the set up again?  On Jan 27, we have
introduced an "off" runlevel, which handles umountfs better, so that
hwclock works by default.

This is kind of personal taste. Xorg metapackage is not clean enough.
