[opensuse-kernel] kernel SLE11_BRANCH
by Wolfgang Rosenauer 14 Jan '11

14 Jan '11

Hi, as part of project Evergreen we will have to release security updates for the Linux kernel shipped with 11.1 which is 2.6.27.x and apparently the branch SLE11_BRANCH of the kernel-source repo. So we would like to use this as a base to create packages. The question right now is what will happen with that branch from your side? Will someone touch it again once or is it just a dead branch for you? I'm just wondering if we should clone it or if the branch will be used still?

[opensuse-kernel] Slow umount in openSUSE 11.3
by Jan Kara 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

Hi, we have a report of slow umount behavior in openSUSE 11.3. Basically, the problem is that if umount is called while there is still big amount of dirty data against the filesystem, kernel goes on writing it but because of a bug in writeback code, the writes happen in synchronous mode and thus the throughput is disastrous. I actually have a reasonably non-intrusive patch fixing this (because SLERT 11 SP1 had the problem as well) but the patch changes kABI (struct writeback_control and some exported functions like writeback_inodes_sb()) and there's no reasonable way around that. So my question is: Shall we live with the bug or shall we break the kABI? I think the bug is anoying enough that the kABI breakage could be warranted but I'd like to hear others opinion on this... Honza PS: The patch is attached for convenience. -- Jan Kara <jack(a)suse.cz> SUSE Labs, CR

[opensuse-kernel] Custom kernel flavours
by EXTERNAL Konold Martin (Firma, RtP2/TEF72) 13 Jan '11

13 Jan '11

Hi, I am following the hints from http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-kernel/2010-07/msg00014.html in order to create a custom kernel. Using patches.addon with patches and a series file is a very nice feature in order to ease integration with upstream kernel srpms. I am now wondering if there is a similar mechanism for adding custom kernel flavours. E.g. something like a file which gets prepended to config.conf and package-descriptions etc. I already learned that I can place the configuration for the new flavour into config.addon.tar.bz2. My config.addon.tar.bz2 looks like drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2011-01-13 13:04 config.addon/ drwxr-xr-x root/root 0 2011-01-13 13:04 config.addon/i386/ -rw-r--r-- root/root 63963 2011-01-13 13:04 config.addon/i386/ccs -rw-r--r-- root/root 63963 2011-01-13 13:04 config.addon/i386/ccsws I also added my two new flavours to config.conf manually. I can then successfully create kernel-ccs.spec and kernel-ccsws.spec using ./mkspec. When trying to actually build the kernel flavours I get: rpmbuild -ba kernel-ccs.spec tar: config/i386/ccs: Not found in archive tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors To me this looks like config.add.tar.bz2 is actually not used as expected.

[opensuse-kernel] Unknown symbols for vboxsf kernel module
