C7, and my RAID
by mark 24 Jan '19

24 Jan '19

Ok, I think my only choice at this point is to delete and recreate the RAID, then restore from backup (oy, 7TB). I see that I can do an mdadm --remove /dev/md0, then, the page I see that on, suggests zeroing the superblocks. What would happen if I *don't* zero the superblocks before doing an mdadm --create? Would I just wind up back where I am? mark

Where is everyone?

There's usually a lot more traffic here. Just today, I've started wondering if a lot of folks who are usually here are on furlough, with the US gov't shutdown.... If so, my condolences, folks. mark

Re: [CentOS] C7 and mdadm - apparently SOLVED
by mark 24 Jan '19

Looking around on the Web, what I just tried was to stop the RAID, then do an --assemble --scan, and *that* found everything, put the raid together, and appears to be rebuilding using the new drive. *phew* I do find it interesting that scan works, but explicitly assembling apparently remembers the drive that died, and wouldn't even look at it. mark

dmarc auth on incoming email
by Fred Smith 24 Jan '19

24 Jan '19

Just reading up on DMARC, toying with setting it up to auth against incoming emails. (but not configure my domain to use dmarc, or at least not yet) ran into an article about opendmarc, which is available on epel. but when I took a look at the opendmarc website and the git pages it doesn't appear to have been updated in several years. while I see that it is still available from epel, I wonder if anyone knows the project status? Is it still active? are there any other viable alternatives? thanks in advance!

C7 radeon driver
by mark 24 Jan '19

24 Jan '19

Hi, folks, We've been recently (the last few months) having issues on workstations with the radeon driver. A typical sample is this, from /var/log/messages: Jan 23 11:35:32 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: ring 0 stalled for more than 10000msec Jan 23 11:35:32 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU lockup (current fence id 0x0000000000000212 last fence id 0x0000000000000213 on ring 0) Jan 23 11:35:33 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: Saved 23 dwords of commands on ring 0. Jan 23 11:35:33 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: GPU softreset: 0x00000019 Jan 23 11:35:33 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: GRBM_STATUS = 0xE5303CA0 Jan 23 11:35:33 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: GRBM_STATUS_SE0 = 0xF4000007 Jan 23 11:35:33 <workstation> kernel: radeon 0000:03:00.0: GRBM_STATUS_SE1 = 0x00000007 ... The above system has a Cedar GL [FirePro 2270], while the other two have Radeon HD 8570 / R7 240/340, so it doesn't seem to be limited to one video card. Are other people seeing similar errors? Is this enough for a bug report? mark

C7 and mdadm
by mark 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

A user's system had a hard drive failure over the weekend. Linux RAID 6. I identified the drive, brought the system down (8 drives, and I didn't know the s/n of the bad one. why it was there in the box, rather than where I started looking...) Brought it up, RAID not working. I finally found that I had to do an mdadm --stop /dev/md0, then I could do an assemble, then I could add the new drive. But: it's now cat /proc/mdstat Personalities : [raid6] [raid5] [raid4] md0 : active (auto-read-only) raid5 sdg1[8](S) sdh1[7] sdf1[4] sde1[3] sdd1[2] sdc1[1] 23441313792 blocks super 1.2 level 5, 512k chunk, algorithm 2 [7/5] [_UUUU_U] bitmap: 0/30 pages [0KB], 65536KB chunk unused devices: <none> and I can't mount it (it's xfs, btw). *Should* I make it readwrite, or is there something else I should do? mark

Yum refuses to install kmod-8188eu from elrepo
by Marko Vojinovic 23 Jan '19

23 Jan '19

I am having trouble using the realtek wifi chip in my new tp-link usb wifi dongle. Upon plugging it, the device gets registered by the kernel (in /var/log/messages), but that's about it, no network device is being created (iwconfig does not see it, nothing else works). A few google searches later I found out that this realtek chip is not supported by the kernel and requires a driver, and that the driver is packaged for C7 as kmod-8188eu in elrepo. However, yum install kmod-8188eu refuses to install it (full yum output is here: https://pastebin.com/raw/vvak6FCU ), complaining that the following dependencies cannot be met: --> Processing Dependency: kernel(wireless_send_event) = 0xa02e7e03 for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_submit_urb) = 0x74c6ac58 for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_reset_device) = 0xddd0084e for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_put_dev) = 0xf709107c for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_kill_urb) = 0xa55bf715 for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_get_dev) = 0x372a41af for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_free_urb) = 0x739aecf4 for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_control_msg) = 0xd04e3a9e for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 --> Processing Dependency: kernel(usb_alloc_urb) = 0x12a4948e for package: kmod-8188eu-4.1.4_6773.20130222-4.el7_5.elrepo.x86_64 I've never seen such output from yum before --- I'm guessing it is asking for a kernel with specific "properties", and failing to find one. What is the best way to resolve this? Is there some kernel package somewhere that matches these properties, or is there some other package that provides these features to an existing kernel, or something else? Or should I just ditch the kmod, and compile the 8188eu driver from source? I'd prefer to avoid this if possible, since I am not a fan of recompiling it every time the kernel is updated in C7. And I might need to use the wifi dongle on multiple machines, anyway. I'd appreciate any suggestions! TIA, :-) Marko

by Akshar Kanak 22 Jan '19

Dear team I am running a centos guest VM which freezes for every few days . The qemu-kvm on shows 100% cpu utilization. Ping to the guest might work or may not work .Please can you tell me what approach can i take to debug it . using "virsh dump" I can dump the core of the guest vm but I am not sure how to analyse it . Guest Centos VM : "Linux GUESTCentOS70 3.10.0-123.4.4.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Jul 25 05:07:12 UTC 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" "CentOS Linux release 7.0.1406 (Core)" 1 vcpu and 2 GB ram Host machine : "Linux HOST 3.10.51-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64 #1 SMP Fri Aug 1 13:14:11 EDT 2014 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux" "CentOS release 6.5 (Final)" qemu-kvm package used : qemu-kvm-0.12.1.2-2.415.el6_5.10.x86_64 Thanks and regards Akshar

C7 and firewalld and ethernet bridge

Does someone have a link to a how-to-do-it with firewalld, not "disable firewalld and use iptables"? mark
