Personally, I'd rather see the v9fs beeing used for such purposes, and
perhaps
package parts of plan9ports, which includes libraries for writing the
user level fileservers.. :-)

I see. Then there must be something else to explain
the behavior I'm observing with slapd.
Each and every call to sched_yield() makes the process
sleep for over *50ms* while a "nice make bootstrap" is
running in the background:
[pid 8780] 0.000033 stat64("gidNumber.dbb", 0xb7b3ebcc) = -1 EACCES (Permission denied)
[pid 8780] 0.000059 pread(20, "\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\2\0\344\17\2\3"..., 4096, 4096) = 4096
[pid 8780] 0.000083 pread(20, "\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\4\0\0\0\3\0\0\0\0\0\0\0\222\0<\7\1\5\370"..., 4096, 16384) = 4096
[pid 8780] 0.000078 time(NULL) = 1124322520
[pid 8780] 0.000066 pread(11, "\0\0\0\0\1\0\0\0\250\0\0\0\231\0\0\0\235\0\0\0\16\0000"..., 4096, 688128) = 4096
[pid 8780] 0.000241 write(19, "0e\2\1\3d`\4$cn=bernie,ou=group,dc=d"..., 103) = 103
[pid 8780] 0.000137 sched_yield( <unfinished ...>
...zzzz...
[pid 8781] 0.050020 <... sched_yield resumed> ) = 0
[pid 8780] 0.000025 <... sched_yield resumed> ) = 0
[pid 8781] 0.000060 futex(0x925ab20, FUTEX_WAIT, 33, NULL <unfinished ...>
[pid 8780] 0.000026 write(19, "0\f\2\1\3e\7\n\1\0\4\0\4\0", 14) = 14
[pid 8774] 0.000774 <... select resumed> ) = 1 (in [19])
Actually, I'm now noticing that several slapd threads were
involved here. Depending how strace handles relative
timestamps of multiple processes, it may mean both 8780 and
8781 slept too much or just 8781 did and 8780 was quick.
Any idea? I'm planning to patch my kernel to print the
time_slice value in /proc/*/stat. This way I can check
it's being computed as intended for both slapd and gcc.

REQUEST: OpenLDAP 2.3.7
by Bernardo Innocenti
Hello,
OpenLDAP 2.2.26 has a scheduling bug that makes any query crawl
under moderate CPU load (even nice load).
This is again the usual sched_yield() behavior change that has
haunted OpenOffice and other applications.
This issue has been recently discussed on LKML and in OpenLDAP's
bug-tracking system. One of the authors recommends upgrading to
2.3.7. Is there a chance we can get this in rawhide or even FC4?

Move PyQt to Extras
by Konstantin Ryabitsev
Hello, all:
I am trying to package Eric IDE for Extras, but it requires that PyQt
is built with Qscintilla. I have added Qscintilla to extras, but I
cannot continue, since PyQt is in core, and can't depend on things in
Extras for a sub-package. So, either Qscintilla will have to be added
to Core, or, which is probably far more reasonable, PyQt could be
moved out of the Core to Extras.
I have checked, nothing requires PyQt in Core, and it really seems
like a package much more suitable for Extras. What do you say?
I'm willing to maintain it there, of course.
Cheers,

I appreciate Matheus's help, but installing a stock
kernel on a production server and waiting a few days
to see if the bug shows up is problematic for me.
I've already reviewed Fedora-specific changes in this
kernel and none of them appears to be related to my
problem. The only patch that comes close is:
linux-2.6.11-libata-promise-pata-on-sata.patch

Thanks for the suggestion. I think I'll leave it enabled
on the server. I've just compiled the netconsole module,
but it depends on the non-modular netpoll, so I'll have to
wait until next reboot in order to try it out.
By the way, the documentation doesn't say how to interface
with syslogd. Is it sufficient to use port 514 and turning
on the -r option?

libata / scsi layer in that kernel should be 1:1 to mainline
as of 2.6.12

I've just opened the case to install some more RAM and
noticed that the SATA controller card wasn't completely
fitted into the PCI slot. Could it be just a hardware
problem? I don't know what that assartion is about.
Nowadays, Fedora kernels don't differ much from stock
kernels plus the usual bugfixes. I've now upgraded to
2.6.13-1.1555-FC5 because it fixes an iptables bug.
I'll report if I see this bug again.

This is happening on our production server, and there are no
other computers next to it, so I can't easily hook in a
serial cable.
