Re: Xen support dead?

2021-02-07 Thread W. Michael Petullo
Another Xen-related bug that has continued through a number of releases
has to do with the interaction between Xen and SELinux. The SELinux
policy prevents xenstored from functioning.

See https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1720309.

I am glad to see movement on BZ #1858364, and I am happy to provide any
information necessary to fix this SELinux issue too.

Sorry I didn't see this bug report until Neal pointed it to me.

The problem was in the 20_linux_xen script as Marek mentioned. Could
you please test the proposed fix in bugzilla? I don't have a Xen setup
to test.

Best regards,
Javier

Actually, the buggy file (/etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen) belongs to the grub2
package, so the bug is assigned to a wrong package.


Not that it matters, but I'd  originally assigned it to grub.  It was ignored 
there as well.
I switched it to Xen after I was told in #irc to do so.

Too much pushing rocks uphill for my taste.  Building my own.

Actually, the buggy file (/etc/grub.d/20_linux_xen) belongs to the grub2
package, so the bug is assigned to a wrong package.

No. But the maintainer of Xen in Fedora doesn't pay attention to the
devel@ mailing list.

You can see it's actively maintained here:

One would hope that filed bugs would get addressed, then.

Xen support dead?

2021-02-05 Thread PGNet Dev

Hm.  Can't manage to get a fix, a reply, or interest.

Is Xen packaging/support abandoned for Fedora?

It's been reported/closed/ignored since, at least, F27 ~ 2017,

 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1515694
 https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1858364

, and still occurs in current F33.

Not clear where the fix _needs_ to be -- grub2 &/or Xen pkgs.  But sed 
workarounds are a non-starter for production.

Can appropriate devs help get this addressed?

If not, that's fine too -- but can we at least get a clear statement that 
Xen@Fedoras's not going to be maintained, so we can make other arrangements?
