No sorry there is no libvirt pkg in Debian, I used the wiki [1] to get
me going.

If you want to purge, you should substitute the libvirt pkg above by
'qemu-system libvirt-daemon-system'.

If you also add virt-manager or virt-inst, you will need to also add
those on the command line.

Relatedly, there is this behavior change:

linux-image-5.10.0-13-amd64:

$ sudo ip link add test1 type veth peer test2
$ ip addr | grep test[12]
2372: test2@test1:  mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN 
group default qlen 1000
2373: test1@test2:  mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN 
group default qlen 1000


linux-image-5.10.0-17-amd64:

$ sudo ip link add test1 type veth peer test2
$ ip addr | grep test[12]
214: test2@test1:  mtu 1500 qdisc 
noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
215: test1@test2:  mtu 1500 qdisc 
noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000

Default DOWN vs. default UP.

net.ipv6.conf.intf.disable_ipv6 behavior changes

[Casey Deccio]

I've come across some unexpected changes in interface behavior between 
linux-image-5.10.0-13-amd64 and linux-image-5.10.0-17-amd64.

Consider the following script:

$ cat test.sh
#!/bin/sh
sudo ip link add test1 type veth peer test2
sudo ip link set test1 down
sudo ip link set test2 down
sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6=1
sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6=1
sudo ip link set test1 up
sudo ip link set test2 up

(There might be a simpler way to trigger it, but this one works for me.)

When I run this on a system running linux-image-5.10.0-13-amd64, I get this 
behavior:

$ ./test.sh 
net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6 = 1
$  ip addr | grep -A 3 test[12]
2370: test2@test1:  mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue 
state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether ea:fc:8a:36:09:fc brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
2371: test1@test2:  mtu 1500 qdisc noqueue 
state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether e2:e0:d2:09:0d:de brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6 = 1
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6 = 1

No IPv6 addresses, and IPv6 is still disabled.  But when I run on a system 
running linux-image-5.10.0-17-amd64, I get this behavior:

$ ./test.sh 
net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6 = 1
net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6 = 1
$ ip addr | grep -A 3 test[12]
212: test2@test1:  mtu 1500 qdisc 
noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether ce:16:79:86:ea:16 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 fe80::cc16:79ff:fe86:ea16/64 scope link 
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
213: test1@test2:  mtu 1500 qdisc 
noqueue state UP group default qlen 1000
link/ether b6:8f:2e:59:1e:68 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
inet6 fe80::b48f:2eff:fe59:1e68/64 scope link 
   valid_lft forever preferred_lft forever
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.test1.disable_ipv6 = 0
$ sudo sysctl net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6
net.ipv6.conf.test2.disable_ipv6 = 0

The interfaces are configured with link-local addresses, and IPv6 is no longer 
disabled.

I looked through the changelog for linux-image-5.10.0-17-amd64 and saw a number 
of changes from upstream involving sysctl, but I couldn't point to any one 
thing that might have caused this.

So... what I'm looking for is 1) a sanity check (can others confirm the 
behavior discrepancy?); 2) an expectation of *correct* behavior (seems to me 
like the 5.10.0-13 behavior is "correct"); and 3) suggestions for next steps.  
This has broken some software I've developed. I have a workaround, but it's not 
very pretty :)

P.S.  For those that are concerned that I'm disabling IPv6, this is for 
teaching the link layer, and it's really hard to do that with all the activity 
associated with IPv6.

Try removing the characters "put": it's --infilter.

Note that I don't know what kinds of string are expected as an

Hi,

To add to other replies, there is information about the '-C' option of the fsck
command in two different manpages. Run the below commands to display them:
man 8 fsck
man 8 e2fsck
(when you run fsck on a ext2/3/4 filesystem, it calls e2fsck to do the work).

You don't say which filesystem format you're using. The native
formats, ext2–4, can give you a progress bar with the -C option,
but only if filesystems are checked one at a time. With:

  # fsck -f -n -C /dev/sdz4

I get progress bars on the first two passes, but the other three
flash by too quickly to make a judgment (29GB partition on a caddy).

I haven't delved into -C's optional argument because I'm using
an ordinary xterm.

Cheers,
David.

Re: Seeing progross during fsck on boot

[DdB]

Just thinking about your request ...

Imagine this: You run "fsck -N ..." and get a rough estimate about the
time necessary to get the I/O and the job done, then it would be easy to
set up some timed countdown in parallel with the real fsck job, just for
you to have an idea about the time left.

Alternatively, copy the whole device to another place, peform the fsck
there and decide, if copying back the result would be faster of just
running fsck on the original device.

What i am intending to make you think about: Sometimes it is way more
difficult and time consuming to get a rough estimate of some result,
than to actually just get it for real. (You may talk to some math PHD
about that.) ... not worth the effort, because even you would prefer to
get the result as fast as possible and not wait twice the time just to
know ahead of time, when the job is likely to finish.

Does that make sense to you too?

Seeing progross during fsck on boot

[Mike]

Folks,

A long time, maybe 11 years ago, I built a NAS box based around comodity
hardware and the Debian of the day.  It's currently been through several
apt-get dist-upgrades and currently running Debian 11 with loads of old
config grandfathered into it.

