How about changing
Code:

--enable-kernel=2.6.32
to
Code:

--enable-kernel=3.2
in glibc.SlackBuild .
Seen here http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/...r05/glibc.html.
Quote:

--enable-kernel=3.2

This tells Glibc to compile the library with support for 3.2 and later Linux kernels. Workarounds for older kernels are not enabled.

ponce 02-24-2019 11:31 AM

if I remember correctly I think it was set to 2.6.32 for compatibility with openvz.

it's true that there's a new openvz around based on kernel 3.10 but I'm not sure how many providers are supporting the newer version already (also because in their wiki is still labeled as "testing").

Eh, I'm all for breaking some of the groups up (eg, I don't think there should be any KDE related libs in 'l') but I don't think this particular one is necessary. Email server packages are very discrete and you can just easily delete the 2 or 3 you don't need. slackpkg install-new will never try to re-add them to the system, unless a whole new email server package is introduced.

Packages series are a remnant of the floppy disk era anyway. Not that useful in 2019 IMO.

But you can still make your customized tag files without changing the default ones for Everybody (on which presumably Everybody won't agree), this is authorized by The Laws of Slackware ;)

Mr. Didier, you know well that's a so big big lie, that's worth of mainstream UK politicians - then permit me to dare to differ. They are exceptionally useful right now.

The packages series are the last thing which keeps a bit of sanity for those not interested to install either KDE or XFCE, or even Emacs, while they are not interested to thinker with Slackware every night.

I am very sorry to disappoint you, but even I used Slackware since long years, still I do not started even one time an Apache webserver and the FTP servers never interested me. The mail servers interested me even less.

So, why I should have them installed in my computer, as simple user not interested to study the Slackware packages and their mighty dependencies, but just to use the Slackware as is? Aren't they just useless bloat for someone like me?

Didier Spaier 02-24-2019 03:52 PM

Hello

Well, this has been discussed so many times... Doing a full installation does not imply that you have to use all the software in it. Nobody does.

Let me give you a counter example. In Slint a full installation is mandatory, only KDE being optional. I have a blind friend who uses it and never starts X. He uses only ttys through a Braille device, mostly using Emacs and doing maths (he is a former math teacher), also listening music, reading books and doing some shell scripting. However he never complained that Slint ships software that he will never use. He just doesn't care.

As an aside there are other ways to strip down a Slackware system, e.g. you can install just the bare minimum, install slapt-get, include in /etc/slapt-get/slapt-getrc the repository http://slackware.uk/salix/x86_64/slackware-14.2/ as main SOURCE of package, run:
slapt-get --add-keys
slapt-get -u
slapt-get -i <package that you want to add>
and you will get this package and its dependencies.

This works 99.47% of the time ;)

Also, bear in mind that Pat guarantees that you won't miss any dependency *only* if you make a full installation.

I won't post again here on this topic in this thread, sorry to have contributed to derail it.

Best,

SCerovec 02-25-2019 03:04 AM

In the era of virtualization and containers there are ever more use cases where even the a, n and l series are over ones head.
Then this MX example. Also I find the KDE, KDEi and XFCE extremely useful and well thought out.

Floppies being obsolete, there really might be some reordering and reconsidering of the series down the road? Maybe, at least, for the time after the 15.0 hits the streets?

I for one would like to see bare(i'm short of better name right now) series with a minimal system able to only boot, install and be ssh-d into.

dalacor 02-25-2019 06:34 AM

I am fully aware that raising the issue of reviewing the install categories is a bit contentious as many people will disagree as to what application goes in which folder and what categories is considered necessary to run a modern system.

When I was looking at the n folder, I noticed that there were at least half a dozen to a dozen email programs. It's not a problem to install them but if you never use them, then it doesn't make sense to install them as it defeats the point of the categories. It just seemed to me that it should be in an Mx category because if you want to install a mail server/client you most likely would only want one installed.

I disagree that the categories should be viewed soley as from the floppy disk days. Being able to only install the bare minimum to run slackware plus the packages that you actually want is one of the things that I like most about Slackware in a age of software bloat. Because its a server running a filtering system, I don't need x, xap and kde etc. So I very much like the category concept.

It's certainly not a high priority agreed, but eventually reviewing the install categories and considering new categories or renaming/removing old categories should be looked at as computer usage has evolved quite considerably since these categories were created.

It's not something available on the installer, but take a look at the LXC Slackware template. It contains a very minimal set of packages.

