Hi, coders. Working with the Redhat team to incorporate
several of their patches into the main code.
At this moment, the Redhat team starts with 5.1.2 release,
then provide a number of patches. Some of those patches are
very specific build patches. Other patches are a wee bit out
of date. There are a number of patches that are very specific,
and therefore easy to assess.
Here are several brief descriptions of the patches that are
part of net-snmp-5.1.2-6.src.rpm. Many are also found in
older 5.1.2 based source RPMs as well.
Us - me, representing Net-SNMP project
Your - Phil Knirsch and Radek Vokal at RedHat
If one were to cut a 5.1.3 release, these patches would
not be needed:
net-snmp-5.0.6-syslog.patch IN 5.1.2
net-snmp-5.0.8-ipv6-sock-close.patch IN 5.1.2
net-snmp-5.0.9-smux-stack-var.patch APPLIED
net-snmp-5.1-xs-label-iid.patch APPLIED (modified)
net-snmp-5.1.1-hr_storage-mbuf-v2.patch APPLIED
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
The sensors patch causes some concern, probably not suitable for us
1. It modifies HOST-RESOURCES-MIBS -- did your team check with
the current author of this MIB to test the change's correctness?
The Net-SNMP project would be setting a bad example if it
incorporated an out-of-sync MIB.
2. Instead of adding the lm_sensors code which was ported from
UCD-V4 work, why not use the ucd-snmp/lmSensors
already installed (fixes applied to net-snmp CVS)?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
As noted, the ipv4-socks-close.patch should not be applied, since
the 5.1.2 base you now use already incorporated the fix.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.6-libtool.patch Thanks for adding verbiage from the
bug list on this one. Makes it easier for us to choose.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.6-compat.patch
This header change for UCD_COMPATIBLE seems overdue.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.6-syslog.patch This patch is already in net-snmp CVS
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.8-ipv6-sock-close.patch Already in net-snmp CVS
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.8-readonly.patch
This change to netsnmp_wrap_up_request fixing a problem with
processing RO vs RW objects (I'm not sure) was applied in a different
source location.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.9-HUP_doublefree.patch
The source currently handles this by commenting out
the netsnmp_handler_registration_free() call in netsnmp_register_old_api().
So, I would presume that it is no longer necessary ?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.0.9-smux-stack-var.patch
In/out var not preset... We will apply this one.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.1-hr_storage-mbuf-v2.patch
I've tested that Memory Buffers values appear when applied.
We will apply this one.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.1-ipAdEntIfIndex.patch
Will adding struct in_ifaddr break compiles on RedHat 7.2 ?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.1-pie.patch
"Men like pie!" What does "-pie" accomplish for linking ?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.1-quiet-memshared.patch
I would prefer wrapping using DEBUGMSGTL construct. Will Review.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.2-lelf.patch
We will need to make this elf test "if not Linux"
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1.2.rc1-agentx-little64.patch
Do you have a test that verifies this agent patch ?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1-64bit.patch
Interesting that some of the changes are HPUX11 specific...
What is the origin of this patch?
Regardless, this may take longer to segue.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1-async-getnext.patch
Do you have a test for this Perl module patch ?
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1-bsdcompat.patch
Removing SO_BSDCOMPAT should be done in both places used.
Patch does not address the code in snmpUDPIPv6Domain.c
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1-libwrap.patch
The places where USE_LIBWRAP is applied should be consolidated.
Patch does not address "like" code in snmptrapd.c
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
net-snmp-5.1-xs-label-iid.patch
This was recently applied in kind so that ALL results
of __get_label_iid are evaluated properly.
#-#-#-#-#-#-#-#
ucd-snmp-4.2.4.pre3-mnttab.patch
This will need to be made Linux specific
