Sat Aug  7 19:04:04 UTC 2021
a/aaa_glibc-solibs-2.33-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
a/usbutils-014-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
ap/mariadb-10.6.4-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
ap/nvme-cli-1.15-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
l/glibc-2.33-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
  Since glibc-2.34 makes a potentially risky change of moving all functions
  into the main library, and another inconvenient (for us) change of renaming
  the library files, we'll stick with glibc-2.33 for Slackware 15.0 and test
  the newer glibc in the next release cycle. But we'll backport the security
  fixes from glibc-2.34 with this update:
  The nameserver caching daemon (nscd), when processing a request for netgroup
  lookup, may crash due to a double-free, potentially resulting in degraded
  service or Denial of Service on the local system. Reported by Chris Schanzle.
  The mq_notify function has a potential use-after-free issue when using a
  notification type of SIGEV_THREAD and a thread attribute with a non-default
  affinity mask.
  The wordexp function may overflow the positional parameter number when
  processing the expansion resulting in a crash. Reported by Philippe Antoine.
  For more information, see:

l/glibc-i18n-2.33-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
l/glibc-profile-2.33-x86_64-3.txz:  Rebuilt.
l/liburing-2.0-x86_64-1.txz:  Added.
  This is needed by mariadb, and provides increased performance on high speed
  devices such as NVMe.
n/dovecot-2.3.16-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
xap/blueman-2.2.2-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.

An interesting addition there is liburing. A userspace library for interfacing with the kernel's io_uring system for asynchronous i/o.

What is io_uring? It's basically a ring buffer for userspace to send operations to for asynchronous queuing, with submission and completion events. It avoids context switching and copying data between kernel and userspace (because it's a shared buffer). Essentially, the end result is that the CPU can go do something else sooner.

An obstacle to using it was that applications had to interface with io_ring themselves. Now that there's a library abstraction, more applications may start using it.

MariaDB was mentioned, but also Samba has a module that can be built if liburing is present. Recent Qemu can make use of it as well.

the newer glibc in the next release cycle.
I wonder if any of the linux from scratch crowd (Nobby6?) has tried implementing glibc-2.34 and if perhaps its not as problematic a move as it might at first seem?

Just more of a curiosity, I know that staying at glibc-2.33 this close to a 15.0 release makes sense.

I tried a glibc-2.33 to 2.34 upgrade on LFS, and it seemed to go OK without any other rebuilds. It was an install > remove > ldconfig procedure with this homemade package manager. The biggest caveat is that I was using development LFS, which has symlinks for /bin, /sbin and /lib.

And I 100% agree that not pulling the trigger on glibc yet is sensible. It takes much more comprehensive testing to get the upgrade done if you're in charge of a distribution and not just "some guy." :)7

EDIT: The upgrade also worked with actual /bin, etc.

Hey everyone, long time no see! No, I wasn't out fishing. Sadly, I haven't had
a fishing rod in my hand (or even a fishing license in my wallet) for this
entire season, but there may yet be a chance for that this year. Along with the
usual suspects, I've been trying to clear out the list of things that needed
to get done in order to reach the standard of excellence demanded from a
Slackware release, and I think we've gotten it pretty close. GCC was bumped to
version 11.2.0 (because we just can't send this out 2 versions behind), and
everything was verified to build properly or fixed up so that it did. I don't
see any benefit to another public mass rebuild, so we're not going to do one.
Anyway, without further ado, here is Slackware 15.0 release candidate one.
Consider most things frozen and the focus now to be any remaining blocker bugs.
We'll more than likely take that next Plasma bugfix release, but it's soon
time to get off this treadmill. Enjoy! :-)

ap/mariadb-10.5.12-x86_64-1.txz:  Upgraded.
  Looks like we're still hitting a few regressions in the 10.6 branch. The
  most obvious one where the version reported by MariaDB is the library
  version rather than the server version (as previously reported) could be
  reverted, but this could lead to future problems as fixes for this
  change land in other projects. It seems that the safest approach at this
  time is to switch back to the most recent release from the 10.5 branch
  and keep an eye on the situation.

Since then, a fix has been found for both firefox and falkon (did the fix for FF - still need to patch and rebuild qtwebengine).

Also i couldn't build fuse2 - don't have a fix for that yet. Staying with 2.33 sounds prudent for Slack.

Changelog seems to be marching along as per usual; anything blocking a full release or perhaps another release candidate with full feature freeze?

ttk 09-12-2021 02:29 AM

Looks to me like Volkerding's mostly fixing problems as feedback trickles in from the community.

Debugging is the least predictable part of any project. I'm guessing we'll see more of the same until the problem reports stop arriving, then either another RC or a stable release.

As he said, we should end up with an LTS kernel
So we have to wait, most probably, for the 5.15 kernel
Which would be, at least, a very good timing

That's not how I interpreted the Changelog:

Code:

Mon Jun 7 18:53:49 UTC 2021
Hey folks! Sorry about the delay in getting this batch out but I had other
distractions going on here last week that prevented getting this one wrapped
up. Anyway, probably the highlight of this update set is that we've decided
to abandon the 5.10 LTS kernel in favor of following the latest one. We've
never really had a policy that required LTS in a stable release although that
is how it has been done for years
, but based on comments from the Slackware
community it seems like 5.10 LTS isn't getting a lot of love and lacks
hardware support that people need now. Conversely, the reports on 5.12 have
been almost entirely positive, so we're going to provide what we think is the
best available kernel. It's unlikely that we'll see another LTS prior to
release, so the plan for maintenance is to keep following the latest kernels
as needed for security purposes. If that means we have to jump to a new branch
while supporting the stable release, we'll start the kernel out in testing
first until we've had some feedback that it's safe to move it to the patches
directory. Sooner or later we will end up on an LTS kernel again, and at that
point we'll just roll with that one.
Feel free to comment (or complain) about
this plan on LQ... I'll be curious to see what people think. Anyway, enjoy!

In other words: Release 15.0, continue upgrading kernels until an LTS is released, then stick with it.

I agree, but :
the fact is that we know more or less when the 5.15 kernel will be available.
which is not really the case for Slackware 15.0

NB: of course, if 5.15 is the next LTS...

In case anyone's curious about wget2 features, according to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wget#Wget2 it offers http/2, http compression, parallel connections, if-modified-since support and tcp fast open.

I assume parallel connections to one server, unlike aria2, which allows you to download, for example, an ISO from multiple servers in parallel, or am I wrong?

I assume this too.

And those parallel connections are today basically useless because the servers hate them and kicks you out. ;)

Sounds fair. But I would have expected a Release Candidate to have a freeze on newer developments such as an updated kernel and a concentration only on debugging existing features? Bear in mind as well that the RC 1 was declared about a month ago: Mon Aug 16.

Can wget1 and wget2 coexist without collisions? Maybe we need to manually uninstall the first version? What's the point of having installed both versions?

yes, there are no overlaps: check the content of the two packages with less
Code:

less /var/log/packages/wget-*
less /var/log/packages/wget2-*

they are different in functionalities and wget2 ships also libraries that other applications may link to.

Yes, they can co-exist. Since some of the options are different, we're keeping wget1 (for as long as it's maintained, probably) to avoid breaking any existing scripts.

EDIT: Also ponce beat me to it ;)

Just a heads up for anyone who might be running named with custom options in /etc/default/named, dont forget to combine them with the new "-u $BIND_USER" option. If you have logging diverted elsewhere (i.e. NAMED_OPTIONS="-u $BIND_USER -L /var/log/bind"), dont forget to change ownership of the log file to named:named (or whatever your named user is).
