What patch ? I'm interested ;)
So far, swim3 in 2.5 is not up-to-date to new BIO semantics in 2.5. I've wanted
to do that for some time now but didn't find time yet.

RH is almost certainly using seperate runtime and source packages for
the kernel. Looking at http://www.rpmfind.net/ I see things like:
kernel-2.4.20-2.6.i686.rpm
kernel-2.4.20-2.6.src.rpm
The first being the compiled kernel and modules, the latter the source
for it. So go find kernel-2.4.18-19.8.0.src.rpm, or even better upgrade
packages to a 2.4.20 kernel the current latest stable release.

How did you come to that conclusion?
sda1 is where the data is - when I mount the CF sda1 disappears
from /dev and accessing the mountpoint hangs the process.

Without comment on the specific proposal (which I haven't studied yet),
I do have a general request:
I would ask that we only change the policy syntax reluctantly and as
limited as possible, and only for strong need. Every time the language
changes, it can be a lot or little work for us to sync up our parser for
setools. Since we have a requirement to maintain backwards
compatibility with older policy syntax, each change can be a lot of
work.

To answer your other questions, I think you'd have better luck reading
the spec for the x86 pc-style PCI bridge chip, rather than the (generic)
PCI v2.0 spec itself. The spec for the actual chip is always the final
authority for what's going on. (Unless, of course, it's wrong...)

try a google search for
lvmgui [java] and lvmviewer[perl i think]
both were the a bit abandend the last time i tried them,
but hopefully they'll work with RH8
may be( just may be) another solution would be
the tools provided with mandrake (diskdrake) or eventualy
the EVMS GUI (see http://evms.sf.net )
if you find some other pointers, drop a line :)
by the way SuSE had a perfect text(ncurses) installer(manager) for lvm since
SuSE 6.4 (i think about a year or two ago)
a lot of Luck,

* Re: ipv6 stack seems to forget to send ACKs
From: Fabio Massimo Di Nitto @ 2003-01-08 18:05 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Wichert Akkerman; +Cc: netdev, linux-kernel
In-Reply-To: <20030108130850.GQ22951@wiggy.net>
I was able to reproduce the problem again. I have been using ethereal to
sniff instead of tcpdump and gave out some more info.
basically the icecast server at certain time (but i can't predict
exactly in which situations) just send a FIN, ACK packet to the client.
Basically to close the connection and after a few packets the client of
course answer.What is strange that in the meanwhile there are still 3/4
data packets coming from the server to the client.
Regarding the network side I noticed the following:
an average of 500ms to ping6 the server and 0 pkt loss
few seconds before the FIN, ACK (server->client) and for about 6 pkts the
average jumped to 2000ms
I suspect that this network flap made the server thinking about
<insert_here_whatever_term_is_more_appropriate> and decided to close
the connection.
The full ethereal dump is available at
http://www.fabbione.net/ice-xmms-ipv6.dump.bz2
but PLEASE note that it is a 10MB file and Im on a slow adsl line so be
"nice".
Fabio
PS Im afraid/happy that anyway the problem is not related to the kernel
version we are running.

I am partial to HTML Tidy for a few reasons:
1) cross-platform, reentrant C library
2) very forgiving of sloppy, malformed markup
3) produces clean markup - XHTML if requested
4) C++, Perl, Pascal, COM and .NET bindings available,
others easily done with SWIG
But I must admit, as one of the primary developers, I am probably
biased. But if you need to get your markup cleaned up so that you can
apply XML tools to it, it is probably the best game in town.

It certainly is not in /usr/src/linux (nautilus & terminal show that

anywhere else I have looked.
I have a default installation of RH 8.0, and through rhupdate, it has
updated the kernel to 2.4.18-19.8.0
I am trying to install patch-o-matic 20030107, and the script prompts me
for the KERNEL_DIR.
This is extremely frustrating, and any help is hugely appreciated!

As a general principle, any of those things could declare intent. In the
Lustre design we're talking about, I don't believe any of them does. Hence
my objection to the term "intent." Based on that word, I thought at first
I might just have missed something in the definition of the interface, but
I don't think so anymore.
>I don't
>really see where you can "change your mind" in the middle of creating a
>file, unless there was an error somewhere along the way.
I don't either. (And apparently, simple errors are no exception in the
Lustre design). Hence, you have declared significantly more than an intent
when you did the lookup.
>If you call
>sys_mkdir() you have declared an "intent" to create a directory
Not as "intent" is usually understood. If you call sys_mkdir(), you have
commanded the kernel to create the directory. That's a lot different from
declaring that you intend to create the directory.
I believe the lustre patch works. I also believe it uses the wrong
terminology, creates an interface to filesystem drivers that is brittle and
hard to understand, and doesn't solve as wide a range of problems as it
could. I believe that what it calls a declaration of intent is really a
declaration of what POSIX system call the caller is in the middle of
performing.
On the other hand, it has been pointed out that one of its goals was to
minimize the changes to fs/*.c. I agree the patch is a good way to achieve
that goal.
If it were my decision, I would solve the Lustre problem, and the Samba
problem, and some of my own as well, by putting higher level filesystem
driver interfaces into Linux, such as some other kernels do. Let the
filesystem driver do the whole "lookup, create directory, add directory
entry" operation if it wants to, and in that case make just that one call
to the filesystem driver and be done. Let the filesystem driver deal with
the problems of failures halfway through the sequence.
But suggestions I've made to give more power to filesystem drivers have in
the past met resistance from those who want to keep centralized control and
maintain uniformity among the various filesystem types).

