Disabling /dev/fb0 on TW
by Thomas Zimmermann 23 Oct '24

23 Oct '24

tl;dr: Disable fbdev userspace interfaces on TW Hi, the upcoming Linux kernel v6.6 will contain the option to disable fbdev userspace interfaces in the kernel configuration. [1] I intent to enable this and thereby switch off /dev/fb0 et al. The tracker bug is boo#1212947. [2] * Why? The old fbdev subsystem is an endless source of bugs. For example, we recently had an out-of-bounds access in the fbdev emulation, where userspace could write beyond the end of the framebuffer memory. [3] Fbdev is under-maintained. I've been doing improvements in recent kernel releases, but only where it benefits the DRM subsystem. Disabling fbdev userspace interfaces will also help weeding out any programs that still contain hard dependencies on them. * What changes? Enabling the new kernel option disables all fbdev userspace interfaces. These are * the device files, such as /dev/fb0 * the sys files under /sys/class/graphics/fb[0-9]+ * /proc/fb * What are the effects on userspace programs? Userspace applications run on the desktop via Wayland or X. There will be no change to them. Xorg and Wayland compositors run on DRM interfaces. A few programs run on SDL, which has no dependency on fbdev either. Any fbdev support in these mid-layer components should be disabled as well. There's one known affected program: TW's text-mode installer can use the tool fbiterm to display CJK symbols during installation. This comes from a time when some low-end systems where not able to boot graphics installation. fbiterm has been unmaintained for >15 years and is ready for retirement. But there's no good drop-in replacement. I propose to simply remove fbiterm and let the graphics installer handle CJK. * What about the framebuffer console? The kernel-provided framebuffer console does not change. The kernel will still show the regular console. Userspace interfaces in /sys/class/graphics/fbcon are still available. For questions and discussion, please comment here or in boo#1212947.

Plan to delete vagrant & Virtualization:vagrant by the end of November
by Dan Čermák 18 Oct '24

18 Oct '24

Dear all, due to Hashicorp changing the license of vagrant to the BUSL, we can no longer update vagrant in openSUSE. I don't have the cycles to maintain vagrant myself indefinitely and plan to send a delete request at the end of November to Factory. Once that goes in, I also plan to remove the Virtualization:vagrant project to reduce the number of rubygems we have in openSUSE. If you don't like this plan and decide to scream at me, please scream an actionable plan that involves you :-) Cheers, Dan -- Dan Čermák <dcermak(a)suse.com> Software Engineer Development tools SUSE Software Solutions Germany GmbH Frankenstr. 146 90461 Nürnberg Germany www.suse.com Geschäftsführer: Ivo Totev, Andrew McDonald, Werner Knoblich (HRB 36809, AG Nürnberg)

Glitches in Plasma6
by Jogchum Reitsma 18 Aug '24

18 Aug '24

Hi, I've posted this messages March 18, but while I see it in the archive, apparently it did not make it to my mailbox- no idea how that is possible. I'll give it try here again, slightly modified: Some small glitches after doing the upgrade to plasma 6: -The icon of the program starter is covered by the icon some program sitting on the task bar. I did not find out yes what the "algorithm" is, but so far the only way to get the correct icon is to enter the Edit mode for the panel setting, and change something. But as soon as one hovers over a program on the task bar, that icon supersedes the correct icon again. The tab's from the open programs on the taskbar initially have their corresponding icon, but if one hovers over it, the icon disappears, and only the describing text remains. The small icons for e.g. bluetooth and sound on the right also disappear when hovering over it, and they have no text as such, so it is a bit a guess to find what you need there. But if one hovers over them, you do see the pop-ups of the application under the mouse.. But for the rest, well done for such a massive release, I would say. Thanks! regards, Jogchum

