unfortunately I am not able to locate the multipath-tools-0.4.7-34.23.src.rpm (the download link on the - arguably cumbersome to navigate - novell site links to some 0.4.6 src.rpm, maybe I'm just to blind to navigate that site properly)
Is this SLES10 or SLES10SP1 we're speaking of? If SLES10, there should be a source-package on your SLES10 DVD (not the CD-ISO, only on the DVD image). In SLES10SP1 the source is extra, meanings you would have to download the image separate from Novell.
this is a regularly "online updated" SLES10. the originally supplied multipath-tools version was 0.4.6, for which also the sources are available.
I haven't looked if on SLES10 multipath is in the right Version, but I am downloading the source for SLES10 right now (thoug it will take about 8 Hours or so). I let you know as soon as I know more.
yes please. meanwhile, I think I can prove that the SLES10 multipath-tools-0.4.7-34.23 includes upstream [*] up to commit 57adc6a5d562eb1a309655f1b1be1040f0f9f732 but aparently not 8a9de22b049f332a574eead7fa738678397f47fc which means that the directio checker aparently reports path-down when io stalles for "only" 2 seconds, which may well happen on a busy device. btw, the 0.4.7-80 package available from opensuse 10.3 repo _does_ include the later commit (and some more). please, could someone from suse confirm? (hopefully this is still the correct list for this, for me, security includes all things affecting stability as well. also, the affected package aparently was a recommended (if not security) update for sles) [*] git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/storage/multipath-tools -- : Lars Ellenberg Tel +43-1-8178292-55 : : LINBIT Information Technologies GmbH Fax +43-1-8178292-82 : : Vivenotgasse 48, A-1120 Vienna/Europe http://www.linbit.com : --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-security+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-security+help@opensuse.org