The point of running it as an actual install series (or supplying an tag for an equivalent install instead) is the actual use and purpose of such a feature.

And don't think x86 only ;)

Maybe Slackware could endorse and ship a tag-file of said package list?

While it might be true that keeping package sets helps with people to uninstall things, what Didier stated wasn't a lie. Pat doesn't intend for them to be used that way.

Sometimes an inventor of something doesn't always understand how useful their invention is. Or the scope of its usefulness. I think package groups are an example of this. Mr. Volkerding may not have intended for them to be used and managed the way they are in practice, but the fact of the matter is that they are, and if they were cut, many, many, users would complain.

I don't think Mr. Volkerding will ultimately cut them out. It would violate the POLA (principle of least astonishment) which is an overarching principle I believe he takes much more seriously than any opinions he may hold on package groups.

I totally agree with this, he hasn't intended for them to be used this way, even if they are. I also don't think he opposes to them being used this way, but I don't think he cares to support people who think this is some form of dependency control within Slackware. Overall, I don't foresee him removing them, but I also don't see him going out of his way to change them to fit with requests people have on here.

But this is just my 2 cents...

igadoter 02-25-2019 12:38 PM

If things are to grow then they have to start their own life. No matter what was meant for them at the beginning. The diversity temporary/permanent is also well-known. Apache comes as I read somewhere from patches. So what was the meaning of package series now is of no importance. I was terrified by senseless pool in Debian - nightmare.

Add initrd (or linux-firmware) functionality for packaging up CPU Microcode...?
 
How about enhancing "mkinitrd" to (optionally) package up CPU microcode and include it in the initrd? I think this is worthwhile since mitigations for vulnerabilities like Spectre/Meltdown may be included, and not all vendors issue BIOS/UEFI updates in a timely manner.

I know there is the "-P" option to include a pre-prepared CPU microcode archive, but there's no immediately obvious way of creating the required archive.
It would be handy if mkinitrd could detect the CPU type and package up the relevant microcode. Alternatively, perhaps the kernel-firmware package install script could create the relevant archives in /boot for Intel and AMD CPUs at least?

Example:

For AMD, I've been using this little script for years. I didn't write it, and I can't recall the original source. The resulting archive can be used with the -P switch, or be manually prepended to your initrd.

Code:

#! /bin/sh
set -x
set -e

LIB=/lib/firmware/amd-ucode/
TDIR=kernel/x86/microcode
CPIO=/boot/amd-ucode.cpio

echo "Create the $CPIO file from the $LIB directory of files"
rm -rf  /tmp/amd-ucode-cpio
mkdir -p /tmp/amd-ucode-cpio
cd      /tmp/amd-ucode-cpio
mkdir -p  $TDIR
find $LIB -type f -name \*bin | sort | xargs cat > $TDIR/AuthenticAMD.bin
find . | cpio --no-absolute-filenames -H newc -o -F $CPIO

#echo Remember to do:
#echo  cat $CPIO initrd.gz \> initrd.new
#echo ...and run "lilo", etc...                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
exit

It works well, eg with my Ryzen 2700x I see:
Code:

[    6.851888] microcode: CPU15: patch_level=0x0800820b

Similarly, it updates the ucode on my older AMD Phenom CPU for which no BIOS update is available.

Thanks!

Not true re AMD microcode being loaded automatically on boot. I have two AMD systems, one running Slackware-current and one running 14.2. Both are running Pat's stock kernels and neither update the microcode automatically despite there being an update available in /lib/firmware. I have to manually build the AMD cpio archive and add it to initrd.

What you show above is the original microcode version loaded by the BIOS/UEFI. There's no message about it being updated (early or late). Compare your output with mine - you're missing a line like this:
Code:

[    6.841445] microcode: microcode updated early to new patch_level=0x0800820b
If a "late" update is done, you'd see a microcode entry with a "new patch_level=" message.

Now, it's possible yours is at the latest version, but I don't think it will update automatically if one becomes available.
You can try to force a "late" update by running:

Code:

echo 1 > /sys/devices/system/cpu/microcode/reload
...but there are some issues with "late" updates: For example if the ucode changes the CPU feature flags it can lead to a situation where flags which were advertised at boot are removed, or conversely extra flags are added; neither of which is well handled. Therefore "early" updates via the initrd are preferred.