Maintainers are not currently able to update it to the current version. No transition method for expired keys. Temporarily disabling the key in libcontainer policy (Marcus please correct me). The goal is to have the least disruptive method for it. Dominique: the new key seems to raise some issues - transition needs to be figured out. Marcus: I did check podman documentation and am looking if we can have temporarily two keys in parallel. Marcus: will we resign all the images on the registry or only new ones? Dominique: for rpm we usually accept both old and new key for about a half a year. lkocman: Leap Micro 6.X update channel setup will have to be done soon (within a few weeks). ## Adrian - OBS No update lkocman: we need to cleanup accepted / rejected requests in SUSE:SLE-15-SP6:GA in OBS. lkocman doesn't have permissions to do so in OBS. Workaround would be to re-add/reject suse-sle-reviewers review. Lubos will write to autobuild + add Marco to the first line. ## Simon (Leap Replacement/Linarite) Not available ## Bernhard Slowroll * https://openqa.opensuse.org/group_overview/120 has regular runs now * kernel-longterm 6.6.21 from Factory * kernel-default follows Factory * OBS has a Slowroll distribution target, so it is easy to add in devel projects * https://www.reddit.com/r/openSUSE_Slowroll/ gets some activity ## Open Floor

Tumbleweed - Review of the week 2024/07
by Dominique Leuenberger 19 Jun '24

19 Jun '24

Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers, This week we have released 5 snapshots (0209, 0211, 0212, 0213, and 0214). With 5 snapshots, this is quite a normal week. The most relevant changes in those snapshots were: * SDL 2.30.0 * c-ares 1.26.0 (after a lengthy staging phase) * fwupd 1.9.13 * PostgreSQL 16.2 * Pulseaudio 17.0 * GTK 4.12.5 * Python 3.11.8 * KDE Frameworks 5.115.0 * RPM 4.19.1.1 * Node.JS 21.6.1 The list of things currently being tested remained largely unchanged: * Meson 1.3.2 * Shadow 4.14.5 * pkgconf 2.1.1 * RPM: enable reproducible builds by default (bsc#1148824). For upstream versions see: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpm/pull/2880 * A bunch of cleanup work to eliminate more of python2 (boo#1219306) * dbus-broker: a big step forward; upgrades seem to be an issue that needs to be addressed * libxml 2.12.x: slow progress * GCC 14: our usual 2-phase approach to introduce it. Currently working on phase 1, meaning GCC14 will be providing the base libraries (libgcc_s1, libstdc++…). The compiler itself will stay at version 13 for now. Only one issue left: qemu fails to build Cheers, Dominique

This response is even more confusing to me. I take this sentence fragment to mean "No, the first 'not' was not the typo, the second 'not' was the typo," which would mean the sentence should have been something like "and for now if you have GRUB2 you should not have sdbootutil [but instead have] dracut-pcr-signature" I don't know how to reconcile this with the earlier statement that the correct solution is the deinstallation of dracut-pcr-signature.

Development project for hosting sched-ext (Kernel:sched-ext?)
by Shung-Hsi Yu 14 Jun '24

14 Jun '24

Hi, sched-ext is a BPF extensible scheduler class that aims to make experimentation and exploration easier (among other goals). It currently live as out-of-tree Linux Kernel patchset[1], but has been either already in-use or considered by Valve, Meta/Oculus, and ChromOS[1]. Fredrik (Lönnegren) is currently working on it in home:flonnegren:sched-ext. While that works, it would certainly be nice to have its own project to host both the kernel and associated userspace[2] components. Given it is kernel-related, I naturally gravitates towards having a "Kernel:sched-ext" subproject and from there have Kernel:sched-ext:HEAD (akin to Kernel:HEAD) and Kernel:sched-ext:stable (akin to Kernel:stable). @Kernel project maintainers do you think that can be considered? Or perhaps something like devel:sched-ext if not under the Kernel project. It should be noted that there are opposition for merging sched-ext into the Linux Kernel[3], so it is unclear whether and when this project can eventually be deprecated. But in the mean time giving other a easier way to give sched-ext a try doesn't seem like a bad idea. Cheers, Shung-Hsi Yu 1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240501151312.635565-1-tj@kernel.org/ 2: https://github.com/sched-ext/scx 3: https://lwn.net/Articles/972710/
