[New: openFATE 312233] New Install Method

22 Apr '11

Feature added by: E. Mangini (C0ff33) Feature #312233, revision 1 Title: New Install Method openSUSE Distribution: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Desirable Requested by: E. Mangini (c0ff33) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Ability to install from a running system. With the 11.4 release, I was reminded again how stupid it is to require a shutdow to boot to cd/usb to watch files being copied unable to use my system. We should be able to start the install from a running system. This install should copy all needed files to specified partition(s), perform normal setup tasks, and add an entry to grub. Then -when I'm ready to reboot- I select the new install, which would do a first-boot completing whatever tasks could not be performed during the initial install. In addition to the obvious "I get to use my system" benefit, there are others. No more buring to cd or usb, just download and run an install file or , for example, openSuse 12.1 could be an option in yast. The install could be smarter, checking for and installing "favorite" apps (and their settings) or preventing the install of "taboo" apps are two simple examples. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/312233

[openFATE 303532] Reduce size of updates for openSUSE Factory

Feature changed by: Lars Vogdt (lrupp) Feature #303532, revision 36 Title: Reduce size of updates for openSUSE Factory - Buildservice: Evaluation by engineering manager + Buildservice: Rejected by Lars Vogdt (lrupp) + reject date: 2011-04-20 19:16:50 + reject reason: We already reduce the size of Factory updates by using + build compare. Milestone: 2.5 Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important openSUSE-11.0: Rejected by Stephan Kulow (coolo) reject date: 2008-06-06 09:06:29 reject reason: not really attached to a specific openSUSE version Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important openSUSE-11.1: Rejected by Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) reject date: 2008-11-06 16:10:03 reject reason: This is a build service feature, but no distribution feature. Priority Requester: Important Projectmanager: Important Requested by: Michael Löffler (michl19) Product Manager: (Novell) Project Manager: (Novell) Engineering Manager: (Novell) Technical Contact: (Novell) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Each update currently is around 2GB which is already much for broadband bandwith. For user with less bandwith it's by and large impossible to use Factory. Goal is to reduce size of updates and stay with frequent updates to offer latest software to the user. As we want more people using Factory it's usage needs to be conveniant. + References: + packages: obs-server Discussion: #1: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2008-03-27 16:48:43) According to discussions with Rudi and mls, the delta setup on dist need to be changed to also contain the rpm header and the deltas need to be indexed in a way that zypp will see them. So we can still use drpmsync for internal distribution and put the deltas only in instsource for mirrors. #2: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2008-04-22 13:28:56) This will happen automatically once the remaining parts of libzypp deltarpm handling are finished. We only need to agree on the format. I will propose something today. #3: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2008-05-26 17:09:31) ZYpp side is done. The only thing that needs to be done is to generate the deltarpm metadata in factory. I will post link to documentation and examples shortly. #7: Andreas Jaeger (a_jaeger) (2009-07-14 21:36:57) (reply to #3) What is the status of the Build Service side for this? #8: Adrian Schröter (adriansuse) (2009-09-15 16:42:11) (reply to #7) Partly implemented, the build-compare support exists, delta generation support is currently out of scope (if done on build host, it would need adaptions in backend parts. If done on extra(mirror) host, it would need to resign content, which breaks security concepts). #4: Gerald Pfeifer (geraldpfeifer) (2009-01-03 14:54:00) Opening this up for openSUSE.org. #5: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-01-16 08:24:42) ok, we discussed this a bit further. We plan to throw away builds that are equal to the previous build and publish deltas generated by the build clients if they are not equal. If a build is equal is to be defined, for now it's a shell script that checks various properties - and works acceptable for now. I rebuild a good portion of 11.1 without further changes and get 7345 binary rpms (including all subpackages). 5666 are considered equal by my current script (based on work by Michael Matz). And many of other packages are possible to fix, so they are equal too. So this gives for uneffected rebuilds a huge reduction of updates. The kernels and kmps are currently seen as !equal after an uneffected rebuild as they put the %release (rebuild counter) in many places. Not sure how much the script should work around such cases. But even for those the download size would reduce: kernel-default.i586 (with base and extra): 25.7MB to download deltas of it: 6.7MB (I think the kernel puts a lot of "rebuild on" info in the code) #6: Piotrek Juzwiak (benderbendingrodriguez) (2009-06-17 17:29:42) As an addition to that it would be great if the older package would stay until the second rebuild so that if something breaks we could go back to the previous version and report that something's wrong with the new one. #9: Lars Vogdt (lrupp) (2009-10-01 12:33:06) (reply to #6) Having backups is always a good idea. But as we've just limited space (internally and on our mirrors) I don't think that we can implement this. #10: Stephan Kulow (coolo) (2009-10-01 13:03:18) (reply to #9) download.o.o will keep the old versions alive and the mirrors only get the latest. #11: Ralph Ulrich (ulenrich) (2009-10-01 14:56:11) Why not a more differentiated factory scheme like Debian: - unstable - testing (less frequently changes) Something similar is implemented now using factory snapshots ? -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/303532

[openFATE 308626] Snapshot/Rollback interface to the ZYpp stack
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 20 Apr '11

20 Apr '11

Feature changed by: Juergen Weigert (jnweiger) Feature #308626, revision 44 Title: Snapshot/Rollback interface to the ZYpp stack openSUSE-11.3: Rejected by Gerald Pfeifer (geraldpfeifer) reject date: 2010-11-17 00:53:34 reject reason: openSUSE 11.3 has been released months ago. Priority Requester: Mandatory openSUSE-11.4: Evaluation by project manager Priority Requester: Important Info Provider: (Novell) Info Provider: (Novell) Info Provider: (Novell) Requested by: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) Product Manager: (Novell) Product Manager: (Novell) Project Manager: (Novell) Engineering Manager: (Novell) Engineering Manager: (Novell) Developer: (Novell) + Documentation Editor: (Novell) Technical Contact: (Novell) Technical Contact: (Novell) Technical Contact: (Novell) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Ability for libzypp and exposed via zypper to snapshot either automatically or explicitly the system before commit happens, plus an interface to revert the system. The interface should be generic and allow for different possible implementations which should be offered depending on the context: * btrfs based if /root is btrfs * simple based on package list before commit, plus package history and current package list to determine diff last transaction * two root partitions, where the interface would clone root filesystem before commit and switch them at rollback time. The feature includes the concept, and a working implementation with one or more of the strategies described before. References: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemRollbackWithBtrfs http://dev.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/filesystem-autou… http://wiki.rpath.com/wiki/Conary:conary_rollback packages: libzypp snapper zypper Relations: - grub1 patch for btrfs boot (url: ) Documentation Impact: Requires description of the functionality in zypper options Test Case: zypper install foo bar zypper rollback System should be as before the installation. Corner cases are not important. Use Case: Administrator installs a bunch of updates, which leaves the system in an an unworkable state. He types zypper rollback to undo the changes. Business case (Partner benefit): openSUSE.org: * Customer asked about snapshoting during our last meeting. * Feature parity with Solaris which is implementing package rollback based on ZFS * RHEL goes the same route, announced btrfs rollbacks in yum * We can do better, offering something more flexible and not btrfs dependent to support different scenarios: SLES (btrfs), Appliances (dual system partition), openSUSE (simple package list) Discussion: #1: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) (2010-03-05 07:29:41) PM: Important for 11.3. (sorry, on web client). #3: Joachim Werner (joachimwerner) (2010-04-28 18:10:50) I have SLEPOS-specific use cases for this feature, too. IBM implemented a similar rollback feature in IRES2, based on tripwire AFAIK. Some techical considerations we need to understand: Rolling back the right things What customers really want is not a dumb rollback of everything on the system to the old state, but just the changes done by the update. So it may be necessary to make sure the snapshot only applies to the configuration directories (usually /etc) and the code directories (/usr) affected by the update, but not things like logfiles (which should be continuous) or application data (nobody wants to get their database files rolled back by accident, or data a user has saved in /home/username in the meantime). Another potential issue with some applications is that they can be in an inconsistent state if they aren't stopped during a snapshot. This is a more generic problem with snapshots as such. For this Windows has mechanisms to inform an application that it's going to do a shadow copy now. In Linux there is no single interface to trigger that, although some databases and other applications have there own way of switching into a read-only snapshotting-safe mode. So, this is all doable, but just applying a system-wide snapshot seems to be too simple. Maybe we can just copy what Red Hat is doing here (if it's good enough). Red Hat has finished this feature in Fedora, and it's probably going to be in RHEL6 at some point, too. https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemRollbackWithBtrfs (https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/SystemRollbackWithBtrfs) contains a few considerations on this. Avoiding situations that can't be recovered zypper rollback sounds like a good plan at first, but it is not in all cases. If you apply an update that breaks the system, this could mean that a kernel update went wrong and you can't even boot beyond a certain stage. So there needs to be a way of entering the recovery from the earliest possible level, the boot prompt. There needs to be an option to boot into the snapshotted system, and from there eliminate the changes made after the snapshot and declare the snapshot to be the current state. For the worst case (a broken grub package or so kills the bootloader configuration) we need to have a recovery workflow (from CD or so) that can still bring back the old working state. Do one thing right, not three things that solve the same problem If we decide to go down the btrfs route (which I like) we should not also solve the same problem using several other approaches. Why use dual system partitions if you can have snapshots? #7: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2010-10-21 10:43:26) I would like to clarify some issues: For rollbacks, it would be the ideal situation to have the root filesystem completely under btrfs, otherwise you run into the problem that kernels are not affected by the rollback and this increases complexity. * a) For this we need to boot with btrfs. Matthias told me we should ignore this problem because under EFI you have to put the kernel under /efi in a FAT partition, but my own research tells me that what is in FAT /efi is the grub EFI program, and therefore the kernel could be in btrfs if the grub EFI program supports finding the kernel with btrfs. Can anyone confirm this? * b) For booting with btrfs we need either grub2, or syslinux or a patch for grub1 (added as a reference to the feature). Which route will we follow here? Do we have anyone empowered to make this decision soon? * c) if b) is solved with grub1 patch I suggest we open a feature entry to track that one. #9: Olaf Kirch (okir) (2010-10-22 12:56:49) (reply to #7) My preferred solution would be to enable grub1 for btrfs; it seems to pose the least risk - assuming the btrfs code is stable enough. (BTW either my fate client is too old, or the link you added is broken). #13: Gerald Pfeifer (geraldpfeifer) (2010-11-17 00:53:01) One further idea that came up is adding a bootloader entry (or several) that, when chosen, would revert the system into an old state as represented/described by that entry and boot into it. This is more involved than the more basic scenarios here and might be suitable for another, linked FATE? #15: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) (2011-03-25 21:02:37) (reply to #13) I like that. If at all possible, we should provide a boot item into the previous snapshot. #14: Jörg Schmela (herz-von-hessen) (2011-02-25 18:42:40) therefore my full Consent -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/308626

