Bug#1076242: Acknowledgement (ntpsec: degraded system due to ntpsec-systemd-netif.service failure)
On further investigation, races seem to be a well-known issue with path units: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/5770 This suggests that the implementation using path units is fundamentally flawed and cannot be fixed using systemd. The only simple way to tackle this Imcame up with is by having the script somehow start watching for changes itself while it runs. On filesystems with subsecond mtime resolution (which is likely true for /run as it usually uses tmpfs), this could be fixed by stat'ing /run/systemd/netif/leases when the script starts to run (e.g. stat +c%y), and then testing again at the end. if the mtime has changed, the script should loop (possibly with a a delay of a few seconds for busy systems).
Bug#1076242: ntpsec: degraded system due to ntpsec-systemd-netif.service failure
Package: ntpsec Version: 1.2.2+dfsg1-1+deb12u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? Pretty normal install of debian using syytemd, systemd-netweorkd and ntpsec on a rather slow arm board. The system is a dhcp client that obtains a lease during boot on the ethernet and wifi devices (total of two). Obtaining those two leases causes ntpsec-systemd-netif to fail, presumably due to being restarted too often: Jul 13 07:04:10 opz3 systemd[1]: Started ntpsec-systemd-netif.service. Jul 13 07:04:10 opz3 systemd[1]: ntpsec-systemd-netif.service: Deactivated successfully. Jul 13 07:04:11 opz3 systemd[1]: Started ntpsec-systemd-netif.service.

Jul 13 07:04:37 opz3 systemd[1]: ntpsec-systemd-netif.service: Failed with result 'start-limit-hit'. Jul 13 07:04:37 opz3 systemd[1]: Failed to start ntpsec-systemd-netif.service. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? Booted the system, expected no degraded system. * What was the outcome of this action? system degraded due to ntpsec-systemd-netif.service failed. * What outcome did you expect instead? No degraded system. I would suggest configuring much more lenient start limits if obtaining two leases is already too much for the current setup. Also, does the setup really work in the case of races (what happens when the unit is already running while another lease changes? Will it be started again after exiting?) In my case, I added an "ExecStartPre=sleep 5", which kind of works and avoids races in my setup, but that is not a reliable solution. It also reduces the number of invoxations during boot to two, which is a good indicator that the whole setup suffers from race conditions and is buggy because events are lost while the script runs.
Bug#1074564: initramfs-tools: fails to include config udevd config files
Package: initramfs-tools Version: 0.142 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, initramfs-tools packages andf uses systemd-udevd in the initramfs, but does not package the required .link files. Specifically, files and overrides from /etc are all missing, causing udevs to apply the hardcoded defaults when naming interfaces and applying other settings. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I have .link files and .link.d override directories in /etc/systemd/network. The generated initramfs contains the link files from /usr/lib/systemd/network/, but not the ones from etc., causing interfaces to be named wrongly. * What was the outcome of this action? E.g. when I have a /etc/systemd/network/99-default.link.d/50-namepolicy.conf file with: [Link] NamePolicy=keep kernel then some interfaces have the correct name and others don't after boot, depending on which drivers have been loaded. * What outcome did you expect instead? The system configuration should be respected and not overriden by hardcoded defaults in the initramfs. -- Package-specific info: -- initramfs sizes -rw--- 1 root root 50M Jun 9 11:10 /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-20-amd64 -rw--- 1 root root 50M Jun 11 09:31 /boot/initrd.img-6.1.0-21-amd64 -- /proc/cmdline BOOT_IMAGE=/vmlinuz-6.1.0-21-amd64 root=/dev/mapper/cryptroot ro rootflags=subvol=rootfs mitigations=off pcie_aspm.policy=powersupersave root=/dev/mapper/cryptroot relatime zswap.enabled=0 modprobe.blacklist=nouveau,nvidiafb ip=10.0.0.1::10.0.0.5:255.255.255.240:::off rd.luks=0 libata.allow_tpm=1 vsyscall=xonly nvidia-drm.modeset=1 raid0.default_layout=1 syscall.x32=y intel_iommu=on iommu=pt workqueue.power_efficient=1 cpu0_hotplug irqaffinity=16-23 i915.fastboot=1 i915.modeset=1 preempt=voluntary split_lock_detect=off -- /proc/filesystems f2fs ext3 ext2 ext4 btrfs vfat xfs fuseblk -- lsmod Module Size Used by tls 135168 0 nvidia_uvm 4669440 0 snd_seq_dummy 16384 0 snd_hrtimer16384 1 snd_seq90112 7 snd_seq_dummy rpcsec_gss_krb536864 0 nfsv41052672 1 dns_resolver 16384 1 nfsv4 nfs 516096 4 nfsv4 fscache 376832 1 nfs netfs 57344 1 fscache vboxnetadp 28672 0 vboxnetflt 32768 0 vboxdrv 602112 2 vboxnetadp,vboxnetflt cmac 16384 3 algif_hash 16384 1 algif_skcipher 16384 1 af_alg 36864 6 algif_hash,algif_skcipher bnep 28672 2 z3fold 32768 1 wacom 135168 0 nvme_fabrics 32768 0 bridge311296 0 stp16384 1 bridge llc16384 2 bridge,stp tcp_bbr20480 77 sch_fq 20480 1 cuse 16384 3 binfmt_misc24576 1 nls_ascii 16384 1 nls_cp437 20480 1 x86_pkg_temp_thermal20480 0 intel_powerclamp 20480 0 coretemp 20480 0 snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl16384 0 snd_sof_intel_hda_common 188416 1 snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl soundwire_intel49152 1 snd_sof_intel_hda_common soundwire_generic_allocation16384 1 soundwire_intel soundwire_cadence 40960 1 soundwire_intel snd_sof_intel_hda 20480 1 snd_sof_intel_hda_common snd_sof_pci24576 2 snd_sof_intel_hda_common,snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl snd_sof_xtensa_dsp 16384 1 snd_sof_intel_hda_common snd_sof 274432 2 snd_sof_pci,snd_sof_intel_hda_common snd_sof_utils 20480 1 snd_sof snd_soc_hdac_hda 24576 1 snd_sof_intel_hda_common kvm_intel 380928 0 snd_hda_ext_core 40960 2 snd_sof_intel_hda_common,snd_soc_hdac_hda snd_soc_acpi_intel_match81920 2 snd_sof_intel_hda_common,snd_sof_pci_intel_tgl snd_soc_acpi 16384 2 snd_soc_acpi_intel_match,snd_sof_intel_hda_common iwlmvm385024 0 snd_soc_core 352256 4 soundwire_intel,snd_sof,snd_sof_intel_hda_common,snd_soc_hdac_hda snd_compress 28672 1 snd_soc_core kvm 1142784 1 kvm_intel i915 3055616 2 snd_intel_dspcfg 36864 2 snd_sof,snd_sof_intel_hda_common uvcvideo 131072 0 snd_intel_sdw_acpi 20480 2 snd_sof_intel_hda_common,snd_intel_dspcfg btusb 69632 0 irqbypass 16384 1 kvm mac80211 1175552 1 iwlmvm nvidia_modeset 1363968 6 btrtl 28672 1 btusb videobuf2_vmalloc 20480 1 uvcvideo btbcm 24576 1 btusb videobuf2_memops 20480 1 videobuf2_vmalloc rapl 20480 0 libarc416384 1 mac80211 snd_hda_codec 184320 2 snd_soc_hdac_hda,snd_sof_intel_hda snd_usb_audio 376832 5 drm_buddy

