Most of the patches are pretty well-tested by<br /> now, as they are in the Debian[1] and Gentoo[2] packages, as well as my<br /> RPMs. Unfortunately, I haven't gotten around to writing that<br /> configuration patch we talked about yet though.<br /> http://daniel.hozac.com/vserver/util-vserver/ has them all, the file<br /> order contains the order in which to apply them (they're all against an<br /> original tree, so there are some conflicts between the patches).<br /> - bmask is described in patch #4968[3].<br /> - vcontext-uid is described in patch #4966[4].<br /> - vlogin is described in patch #4969[5].<br /> - delete does what you'd expect, patch #4899[6] and bug #12838[7].<br /> - fc5 adds FC5 as a valid distribution.<br /> - chcontext-secure is described in patch #4993[8].<br /> - shiny10 is an update to Herbert's most recent alternative syscall<br /> implementation[9], fixing at least the miscompilations of rpm-fake.so I<br /> saw on FC5.<br /> - man-chcontext-section is from the Debian package, and bug #16083[10].<br /> - apis is a fixes a typo and lets you specify olduts/oldproc in the<br /> --enable-apis= option.<br /> - clone-arch fixes clone so it works on SPARC and S390, bug #16158[11].<br /> - condrestart is the patch from bug #15678[12].<br /> - cpuset is a patch from a mailing list entry[13], only updated.<br /> - debootstrap-script is from the Debian package, adding support for some<br /> debootstrap feature.<br /> - namespace-cleanup was written by Bastian Blank. It moves the namespace<br /> cleanup to userspace.<br /> - nice makes sure the guest always gets a certain nice value, by default<br /> 0. Previously, restarting a guest from the inside (with reboot -f) would<br /> give the guest a niceness of -5 for all processes once it restarted.<br /> - prefix is sort of a hack to fix bug #15517[14].<br /> - remove-init-style-gentoo is from the Gentoo package, since it doesn't<br /> work anyway, I don't see the harm.<br /> - start-vservers fixes bugs #15632[15] and #14525[16].<br /> - usage fixes bug #15551[17].<br /> - chattr replaces the last chattr call with setattr, although I'm not<br /> sure if it's needed anymore.<br /> - pkgmgmt-vsomething is one of the less tested patches, but so far so<br /> good. It makes vapt-get and vrpm use vsomething like vyum does, as well<br /> as makes sure they all run the processes in the guest's network context.<br /> This issue was brought to my attention by a PLD patch[18].<br /> - cru-vps enables Cru's VPS repository by default for FC4, FC5 and<br /> CentOS4, which contains fake packages replacing things like the kernel<br /> and other unneeded packages.<br /> If you could check them out and maybe give some ACK/NAKs, that would be<br /> great.<br /> [1]<br /> ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/u/util-vserver/util-vserver_0.30.210-10.diff.gz<br /> [2]<br /> http://dev.croup.de/proj/gentoo-vps/browser/util-vserver/patches/0.30.210-r14<br /> [3] https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=4968<br /> [4] https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=4966<br /> [5] https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=4969<br /> [6] https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=4899<br /> [7] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=12838<br /> [8] https://savannah.nongnu.org/patch/?func=detailitem&item_id=4993<br /> [9] http://vserver.13thfloor.at/Experimental/SYSCALL/syscall_shiny10.h<br /> [10] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16083<br /> [11] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=16158<br /> [12] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15678<br /> [13] http://list.linux-vserver.org/archive/vserver/msg11505.html<br /> [14] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15517<br /> [15] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15632<br /> [16] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=14525<br /> [17] https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?func=detailitem&item_id=15551<br /> [18]<br /> http://cvs.pld-linux.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb/SOURCES/util-vserver-vrpm.patch?rev=1.1<br /> <pre> -- Daniel Hokka Zakrisson GPG id: 06723412 GPG fingerprint: A455 4DF3 990A 431F FECA 7947 6136 DDA2 0672 3412 _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list Vserver@list.linux-vserver.org http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver</pre> <span id="received"><span class="dfn">Received on</span> Sat Jul 8 14:57:04 2006</span> </div> <div class="foot"> * <span class="dfn">This message</span>: [ [[#start|Message body]] ] * <span class="dfn">Next message</span>: [[0140.html|Daniel W.
