[Bug 601779] New: 32bit 'tree' doesn't show files 2GB and larger
by bugzilla_noreply＠novell.com 28 Apr '16

28 Apr '16

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=601779 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=601779#c0 Summary: 32bit 'tree' doesn't show files 2GB and larger Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.2 Version: Final Platform: x86 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.2 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: jc(a)ymmv.dk QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.9.1.9) Gecko/20100317 SUSE/3.5.9-0.1.1 Firefox/3.5.9 Hi On 32bit systems the 'tree' command dosn't show 'large' files. I have tested on a 64bit system as well, and the problem is only present on 32bit systems. I have done a fair amount of research, comparing compile-time arguments with those of 32bit Debian packages. In the end I think it comes down to the 'spec' file: In tree.spec the 'make' command is: %build make CFLAGS="$RPM_OPT_FLAGS" -which overrides the CFLAGS set in the Makefile: CFLAGS=-O2 -Wall -fomit-frame-pointer -DLINUX -D_LARGEFILE64_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -which results in the binary being built with these flags instead: RPM_OPT_FLAGS="-O2 -g -m32 -march=i586 -mtune=i686 -fmessage-length=0 -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fstack-protector -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables" Now; If I change the spec file so that; %build make -then the compiler gets the flags as set in the Makefile, and the resulting binary works with files larger than 2G. I'm guessing that it's desirable to get $RPM_OPT_FLAGS passed to the compiler, but I'm unsure as to how one would 'merge' this variable with $CFLAGS from the Makefile? As for the severity of the bug: It doesn't break the system, but the functionality of the command is seriously hampered by this. It seems reasonable (to me) that it's a packaging bug, and therefore it should be easily fixed. I have confirmation from the opensuse(a)opensuse.org list that the bug is present on 11.0, so it seems to be an 'old' problem... Kind Regards, Jon Clausen Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. get or create a file larger than 2GB I used 'dd' to create two files - one 2GB, one 1KB smaller: dd if=/dev/zero of=2G bs=1k count=2097152 dd if=/dev/zero of=2G-1k bs=1k count=2097151 2. use 'tree /path/to/large/file' 3. observe output Actual Results: output from 32bit system: jon@nx8220:~> ll tmp/largefiles/ total 4194304 -rw-r--r-- 1 jon users 2147483648 2010-04-30 12:50 2G -rw-r--r-- 1 jon users 2147482624 2010-04-30 12:52 2G-1k jon@nx8220:~> tree tmp/largefiles/ tmp/largefiles/ `-- 2G-1k 0 directories, 1 file Expected Results: output from 64bit system: jon@cnu8092slm:~> ll tmp/largefiles/ total 4194304 -rw-r--r-- 1 jon users 2147483648 2010-04-30 12:58 2G -rw-r--r-- 1 jon users 2147482624 2010-04-30 12:58 2G-1k jon@cnu8092slm:~> tree tmp/largefiles/ tmp/largefiles/ |-- 2G `-- 2G-1k 0 directories, 2 files AFAICT the flag that makes the difference is -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 - which makes the binary use *stat64() rather than *stat() when files are 'large'. On 64bit systems I suppose everything uses *stat64() anyways, which is why the problem only surfaces on 32bit systems... ? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

When you've got a path like: /dev/serial/by-id/usb-Silicon_Labs_CP2102_USB_to_UART_Bridge_Controller_0001-if00-port0 then it gets truncated and can't be used. Using the real device /dev/ttyUSB0 is not a good idea since udev may put this device on /dev/ttyUSB1 the next time. The buffer can be increased by setting #define PARS_VAL_LEN 196 in src/configsym.h (standard value is 64).

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=578053 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=578053#c0 Summary: postgresql-plperl looks for libperl.so in the wrong place Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Factory Platform: All OS/Version: openSUSE 11.3 Status: NEW Severity: Normal Priority: P5 - None Component: Other AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: eggyknap(a)gmail.com QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US) AppleWebKit/532.8 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/4.0.299.0 Safari/532.8 On a completely new openSUSE 11.3 machine, I installed the postgresql-server, postgresql, and postgresql-plperl packages. After starting PostgreSQL and letting it initialize a new database, I sudo-d to the postgres user, and tried to add the PL/Perl language, as follows, with the error below: postgres@linux-e16r:~> createlang plperl createlang: language installation failed: ERROR: could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/plperl.so": libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory libperl.so lives in /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i586-linux-thread-multi/CORE/libperl.so. Creating a symlink at /usr/lib/libperl.so to the installed libperl.so binary works around the problem. This also exists in at least one of the 10.x versions, though I don't have access to the servers to know the precise version(s) As a secondary note, the description of the postgresql-plperl package, at least as it appears in YaST2, says the package also includes PL/Tcl and PL/Python. This is incorrect. Thirdly, the documentation also claims "PostgreSQL also offers the builtin procedural language PL/SQL". This is also incorrect -- PL/SQL is an Oracle-specific language. PostgreSQL offers PL/pgSQL, which fact might be worth noting in the PL/Perl documentation, or it might not. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.install postgresql, postgresql-server, and postgresql-plperl 2.start postgresql (/etc/init.d/postgresql start) 3.become the postgres user (sudo su - postgres) 4.create the plperl language in the default database: createlang plperl Actual Results: # createlang plperl createlang: language installation failed: ERROR: could not load library "/usr/lib/postgresql/plperl.so": libperl.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Expected Results: createlang should have no output, and a 0 exit status I realize this is a packaging bug, and likely not something distributed by Novell directly. I saw nowhere else to file the bug. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