[openFATE 307736] Evaluate ABRT and use it instead of Apport
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 18 Apr '11

18 Apr '11

Feature changed by: David Nielsen (DavidNielsen) Feature #307736, revision 5 Title: Evaluate ABRT and use it instead of Apport openSUSE-11.3: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Important Requested by: Pavol Rusnak (prusnak) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: ABRT project seems to do the same thing as Apport, but seems better designed and thus is much more extensible. This allows to report crashes also from non C/C++ programs (e.g. Python), report to bugzilla/trac, upload crashes to FTP and so on. More info: * https://fedorahosted.org/abrt/wiki * http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/ABRT Discussion: #1: Jakub Rusinek (liviopl) (2009-12-06 23:07:26) ABRT catches Firefox crashes and automatically reports it. That's great. Especially, when you take a look and notice, that downstream Firefox doesn't usually report them and for this you need to use upstream one (which contains Mozilla Crash Reporter). I didn't see Apport anytime in action. Does it work at all? + #2: David Nielsen (davidnielsen) (2011-04-18 12:22:51) + I've used Apport for years on Ubuntu and it is now very well understood + and solid. The winning feature though is still the server side + retracing which is likely to be costly to implement for openSUSE. In + ABRT this retracing feature has only been implemented in the in + development F15 release and is still very young. -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/307736

[New: openFATE 311146] Verify static analysis reports by symbolic execution
by fate_noreply＠suse.de 16 Apr '11

16 Apr '11

Feature added by: Jiri Slaby (jirislaby) Feature #311146, revision 1 Title: Verify static analysis reports by symbolic execution Hackweek VI: Unconfirmed Priority Requester: Neutral Requested by: Jiri Slaby (jirislaby) Partner organization: openSUSE.org Description: Static analysis tools report many false positives caused by improper state tracking during the check. These false positives may be easily (at least I think so) pruned by running the symbolic execution on that. More concretely, let's try it with Stanse and Klee. Papers: J.C. King: Symbolic execution and program testing Engler et al.: Klee : Unassisted and automatic generation of high-coverage tests for complex systems programs Godefroid et al.: DART: Directed Automated Random Testing -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/311146
