| psusi | external media is mounted with the user and group of the logged in user, which works great for vfat and udf, but not ext[234]. I've been pondering the idea of patching the kernel to allow those options to work with ext[234] and override permissions on external media.. anyone have any thoughts about that? | 00:27 |
|---|---|---|
| psusi | mac seems to have an option you can toggle on its hfs+ disks to enable or disable permissions... seems handy for removable media | 00:27 |
| psusi | and shouldn't be too hard to implement | 00:28 |

| psusi | ebroder, well, the way it works with udf is that the on disk uid is -1 when you are the interactive user and it was mounted with uid=yourid, then if someone else mounts that disk, the -1 is turned into their id on read | 02:10 |
| psusi | a few years back I patched udf to accept additional options to give more control over it... originally it only applied the uid option as a default if it was already -1 on disk, if it was something else then it used that... I added options allowing you to specify that it should override any on disk id | 02:12 |
| ebroder | What happens if you mount a drive that has files with uid -1 without a forced uid? | 02:12 |
| psusi | you mean without the force option I added, or without any uid= option? | 02:13 |
| ebroder | Without any uid= option | 02:13 |
| psusi | then it is owned by -1 | 02:13 |
| psusi | err, wait, no | 02:13 |
| psusi | it's owned by root | 02:13 |
| psusi | yea... -1 on disk gets translated to 0 by default, or whatever you specify in the uid= mount option | 02:14 |
| ebroder | ok. so i coerce someone (or something) into mounting a filesystem with uid=me, make a file setuid, then coerce someone (or something) into mounting it without a uid= option | 02:14 |
| psusi | typically removable media is mounted with the nosuid option | 02:14 |
| psusi | and/or noexec | 02:14 |
| ebroder | do you know if, say, udisks does that? | 02:15 |
| psusi | yep, nosuid, nodev,uid and gid options | 02:16 |
| ebroder | and it looks like it doesn't allow the user to override with suid. that's good, at least | 02:16 |
| psusi | yea, the only problem is that the uid option is ignored except by vfat, ntfs, and udf ( and even with udf it is only used if the on disk id is -1, which it will be as long as you created the file mounted the same way ) | 02:21 |

| cjwatson | mathiaz: a workaround is easy - set SIGINT back to SIG_DFL on starting the daemon. as for the proper fix, I'm not sure. it would be helpful to start by stracing everything in sight to figure out what's actually ignoring SIGINT | 16:01 |
| cjwatson | (you will find that dpkg ignores SIGINT in the parent process while the child maintainer script is running, but that doesn't count - you want stuff actually on the path to forking erlang) | 16:02 |
| cjwatson | there's some suspicious code in apt | 16:02 |
| cjwatson | err, SIGHUP, not SIGINT | 16:02 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: is the signal even in the process signal mask? | 16:07 |
| mathiaz | Keybuk: SigIgn: 0000000000001007 | 16:07 |
| cjwatson | Keybuk: there's information in the bug ... | 16:07 |

| === jdstrand_ is now known as jdstrand | ||
| Keybuk | masking signals across a fork() is a common idiom | 16:08 |
| Keybuk | it's used when the signal handler has complex code, e.g. modifies lists of pids | 16:08 |
| cjwatson | sure, but it's ignoring stuff a la system(), not quite the same thing | 16:08 |
| Keybuk | otherwise you could interrupt the fork+record pid mechanism at a bad point | 16:08 |
| cjwatson | I know, but that's not what's happening | 16:08 |
| Keybuk | sure, it's probably someone picked up a "I must mask signals" meme without understanding it | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | /* Mask off sig int/quit. We do this because dpkg also does when | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | it forks scripts. What happens is that when you hit ctrl-c it sends | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | it to all processes in the group. Since dpkg ignores the signal | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | but they did it at the wrong point | 16:09 |
| cjwatson | it doesn't die but we do! So we must also ignore it */ | 16:09 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: I've tried to insert a 'trap true 1' in the couchdb shell script | 16:09 |

| cjwatson | mathiaz: well, if you've gone through the shell to figure out exactly how that's implemented ... | 16:10 |
| cjwatson | mathiaz: I meant calling sigaction in the daemon itself | 16:10 |
| cjwatson | I'm surprised that more daemons don't have this kind of problem, though | 16:10 |

