Plugin API Enhancements: - Enablement checks have been extended to include architecture constraints. - SoSPredicate has been extended to include architecture constraints, as well as negative constraints for all elements. - Plugins will now capture service status information for all services defined in the services class attr. Further release information and tarballs are available at: - https://github.com/sosreport/sos/releases/tag/3.9.1 * Former patches now fixed upstream: - d/p/0001-unittest-py3-fix.patch - d/p/0002-lxd-drop-db-collection-and-introduce-lxd-buginfo.patch * Other specific modifications: - d/p/0001-lshw-command.patch - d/p/0002-lds-substitute-oidc-conf.patch ==> - d/p/0003-kvm-change-trigger-to-dev-kvm.patch <== ** Changed in: sosreport (Ubuntu Groovy) Status: In Progress => Fix Released ** Changed in: sosreport (Ubuntu Focal) Status: New => In Progress ** Changed in: sosreport (Ubuntu Focal) Assignee: (unassigned) => Eric Desrochers (slashd) ** Changed in: sosreport (Ubuntu Focal) Importance: Undecided => Medium -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of नेपाली भाषा समायोजकहरुको समूह, which is subscribed to Xenial.

Not only it's a waste of sosreport time, but running it inside a container may unintentionally reveal details from its host. Which is a undesired behaviour. Switching to /dev/kvm, is more appropriate and follow current standard as used by tool such as cpu-checker (kvm-ok) for instance. And taking benefit of this change to get rid of the check_enabled() overwrite in favour of using "files=" trigger. [Test Case] * Run sosreport inside a LXD container * The container will contain KVM information from its host (Iff its host as KVM installed) [Regression Potential] We only change the way the plugin gets triggered to use a most conventional way. If /dev/kvm exist, then exercise the kvm plugin. No regression expected, but worse case scenario, it will only be isolated and impact the KVM plugin to collect data properly as expected. It won't cause any harm to others plugins nor sosreport core functionalities itself. The commit went through some upstream Travis testing which used a shell script called "simple.sh" to verify sosreport collection. BTW, this same exact script is part of the sosreport autopkgtest, and will be run as part of the SRU to push this change.