Bug#1067228: linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64-unsigned: _major_ cpu performance degradation from 6.1
Package: linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64-unsigned Severity: important Dear Maintainer, Upgrading from bookroms 6.1 to 6.6 causes a major performance degradation. * What led up to the situation? I semi-regularly stress-test systems with linpack-xtreme-1.1.5-amd64 to see if there are thermal or stability problems. Typical output looks like this. The GFlops performance varies somewhat due to thermal issues, but is generally above 500 GFlops on this system: Size LDAAlign. Time(s)GFlops Residual Residual(norm) Check 22611 22611 4 15.171 508.0650 4.907015e-10 3.410840e-02 pass 22611 22611 4 14.935 516.0887 4.907015e-10 3.410840e-02 pass 22611 22611 4 14.978 514.6037 4.907015e-10 3.410840e-02 pass 22611 22611 4 15.260 505.0881 4.907015e-10 3.410840e-02 pass 22611 22611 4 14.669 525.4384 4.907015e-10 3.410840e-02 pass After upgrading from 6.1 to 6.6, I noticed some programs being surprisingly slow, so I run the stress test,a nd got output like this: Size LDAAlign. Time(s)GFlops Residual Residual(norm) Check 22611 22611 4 48.447 159.0972 5.357863e-10 3.724222e-02 pass As you can see, the performance is seriously degraded. Moreso, it is all over the place, sometimes it as 212 GFlops, sometimes only 44. This is on an i7-14700k, but it happens with another system using a 13700k in exactly the same way. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? After some investigation, I noticed that rapl shows a power usage of about 50W instead of the more expected 200+. Turned out thermald set a power limit of 65W. Thinking this to be some bug in thermald, I disabled it and restored the power limit(s) too 300W. Unfortunately, while this increased the power usage to almost 200W, it did not improve performance at all (normal cpu power suage for linpack is up to 275W). I then tried various other things, and found that booting the old 6.1 linux kernel fixed this problem completely. Not quite believing it, I built a special initrd with linpack inside, and found it happens in there too, that is, linux-6.6 is slow, erratic, and linux-6.1 performs as expected, and this is independent of any configuration or installed software. I tried booting with no kernel arguments as well to exclude any command line arguments being the culprit, and found the same performance degradation, leaving essentially only the kernel. (my default arguments include mitigations=off, so it's not caused by any mitigation either). I also tried this on another system with a 13700K cpu, and got exactly the same results - 6.1 works fine, 6.6 only reaches 10-50% of the performance, very erratically. I do notice that processes seem to jump around widely between cpus when this happens, but that might or might not be related. * What was the outcome of this action? I did downgrade to 6.1 on all affected systems. * What outcome did you expect instead? Obviously, 6.6 should perform more or less the same as 6.1. This might not be an issue with debians kernel, as I can find a few other, similar reports affecting manjaro and arch linux, e.g. https://forum.manjaro.org/t/linux-kernel-6-6-lts-cpu-regression-on-i7-alderlake/157474/30 *** End of the template - remove these template lines *** -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (990, 'stable-updates'), (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 6.1.0-18-amd64 (SMP w/28 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_USER, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64-unsigned depends on: ii initramfs-tools [linux-initramfs-tool] 0.142 ii kmod30+20221128-1 ii linux-base 4.9 Versions of packages linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64-unsigned recommends: ii apparmor 3.0.8-3 ii firmware-linux-free 20200122-1 Versions of packages linux-image-6.6.13+bpo-amd64-unsigned suggests: pn debian-kernel-handbook ii extlinux3:6.04~git20190206.bf6db5b4+dfsg1-3+b1 ii grub-efi-amd64 2.06-13+deb12u1 pn linux-doc-6.6

It's completely legal in debian to have this directorxy, and some software requires it - I cannot delete it without breaking other software. The bug here is clearly in rinse - /usr/etc is not a debian-mandated directory, so rinse must not rely on it being preesent or absent (see the debian filesysytem heirarchy standard for example).

Bug#1057480: e2fsprogs: -E mount_opts contradicting documentation
Package: e2fsprogs
Version: 1.47.0-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
tune2fs documents the -E switch as:
Extended options are comma separated, and may take an argu‐ ment using the
equals ('=') sign.
and the mount_opts sub-option:
mount_opts=mount_option_string
mount_option_string is an arbitrary string with a maximum length of 63
bytes...
The problem is that mount options are also comma-separated and tune2fs
does not seem to support this (instead assuming the comma separates
-E options), therefore, the string is not arbitrary, or at least, its
impossible to specify arbitrary contents, or, if it is possible, its
undocumented how to do so.
I don't know if this is a documentation problem or not, but it would be
nice if one could actually specify an arbitrary mount_option_string with
tune2fs.

Bug#1042411: rinse: wrong path to /etc directory
Package: rinse Version: 4.1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, when trying essntially an examp,e, rinse fials wioth a message like this: The package list for the distribution rocky-8 was not found. We expected to find: /usr/sbin/../etc/rocky-8.packages Aborting. I think the default path should be /etc/rinse, not /usr/sbin/../etc/, for two reasons: the files are obviously stored in /etc/rinse, and debian policy does not allow config files in /usr/etc (not would it allow assuming /usr/../etc is trhe same as /etc(.

Bug#1041360: partitionmanager calls btrfsck --repair causing data corruption
Package: partitionmanager Version: 22.12.3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, * What led up to the situation? I was trying to resize a btrfs partition. * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)? I saw partitionmanager invoke "btrfsck --repair" on the partition without asking. * What was the outcome of this action? I immediately killed partitionmanager, and still suffer from shock! :) * What outcome did you expect instead? btrfsck --repair is well known to corrupt data, and under no circumstances must a program run it without explicitly asking the user. Note the warning message that the program outputs: WARNING: Do not use --repair unless you are advised to do so by a developer or an experienced user, This is not an idle warning to be ignored. MAybe one day in the future, btrfsck --repair will be as useful as other fsck programs, but at this point in time, running btrfsck --repair almost invariably results in making things worse rather than better. -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.0 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (990, 'stable-updates'), (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 6.1.37-schmorp (SMP w/24 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_USER, TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages partitionmanager depends on: ii kio 5.103.0-1 ii libc6 2.36-9 ii libkf5configcore5 5.103.0-2 ii libkf5configgui5 5.103.0-2 ii libkf5configwidgets5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5coreaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5crash5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5dbusaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5i18n5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5jobwidgets5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiocore55.103.0-1 ii libkf5kiogui5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5widgetsaddons5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5windowsystem5 5.103.0-1 ii libkf5xmlgui5 5.103.0-1 ii libkpmcore12 22.12.3-1 ii libpolkit-qt5-1-1 0.114.0-2 ii libqt5core5a 5.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libqt5gui55.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libqt5widgets55.15.8+dfsg-11 ii libstdc++612.2.0-14 partitionmanager recommends no packages.

The reason is that the config file now enforces the usage of the outdated sftp-server subsystem, and this is not overridable. Please consider NOT enforcing a specific sftp implementation (going with the defaults and letting users override it in separate4 conf files), or, if it has to be done, make it easier to override it, or possibly default to the modern "internal-sftp" implementation which allows chroot (and thus provides better defense-in-dpeth in most cases).

Bug#1039705: mariadb-server-core: fails to start via systemd due to lacking permissions on /run
Package: mariadb-server-core Version: 1:10.11.3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, after upgrade to bookworm, mariadb no longer starts, because the socket directory /run/myysqld does not exist. this only happens when started via systemd. immediate reason is: install: cannot change owner and permissions of ‘/run/mysqld’: No such file or directory when started via sysv, the command line or some invoke tool, this works, because the start script runs as root. when started via system, the service is started as user mysql, which does npt have permissions. This seems to come form a file created during the upgrade called /etc/systemd/system/mariadb.service.d/migrated-from-my.cnf-settings.conf. The system had a "user=mysql" in mariadb.conf before the upgrade, so maybe this is where it is from. I don't think moving user= form mariadb to the systemd unit makes sense, as the user given to mariadb is the user the server changes to after initialisation, so moving it to the systemd unit breaks things (as is the case here). -- System Information: Debian Release: 12.0 APT prefers stable-security APT policy: (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 6.1.35-schmorp (SMP w/24 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_USER, TAINT_WARN, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages mariadb-server-core depends on: ii libc6 2.36-9 ii libcrypt1 1:4.4.33-2 ii libnuma12.0.16-1 ii libpcre2-8-010.42-1 ii libpmem11.12.1-2 ii libssl3 3.0.9-1 ii libstdc++6 12.2.0-14 ii libsystemd0 252.6-1 ii liburing2 2.3-3 ii mariadb-common 1:10.11.3-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.13.dfsg-1 mariadb-server-core recommends no packages. mariadb-server-core suggests no packages. -- no debconf information

Bug#1035486: dpkg: consider making FS_IOC_FIEMAP an option that cna be turned off
Package: dpkg Version: 1.20.12 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, on many of my systems using nvme drives or even sata ssds, the FS_IOC_FIEMAP scan that dpkg does is not only superfluous, but with a large number of packages installed, absolutely dominates the installation time (based on profiling) - essentially, dpkg does nothing else during the preparing/unpacxking/selecting steps. and while being a very useful optimisation for spinning rust drives, when installing many small packages, the scan is apparently done for every package unpack, when, again, on modern systems, everything is in the cache aftzer the first pass. could you consider making this scan optional (i.e. off-switchable via an option)? this way, users can disable it in dpkg.cfg on those systems where it matters, while still retaining it by default (I do not think trying to autodetect ssds is a good idea here, and a switch should be trivial to implement). thanks a lot for your consideration! PS: it might also be a good idea to reconsider the whole scan - fiemap often creates just as many seeks as a stat or an open, especially on more complicated filesystems. In fact, sorting by inode numbers (which are essentially free info) is often a good approximation for locality on many filesystems and might be a good replacement strategy. -- Package-specific info: System tainted due to merged-usr-via-aliased-dirs. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.7 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (990, 'stable-updates'), (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 6.1.27-schmorp (SMP w/24 CPU threads; PREEMPT) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_USER, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages dpkg depends on: ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.8-4 ii libc62.31-13+deb11u6 ii liblzma5 5.2.5-2.1~deb11u1 ii libselinux1 3.1-3 ii tar 1.34+dfsg-1 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.11.dfsg-2+deb11u2 dpkg recommends no packages.

Bug#1032615: please consider pcp over dool as replacement
Please do NOT consider dool as replacement for dstat, but pcp instead. The reasons are not only that pcp seems to be much more actively maintained, it is also vastly more compatible to dstat than dool. For example, dool uses an unreadable color palette (e.g. black text on black background) by default, and uses a very different default output format. pcp both works with the same terminals as dstat, and has a practically identical default output format, i.e. it is indistinguishable top dstat for most users out of the box. It would certainly be great to package dool, but since it does not seem to try to maintain bakcwards compatibility to dstat at all, it should not be the default replacement, instead it should be pcp, which, for existing dstat users, provides essentially the same experience. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

Bug#1022858: perl-base: lots of duplicate files between perl-modules-5.32 and perl-base
Package: perl-base Version: 5.32.1-4+deb11u2 Severity: minor X-Debbugs-Cc: report...@plan9.de Dear Maintainer, I recently installed a fresh bullseye and ran jdupes to deduplicate files. To my surprise, this reduced the installed size (on a zstd-compressed btrfs filesystem) from 2GB to 1.3GB. This was rather unexpected and I investigated. One of the larger reasons for this size reduction is a large number of relatively large files that are identical in perl-modules-5.32 and perl-base, random example: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1466 Sep 24 2021 /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl-base/unicore/lib/Lb/CL.pl -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1466 Sep 24 2021 /usr/share/perl/5.32.1/unicore/lib/Lb/CL.pl I wonder if thid duplication is intended, and if yes, maybe hardlinks should be used to save space. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.5 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-security'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-19-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU threads) Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages perl-base depends on: ii dpkg 1.20.12 ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u5 ii libcrypt1 1:4.4.18-4 perl-base recommends no packages.

Bug#1021365: wishlist: support same syntax for ipv6 addresse4s as other tools (RFC2291)
Package: nftables
Version: 0.9.8-3.1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
virtually all tools accepting ipv6 addresses use the format defined in RFC
4291 (IP Version 6 Addressing Architecture) section 2.2 (specifically form
3 is what I am talking about).
In fact, the only exception known to me is nftables, which defines its
own format ("Addresses are specified as a host name or as hexadecimal
halfwords separated by colons.").
This makes interoperability between other network tools and nftables
a hassle, as converting from standard IPv6 addressses toi the format
required by nft is quite hard to do e.g. in shell scripts.
I think it would be a very useful improvement if nft used the same IPv6
address format as other tools (in addition to hostnames, of course).