| cjwatson | I mean do it inside whatever $command is | 16:11 |
| cjwatson | in couchdb itself | 16:12 |
| mathiaz | cjwatson: ok | 16:12 |
| cjwatson | or create a tiny C wrapper that does struct sigaction sa; memset (&sa, 0, sizeof sa); sa.sa_handler = SIG_DFL; sigemptyset (&sa.sa_mask); sa.sa_flags = 0; sigaction (SIGHUP, &sa, NULL); and then execs the program | 16:13 |
| cjwatson | this is just a crappy workaround though | 16:13 |

| psusi | Keybuk: I've been working with updating lvm2 to a new upstream release with --merge support and you wrote a patch to prevent opening disks for write access when activating to prevent a feedback loop where change causes activate causes open for write causes change... why does open for write cause change, and why do we activate all vgs on change, as opposed to just add? | 16:59 |
| Keybuk | open for write causes an inotify IN_CLOSE_WRITE on the block device | 17:00 |
| Keybuk | udevd listens for those, and will synthesise a "change" event for the block device | 17:00 |
| Keybuk | this means that if you create a lv, then run mke2fs on it | 17:00 |
| Keybuk | you get a "change" event | 17:00 |
| Keybuk | which means udevd will re-run blkid, and update the UUID/LABEL symlinks to the new filesystem | 17:00 |
| psusi | ahh... ok... that makes sense... but why vgchange -a y? | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | likewise, if the pv is inside an md, you have to activate vgs on "change" | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | because only a change of a md singifies it's ready | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | you may be confusing the "change" event of the lv with the "change" event of the block device containing the pv | 17:01 |
| psusi | ohh... when it's added it isn't yet actually readable? | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | correct | 17:01 |
| psusi | ahhh | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | add /dev/md0 - not ready | 17:01 |
| Keybuk | change /dev/md0 - ready, run vgchange -a -y | 17:02 |
| psusi | yea, only talking about change on the partition device used as pv | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | add /dev/dm0 - not ready (haven't yet made a filesystem in it) | 17:02 |
| cjwatson | psusi: only really interested in doing it for natty, sorry, yes, I meant that | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | mke2fs /dev/dm0 causes: | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | change /dev/dm0 - ready, symlinks to the e2fs filesystem now visible | 17:02 |

| Keybuk | so we can't make assumptions about the behaviour of the partition device used as a pv | 17:02 |
| psusi | Keybuk: got ya... | 17:02 |
| Keybuk | not all devices are ready on add, in fact, the majority of multiple-block-device devices *are not* ready on add | 17:02 |

| cjwatson | ebroder: I'd be inclined to suggest just putting it in debian/grub-pc.install.in, at least for the moment | 17:49 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: oh! it's i386-pc on both i386 and amd64, isn't it? i just realized i'm looking at i386-pc on my amd64 machine | 17:51 |
| slangasek | pitti, cjwatson, jdong: all the bits Linaro needs out of maverick-proposed are published to maverick-updates now, feel free to consider -proposed unfrozen | 17:51 |
| ebroder | cjwatson: that makes it easier. i should be able to write up a patch once i get back to my machine with all of my credentials | 17:53 |
| cjwatson | ebroder: yes, the "i386" there refers to the architecture of the boot loader objects | 17:55 |
| cjwatson | which are always 32-bit when built for the BIOS platform | 17:55 |
| RoAkSoAx | slangasek: howdy!! I was wondering if you had the time to review the library split for cluster-glue/pacemaker? | 17:55 |
| slangasek | RoAkSoAx: not at all yet, sorry :/ Hoping to get to it this evening | 17:57 |
| RoAkSoAx | slangasek: idon't worry abot it L:). Thanks though :) | 17:59 |

