[opensuse-kernel] kernel 3.1 openSUSE 12.1/SLES SP2 : arp cache never decreasing - can block all network communications
by Bruno Friedmann 01 Feb '12

01 Feb '12

On a computer here setup years ago, we use the ip pass trough functionality of the router to get all the internet traffic directly on a network card setup with the external ip address. This has been work from years now, and if I restart the 12.1 with the older 11.4 kernel 2.6.37 it works too. Now what's happen, I get thousand of connection on that interface (dns behind) and the arp cache is full in terms of minutes I've already apply new values in sysctl.conf to have more time but it not a real working situation it seems on 3.1 some changes happened in the related code and here it seems to live a patch http://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/123208/ a simple ip neigh show | wc -l ARP : 2012-01-09 19:10:39 : 0 ARP : 2012-01-09 19:11:09 : 0 ARP : 2012-01-09 19:11:39 : 42 ARP : 2012-01-09 19:12:09 : 73 ...

[opensuse-kernel] no autofs (automount) after kernel update 3.2.1 (from 3.2.0) on openSUSE 11.4
by Dr. Ralf Czekalla 24 Jan '12

24 Jan '12

Greetings. Since I updated two of my test boxes to kernel 3.2.1 from 3.2.0, I can not use autofs any more. (both x86_64 and i586) I used this feature before (and still with the other openSUSE boxes running with kernel 3.2.0) to mount my private repository mirror via /net/<hostname>/srv/openSUSE-repository... and fetch the rpms in zypper via dir:///net/<hostname>/srv/openSUSE... in the repository definition. (I had to switch from nfs:// to dir:// here because of bug https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=710269 since kernel 2.6.39.) Now with kernel 3.2.1 I can not initiate the mount as used to by executing "cd /net/<hostname>" any more. Only an error message that the file or directory is not found comes back. But I can mount the nfs share manually from the host without a problem. I did not change the setup of /etc/auto.master since it worked in 3.2.0. The rcautofs is started without an error but the syslog offers the following lines during its startup: Jan 23 20:41:29 Grenada automount[8826]: open_lookup:90: cannot open lookup module hosts (/usr/lib64/autofs/lookup_hosts.so: undefined symbol: getnetconfig) Jan 23 20:41:29 Grenada automount[8826]: mount_autofs_indirect: failed to read map for /net Jan 23 20:41:29 Grenada automount[8826]: handle_mounts: mount of /net failed! Jan 23 20:41:29 Grenada automount[8826]: master_do_mount: failed to startup mount It seems to be problem with the lookup_hosts.so. Has anybody else the same problem with automount?

[opensuse-kernel] Strange automounter disconnections
by ariel sabiguero yawelak 20 Jan '12

20 Jan '12

Hi all. I have a very simple automounter configuration, everything works but sometimes, some mounts fails and I need to restart autofs service in order to get them back working. No logs on either server / clients. The distro is OpenSuSE 11.4. Similar configuration with former versions worked flawlessly. The auto.net map follows (*): homes 192.168.1.50:/varios/01/homes socios 192.168.1.50:/varios/01/samba/socios usuarios 192.168.1.50:/varios/01/samba/usuarios sistemas 192.168.1.50:/varios/01/samba/sistemas local 192.168.1.50:/usr/local The following is the /etc/exports file: /varios/01/samba/socios @maquinas(rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) /varios/01/homes @maquinas(rw,root_squash,sync,no_subtree_check) /varios/01/samba/usuarios @maquinas(rw,no_subtree_check) /varios/01/samba/sistemas @maquinas(rw,no_subtree_check) /usr/local @maquinas(ro,no_subtree_check) I worked-around the problem by installing a cron job running every minute. It checks all the shares and if any fails, it issues a rcautofs restart. Have anyone experienced a similar issue? Could you please provide any clue or way to better debug the problem. regards ariel (*) - initially I got unknown-host messages in the log file, thus, I changed the export from hostnames to IP addresses, but did not fixed the issue. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kernel] after upgrade from 11.2 to 12.1: disk io hog/starvation issue on HW Raid ext4
by rst＠suissimage.ch 19 Jan '12

19 Jan '12

Hi y'all, I've been directed here by the opensuse forums about a problem we are having with our server since we upgraded from opensuse 11.2 (kernel 2.6.31 I believe) to 12.1. The problem is that one process can hog all disk io and starves others. For example progress database restore of multi GB DB starves all others for example mysqld. We see latencies on fsync for mysqld of 15s + with cfq block io scheduler. Still 5s+ with deadline block io scheduler and read_expire reduced to 20ms. Been unable to reduce latency for other processes any further. Our guess to the culprit is that the improvement that was made in 2.6.37 for smp ext4 block io throughput (300-400% according to Linux 2 6 37 - Linux Kernel Newbies ) has made it possible for one process to be that fast and created this starvation problem. Or maybe some kernel bug. Anybody have any pointers about how to reign in disk-io hogs in 3.1? best regards remo Some info about the Server: Dell T710 with 2 Xeon 6 core procs, 48GB Memory. 6x300GB Disks in RAID10 on a H700 Raid Controller. We didn't mess with many default Suse Kernel values. Except swapiness, default blocksize of Tape Driver, Max Semaphore and Shared Memory Segment Values ( /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax shmmni shmall). And of course the ioscheduler as deadline scheduler makes the system less unusable... I'll gladly provide any other info y'all might need to help us improve this starvation issue. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+owner(a)opensuse.org