More details in /usr/src/linux/Documentation/x86/microcode.txt which says the distribution should do it. Quote:

Here's a crude example how to prepare an initrd with microcode (this is

Perhaps thinking about it a different way would help. If you take Windows Server for example. When you install Windows Server, you install either core (no gui) or full (with gui). Then on top of that after you have installed Windows Server, you can install Roles such as active directory, DNS, DHCP, WSUS, WDS and so on.

Slackware does it better in that you can get rid of a lot more bloat by removing e, f, k, kde, tcl etc.

I think of a,d l and n as basically windows server core and ap as features that I can install. However a lot of Server roles seem to be in n by default eg mx servers.

I agree with Pat on one point. It's pointless arguing what should go in a, ap, d, l etc. And it's not a high priority. But I still see value in a core, full install and adding additional roles in the way windows server does it.

Anyway, if the developer sees this, he can decide what he wants to do if anything and I will be happy with whatever he comes up with as long as one can still do a bare minimum install as it were as many users like myself don't need a gui desktop server install.

Didier Spaier 02-27-2019 04:12 AM

@dalacor: Salix does something similar to what you suggest, with a choice between:
  • Core (minimal console system)
  • Basic (minimal graphical environment)
  • Full (everything)
The content of Full depends on the edition (graphical environment), cf.: https://github.com/gapan/iso-creation

I suggest to not bug Pat with requests for doing something similar, but volunteers could just set up a repository of customized tag files (on github, gitlab, whatever), that interested users could download, store on an USB stick, then use that during installation instead of the standard tag files, as the Slackware installer allows.

Please! I suggest a poll, "Do you have an interest in Slackware tag files? Yes/No", to test what proportion of the community actually thinks this is important.
Personally, my answer is a flat no. But I am not trying to provision containers or run on limited hardware or limit attack surface or be a hairy chested CLI user.

I know I checked this when I first read of Ryzen microcode updates being pushed for Spectre and I'm pretty sure that I found that my microcode was updated based on what was in the linux-firmware package (but this was a long time ago, and my memory isn't what it used to be). I'm guessing the microcode was updated when ASRock pushed out their latest firmware update for my board so it now isn't being loaded by the kernel (or possibly some kernel change that broke late loading). I'll have to keep an eye on this. According to Gentoo, I'm running the latest microcode for my CPU.

No problem here. I've verified that the code calling major() and minor() is not #ifdefed out.

However, the package build without this patch may fails (this is a fatal error). I was able to get the package only after adding this patch. Before that, every time I got the xorg-server.failed file instead of a package.

Personally, my answer is a flat no. But I am not trying to provision containers or run on limited hardware or limit attack surface or be a hairy chested CLI user.

gtk+3.0 wayland-backends
 
I was wondering if during the next development cycle of Slackware 15, gtk-3.0 gets upgraded, could it be built with wayland-backends enabled? This would not require wayland itself, only wayland-protocols and wayland-egl, both are in SBO.

willysr 02-28-2019 05:38 PM

It's already using the latest GTK+3

Then can it be rebuilt?

Code:

CFLAGS="$SLKCFLAGS" \
./configure \
  --prefix=/usr \
  --libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  --sysconfdir=/etc \
  --mandir=/usr/man \
  --enable-xkb \
  --enable-x11-backend \
  --enable-wayland-backend \
  --build=$ARCH-slackware-linux || exit 1

Is there any reason to not update to eudev-3.2.7? It resolves a trivial, but annoying issue here where when I use my Sony Playstation3 Controller with a program that uses libinput (i.e. wine) it prints this for every button press filling the logs with garbage.

Code:

(EE) libinput bug: Event for missing capability CAP_POINTER on device "Sony PLAYSTATION(R)3 Controller"
For more info please see this libinput issue where it was debugged.

I'd like to have binutils (libbfd, in particular) built with --enable-targets=all instead of how it's currently set up. This will make objdump and other tools more capable of picking apart various other executables and libraries.

Anyone know what causes this, from ./configure (autoconf), compiling libaacs in -current:

Code:

configure: WARNING:
***
*** The config script /usr/bin/libgcrypt-config was
*** built for x86_64-slackware-linux-gnu and thus may not match the
*** used host x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
*** You may want to use the configure option --with-libgcrypt-prefix
*** to specify a matching config script.
***

maybe this is not the proper topic, you better open a new one...

BTW, I don't know which SlackBuild you are using but libaacs from SBo seems to build fine for me on slackware64-current.

Seems related.

https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/6360

Edit: The easiest method seems to be just add a 'kvm' group...

Shouldn't be an issue now anyway.

Code:
