[Bug 1564832] [NEW] Apparmor profile for NTPd needs to allow read/write access to /dev/ppsX

2016-04-01 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Public bug reported:

Am trying to get NTP to work with the kernel PPS subsystem, for high-
accuracy GPS-based clocks. On startup of NTPd I see this:

Apr  1 11:18:58 doorway kernel: [  300.387443] audit: type=1400
audit(1459505938.042:9): apparmor="DENIED" operation="open"
profile="/usr/sbin/ntpd" name="/dev/pps0" pid=1668 comm="ntpd"
requested_mask="wr" denied_mask="wr" fsuid=0 ouid=0

Adding this to the usr.sbin.ntpd apparmor profile eliminated the error:

  /dev/pps[0-9]* rw,


I'm not sure why ntpd needs *write* access to ppsN though, perhaps that can be 
improved.

Sorry about this. I do believe it's addressed by our move to Mongo 3.2,
but I haven't tested that as the branch hasn't quite landed. It is
targeted to Juju 2.0 and Ubuntu 16.04 though.

Paul, I believe the plan is to move to MongoDB 3.2 with Juju 2.0, which
solves the issue. I am not sure when we will have an upgrade mechanism
from 1.x to 2.x but we intend to do that in due course.

[Bug 1355813] Re: Interface MTU management across MAAS/juju

2015-04-17 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Do we need to take into account any overhead being added by the protocol
stack along the way?

For example, if the underlying MAAS machine can be told to use 9000 byte
MTUs and jumbo frames, then each layer up could adopt that, but might
need to chop off some of that for protocol / tunnel / encapsulation
overhead. I've seen cases where your internal interface needs to have,
say 20 byte smaller MTUs than the host. Perhaps THAT's the bit that we
should focus on specifying. So MAAS gets told just jumbo frames here
and then everything else focuses on understanding and allowing for
overhead, but maximising MTU subject to that overhead.

Is there a way to run Go processes under a debugger and generate very
high-resolution debugging output? I'm seeing this every second or third
attempt to build a cloud. It might be that debugging overhead makes the
problem vanish (yay Heisenberg) but it might give us a useful picture.

Alternatively, I can provide ssh access to an environment which

Re: [Bug 1305839] Re: FFe: Support for Third Party Driver Installation

To Robbie's point - yes, it makes no sense to make the install break
mysteriously when we can get it to work, any more so on a server or a
phone. It does make sense to flag in the UI when we have used drivers
outside of the normal Ubuntu kernel set. We're not installing
proprietary applications, I don't see a significant moral issue.

[Bug 1305839] Re: FFe: Support for Third Party Driver Installation

2014-04-12 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
The key difference in my mind is recoverability. In the server case, the
install is by nature largely automated, and often will fail altogether
if you don't for example have the ability to configure your hard drives.

Perhaps an analogy for the desktop would be to ask the question - what
if a popular, common device that was required for system installation in
a large percentage of cases required a non-free driver to be on the disk
and used by default. We would certainly opt to make that device
installable; consider our approach on phones, where we accept binary
blobs and invest a lot to deliver a free userspace.

I don't think we're crossing a significant new line here. There are many
pieces of no-charge proprietary software we COULD be installing to make
the product better, but we don't, given our values. In this case, I see
no moral high ground in crippling the install unless someone answered an
ideological question. We often forget how hard it is for new users to
come up to speed - we know all the permutations and combinations and
tradeoffs, most users do not.

Consider also how comfortable we are enabling people to run Ubuntu on
proprietary clouds - where they will never see the code beneath the
code, as it were.

Having said all this, I didn't clarify earlier that this mechanism
should only be used for hardware which has no free driver. We should
always silently select the free driver if such a driver exists, and if
people want to go hunting for a proprietary one, ensure they can find
them in a standard, supportable, upgradeable fashion, but not use it by
default.

[Bug 1305839] Re: FFe: Support for Third Party Driver Installation

2014-04-11 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Thanks all for the comments and discussion.

Responding to some key points:

 * building confidence in code changes both for this FFE and subsequent
SRUs is important, the archive and RM teams have a mandate to seek
comfort on that front before ack'ing an upload under either
circumstances

 * in other words - thank you for calling out the late change :)

 * I have asked and the MAAS team have assured that all SRU changes will
come with appropriate test suites

 * I would expect to see a test suite for this change and would expect
that test suite to have been run on the appropriate hardware.
Separately, we'll arrange to have MAAS CI and testing integrated to the
OIL lab, which has a rapidly growing range of hardware.

 * installing the necessary drivers is the norm in the linux
environment; warning the user about the consequences of this is the norm
in the Ubuntu environment.

