Feature changed by: Dirk Mueller (dirkmueller) Feature #303793, revision 53 Title: Mount /var/run as tmpfs openSUSE-11.2: Rejected by Matthias Eckermann (mge1512) reject date: 2009-07-16 11:42:53 reject reason: Rejected on request of Engineering. Priority Requester: Mandatory Projectmanager: Important openSUSE-11.3: Evaluation Priority Requester: Mandatory Projectmanager: Mandatory Requested by: Kay Sievers (kay_sievers) Developer: (Novell) - Developer: (Novell) Description: /var/run should be mounted as tmpfs. This would avoid the cleaning of stale files or sockets on bootup and avoid atime updates of any mounted filesystems. This is required for eg powermanagement, which currently wakes up the system from any idle states for a socket operation. Services must be modified not to depend on a preexisting content in /var/run upon startup. RPMs must be modified to not place anything there. Discussion: #2: Federico Lucifredi (flucifredi) (2008-07-08 19:30:23) somehow SLES/SLED got out of sync here. Matching. #4: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2008-07-14 15:30:03) There are no resources for this feature. Please postpone, (as agreed with MgE) #5: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2008-07-14 15:46:55) Just as a side note this feature will require an effort of aprox. 1 week, together with #303810 (they averlap about 95%) #10: Arvin Schnell (aschnell) (2009-02-04 10:50:32) Any requirements on the size for the tmpfs or should the default of tmpfs be used? #11: Arvin Schnell (aschnell) (2009-02-05 19:27:03) (reply to #10) Kay replied by personal mail: Size doesn't matter. /var/lock should also be on tmpfs. #12: Duncan Mac-Vicar (dmacvicar) (2009-06-02 11:22:49) Christoph, please reject with openSUSE 11.2, because disk encryption we can't promise this feature for 11.2. It may get done as bonus if encryption gets done earlier than expected, but we can't commit to it (which is what rejection means, which does not mean we may work on it). It is the next thing we will work on after encryption support. + #32: Dirk Mueller (dirkmueller) (2010-04-26 12:08:04) + rpmlint check implemented (badness 900) -- openSUSE Feature: https://features.opensuse.org/303793
