disposable2in 20.04, am i supposed to start using nftables instead of iptables? i am pretty sure libvirt relies on iptables.06:30
disposable2for context - i would like to switch to nftables. just asking if virtualisation is ready for it.06:31
cpaelzerdisposable2: libvirt still depends on iptables06:45
cpaelzerdisposable2: the last bigger eval I've seen was around libvirt 5.1 (about a1.5y ago) and there nftables didn't support all features needed yet06:45
cpaelzerbut iptables is done using nftables these days (yeah - complexity) so since this v5.1 libvirt can deal with that06:46
cpaelzerdisposable2: thre are a few words about is in https://www.libvirt.org/news.html06:47
cpaelzerbut this particular change was mostly for firewalld+nftables of which the former isn't enabled anyway06:48
disposable2apart from libvirt, is there any other significant software in 20.04 that hasn't made a full transition to nftables? (i know lxd4.0 is fine with nftables)06:49
disposable2cpaelzer: thank you for the detailed answer06:49
cpaelzerdisposable2: reverse-depends --release=focal src:iptables is still rather long, but I'm unsure to what extend those might be iptabels|nftables kind of dependencies without looking further06:53
cpaelzerdisposable2: looking through the list ufw, firewalld and docker.io to name a few06:54
cpaelzerinterestingly systemd also depends on libip4tc2 which is part of iptables as well - not sure what it is used for thou06:56
disposable2cpaelzer: this is weird, firewalld is supposed to be able to use nft since version 0.6.0. but thank you. this reverse-depends is a truly magical command06:57
disposable2i would've normally used aptitude for that06:59
cpaelzer"aptitude why" can help why hings are on a local system, but I like the above for a global overview07:02
danshearerThere was a grub bug introduced in a security update yesterday, or thereabouts08:48
danshearerI looked through the irc logs for #ubuntu-server, #ubuntu-devel and others and didn't see reference to it08:49
danshearerI expect the right people are on to it, but here is a report08:49
danshearer https://askubuntu.com/questions/1263125/how-to-fix-a-grub-boot-error-symbol-grub-calloc-not-found08:49
danshearerIt probably affects all ubuntu and ubuntu spins; certainly server, desktop and mint.08:51
cpaelzerdanshearer: that is at https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/188950911:13
cpaelzerand yes people are on it11:13
ubottuLaunchpad bug 1889509 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "grub boot error : "symbol 'grub_calloc' not found" [Undecided,Confirmed]11:13
oerhekscpaelzer, actually i expected the message to reboot after the grub2 update, good thing i have not rebooted yet.11:20

rcjxnox: I have a question on your grub MP because I'm not familiar with the install_devices_empty case where we still break16:27
rcjhttps://code.launchpad.net/~xnox/grub/+git/grub/+merge/38838316:27
xnoxrcj:  install_devices_empty should never be reached, as it cc_groub_dpkg always sets a value.16:34
xnoxrcj:  install_devices_empty means "i chose not have package installed, but not actually install grub anywhere" which is fine non-interactively.16:34
xnoxbah16:34
xnoxrcj:  install_devices_empty means "i chose _to_ have package installed, but not actually install grub anywhere" which is fine non-interactively.16:34
xnoxbecause i want to have grub-install available to "rescue" other drives for example.16:35
xnoxrcj:  which ami did you boot on xenial to test this? i will have xenial built with that patch soon, and we can test things.16:35
rcjxnox: thanks for the explanation for the patch.  I booted Xenial in AWS (us-west-2 ami-060d1be0dd4526759 built on 20200611)16:54
rcjand I booted an m5.large or m5a.large instance so I have an nvme root16:55

aloiniI have been having some rather unfortunate issues with NFS crashing or hanging at the Kernel level, and am not sure how to further debug if: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3QXRD7DDNF/ - Would anyone be able to provide further support?18:57
aloiniWell, that was unexpected...19:01
aloiniSo just to re-ask... I have been having some rather unfortunate issues with NFS crashing or hanging at the Kernel level, and am not sure how to further debug if: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/3QXRD7DDNF/ - Would anyone be able to provide further support?19:01
RoyKI just wonder which module is tainted here19:02
RoyKhttps://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/admin-guide/tainted-kernels.html19:04
RoyKthe kernel or some module is non-gpl19:04
aloiniWell, I am running ZFS and that is predominantly where the NFS shares are being used.19:05
aloiniSo that is likely a cause19:06
RoyKprobably19:06
RoyKbut that hang isn't from ZFS as far as I can see19:06
RoyKwhih kernel/distro is this?19:07

matthias_archHello, I hope this channel can answer my DPDK question. I want to attach a dpdk pdump process to my running dpdk application, however I get the following error: EAL: Cannot initialize tailq: RTE_FIB (full error: https://bpa.st/DKYQ) I'm calling rte_pdump_init() after rte_eal_init() as done in the testpmd app. I get the same error when modifying the19:10
matthias_archl2fwd example for pdump.19:10
aloiniI am using a FUSE filesystem shared out via NFS as well, that could be it? But afaik FUSE is a part of the kernel now, and isn't non-standard.19:10
sarnoldaloini: oh that feels pretty plausible to me19:11
sarnoldthat'd be worth testing separately from zfs if you cant19:11
sarnolds/t$//19:11
aloiniI can easily stop sharing the zfs nfs exports. Nothing should be using them, they were mainly backups in case something else wasn't working.19:12
aloiniProblem is that it happens randomly, usually after 24 hours.19:12
aloiniYou asked for the full trace RoyK: https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/RY6RDM2gH3/19:28
RoyKaloini: no idea, but it looks like it's related to unicode or something19:42
RoyKaloini: erm - is this zfs-fuse?19:42
aloiniNo19:45

EmberCrestHey all! I have an HP ProLiant G7. It's connected to the net via Ethernet Port 1.21:23
EmberCrestHowever, I can't connect to this machine (nor from it) until I run this command:21:24
EmberCrestsudo dhclient -r eno0; sudo dhclient eno021:24
EmberCrestNot sure why the DHCP client isn't loading. but is there any log, or configuration that I should check as to why my connection isn't working after every startup?21:24
EmberCrest(Not sure that it isn't loading/starting, but that's my best guess based on the solution)21:25
tomreynEmberCrest: you didn't state which ubuntu release you're running, but all the supported ones other than 16.04 have journalctl -b21:35
tomreynon xenial (16.04) you'd look at syslog instead21:35
tomreynwhere configurations ar likle ystored also depends on your ubuntu release21:36
mwhudsontomreyn: xenial was the first lts with system fwiw21:43
mwhudson+d21:44
tomreynmwhudson: oh right, just not persistent journal, but journal21:56
mwhudsonah yes21:56
tomreynshoudn't matter here, though21:57
