--- Comment #1 from Jack Reed <jreed(a)redhat.com> ---
Hi Vasil,
Thanks for reporting these issues with the tuned documentation and for your
praise of the PMG. Much appreciated. :)
I'll respond point by point, and consult Jaroslav Skarvada for technical
assistance on a few of them.
In section “2.5. Tuned and ktune” right bellow the “yum install
tuned”
command it's written:
“Installing the tuned package also sets up a sample configuration file at
/etc/tuned.conf and activates the default profile.”
There is no such file in /etc. I found a /etc/tuned/active_profile file
containing the following: “/usr/lib/tuned/balanced/tuned.conf”. I'm not sure
this file (/etc/tuned.conf) is missing only on my system or it has a new
location by default for each profile - /usr/lib/tuned/profileX/tuned.conf.
Bellow in this section and in “2.5.1. The tuned.conf file” it is pointed
again that the default location for the tuned.conf file is /etc/tuned.conf.
The current man page for tuned.conf says "Profile is stored in
/etc/tuned/<profile_name>/tuned.conf or in
/usr/lib/tuned/<profile_name>/tuned.conf file where the /etc/tuned/ directory
has higher priority."
On my machine, tuned.conf is in /usr/lib/... .
Jaroslav, what does "where the /etc/tuned/ directory has higher priority"
mean? Does this mean both paths will need to be documented? That's fine, but I
would like a better idea of why there are two paths, because that wording is
unclear.
In section “2.5.2 Tuned-adm” in the first paragraph it is written
“Fedora 17
includes a number of predefined profiles for typical use cases...”. Just to
be precise it is good to be mentioned that these profiles are not installed
by default with “yum install tuned” command (tuned-2.0.1-1.fc17 package),
but can be found in tuned-profile-compat-2.0.1-1.fc17 package (I found it in
Gnome Package Manager).
No problem, Vasil. I will list which profiles are available in which package,
and document the new ones.
Another thing in this section is in the last third of the page where
it is
written:
“All the profiles are stored in separate subdirectories under
/etc/tune-profiles. So /etc/tune-profiles/desktop-powersave contains all the
necessary files and settings for that profile. Each of these directories
contains up to four files:”
There /etc/tune-profiles directory does not exist. Instead I found the
profiles stored in /run/lib/tuned.
Each directory for the corresponding profile typically contains only 2 files
- script.sh and tuned.conf. The presence of script.sh is not mentioned in
the directories contains description – it is mentioned ktune.sh insetad.
Jaroslav, I've confirmed this on my own machine. (See the end of section
2.5.2.)
Has script.sh replaced ktune.sh? If not, can you describe this file's purpose?
And will sysctl.ktune and ktune.sysconfig never be present and no longer need
to be documented?
Also, Jaroslav, I'm trying to update the documentation of tuned.conf (section
2.5.1). The man page suggests that the options available for the [main] and
plugin sections have changed.
For [main], the man page only lists include= . For plugins, the man page lists:
- type=
- devices=
- replace=1
Currently the PMG lists the following for [main]: interval, verbose, logging,
and logging_disable.
For plugins, it lists: enabled, verbose, and logging
My question is, are the options the PMG currently lists still available and
have just been joined by those in the man page? Or have they been deprecated?
My tuned.conf files are fairly minimal so I can't tell if any of these options
remain available.
Thanks in advance.