Bug#948108: closed by yokota (Re: unrar corrupts filenames given as arguments)
> Tags: wontfix Shocking. > This file name bug comes from conversion between wide char strings and > multi byte strings. Why would unrar even try to do such a thing for an archive filename on the command line? It would make sense if this had anything to do with the filenames stored in the archive, but that's not the case. > These encoding conversion has so many wired pitfalls, and there is no > trivial fix. This is simply false: since there is no need for any conversion, the fix is trivial, namely don't do any conversion. Your decision to close this bugreport is wrong, please reconsider. If you really don't know why the fix is trivial, here is how to do it: unrar gets a filename to open as archive on the command line. This filename is a C string in argv. All it has to do is to use this string in e.g. the open(2) syscall. No conversion is necessary, and any attempted conversion is simply a bug with a trivial fix. The proof for this is that basically every other command has no trouble with this. If unsure, try to look at how programs such as "cat", "zip" or "unzip" work, none of which have trouble with this. Seriously, I have no clue how you can make such extremely wrong claims as this being a conversion problem. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
Bug#998627: Please enable ntfs3 module, it does not conflict wiht anything
Hi! I was just stumblinmg over this bugreport, and must say I am surprised at the logic here - the ntfs3 module does not conflict with existing filesystem drivers (such as ntfs-3g), so existing systems shouldn't be negatively affected as they would continue to either fail to mount or use ntfs-3g, if installed. also, the logic of keeping it out is very flawed, namely that the feature is new. but the code in question existed for a long time outside the kernel, so arguing there might possibly, potentially, maybe be some problems in the code (that haven't surfaced in the half a year since the release) is very strange. while I appreciate that the kernel package maintainers try to keep dangerous or broken modules disabled, I think doing so based on zero actual evidence is going to far, especially given that other broken modules are enabled (e.g. ufs, which does get used by default and can eat ufs filesystems for breakfast). the only actual evidence so far is that there is no working fsck - well, the same argument could be used to keep btrfs out of debian. I would have understood this decision if the ntfs3 module conflicted with the existing ntfs or ntfs-3g drivers, but it doesn't. please reconsider your decision - thanks!

Bug#986591: attack of the hyphens
Package: fbreader
Version: 0.12.10dfsg2-4
Followup-For: Bug #986591
Dear Maintainer,
in my case, the bug is caused by pango's auto-hyphenation feature (which
was adeed and enabled by default, causing a lot of similar breakage in
other software), but the underlying cause is using uninitialised memory,
which is why it is happening randomly.
I fixed this by initialising the PangoAnalysis struct in
zlibrary/ui/src/gtk/view/ZLGtkPaintContext.cpp, in the constrcutor
(ZLGtkPaintContext::ZLGtkPaintContext), by adding:
myAnalysis = PangoAnalysis ({0});
This might be a problem elsewhere in the code, which I haven't
investigated, as with this fix, fbreader becomes usable again.

I know because I use kvm to see if the machine will actually boot (Cthus the different memory setup) and the kvm in bullseye has a bug that makes this very hard (remote display makes it freeze randomly), and I had to work around this bug, so I know it was not buster. > Looking at the upstream git log, I found > 206b70c837f29c8b34cb0d80ae496870550ec50c > which fixes https://gitlab.com/cryptsetup/cryptsetup/-/issues/488 which looks > really familiar :-) It looks very similar. It is not the message I got with -v, which specifically had the error number (3) in it somewhere, but maybe thats because it ran out of memory in a different place. I tried to recreate the conditions again (which was basically runnign kvm without -m option), but I can't get the kernel to boot with the default memory, and the minimum amount I got it to boot with was 256MB, at which cryptsetup was able to open the volume. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

Not sure what this extra information has to do with the problem I reported - the problem is that the oom error is not reported unless -v is used, which has nothing to do with the oom killer or how much memory was needed - cryptsetup surely had reasons to use a lot of memory, but it should report an error if it can, as opposed to silently fail to do its job. > Also did you run luksFormat on that same machine (and didn't remove > memory sticks afterwards)? There was _significantly_ less memory in the machine at the time of the problem. I think you are likely confused about the nature of the problem I reported - the problem is not that cryptsetup used too much memory. The problem is that it only reported it when using an extra option, as opposed to reporting it when it hit the issue. cryptsetup was not killed by the oom killer, so it should have had no problems reporting the result of some failed allocation. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
Bug#996434: qemu-system-gui: gui randomly freezes even before booting under remote X
Package: qemu-system-gui Version: 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, when running with ssh -X forwarding, qemu now randomly hangs within the first few seconds. Sometimes the screen is empty with blinking cursor, sometimes there is a partial or full SEABIOS message, sometimes it gets to the grub welcome message, but without fail, it hangs within the first few seconds of startup. the buster version works absolutely reliably with x forwarding. I have seen this both with my own hosts, as well as with the hetzner buster/bullseye rescue systems, so its unlikely to be my system configuration. Aimple way to reproduce this for me is: kvm -snapshot -hda /dev/sda -m 4096 Which normally is a simple way to see if my system is gonna boot. -- System Information: Debian Release: 11.1 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (990, 'stable-updates'), (990, 'stable-security'), (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 5.10.0-9-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU threads) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_IE.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_IE.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE not set Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages qemu-system-gui depends on: ii libc6 2.31-13+deb11u2 ii libcairo2 1.16.0-5 ii libepoxy0 1.5.5-1 ii libgdk-pixbuf-2.0-0 2.42.2+dfsg-1 ii libglib2.0-0 2.66.8-1 ii libgtk-3-03.24.24-4 ii libpixman-1-0 0.40.0-1 ii libpulse0 14.2-2 ii libvte-2.91-0 0.62.3-1 ii libx11-6 2:1.7.2-1 ii qemu-system-arm 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 ii qemu-system-mips 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 ii qemu-system-misc [qemu-system-s390x] 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 ii qemu-system-ppc 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 ii qemu-system-sparc 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 ii qemu-system-x86 1:5.2+dfsg-11+deb11u1 qemu-system-gui recommends no packages. qemu-system-gui suggests no packages. -- no debconf information
Bug#996177: cryptsetup: please report fatal errors without having to use -v
Package: cryptsetup Version: 2:2.3.5-1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, I just had a somewhat lengthy initramfs debug issue caused by some suboptimal cryptsetup behaviour. Specifically, the machine didn't have enough ram, probably because the default algorithm (argon) requires more ram than the machine had. Unfortunately, cryptsetup silently fails - you get a password prompt, youc an enter any password, your shell prompt appears without any message but nothing happened. Only when running cryptsetup with -v did it output an error message akin to (repeated from memory): error -3 not enough memory I think requiring users to use --verbose to see fatal error messages is highly suboptimal behaviour. It would be nice if future versions of cryptsetup would output error messages by default, at least when they are fatal, i.e. the action could not be executed.