| bruteforce_allti | Hi, while on local systems(Lucid and Maverick ), I was able to build a package suffecssfully. But when I uploaded(ppa) it in respective series(Lucid and Maverick), all Lucid packages failed to build. While Maverick build successfully. | 18:25 |
| bruteforce_allti | Build Log http://launchpadlibrarian.net/58724370/buildlog_ubuntu-lucid-amd64.sugar-datastore-0.90_0.90.0-1ubuntu1_MANUALDEPWAIT.txt.gz and failed because of unsatisfied dependency. After installing, the following source dependencies are still unsatisfied: cdbs(inst 0.4.62+nmu1ubuntu9 ! >= wanted 0.4.75~) | 18:26 |
| bruteforce_allti | Can anyone please guide me how to solve this and explain why this error is occuring? | 18:27 |
| === bruteforce_allti is now known as neeraj | ||
| cjwatson | neeraj: you're asking (via Build-Depends) for a version of cdbs considerably newer than what's in luci | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | *lucid | 18:28 |
| cjwatson | you will need to figure out what's needing newer features of cdbs, and backport them to whatever is available in lucid | 18:29 |
| cjwatson | alternatively, perhaps there is a newer version of cdbs in some other PPA somewhere, in which case you can make your PPA depend on that | 18:29 |
| cjwatson | it's in the web UI | 18:29 |
| neeraj | cjwatson: ok. Thats what I thought. Was searching about latest cdbs available in lucid. And yes there is cdbs 0.4.82 present but in under sugarteam.(while lucid ones were inside sugar-test2). | 18:34 |
| neeraj | That cdbs 0.4.82 is in Lucid series | 18:36 |
| NCommander | cjwatson: ping, you don't happen to have a copy of the spice seed notes, would you, or know someonw ho does? | 18:54 |
| ogra_ac | NCommander, i thought i saw them in gobby today | 18:56 |
| ogra_ac | 8didnt open them though) | 18:56 |
| NCommander | ogra_ac: there's a doc there, but its empty | 18:56 |
| ogra_ac | ah | 18:56 |
| ogra_ac | then ask persia | 18:56 |
| ogra_ac | if he took the notes, he didnt take them in gobby | 18:57 |
| persia | I didn't take the notes of that session. | 18:57 |
| NCommander | ogra_ac: you see the problem :-) | 18:59 |
| NCommander | I'm going to have to listen to the audio and recreate them | 18:59 |
| NCommander | ogra_ac: BTW, did you review either of the specs I wrote (I sent you an email about that) | 18:59 |
| ogra_ac | NCommander, i couldnt get to any mail the last week | 18:59 |
| ogra_ac | plumbers had the worst network i have ever seen ... redhat needs an elmo ;) | 19:00 |
| NCommander | ogra_ac: obviously you forgot the internet connection in Holiday Inn, Berlin :-) | 19:01 |
| ogra_ac | that was still better | 19:02 |
| NCommander | Ouch | 19:02 |
| ebroder | SpamapS: i don't have my LP credentials with me - could you fix packageselection-server-n-upstart-server-enhancement to say that maintainer scripts should always use invoke-rc.d, and that there's an outstanding bug that that doesn't result in calling upstart jobs? | 19:11 |
| SpamapS | ebroder: Sure.. I was just dumping the gobby doc in. | 19:18 |

| SpamapS | hrm... | 19:23 |
| SpamapS | I am typing out work items and I think this one does need a full specification to explain the rationale.. :-P | 19:23 |
| psusi | Keybuk: a while back I patched ureadahead to use the tracer in pipe mode instead of log file mode, which eliminated the need for a large trace buffer. I see you have since lowered the size of the trace buffer to 8mb.. given that would you be interested in pipe mode? | 19:25 |

| tony_ | Hello, my external speakers did not work, but I tweaked with HDA-Analyzer and found that by unmuting two things (in Node[0x0c]) get my external speakers to work. But how can I make this change permanent? | 19:45 |
| tony_ | Because everytime I reboot I have to run HDA-Analyzer and change it again and again. | 19:45 |
| ScottK | tony_: Help is in #ubuntu. | 19:48 |
| tony_ | ScottK, noboy's answering and I thought it would be too a technical question so I asked here | 19:49 |
| ScottK | Lack of help in #ubuntu doesn't make it on topic here. Sorry. | 19:49 |
| cjwatson | NCommander: afraid I don't, sorry | 19:51 |

