[OpenIndiana-discuss] Openindiana under FreeBSD bhyve

[Martin Matuska]

Dear Openindiana developers and users,

I would like to run Openindiana under bhyve on FreeBSD.
https://wiki.freebsd.org/bhyve

OmniOS and SmartOS work well via CSM UEFI boot.

To load FreeBSD guest systems, an userboot.so binary is provided that is
being built as a part of the FreeBSD boot loader:
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd/tree/master/sys/boot/userboot

As I have seen Openindiana now uses a modified version of the FreeBSD
loader.

Do you think it would make sense to have a userboot that is capable of
loading Openindiana?

Thank you,
Martin Matuska
FreeBSD developer

[OpenIndiana-discuss] libarchive - Solaris ACL support

[Martin Matuska]

Dear Openindiana developers and users,

I have fixed compilation issues and finalized Solaris-style ACL support
(POSIX.1e and NFSv4) and added it to libarchive's master branch.
https://github.com/libarchive/libarchive

Libarchive stores ACLs in tar archives using the SCHILY.acl attributes
(SCHILY.acl.access, SCHILY.acl.default and SCHILY.acl.ace), in a
compatible way with the "star" archiver by Jörg Schilling.

ACLs that exactly mirror the mode (see acl_is_trivial_np() in FreeBSD)
are treated like no ACLs and are not stored (e.g if there is one
additional ACE or one of the trivial ACEs is modified the whole ACL is
stored).

I have tested building libarchive with the following dependencies:
developer/build/autoconf
developer/build/automake
developer/build/libtool
developer/build/pkg-config
developer/gcc-5
developer/gnu-binutils
library/lint
system/header

The ACL support will be included in libarchive 3.3 release. It would be
great to see bsdtar, bsdcpio and bsdcat packages for Openindiana.

We would appreciate any feedback at libarchive (testing, bugfixes, code
review, suggestions).

Thank you,
Martin Matuska

Hi alp!

Yes, they do:

$ pkg info SUNWutr
 Name: SUNWutr
  Summary: Sun Ray Core Services Configuration (root)
  Description: startup and service configuration files
 Category: System/Virtualization
State: Installed
Publisher: sunray
  Version: 4.5.0.0.44
Build Release: 5.11
   Branch: 0.0
   Packaging Date: Tue Apr 14 17:50:15 2015
 Size: 455.08 kB
 FMRI: pkg://sunray/SUNWutr@4.5.0.0.44,5.11-0.0:20150414T175015Z

(not the latest version :-)

As you can see, there is a separate publisher ("sunray").  Oracle ships
the complete repository, adds the publisher during software installation
and removes the publisher afterwards.

My guess is that they do this because it is not possible to "pkg update"
from one Sun Ray software version to the next.  However, you can find
and examine the repository inside the SRSS distribution.

Re: [OpenIndiana-discuss] OpenIndiana upgrade

[Thomas Wagner]

The missing link may be the every too often removed legacy package
name in a updated IPS package.
That way even SVR4 packages know about if an (IPS) package is 
present or not.

While developing one barely notice the missing legacy package names,
but "3rd"-party addons complain later.

Hi all,

does anyone knows what this process is used for: ecore_x_vsync?

I am using /hipster OI, MATE desktop and saw this:

And that is package "Enlightenment - Core libraries"?

What starts it? Anyone knows?

Do later SRSS versions come as IPS packages? When I installed it last 
time, they were still SVR4-packaged, so IPS wouldn't be aware of it...

Finally I could update my dev install to hipster ;)

The main problem seems to be that it is a SunRAY Server and the sunray packages 
need package  
service/network/dhcp. 
But this package is obsoleted on hipster and it seems that obsoleted packages 
can not install as incorporate.

Changing facetpkg-a change-facet facet.require.service/network/dhcp=false
# pkg change-facet facet.version-lock.service/network/dhcp=false
or
# pkg change-facet facet.require.service/network/dhcp=false
has no effect.

I solved the problem by 
- set non-sticky the openindiana.org publisher
- create a fake repo and publish there incorporation packages where dependency 
type is changed to optional, remove the obsoleted flag in dhcp package
# pkgrepo list -s /repos/fake-hipster/
PUBLISHER NAME O VERSION
fake-hipster consolidation/install/install-incorporation

0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20170111T153531Z

fake-hipster service/network/dhcp 0.5.11,5.11-0.151.1.9:20170106T113837Z
- add the fake-hipster repository to search before openindiana.org publisher
- at first replace (pkg update) the old incorporations with the old fake 
incorporation (optional dependencies)
- remove the fake repository
- do a normal upgrade to the latest hipster

I guess it would be better that packages not obsoleted but instead replaced 
(isc-dhcp).