Bug#985786: systemd: should be restartable even with mounted network filesystems
Package: systemd Version: 247.3-1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, we were just debugging an issue where systemd-networkd did not restart on some systems, with the following error: Mar 23 13:29:50 cert systemd[1]: Starting Network Service... Mar 23 13:29:50 cert systemd[564743]: systemd-networkd.service: Failed to set up mount namespacing: /run/systemd/unit-r... Mar 23 13:29:50 cert systemd[564743]: systemd-networkd.service: Failed at step NAMESPACE spawning /lib/systemd/systemd-...

Mar 23 13:29:50 cert systemd[1]: Failed to start Network Service. As it turns out, this is due to an extremely fragile setup of networkd - essentially, it requires working network connectivity to be restartable. In our case, the issue above (which, btw., we could only diagnose by strace'ing systemd as systemd gives absolutely no useful error message for this) was a shared network filesystem mounted as /shared. And since we had a network problem (that restarting networkd with a better config was supposed to fix), at some point accesses to /shared caused it to fail with ENOTCONN. This in turn caused sysstemd to not be able to set up the private fs namespace, eventually causing the failure: [pid 564996] statx(4, "shared", AT_STATX_SYNC_AS_STAT|AT_SYMLINK_NOFOLLOW|AT_NO_AUTOMOUNT, 0, 0x7ffdadcf3d30) = -1 ENOTCONN (Transport endpoint is not connected) So while systemd and the systemd-networkd.service work as correctly designed here, I think networkd should not have to rely on a working network to be restartable. I don't know what is at fault or how to solve this problem, but I think this expectation (to be able to restart networkd to fix the nwtrok config) is a reasonable one, so I consider it a bug that this currently can't be done. Also, systemd should diagnose that it cannot access /shared (or whatever path is the problem), rather than just giving a generic error message that something failed without telling what.

Files would be an obvious better solution, either using instanced filenames or maybe a private fs namespace (e.g. in /tmp). I am not a systemd expert, so can't comment on what the best working solution would be, but files are obviously already better without any systemd features, as they don't interfere with the suer environment or other services. > * Codership are quite unaccepting of contributions (e.g: > https://github.com/codership/galera/pull/109).

This is a rather old and wlel-known type of security issue. Typically any local user can view the password. This data is also often exposed in monitoring output, http status pages, smtp and so on. The comandline and environment are simply the wrong places to expose secret data - passwords should never be shown on screen in cleartext. (That includes the environment, btw. storing secrets in environment variables is similarly insecure). > How do you suggest the password would be passed?

Package: fdisk Version: 2.33.1-0.1 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer, sfdisk by default aligns partition sizes to one sector (at least on some disks) when sizes are not exactly specified. Larger alignments can be very useful nowadays, for example, disk encryption can be more efficient when the sector size for encryption is 4096 octets, requiring a partition size that is an exact multiple of 8 sectors. Unfortunately, when sfidsk auto-sizes a partition and the device has an "odd" size and the size is not specified, sfdisk will simply (and correctly) use the full remaining disk, causing e.g. cryptsetup with --sector-size 4096 to fail. It would be nice if it were possible to specify an alignment factor in bytes or sectors that would be used when creating partitions.

Right, but this is the case even when upstream bumps the soname as normal part of their work, so debian surely must be able to deal with this. Existing binaries will continue to work as opposed to having unknown bugs. Anyway, the TL;DR is (yeah, I put it at the end :) that the changes seem to be extensive, and not limited to a single pango release. Just restoring the members/size doesn't seem to be as feasible as I originally thought, as there have been *actual* semantic changes behind the scenes. And I only looked at two of the classes. PS: Thanks for caring - I am relying on the overhelmingly good work of Debian maintainers ever since I switched to debian some 20 years ago. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

I agree it is an unfortunate situation that upstream does this, but a) it's a debian policy violation and b) it introduces unchecked out of bounds accesses, which are always potential security bugs. This is especially troublesome as the mere display of text from untrusted sources can trigger this. If you think that this bug report is a bit muddled I can open a new bug only about the policy vioaltion and memory corruption issue, so there is no confusion about header files or other incompatiiblities, which are a separate issue. > It is also the upstream developer who decides which parts of a library are > or aren't considered to be part of the public API/ABI. True, but in this case, the developer has decided that the relevant parts ARE part of the public ABI. A developer cannot undo this, just as a developer cannot make 1=2, no matter how much she or he insist on it. (which the pango developers don't do btw., it's not disputed that the relevant parts are part of the public ABI, all that the pango developers have said is that they don't have the manpower to bump the soname when on breaking changes). > Yes, reclassifying public API/ABI as private breaks derived projects > that were relying on it, Not only that, they also introduce random memory corruption and potential security bugs. Please note that the problem is not reclassifying the public ABI as private, the problem is breaking the ABI without bumping the soname introducing serious actual bugs. Reclassifying thew ABI as private would not have caused this, neither would breaking the ABI and bumping the soname cause this kind of issue. > and it's unfortunate that the Pango maintainers were unaware > that derived projects were relying on this part of the API The pango maintainers obviously were aware of that, because it's documented in the pango documentation multiple timesa and in the nissue I reported they admitted they were aware of it, but don't care (apparently because it is just too much work, a fair point). > *could* make a Debian-specific fork of Pango, and link our GTK/etc. Bumping the soname is not forking pango, but required by debian policy. Note that bumping thew soname is all that's required to fix this issue, even if the fix is not to my liking, but keep in mind this escalated from "some ABI/API is no longer accessible" to " > I'm sorry that this has broken your use-case, but I don't think taking > an adversarial tone is going to help you to achieve the result you are > aiming for. Can you point out where I have taken "adversial tone"? What I reported is a policy violation and apart from that a serious issue (unchecked memory accesses that can be triggered simply by displaying text). > People who perceive that they are being attacked will tend to > become increasingly defensive and unwilling to change their position, > which is presumably the opposite of what you want. I suppose the bets way to proceed for you is to not feel attacked - I am not aware of attacking you, and if you wrongly got the impression I did, rest assured that this was not the intent of my words, I respect you as a fellow human and so on.

If upstream makes these APIs public again, we can Actually, looking at 1.47 in experimental, it seems the ABI has been changed without bumping the soname (the size of the PangoFcFontClass struct has changed, which is part of the publicv ABI), which means existing binaries will suffer memory corruption. So debian would at least have to bump the soname to soemthing like 1.1. This has happened before - pango upstream does not seem to care much about ABI compatibility, but it's trivial to avoid in debian by bumping the soname, so old binaries don't cause bad things to happen to users. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

If upstream makes these APIs public again, we can Actually, upstream has changed both API and ABI unilaterally - the removed definitions are part of the public ABI, so at some point, debian would have to bump the .soname. > pick that up; but if upstream confirms that they're intentionally private, > making them public again in Debian is just going to cause us more trouble > in future. Upstream has now confirmed that it was intentional - apparently, they don't want people to be able to extend pango themselves anymore, so in the long term I have to switch to something else anyway. Now, since these definitions are part of the public ABI, I guess it is safe to ship these header files myself until actual breakage occurs, but that's really a bit insane. The rationale behind debian shipping these headers would be that the deifntions inside are ABI parameters, so cannot change without a .soname change, at which point ABI compatibility doesn't matter anymore. (Pango has broken their ABI in the past without bumping the .soname, so this is definitely something you should watch out for).

