Instrumenting kernel for boot time profiling
by Tom Heydt-Benjamin 20 Apr '05

20 Apr '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hey Folks! I followed with interest the "Boot Poster Challenge" thread from November. If I am correct, all of the profiling results that were demonstrated were done in userland by instrumenting the rc files and such. Has anyone experimented with instrumenting the kernel to try and get fine grained profiling data from the earliest parts of the boot process? I need to do this for some experiments that we are performing with power management of small mobile Linux devices, and before I re-invent the wheel, I want to know what wisdom is available on collecting timing data from the kernel starting early in the boot process. Sincerely Yours, ---Tom Heydt-Benjamin -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFCY8U8aLVgMs89qN8RAmxyAKDJJpDzObzCnl9s+ye2NGztKDZZjwCffGEt wlJ9oss23ZJGvqeYVKFfSG4= =cOsR -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----

Getting SRPM from Extras
by Kenneth Porter 20 Apr '05

20 Apr '05

What's the procedure for getting an SRPM from Fedora Extras? I need the openal-devel system for FC2. I see binaries for FC3 in Extras but it's not obvious how to get the matching SRPM. A pointer to the right wiki page would be welcome.

DMRaid in Fedora devel
by Mark Wormgoor 19 Apr '05

19 Apr '05

Hi, Attached are three patches that I made to get Fedora-devel to install on a bios sata raid-0 system (Sil 3112 on Abit AN7). It uses Heinz Mauelshagen's dmraid for detecting the disks. The first patch is against Anaconda. It removes the raid disks from the isys disklist and replaces them with the mapper device. The patch requires the full (not enable-mini) dmraid binary in the stage 2 image. I tested the patched Anaconda in install, upgrade and rescue mode (text and gui) and had no problems on my system. The second patch is against mkinitrd. It adds /sbin/dmraid.static to the initrd if necessary and updates the initscript. The /sbin/dmraid.static binary is not yet a part of the current dmraid rpm, so you need to provide your own. The third patch is against rc.sysinit so that dmraid.static is run at boot. Again, you need the full dmraid binary under /sbin/dmraid.static (not enable-mini) because the rc.sysinit script uses the testmode first before enabling the mapper devices. I now have a Fedora-devel system booting from my two raid-0 disks. Unfortunately, there is no bootloader for /dev/mapper devices. There is a patch against lilo to make it work on devmapper devices here (http://www.saout.de/misc/) and Eric Agsjö has a patch to make it work with raid-1 devices here (https://www.redhat.com/archives/ataraid-list/2004-October/msg00007.html). I am still using lilo under FC1 (using the medley.o module) and that works for me. I hope someone finds these patches useful; it would be very nice if FC4 would install on and boot from these bios ide raid devices without too much hacking. Kind regards, Mark Wormgoor -- *************************************************************** * |\ /| | /| / Mark Wormgoor * * | \ / | | / | / mailto:mark@wormgoor.com * * | \/ |ark |/ |/ormgoor http://www.wormgoor.com/mark/ * ***************************************************************

PHP: SNMP sanity check failed
by Brandon Keepers 19 Apr '05

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 When I try to rebuild the php-5.0.4-6 src RPM from rawhide on FC4test2 and RHEL 4, I get "SNMP sanity check failed". What I can't figure out is that it works fine on FC3. Here is the output of "rpmbuild --rebuild php-5.0.4-6.src.rpm": checking for SNMP support... yes, shared checking OpenSSL dir for SNMP... no checking for snmp_parse_oid in -lnetsnmp... no checking for init_snmp in -lnetsnmp... no configure: error: SNMP sanity check failed.

I have all the net-snmp packages installed FC4test2 $ rpm -qa | grep -i snmp net-snmp-libs-5.2.1-9 net-snmp-devel-5.2.1-9 net-snmp-5.2.1-9 Anyone have any ideas why this would fail on FC4test2 and RHEL?

pilot brokenness
by Thomas Zehetbauer 19 Apr '05

19 Apr '05

With FC3 I added the following line to /etc/udev/rules.d/10-local.rules: KERNEL="ttyUSB1",SYMLINK="pilot" Now that I moved to FC4 rawhide my /dev/pilot no longer gets assigned to the console owner unless I manually call pam_console_apply after connecting the device. I wonder how this is supposed to work, what is responsible for setting the ownership?
