[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
This bug was fixed in the package multipath-tools - 0.5.0-7ubuntu1 --- multipath-tools (0.5.0-7ubuntu1) wily; urgency=medium * Merge from debian unstable, remaining changes: (LP: #1455482) - control: * Bump debhelper dependency to install udev rules to /lib/udev/rules.d, bump udev dependencies as well. - initramfs/hooks: use 95 not 60 for multipath rules priority - multipath-tools-boot.init: remove in favor of kpartx.udev rules (at top) - multipath-tools.preinst: modprobe dm-multipath. This will make sure that multipathd will be able to start. - patches/1000--set-umask-in-multipathd.patch: Set umask in multipathd. - rules: Move udev rules to priority 95, because rules that load modules should be 90. - debian/initramfs/local-top: wait for udev to settle before running 'multipath' in order to avoid race condition on device-mapper calls. - debian/initramfs/local-top: remove '--timeout 10' which causes my test system to not boot roughly 3 out of 4 times. - Split kpartx initramfs bits into kpartx-boot for dmraid (LP: #941874) - Added debian/patches/0015-shared-lock-for-udev.patch (LP: #1431650) * debian/patches/0015-libmultipath-property-whitelist-SCSI_IDENT.patch: add SCSI_IDENT_* properties to blacklist exceptions, so that we can have QEMU multipathed devices as well as others (IBM IPR) detected properly as multipathed devices. * debian/patches/handle_spaces_in_rev_attr.patch: support IBM IPR devices and others which may have only spaces for the rev attribute. * debian/patches/path_selector.patch: switch the default path selector back to round-robin while service-time isn't available to the installer multipath-modules. * debian/control: add sg3-udeb to multipath-udeb Depends. -- Mathieu Trudel-Lapierre mathieu...@ubuntu.com Mon, 06 Jul 2015 13:15:22 -0400 ** Changed in: multipath-tools (Ubuntu) Status: In Progress = Fix Released -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455482 Title: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1455482/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Still working on it. With sg3-utils adapted to also ship a sg3-udeb package for use by the installer (which multipath-udeb can depend on so it's available to the installer), things appear to work more or less properly. To be able to ship this we still need the dm-service-time module available in multipath-modules (see bug 1469240), but I can patch this requirement to revert to round-robin path selector in the meantime. That said, partman needs an update so that partman-multipath properly gets picked up. This may be another symptom of the module not being immediately available; next step is to test that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to the bug report. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455482 Title: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1455482/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Well, that change was made for a good reason; multipath now no longer depends on scsi_id to be able to pick drives to use to multipath, and we can explicitly whitelist (or use blacklist_exclusions) devices or re- enable ID_SERIAL by modifying multipath.conf. Is this affecting other drives than the QEMU ones for your use-case? There's still another issue though; in the installer we don't ship path selectors other than round-robin, so even if ID_SERIAL is whitelisted, you still need to modify multipath.conf to pick the round-robin selector instead of service-time -- which is now the default. I'll work on shipping service-time instead of round-robin, but the other option is to change multipath's default. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455482 Title: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1455482/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Well, that change was made for a good reason; snip Is this affecting other drives than the QEMU ones for your use-case? Agree, good reasons. Yes, the IPR disks show up as SCSI ones. And if there's no other attributes (say, the SCSI_* udev attributes which sg3-utils udev rules can set), the IBM IPR disks won't be multipathed. I didn't have a chance to check this w/ FC, but I suspect the WWN_ attributes are also defined by sg3-utils udev rules, and not somewhere else, so I guess they'd not work as well. The BTS bugs for the sg3-utils/whitelist/IPR rev issues are listed in comment #5. instead of service-time -- which is now the default. I'll work on shipping Ah, yeah, the service-time path selector.. also for the installer. For the initramfs that is resolved w/ Debian (BTS 782363).

[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Closing the mpath[0-9]/[a-z] discussion.. Just the merge with Debian will do it, as long as Ubuntu drops patch 0002. Debian returned to mpath[a-z] (dropping patch 0002) a few months after Ubuntu branched off from 0.4.9-3 for Precise. This will require changes to the installer packages; the disk-partition separator stuff can be removed (shouldn't be necessary with mpath[a-z]). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455482 Title: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1455482/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs
[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Mathieu, One of the things where Debian differs from upstream (but not new) is to stick with mpath[0-9]+ rather than mpath[a-z]+. This is in patch 0002, iirc. Can we switch over or (easier) rebase/move it toward the end of the series? If it's not possible to switch over (we already know where to fix things for d-i), I'd ask to at least move that patch to the end of the series, and rebase it when required. It's currently an inconvenient when backporting patches from upstream (many of which are rooted in a change that it complicates to do). I believe the work to make the change is worth it / lesser than that work for backporting due to keeping it. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Server Team, which is subscribed to multipath-tools in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1455482 Title: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/multipath-tools/+bug/1455482/+subscriptions -- Ubuntu-server-bugs mailing list Ubuntu-server-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-server-bugs

[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
The 2 options are drop or rebase. Regarding drop, the reason to ask Ubuntu is because Debian just released, and it would break w/ their release contents, which adds more work in updates/maintainence. AFAIK, Ubuntu releases are more independent of each other in the updates sense (please correct me if that's wrong). Regarding rebase, definitely ideal and no problems expected w/ Debian. Ritesh (maintainer) has been friendly and reasonable w/ patch submission/discussion, and the constraint there is upstream-first, for which a downstream-patch rebase is not a problem, and actually helps w/ the backport work. I'll follow up w/ Ritesh in a BTS bug, so that may eventually stream down to W.

[Bug 1455482] Re: Multipath: upgrade multipath-tools to upstream
Hi Steve, I see the points about upstream/unreleased trunk. I'm not aware of plans/how the dm/m-t community plans for releases. Well, Debian 0.5.0 would help to a reasonable extent. multipath-tools 0.5.0 fixes a number of issues encountered here, and is in a better position regarding backports. Additionally, there's a few fixes I had to submit to Debian multipath- tools 0.5.0 (and sg3-utils), which would be required too for booting from multipath. So, I think Debian 0.5.0 is OK, and any required more-recent commits we encounter can get backports.

Tracking an upstream trunk that has not been QAed for a release is not necessarily something we want to do. Do you know if upstream has another release planned?