Bug#974139: Acknowledgement (libpango1.0-dev: silent api breakage, subclassing no longer possible)
I've dug a bit deeper. Unfortunately, pango no longer has a ChangeLog, so it's not clear to me when this was changed or why, but this seems to be an intentional change, i.e. between pango 1.42 and pango 1.46 a bunch of public members and structs required to subclass pango have been moved into private header files. I've opened an issue at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/pango/-/issues/513, as massively removing parts of the documented api and disallowing extensibility can't be good. If this breakage is indeed intended, maybe debian could simply ship the missing header files (pango/*-private.h)? According to the docs, they are required to implement new backends). -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

Unfortunately, I was away for a bit and when I returned some helpful

I was told that /var/tmp had wrong permissions (1700 instead of 1777), so
maybe that was the reason for the problem, although when I manually chmod
1700 /var/tmp, I can't reproduce the problem with the fresh setup, either.

Certainly, although the kernel was added afterwards (the whole upgrade was
to get a more recent kernel for newer hardware, and more specifically, a
debian kernel, as we used mainlinme-ppa kernels before).

Already sent this one - I don't think resolving the passwd/group entries were
the problem, something else went wrong, and the problem here is just very
bad error reporting.
Anyway, I'm sorry to not be able to provide closure here, I did reserve
the pxe environment for further debugging, but due to circumstances out of
my control, it has been deleted. A fresh buster setup, not surprisingly,
works fine.

I jumped the gun and upgraded to testing, and the bug still exists - at this point, I assume lsblk somehow looks at the partition data to detect PTTYPE (which makes no sense to me), or maybe it looks at some gpt data not visible in gdisk output: # lsblk --version lsblk from util-linux 2.35.1 # lsblk -o PATH,KNAME,MAJ:MIN,TYPE,PTTYPE,PTUUID,PARTUUID,LABEL,FSTYPE PATH KNAME MAJ:MIN TYPE PTTYPE PTUUID PARTUUID LABEL FSTYPE /dev/sda sda 8:0 disk gpt 81be6e1d-066c-45eb-a13d-53fc8e4730bd /dev/sda1 sda18:1 part gpt 81be6e1d-066c-45eb-a13d-53fc8e4730bd c845ed61-afd2-4437-8db8-cd22b74daf1d EFI vfat /dev/sda2 sda28:2 part gpt 81be6e1d-066c-45eb-a13d-53fc8e4730bd e6a8207b-c4da-44ac-8a04-8f68cf15c119 LVM2_member /dev/sda3 sda38:3 part dos 81be6e1d-066c-45eb-a13d-53fc8e4730bd e744ce6f-6ba9-43a2-b36e-ebd019e0b20d SSDCER ntfs I might be able to creat some test image, or maybe I'll look at the util-linux sources to see what issue is going on here, but either will take some time for me. > Which fdisk is this, because it omits important info (partition > table type) and also doesn't show the GPT partitions? Oh right, sorry - that is actually fdisk v1.17.3, which I use because it doesn't support gpt and also lacks many of tghe safeguards of newer versions that kept getting into my way. I use it for so long I forgot it's not the debian one :().

While it might be fair to ask reporting bugs to upstream and close bugs (this is only a wishlist item after all), I don't think it is a good idea to force users to run non-free software (and give companies private data) to report a bug in Debian GNU/Linux - that's what the debian bugtracker is for, which manages bugs without these issues. Reiserfs is practically dead by now, so this bug report doesn't matter, but you really should re-think what you ask users to do. > Karel and team tend to react well to properly formatted patches that > are useful to all distributions. Well, I don't have a patch anyway. Greetings, Marc

I'm a bit reluctant to upgrade util-linux soon on the machine where it happens, but I still have the disk where it happens (but obviously, util-linux is still the version from buster), so I don't think I can do this anytime soon for the upstream version, which is presumably newer. For what it's worth, here is gdisk -l ands fdisk -l for the disk above.

Bug#948108: unrar corrupts filenames given as arguments
Hi! For some reason I didn't see or receive the reply to this bug report. Anyway, thanks for the explanation, but I am not sure what to make of it - on the one hand, it confirms the bug (unrar incorrectly mangles filenames by trying to recode them), but on the other hand, it's still clearly a bug. And while not as bad as, say, a buffer overflow, this could still have security implications, as unrar will try to process a different file than what the user specified, which could result in unwanted information disclosure. I would agree that this is not a terribly likely scenario, but I don't see a reason why this bug shouldn't get fixed eventually, and I certainly wouldn't call it harmless - I lost some data due to this bug, as some perfectly fine archives were flagged as undecodable due to this spurious error and were deleted before I understood that this is just unrar being broken and not actually a problem in the archives themselves. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ ____ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

No, it just means gparted has a security bug, because the permissions did work as the user intended before gparted changed them without the users knowledge, and they would have worked if gparted wasn't insecurely exposing the files. gparted *changed* the effective permissions of files by mounting the fs in an insecure location. The reason why your logic doesn't work is that you claim *every* debian root fs has the wrong permissions, because some directories might be world-writable (such as /tmp) which might not be what the user intended by not having the fs mounted in an insecure location (and thus allowing a DoS attack). It would also mean filesystems such as fat, without intrinsic permissions, would somehow have "wrong" permissions. I really don't understand why it is so difficult to simply accept that gparted has a security bug. It happens. It should be fixed. It's not the most dangerous security bug, after all... Fact is, gparted exposes files because it changes effective permissions. Whether you all these permissions right or wrong, green or blue, ethical or satanistic doesn't have any influence on this fact - all these classifications are your own personal opinions and don't have any merit in objectively analying this bug. > > Ah, maybe I see where you are copming from - gparted changes effective > > permissions, so they are wrong. > > No, I didn't say anything about gparted.

Well, I have asked you for the source of this claim, but you haven't given one - and I claim you just made it up, because I can't believe you have a source. If you could point out where, in the SuS, it says which permissions are wrong and which are right, then you might have something to discuss. But SuS only documents how permissions work, how they effectively apply, and according to the cold hard facts, gparted exposes files that weren't exposed before. It's that simple.

Ah, maybe I see where you are copming from - gparted changes effective permissions, so they are wrong. Well, congratulations, that's exactly why this is a security bug in gparted - the user doesn't wish file access and configures the permissions accordingly, but gparted circumvents this user configuration, and this is unexpected, and incorrect behaviour. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\

It happens also for filesystems with correct permissions - maybe this is
the point you have problems with?
The effective permissions for a path depend on more than just the
permissions of the file it refers to. For example, a root-only readable
file can still be changed by normal users if the directory is writable for
them.
That means the whole access path needs to be taken into account, and
this is why the security issue is in gparted, because gparted changes
effective permissions in ways not expected by the user, by mounting it in
an insecure location.
Or in other wors, gparted can make files accessible that weren't
accessible before, without the user reasonably expecting this (as the user
expectation is that gparted doesn't widen effective permissions).