Using Mandrake Cooker and nope - it sees the change
That's actually part of the symptoms - if I put the
same card back in, no problem. It's only if I use a
different card that it reboots.

* [linux-lvm] LVM2 snapshot creation problem
From: Gary Windham @ 2003-01-08 17:48 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: linux-lvm
I am testing LVM2 under the 2.4.20 (vanilla) kernel running on RedHat
8.0. I'm Using device-mapper0.96.07 and the userspace tools
LVM2.1.95.13 packages. I applied the device-mapper kernel patches
located at
http://people.sistina.com/~thornber/patches/2.4-stable/2.4.20/2.4.20-dm-2.tar.bz2.
My problem is that I have not been able to create LV snapshots under
LVM2. Here's an example (command and output follow):
===
# /lvm2/sbin/lvcreate -s -L 20g -n snap -v mytestvg/testlv
Setting chunksize to 16 sectors.
Finding volume group "mytestvg"
Creating logical volume snap
Archiving volume group "mytestvg" metadata.
Found volume group "mytestvg"

Creating volume group backup "/etc/lvm/backup/mytestvg"

===
The logical volume is then in an "INACTIVE destination" for my original
LV, and cannot be activated. All I can do is "lvremove" it.
Any advice would be most appreciated!

Richard,
The last time I tried installing the GNU Operating System without the
Linux Kernel, it wouldn't boot. Dont know why. I had my /bin/ls and my
/bin/make installed but they just wouldn't boot the computer.
I finally installed a Windows 98 kernel to help the GNU operating system
(i.e. ls and make) and now I can happily state that my computer is
running a GNU Operating System with a Windows 98 kernel.
Doesn't that sound silly ???????
Know why ? cos (Operating System == kernel), in this case, its Linux,
and the GNU stuff refers to the utilities only.
Mind you, they are VERY IMPORTANT utilities, but utilities nonetheless.
To call them an operating system is ridiculous, as I think I proved in
the earlier part of my mail.

* [PATCH][RESEND x 4] Don't ask about "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support" on some archs
From: Tom Rini @ 2003-01-08 17:53 UTC (permalink / raw)
To: Linus Torvalds; +Cc: Kernel Mailing List
The following patch adds an explicit no list of arches who do not want
to have the "Enhanced Real Time Clock Support" RTC driver asked. This
adds PPC32 (who for a long time had their own 'generic' RTC driver, and
then have adopted the genrtc driver) and PARISC (who have always used
the genrtc driver). Per request of Peter Chubb, IA64 is on this list as
well.
The problem is that on some archs there is no hope of this driver
working, and having it compiled into the kernel can cause many different
problems. On the other hand, there are some arches for whom that driver
does work, on some platforms. So having an explicit yes list would
result in some rather ugly statements.

To: 'Marius Groeger', 'cecilia.muaddi@alloptic.com'
Cc: 'linuxppc-embedded@lists.linuxppc.org'
I think Marius' problem and mine were generalizations
of the same issue -- there can't be *any* mappings in
the kernel with virtual address below 0xc0000000.
(This includes regions mapped 1-1 as a special case.)
I couldn't put the IMMR at 0x38000000; I moved it to
0xf0000000. Marius found that on-chip RAM was mapped
at 0x70000000; that was bad too. Also the CPLD on
my board which does LED control is mapped in at
0xf8000000 -- also above the 0xc0000000. So I am
skeptical when Cecilia says she has "some other IO
mapped to miscellaneous addresses". What are those
miscellaneous virtual addresses?
The difference, though, is that Marius & I both had
problems entering user mode. Cecilia's is just a few
lines from the top of head_8xx.S, without yet having
made any subroutine calls to anything more complicated.
There's not much room for anything to have gone wrong
yet, in the Linux kernel code. So I agree that getting
the vxWorks boot ROM out of the picture (e.g. using
PPCBoot instead) would be an interesting test.

vxWorks doesn't use the MMU as much as Linux does. On Linux, the kernel and
all processes run in their own address space. The memory accesses involved
for cache or tlb refills are quite different to what's happening in a
vxWorks setup. Again, I'm probably overly pessimistic here, but we _have_
seen HW problems that just didn't show up when running vxWorks (AFAIR it was
a burst access on some early G4 based system.)
On a related matter, the following might also be interesting, especially
regarding the question of what firmware to use. The vxWorks boot-loader
tends to initialise _a lot_ of things you don't necessarily need. For
instance, on IBM405 based systems it sets up the on-chip RAM at address
0x70000000. Not a good idea when switching to user-mode the first time. Took
me quite some time to find this one... ;-)

Somewhat similar vein, but a different set of symptoms, I've seen a

(USB SanDisk CF & SD reader, also using only CF cards.)
insert 128MB CF card.
everything is ok.
remove 128MB CF card, still see 128MB partition
insert 256MB CF card.
see 128MB partition.