It's a server, so runs 24x7 but every few months or so falls on its
arse.  Periodically it wants to fsck the disks, either because they've
gone 20 mounts or so without a fsck or more often because they've gone
however many days it is without a fsck.

This I can live with.  I can even live with the fact that with several
TB file systems and quite a few files, the processs takes around fuor
hours.  I'd just be nice to have some progress reported.  While it
managed to spit details of any file system errors that have been found
and corrected, other than that it sits there utterly silent.  For hours.
I can see that it's doing something as 1) it's expected behaviour and 2)
I can see the disk light solid on.  Nevertheless, it would be nice to
see the progress bar indicting how it was getting along.

Does aoyone have any idea how to enable this?  I have no idea where to
look.  I've had several attempts at finding the answer with a well-known
Internet search engine but while I've found many similar questions and
even sometimes the same one as I'm asking but so far an answer has
proved illusive.

Does anyone have any suggestions for a solution or indeed where one may
look for one?

Regards,
Mike.

Re: Windows on VMware on Deb 11: safely usable?

You should be able to do that, however the main restricting factor is your host 
machines number of virtual  Threads (cps)  in addition to the amount of 
physical memory or ram that your  main board has available to use which is 
usually decreased due to your host ps and also the professor also used some 
threads for housekeeping tasks such as   managing memory and data bus  
maintenance.

I guess it would be worth setting -a --min-read-rate in addition,
as 636 bytes/sec is unsustainable. This will trigger the skipping.
But the most help could be just reversing the pass, to see whether
the "damage" is local or across the whole disk.

As for the examples, I didn't see a freeze reported (ex.3), nor any
read errors (ex.5), just a slowdown; I think ex.3 is for occasions
when reading particular sectors just locks up the disk.

Cheers,
David.

So I should install package libvrt and that's all I need? Will it
bring in all the other packages mentioned above?

I took your advice and doubled it.  A program that had me baffled this

You said this is a VPS, so it's going to depend on which *type* of VPS,
but mostly it's a matter of how much memory the VPS is allowed to use,
by the host system.

It looks like your VPS is limited to 1 GB (989 Mi, it says) of total
memory.  If your program is coming close to that, then you may need to
talk to your VPS provider and get more memory allocated to you (which
may cost more money).

Try doubling it.

Hi Dan,

Yes I've been coding for a living for 15 years in C#.


/var/log/messages:Sep  1 12:41:34 debian-s-websites kernel:
[31104249.962672] .NET ThreadPool invoked oom-killer:
gfp_mask=0x6280ca(GFP_HIGHUSER_MOVABLE|__GFP_ZERO), nodemask=(null),
order=0, oom_score_adj=0
/var/log/messages:Sep  1 12:41:34 debian-s-websites kernel:
[31104249.973435]  oom_kill_process.cold.30+0xb/0x1cf

Dan - you found my problem.  Thanks!

When the program is running I have this:
Mem:  989Mi   579Mi64Mi   149Mi   346Mi
120Mi

It clearly thinks 64M is not enough.  I know my program can require up to a
Gig of memory for the bigger datasets.  What is the minimum GNU/Linux will
tolerate so I don't end up throwing money away on unused RAM?

There is a kernel feature called the Out Of Memory Killer, which
kills processes that try to use all the memory of the system.

Did you write this program?

Are you a fluent .Net Core programmer?

Has it ever run on some other system?

What happens if you try with a dataset of ten records?

.Net Core program crashes on Linux and not on Windows

[Patrick Kirk]

Hi all,

I have a program that is meant to run on my Debian VPS which is hosted by
Digital Ocean.  My access to the server is via Putty. Unfortunately the
program simply stops, silently, after a few minutes.

My code is littered with try catch statements. The console window shows no
errors. It just silently fails.

One issue may be that the program is a resource hog working with datasets
of a million or so records at a time. Perhaps the system kills processes
that threaten to take over all resources?

Anyway, I would be grateful for any suggestion on how to track down this
problem. I'm happy to read the documentation but as you can probably tell I
don't know how to start framing the question.

Re: "Failed to start Create System Users" when booting Debian 10 rootfs from NFS mount.

[mj]

Hi,

A suggestion: we've had issues in the past, where on NFS root the issue 
was that setting "Linux Capabilities" (setcap) fails, because NFS does 
not support the extended attributes to store them.


Perhaps that is your issue as well?

Hi,

I'm trying to bring up the Debian 10 root file system on an ARM SoC 
board. When the rootfs was in an SD card the board worked well. When I 
put the rootfs on an NFS server and tried to boot the board through NFS 
mount, it reported error through serial port:


|[FAILED] Failed to start Create System Users. See 'systemctl status 
systemd-sysusers.service' for details. |


And this is the only error message printed out. The board went all the 
way to login inputI, but I could not login with any of 
the preset accounts including root (because no users have been created 
as it suggested?), and I didn't see any way to run commands to check 
system status for details.


So how is the process "create system users" performed when Linux/Debian 
starts? What can be contributing to this error?


Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