Not sure why you write this, but it's clearly not true: Date: Tue, 29 May 2001 14:00:42 -0700 [...] I don't want to perpetuate the symlink thing because it is a terrible hack in the kernel part of the code, and thus will be removed in autofs v5. -hpa (I hope he forgives me to quote a private mail, but the fact is documented in debian bug #128171). That was probably a bit before your time, but the last time I reported problems with symlinks to upstream I was told (in a long thread) that it is a hack and will not be supported. And the result was that the debian maintainer locally applied a patch (in 2006) to make symlinks configurable, for which I was super-thankful. (Note that there are two sides to this: symlinks for local nfs mounts, and symlinks for bind mounts, which are not the same, and which confused me for quite a while). > But the autofs amd format map support needs them to work properly > so quite a bit of effort went into making them work as best as I > could.

It would be convenient yes, but since I had to roll back the timeout change (in my configs) anyway, I can live with the current version for a few more years, and it probably only affects a small subset of hosts anyway, as most only have a symlink to / which won't be unmounted aciidentally...

Ah, I tried to see if there was a custom symlink patch in debians version,
but it seems to e integrated intot he source tree. I feel a bit guilty as I
think I am the likely reason why debian kept some symlink changes.

That's because the previous autofs maintainer, in true systemd fashioon,
decided that nobody should use symlinks as bind mounts are the future(tm).
This seesm to be no longer the case, and I greatly appreciate the apparent
change in policy to make symlinks viable - autofs would be completely
useless to me without symlink support.

I downlaoded autofs-5.1.5-10.fc30.src.rpm and indeed, this block is only in
the debian version (didn't check any .patch files in the rpm though):
/* If path is a mount it can't be a symlink */
if (is_mounted(_PATH_MOUNTED, path, MNTS_ALL))
goto real_mount;
And this is exactly the code that causes this problem. is_mounted has
different semantics depending on whether /dev/autofs exists.

Right. Even if this problem is fixed though, maybe some thought should
be given to the fact that is_mounted is not useful for symlinks in the
current version as the result is essentially random (practically, lstat
vs. stat).
MY hunch is that the kernel shouldn't follow symlinks when testing for
mountpoints, but that probably can't be changed anymore.

The target (in my example) is not an NFS mount at all, it's just normal
mountpoint, the target of the symlink (which in general might not be a but
mountpoint, in my case, is one).
The problem is that autofs calls umount on the symlink (in my example,
/fs/bp), but umount follows symlinks, so the target filesystem is unnmounted,
if it is a mountpoint.
I tried with debug logging, and it looks like this on kill -USR1:
expiring path /fs/bp
umount_multi: path /fs/bp incl 1
umount_multi: removing symlink /fs/bp
expired /fs/bp
When stracing, it literally execs umount /fs/bp:
5463 execve("/bin/umount", ["/bin/umount", "/fs/bp"], 0x555b23a0 /* 20
vars */) = 0
As explained earlier this only happens with misc-device support because
autofs thinks /fs/bp is a mountpoint as the kernel seems to follow
symlinks as well - without /dev/autofs it uses another method which
correctly finds that /fs/bp is not a mountpoint, so umount is never
called.

I don't think it's a new bug (or change) in the kernel, as I remember
having had exactly this problem years ago (so long ago that I forgot about
it when confronted with the workaround, but it came back to me quickly).
But for the record, I am using linux 5.4.15.
The reason I didn't report it at the time was that I binary-patched the
debian package (with a regex-replace on mount_bind.so), and obviously all
bets are off with that method, and I didn't have time to reproduce it with
the pristine debian package, which I did now, however.

It happens with the debian package I am using, yes.

In the meantime, I digged a bit more, and it seems that it is because with misc-device support, autofs uses the AUTOFS_DEV_IOCTL_ISMOUNTPOINT ioctl to check whether something is a mountpoint, which returns 1, which causes the code in umount_multi to decude it cannot be symlink and unmounting it. Indeed, rm /dev/autofs before starting autofs makes it partially work (the target dir is not unmounted, but the entry is still gone without ghosting). Upstream probably already knows this, of course. -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
Bug#950287: autofs: automount expriing unmounts target filesystem
Package: autofs Version: 5.1.2-4 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, for many years, I started automount with -t 8640, and by now had forgotten what this was for (or whether I reported the problem). Today, I removed it and got reminded what it was supposed to work around. Effectively, when automount expires mountpoints, specifically symlink bind mounts, it will unmount the target directory. Example, with browse mode being on: auto.master: /fs /etc/auto.fs symlink -vers=4,intr,rsize=1048576,wsize=1048576,tcp,port=2049,fsc auto.fs: bp -fstype=bind:/bp With this setup, doing ls /fs show a bp directory. ls /fs/bp will replace it by a symlink to /bp, then killall -USR1 automount will remove /fs/bp (which I think it shouldn't when in browse mode, bug #1) and ALSO unmount /bp (bug #2, the real problem). I guess automount simply calls umount on the symlink and then unlinks it. killall -HUP automount will bring back the ghosted /fs/bp entry. alternatively, ls /fs/bp will bring bakc the symolink, butg of course the target directory stays unmounted. I think I never reported it because this behaviour was with my own patched copy, but it is reproducible with the pristine version. -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 5.4.15-050415-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages autofs depends on: ii libc62.28-10 ii libxml2 2.9.4+dfsg1-7+b3 ii ucf 3.0038+nmu1 Versions of packages autofs recommends: ii e2fsprogs 1.45.5-2 ii kmod26-1 ii nfs-common 1:1.3.4-2.5 autofs suggests no packages. -- debconf information excluded