After entering the root password, YaST showed an error dialog: An error ccoured while initializing the software repository. Details: Try again? [Ja] [Nein] (= Yes / No) Yes, the line after "Details:" was really empty. Therefore this bug has two parts: - the missing information about details in the error dialog - maybe the failure itsself is also a bug The last lines from y2log when the error dialog was open: 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <1> geeko(26435) [zypp] RepoManager.cc(init_knownRepositories):557 end construct known repos 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <3> geeko(26435) [Pkg] Source_Create.cc(RepositoryAdd):449 alias openSUSE:Tools already exists [That's probably the disabled 11.1 version of the openSUSE:tools repo] 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <1> geeko(26435) [Pkg] OneClickInstallWorkerFunctions.ycp:113 Pkg Builtin called: SourceRefreshNow 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <3> geeko(26435) [Interpreter] OneClickInstallWorkerFunctions.ycp:113 Parameter 1 is nil, Integer is required 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <1> geeko(26435) [Pkg] OneClickInstallWorkerFunctions.ycp:116 Pkg Builtin called: LastError 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <1> geeko(26435) [ui] YPushButton.cc(setFunctionKey):183 Guessing button role YOKButton for YPushButton "Ja" at 0x18fb1b8 from function key F10 2009-10-29 15:48:16 <1> geeko(26435) [ui] YPushButton.cc(setFunctionKey):183 Guessing button role YCancelButton for YPushButton "Nein" at 0x198aac 8 from function key F9 The full y2logs are attached. Search for [cb] in y2log - I have marked when the error dialog popped up. BTW: After answering the dialog with yes (= try again) and confirming the repo details, the installation worked. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

[Bug 630434] New: Server refuses to boot, while used iSCSI based non "/" file system is not available.

http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630434 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=630434#c0 Summary: Server refuses to boot, while used iSCSI based non "/" file system is not available. Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.3 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: SLES 11 Status: NEW Severity: Critical Priority: P5 - None Component: Basesystem AssignedTo: bnc-team-screening(a)forge.provo.novell.com ReportedBy: DOlsson(a)WEB.de QAContact: qa(a)suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.6) Gecko/20100626 SUSE/3.6.6-1.1 Firefox/3.6.6 On our SLES 11 GM based "mirror" server (running as a virtual XEN guest), we are using iSCSI to attach to our NAS holding the "/data" file system, whereas all other file systems (/, /boot, /var, /home) are placed on local disk. When rebooting the server, it refuses to boot correctly, while it is not able to "fsck" the "/data" file system -- The system stops in "(repair filesystem) #" mode (after having entered the "root" password). Using the "nofail" option for the "/data" file system helps to get the system to reboot correctly, but in this case the "/data" file system is neither being checked nor mounted during the system startup, which therefore -- once again -- makes the system unusable! Using the "nofail" option is part of the "solution" listed in the SLES 11 SP1 documentation, but since the system is unusable, this is *not* the solution to the problem. The problem is that the "mkinitrd" is and the boot scripts are not capable of handling iSCSI attached file systems correctly. The correct way of handling iSCSI attached devices are: - All iSCSI devices having the "onboot" set as node startup setting must be attached during the "initrd" boot sequence (i.e. by "boot.open-iscsi") -- and this *independent* of whether the "/" (root) file system is attached via iSCSI or not, - All iSCSI devices having the "automatic" set as node startup setting need to be attached during the normal booting sequence (i.e. by "open-iscsi"), - All iSCSI devices having the "manual" set as node startup setting should be left alone. Using such a attaching schema will ensure that a server is capable of being booted with all its iSCSI file systems being attached, checked and mounted. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1a. Setup an iSCSI device and mount it e.g. as "/home" (no changes to "/etc/fstab"). 2a. Reboot the system 3a. System fails to boot, while "/home" is not available. 1b. Setup an iSCSI device and mount it e.g. as "/home", and add the "nofail" option in "/etc/fstab" to the "/home" mount point. 2b. Reboot system. 3b. System boots, but "/home" is neither checked nor mounted! Actual Results: When using iSCSI devices for non root file systems - the system is not able to boot, when the file system on the iSCSI device is listed in "/etc/fstab" as a file system that should be mounted or - the system boots boots, when the file system on the iSCSI device has been marked with "nofail" in "/etc/fstab", but the file is neither being checked nor it is being mounted. Expected Results: System boots with all file systems listed in "/etc/fstab" being checked and mounted independently of whether they are on local or iSCSI attached disks. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
