You may want to use the dpkg-buildpackage utility with the relevant Debian 
Packaging for your Linux kernel x.y.z ; this last can be obtained from 
https://anonscm.debian.org/git/kernel/linux.git

Tested your patch on initramfs-tools 0.139 -- which conf/initramfs.conf was 
modified to default to Zstd -- on an VirtualBox 6.1.16 Debian instance without 
Zstd package installed.

It fulfilled its intended purpose. Thank you, as well!

Reiser4 enhanced Debian 9.x Linux 4.18.xy series hung.

2018-10-21 Thread Metztli Information Technology 
Niltze, all-

Ever since I build reiser4 -patched [1] Linux kernel 4.18.xy iterations I have 
had kernel hanging issues --which manifest themselves after considerable load 
and/or multitasking in my local development machine *and* in an vm instance 
running in Google Compute Engine (GCE).

My root file systems are reiser4, Software Format Release Number (SFRN) 4.0.1 
and 4.0.2.
(Official current Reiser4 resources:
< https://reiser4.wiki.kernel.org/ >)

I have had very solid reiser4 Linux kernel builds for AMD64 up to now, for 
instance,
uname -a
Linux huitzilopochtli 4.14.0-3+reiser4.0.2-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 
4.14.20-1+reiser4.0.2 (2018-02-18) x86_64 GNU/Linux

which is part of what could be termed as 'Reiser4 the Debian Way' because I 
modify Debian's unstable (Sid) kernel
packaging to build with GCC6 for Stretch-backports AMD64, i.e., 
< https://github.com/Metztli/reiser4-debian-kernel-packaging-4.14.20 >

Notwithstanding, here is a portion of a hung Linux kernel 4.18.15-1 running on 
GCE cloud whose serial output is as follows:

Reiser4 / GCC6 for Debian Kernel 4.18.1x Packaging for Sid

2018-10-05 Thread Metztli Information Technology 
Niltze, all-

Attached please find a reiser4 patch for Debian kernel packaging for 
linux-4.18.1x source from Sid (Unstable).

The patch enables kernel and modules build for stretch-backports, specifically 
AMD64 but i386 might work (untested).

Building Reiser4 'the Debian Way', generates DEBs, such as headers, etc., for 
development;
 procedure also generates UDEBs suitable for Debian-Installer(d-i).

Applying upstream Linux incremental patches, diligently, we can create a 
slightly higher kernel version than Debian's, i.e.,
by applying patch-4.18.10-11.xz, I am currently running:

uname -a

Linux 4.14.14 kernel bug on line 152 fs/reiser4/block_alloc.c

2018-01-26 Thread Metztli Information Technology 

Niltze, Ed-

I had been using Linux kernel 4.14.14 built 'the Debian way' for a couple of 
days
--doing some light VirtualBox development and successful virtual machine 
test/creation.

Notwithstanding, today 01-25-2018 experienced black screen kernel bug trace 
during browser usage.
I wrote down line number of reiser4 file.

FYI: No dataloss but had to reboot Debian AMD64 system due to 'kernel bug' at 
reference file/line:

invalid opcode:  [#2] SMP PTI

file []-4.14.14/linux/fs/reiser4/block_alloc.c
--
[...]
/* Static functions for / block counters
   arithmetic. Mostly, they are isolated to not to code same assertions in
   several places. */
static void sub_from_ctx_grabbed(reiser4_context * ctx, __u64 count)
{
BUG_ON(ctx->grabbed_blocks < count); # kernel bug line 152
assert("zam-527", ctx->grabbed_blocks >= count);
ctx->grabbed_blocks -= count;
}
[...]
-

In addition to usual prior mentioned specific Linux 4.14.x series logged 
entries during kernel builds:

Actually we are ahead of Debian, Ed, as they are still using lzo and zlib for 
their filesystems compress/decompress, even
in their Unstable (Sid) distribution kernel packaging. So still using 
ignore-dups as there seems no adverse effect:

lsmod | grep -i reiser4
reiser4   454656  1
zstd_compress 167936  1 reiser4
zstd_decompress86016  1 reiser4

As of this morning I am using the kernel.org upstream kernel 4.14.3-1, which I 
properly built this time with stretch GCC-6.x
(unlike my very first 4.14.2-1 effort --which I built with GCC-7). I have also 
built Felix's package of reiser4progs 1.2 (for consistency) stretch-backports.

After copying data in my development laptop to another storage medium, I 
reformated ~ 1.1TB partition with ZSTD and subsequenly migrated back my 
original data. I am impressed with initial performance of ZSTD over previous 
transparent-compression scheme. Still testing though...

I have uploaded relevant stretch-backports kernel/utilities build-generated 
reiser4 component software to SourceForge

Well, ignore-dups was 'quick hack' -- and it took me several build attempts to 
figure out
at *which* package directory root it had to be touch'ed -- until I forced
/usr/share/kernel-wedge/commands/find-dups
to spit it out in the build log via its $configdir variable.

Notwithstanding, except for Ben, we don't get much constructive feedback from 
Debian but I assume
 Squashfs and btrfs 'harmonious' zstd coexistence has to do with:
"When you have duplicates, you need to find (or make) a package that both 
packages depend on, and move
the duplicate modules to it."
< https://github.com/pexip/os-kernel-wedge >

As I have time, I will attempt to figure out which package Squashfs and btrfs 
depend on so as to
potentianlly implement a patch to include reiser4 (SFRN) 4.0.2.

Accordingly, in order for the build to proceed past the kernel-wedge show 
stopper, I had to

touch debian/installer/amd64/ignore-dups
< https://github.com/pexip/os-kernel-wedge >
i.e.,

% kernel-wedge help find-dups
find-dups kernel-name

Find duplicate modules. Pass the kernel name.

Return 1 if any duplicates are found, unless $KW_CHECK_NONFATAL is
non-empty or the configuration file 'ignore-dups' exists.

I've built libaal-1.0.7 and Reiser4progs-1.2.0 Debian packages for AMD64 
successfully and currently testing in a virtual machine.

I've applied reiser4-for-4.14.0 patch to upstream kernel 4.14.2; Debian