Bug#948210: ftpmirror: does not handle filenames beginning or ending with whitespace
Package: ftpmirror Version: 1.96+dfsg-16+b1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer, I found that ftpmirror does not handle filenames with leading or trailing spaces in unix directory listings. To make matters worse, the error message one gets is not very helpful: get_misc: can't get array at blib/lib/Fan.pm (autosplit into blib/lib/auto/Fan/run_full_mirror.al) line 1269. and then ftpmirror crashes. An example file listing where this happens looks like this: drwxr-xr-x 2 ftp ftp 4 Mar 15 2007 the dir to look at drwxr-xr-x 2 ftp ftp 4 Mar 15 2007 trailing spaces I found it works pretty reliable again after editing /usr/lib/ftpmirror/auto/Fan/Attrib/from_list.al and changing these lines: # kill leading/trailing spaces, and trailing slash s/^\s+//; s/\s+$//; s/\/$//; to: # kill leading space and trailing slash s/^\s//; s/\/$//; i.e. instead of removing all whitespace, it only removes the single whitespace after the file time, and never removes trailing whitespace. I'm not sure trailing whitespace actually exists in reality, but I can imagine extra whitespace after the date, although I haven't seen this yet. Given the age of ftpmirror, I'm not really expecting much action here, maybe a patch or note might be useful though. (I use ftpmirror because, although lftp is quite reliable, it also lacks a lot of the options of ftpmirror, e.g. it can't exclude paths, so it's still useful :) -- System Information: Debian Release: 10.2 APT prefers stable APT policy: (990, 'stable'), (500, 'unstable-debug'), (500, 'testing-debug'), (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable-debug'), (500, 'oldstable-updates'), (500, 'oldstable-debug'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental-debug'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, x32 Kernel: Linux 5.4.7-050407-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Kernel taint flags: TAINT_PROPRIETARY_MODULE, TAINT_OOT_MODULE, TAINT_UNSIGNED_MODULE Locale: LANG=en_DK.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=en_DK.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /usr/bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) LSM: AppArmor: enabled Versions of packages ftpmirror depends on: ii libc6 2.28-10 ii perl5.28.1-6 ii perl-base [perlapi-5.28.0] 5.28.1-6 pn perlapi-5.24.1 pn perlapi-5.30.0 Versions of packages ftpmirror recommends: ii cron 3.0pl1-134+deb10u1 ftpmirror suggests no packages.
Bug#948108: unrar corrupts filenames given as arguments
Package: unrar
Version: 1:5.6.6-2
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
when passing certain (archive) filenames to unrar, unrar will corrupt them
and not be able to open them. The peculiar way this corruption occurs
hints at possible security issues.
Example:
strace -feexecve,stat perl -e 'system "unrar", "x", "x\x92.rar"'
Outputs, among other things:
[pid 9326] execve("/bin/unrar", ["unrar", "x", "x\222.rar"], 0x557679f0
/* 112 vars */) = 0
[pid 9326] stat("x\222.ra", 0x7ffef1d0) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or
directory)
Cannot open x�.ra
(the later filename is written like this):
[pid 9390] write(2, "x", 1x)= 1
[pid 9390] write(2, "\357\277\276", 3�) = 3
[pid 9390] write(2, "\356\202\222", 3) = 3
[pid 9390] write(2, ".", 1.)= 1
[pid 9390] write(2, "r", 1r)= 1
[pid 9390] write(2, "a", 1a)= 1
[pid 9390] write(2, "\nN", 2
So somehow the \x92 character gets replaced, but also the trailing "r" (from
rar) is removed.
This happened in a utf-8 based locale (en_DK.UTF-8), which is probably
related.
Obviously, unrar should not mangle filenames, as filenames are
octet-strings, not locale-encoded.

Bug#947091: manpages-dev: timerfd_settime can fail with ECANCELED
Package: manpages-dev
Version: 5.04-1
Severity: wishlist
Dear Maintainer,
the timerfd_create/settime/... manpage documents that reads from a timerfd
configured with TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET fail with ECANCELED, however, I
found that timerfd_settime (and probably timerfd_gettime and others) have
the same behaviour, and of course youc an poll for this event as well, and
all this is not documented.
Background: I was implementing time jump detection in libev using the
relatively new TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET feature. For this, I arm the timer
with some future value and only use it for the side effect of getting
canceled (although it might occasionally expire).
The timerfd_create/settime calls look like this (future it_value.tv_sec
value, zero interval):
timerfd_create(CLOCK_REALTIME, TFD_CLOEXEC|TFD_NONBLOCK) = 5
timerfd_settime(5, TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME|TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET,
{it_interval={tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, it_value={tv_sec=1579464284, tv_nsec=0}},
NULL) = 0
all normal so far: On every time jump, I rearm the timer with
timerfd_settime, without having any other interaction with the timerfd
(other than polling it for read events). The following is the effect of
"date -s somevalue" three times:
timerfd_settime(5, TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME|TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET,
{it_interval={tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, it_value={tv_sec=949273200, tv_nsec=0}},
NULL) = -1 ECANCELED (Operation canceled)
timerfd_settime(5, TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME|TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET,
{it_interval={tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, it_value={tv_sec=949273200, tv_nsec=0}},
NULL) = -1 ECANCELED (Operation canceled)
timerfd_settime(5, TFD_TIMER_ABSTIME|TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET,
{it_interval={tv_sec=0, tv_nsec=0}, it_value={tv_sec=949273200, tv_nsec=0}},
NULL) = -1 ECANCELED (Operation canceled)
>From this, I learn that timerfd_settime fails the same way as a read would
do (probably some error slippage happening) and despite timerfd_settime
failing with ECANCELED, it actually succeeds in rearming the timer.
Don't know if this is a kernel bug, but I assume this works more or less
as designed, but has escaped the documentation as TFD_TIMER_CANCEL_ON_SET
is a relatively new feature.
As a minor nitpick, the "Operating on a timer file descriptor" is a tiny
bit misleading, as it doesn't mention timerfd_gettime etc. as supported
"operations on a timerfd fd". And while it probably isn't a major thing in
the context, I do expect the utmost exactness from manpages-dev because
that is my past experiencw with it, so I suggest adding "additional" here:
The file descriptor returned by timerfd_create() supports the
following additional operations:
Thanks,
Marc

Uhm, what other information could potentially be of use? Nothing else
in the script is of any relevance, other than starting a daemon with
@ as first character of its name. The arguments do not do anything to
change the name, and that's essentially the only other thing that the
script does. The only relevant information is that systemd has special
(but buggy) code for processes whose names start with '@' - nothing else
matters, as systemd clearly doesn't check for anything else, as you can
see in the code - just grep for the log_notice I provided (I don't have
easy access to it righ now, otherwise I woudl do it for you).

The information is right in the paragraph you just quoted - root points to
"/" and exe points to "/usr/bin/ntfs-3g (deleted)".

stat can't show you what they "actually" point to, but since the command
was started using initramfs (as also already mentioned), / obviously
points to the root of the initramfs, and the ntfs-3g dxecutable in there
has been deleted when it was cleaned up during boot, unless you want to
assume a kernel bug.
What _stat_ can tell you is that "root" points to a different filesystem
(the tmpfs used by the kernel) than the current root filesystem that is
supposedly blocked.

Bug#943544: "read out of range" on ntfs-files with streams
Mystery is solved, when an ntfs file has a data stream, then grub fails with an "out of range" error while reading. Should be relatively easy to fix by ignoring extended attributes, or at the very least giving a sensible error message :) -- The choice of a Deliantra, the free code+content MORPG -==- _GNU_ http://www.deliantra.net ==-- _ generation ---==---(_)__ __ __ Marc Lehmann --==---/ / _ \/ // /\ \/ / schm...@schmorp.de -=/_/_//_/\_,_/ /_/\_\
