Note: This list is for Fedora CoreOS, not Container Linux, though
since it appears this is general Linux change it applies to both. The
Container Linux mailing list is
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/coreos-user but for things
like this that are possibly bugs the best place is
https://github.com/coreos/bugs. The Fedora CoreOS equivalent of
coreos/bugs is https://github.com/coreos/fedora-coreos-tracker.

Default Max Open File too high?
by domenico.viggiani＠gmail.com
Hi,
I'm having some issues with value of Max Open Files on CoreOS 2079.4.0:
# sudo cat /proc/sys/fs/nr_open
1073741816
It is "too high" compared to Linux usual value (1048576 ) and it causes some troubles ("unable to allocate file descriptor table") to some Java applications, similar to this:
https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8150460
Any suggestion?

There was a mail several months or so ago with this github Url, which we
used for the discussions:
https://github.com/thkukuk/atomic-updates_and_etc/blob/master/README.md
We also started to create an openSUSE specific wiki page:
https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Packaging_UsrEtc

We are still in the early state of adjusting the infrastructure/checks and
create PoCs. So it is still changeable if others want to join and come
up with a better alternative name for /usr/etc. But this really requires
a strong commitment to do the same, not that we change the paths and
still nobody follows with this.

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/UsrMove
=> /etc is a directory, not a symlink to /usr/etc.
We couldn't find any definition of UsrMove, where /etc is a symlink
to /usr/etc. Could be very well that somebody did it, but not by
definition.
More important was, that the absolut majority of people who gave
feedback wanted /usr/etc, and the acceptance by many users wass more
important than a few people where /etc is a symlink to /usr/etc.
If the majority does not like the path, they will not follow. So the
idea would be already fail on start.
And you can just remove the /etc symlink and make it an own directory
again, it should just work.
So we did not ignore it, but this sounded more like a theoretical
problem and not a real one.

Running systemd based docker service - permission issues
by Shivaram Mysore
Hello,
I have a simple service definition file - nginx-test.service and located in
user *core* home directory (/var/home/core) :
[Unit]
Description=This a basic Nginx service for a testing
After=docker.service
Requires=docker.service
[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target
[Service]
RestartSec=10
Restart=always
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/docker kill nginx-test
ExecStartPre=-/usr/bin/docker rm nginx-test
ExecStart=/usr/bin/docker run \
--name=nginx-test \
--network=host \
--volume=/var/home/core/nginx/config:/etc/nginx/conf \
--volume=/var/home/core/nginx/html:/usr/share/nginx/html \
nginx:1.17.2-alpine nginx -c /etc/nginx/conf/nginx.conf -g "daemon off;"
ExecStop=/usr/bin/docker stop nginx-test
This file is:
$ sudo cp nginx-test.service /etc/systemd/system/
$ sudo systemctl daemon-reload
$ sudo systemctl start nginx-test
$ pwd
/var/home/core
$ tree nginx
nginx
├── config
│ └── nginx.conf
└── html
└── index.html
This exact configuration works on my CoreOS AMI on AWS - which we use for
the last couple of years. But, it does not work with Fedora CoreOS on my
bare metal hardware. I even changed directory/file permissions on nginx
from core to root and still get the errors:
Aug 24 02:53:36 rhino docker[28805]: nginx-test
Aug 24 02:53:36 rhino systemd[1]: Started This a basic Nginx service for a

'exit-code'.
$ ls -l nginx/config/
total 4
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 3735 Aug 24 01:08 nginx.conf
Is there a new way to make this work?
Thanks & Regards

automated testing on EC2
by Kamil Paral
Hey folks,
it seems likely we'll have a new release criterion in Fedora QA soon,
roughly "Fedora must work on Amazon EC2". In our yesterday's meeting we
wondered whether your team has any automated testing that would be relevant
for us. I know you have an automated test suite that gets run regularly,
but do you run it just locally or in the clouds as well? Do you run it on
EC2? How often? There are different instance types in EC2, which ones do
you use? Can we access the test results somewhere, to have a look whether
everything looks ok-ish regarding our use case?
Thanks a lot.