| Daniel0108 | hi | 20:01 |
| paddy_ | I created a key for launchpad with gpg --gen-key but i cannot find the file i give to launchpad, the key appears in seahorse though | 20:02 |
| SpamapS | paddy_: you'll want to export that public key to an ASCII armor format and upload it. | 20:04 |
| lifeless | SpamapS: err, not for launchpad | 20:05 |
| SpamapS | oh? | 20:05 |
| paddy_ | SpamapS, an .asc file, tried that, gave errror | 20:05 |
| paddy_ | lifeless, what do? | 20:05 |
| lifeless | https://launchpad.net/people/+me/+editpgpkeys | 20:06 |

| SpamapS | slangasek: ping, do you know if there is an existing place where the "best practices" for upstart in ubuntu are documented? I've googled for a few but maybe you have the definitive answer? | 20:29 |
| slangasek | SpamapS: what is it you want to practice? | 20:30 |
| slangasek | adding jobs to packages? | 20:30 |
| slangasek | there's no documentation for that - it should be documented by way of debian/ubuntu policy | 20:30 |
| === bjf[afk] is now known as bjf | ||
| SpamapS | specifically in "how to write an upstart job" and "how to manage upstart jobs" | 20:31 |
| ScottK | SpamapS: The best practice is ask Keybuk. | 20:31 |
| SpamapS | ScottK: ;) | 20:31 |
| SpamapS | slangasek: I went through your old IRC class and it had a few things in there that were somewhat non obvious.. stuff like that. | 20:32 |
| SpamapS | https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MeetingLogs/devweek1007/UpstartJobs | 20:33 |
| slangasek | SpamapS: yeah, there's work to be done around codifying and documenting this stuff | 20:33 |
| SpamapS | slangasek: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/packageselection-server-n-upstart-server-enhancement | 20:33 |
| SpamapS | slangasek: I'm hoping to do a lot of that work this cycle. :) | 20:34 |
| SpamapS | including documenting when this is a permanent thing, and when this is "only until upstart bug #x is fixed" | 20:34 |
| slangasek | SpamapS: if you were to take that meeting log and massage it into a wiki write-up, that would probably be a good start? And I'd be happy to review for you | 20:34 |
| SpamapS | slangasek: I intend to do just that. | 20:34 |
| SpamapS | I think the idea is to make sure we are simply documenting the use cases, and pointing to the man page for details. | 20:35 |
| SpamapS | Would it make sense to also try to add an EXAMPLES section to man 5 init? | 20:36 |
| slangasek | I have no strong opinion there | 20:36 |
| ScottK | SpamapS: I almost always love examples in man pages. | 20:38 |
| SpamapS | ScottK: agreed, that way it stays close to the software when changes are made. | 20:38 |
| ScottK | SpamapS: It's generally the first documentation I look at and so if it solves my problem, life is good. | 20:39 |
| SpamapS | ScottK: right, I think once people find man 5 init, they get a deeper understanding of upstart and cut out the hate, so much of this will serve to push people to that man page. | 20:42 |
| barry | SpamapS: okay, i've done all i can do for your mp on cheetah :) | 21:07 |

| RAOF | Urgh. Why does symbol visibility appear to be a compile time rather than link time decision? | 22:36 |
| syn-ack | That't the way it's always been, RAOF. I think it should be a link time option though | 22:42 |
| RAOF | syn-ack: It does make it somewhat more difficult to do what I want:) | 22:50 |

| bryceh | persia, is it still proper for people who want to become core dev to apply for motu first? There's a regular xorg contributor (now canonical employee) who is aiming to gain core-dev. Should he start by applying for MOTU or just shoot for core-dev directly? | 23:32 |
| syn-ack | good afternoon, SpamapS. | 23:34 |
| persia | bryceh, There's certainly no need to apply for MOTU prior to applying for core-dev. That said, the requirements for core-dev have become rather more strict than previously, as other options have become available. | 23:39 |
| persia | Depending on the breadth of packaging experience, it is often appropriate for candidates for core-dev to previously have been approved as some other sort of Ubuntu Developer, simply to show responsibility to the archive and skill in packaging. | 23:40 |
| persia | Depending on the prior work of this individual, another option would be to apply for upload rights to specific packages of interest (those that are considered part of X), or similar. | 23:41 |
| bryceh | persia, ok thanks | 23:52 |