 * I'd ask that we accept this FFE once tests are in place, or if
needed, with a commitment to tests as a zero-day SRU

 * I'd ask that the MAAS team commit to flagging the installation of
such drivers in the MAAS node UI, possibly also with a flag on the node
listing

 * all of this assumes the existence of a setting which enables a system
administrator to tell MAAS not to do this by default on any given
machine without explicit approval

As general guidance, this is an area that will evolve fast in the coming
months and years, so I've asked the MAAS team to keep developing on
14.04 LTS as their primary platform, introducing no dependencies that
are not in 14.04, so we can SRU. If we need to move to universe to make
that more comfortable for the release team, let's do that. We got stuck
in 12.04 with old versions of key tools that should have been moved -
stuck because of bad thinking on the deps front, and perceived dogma on
the RM front. We can do better this time by requiring rigorous CI and
testing on SRUs, and being sensible about deps. That goes for maas, juju
and related tools, all of which need to be current and useful in the
coming two years.

Also, thank you Adam for pointing out that we need to do the same sort
of ubiquity- and jockey-like calling out of the issues associated with
binary blobs on servers that we do on the PC. I'll get the MAAS folks to

[Bug 1246236] Re: pxe boot from maas fails due to time out

2014-04-04 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
I'm seeing this error in the Garage MAAS today. As it happens, also have
two interfaces on the network on that machine. Will try reducing to one
and reboot.

Ashok, you're in the right place. The standard Ubuntu server install
should work on most common x86 servers, there's a list of certified ones
at http://www.ubuntu.com/certification/search/?search=server

Also, check out the announcement of pre-installed Ubuntu Enterprise
Cloud on Dell's PowerEdge C servers, you can order a fully setup cloud
to get going, then add to it over time as your need for scale increases.

If you run into problems, there is official support from Canonical
(available direct if you set it up yourself, and also available with the
Dell offering). Discussions on the ubuntu-cl...@lists.ubuntu.com mailing
list are not support oriented, they are more focused on where the cloud
infrastructure will go in future and how to embrace all sorts of new
cloud offerings and options.

[Bug 454519] [NEW] Public IP addresses should be assignable by DHCP

2009-10-18 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Public bug reported:

During the installation of Eucalyptus on Ubuntu, one is asked for the IP
addresses for publicly visible images. These IP addresses must
necessarily be on a subnet that the nodes can see (because they will
proxy for the virtual machines), so it should be possible to assign such
IP addresses dynamically using DHCP.

When an instance is started, the node controller should ask the DHCP
server for a public address for the instance. If it is unable to get
one, then the instance should fail to start in the same way that it
might fail if there were a shortage of any other kind of resource needed
for the instance.

[Bug 454521] [NEW] Eucalyptus installer should skip range-of-public-ip's question in favour of DHCP

2009-10-18 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Public bug reported:

Once Eucalyptus supports the use of DHCP for dynamic public IP
assignment to instances running in the cloud, the cloud installer in
Ubuntu should skip the question asking about a range of public IP
addresses. Such a range can be configured manually if needed, the
default just works configuration should assume the existence of a DHCP
server and act accordingly.

[Bug 454540] [NEW] DHCP requests for public IPs should use DHCP options

2009-10-18 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Public bug reported:

As described in bug #454519 it should be possible to assign public IP's
for cloud instances dynamically using DHCP. The DHCP requests should
include some custom dhcp options that allow for smarter configuration of
the DHCP server.

For example, if the DHCP request includes custom options which identify
the image used (the EMI) then it would be possible to configure the DHCP
server to assign IP addresses from specific ranges to specific EMI's. If
the DHCP request also included as an option an indicator of a persistent
identify then the DHCP server can attempt to assign a persistent IP
address. DHCP options are described in the dhcp-options(5) man page.

As an example, we could create the Canonical encapsulated option space,
and then have options like:

  Canonical.UPC.mi = text (the machine image identifier)
  Canonical.UPC.id = text (some persistence identifier)

We would update the DHCP server documentation to make it very easy for
people to assign ranges of IP addresses for use in their cloud, or for
specific machine images etc.

[Bug 333711] [NEW] AppArmor profile for sbin.dhclient3 should handle connman

2009-02-23 Thread Mark Shuttleworth
Public bug reported:

Connection manager (connman) runs /sbin/dhclient using some specific
actions and stores leases in different locations to NetworkManager. The
new sbin.dhclient3 AppArmor profile prevents connman from acquiring an
IP address and storing the lease, I include a patch to the profile which
addresses that.

I'm not sure whether AppArmor configurations can extend one another. If
so, it may be better to extend the dhclient profiles (/sbin/dhclient3,
/sbin/dhclient-script, /usr/lib/connman/scripts/dhclient-script) in a
separate apparmor.d file added by the connman package. For the moment
this patch just extends the profile added by the dhcp3-client package.
