Alternate way to fix test-255-disks.sh running out of memory. See previous discussion here: https://www.redhat.com/archives/libguestfs/2018-May/msg00082.html Rich.

With recent Linux kernels, adding and partitioning 255 disks causes the appliance to run out of memory. This causes a test failure in tests/disks/test-255-disks.sh. This change gives the appliance enough memory to complete the test. --- lib/guestfs-internal.h | 8 ++++---- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 4 deletions(-) diff --git a/lib/guestfs-internal.h b/lib/guestfs-internal.h index

Argon2 is the default LUKS Password-Based Key Derivation Function (PBKDF) for some new guests such as RHEL 8.2 and Fedora. It is designed to be "memory hard", meaning that by design it requires large amounts of memory, making it expensive to brute-force. Unfortunately the default for guests which had more than a few GB of RAM at install time is to require about 1 GB of RAM to decrypt

If you've ever tried to use this option, you'll know that it didn't work well. It broke random things (probably RHBZ#1020216, definitely RHBZ#1023630), and caused random failures generally, while often not actually failing when valgrind itself found problems. This does not remove the guestfs_internal_exit API. That will instead be modified in a future commit. ---

From: Pavel Butsykin <pbutsykin@virtuozzo.com> This patch improves the search of grub config on EFI partition. This means that the config will be found not only for rhel but also for many other distributions. Tests were performed on the following distributions: centos, fedora, ubuntu, suse. In all cases, the config path was /boot/efi/EFI/*distname*/grub.cfg The main purpose of the patch

Hi, All: I used optim() to minimise likelihood function for fitting the data to a partiuclar distribution. The function is converged and the value of log-likelihood is different when I change the intial value. Whether it means the program does not work well? Thanks!

These three patches (for discussion only, NOT to be applied) implement a mutex system that lets the user limit the number of libguestfs instances that can be launched per host. There are two uses that I have identified for this: firstly so we can enable parallel-tests (the default in automake >= 1.13) without blowing up the host. Secondly oVirt has raised concerns about how to limit the

Currently we are unable to properly run guestfsd (the daemon) under valgrind. Attempts to run valgrind inside the appliance have not been successful (see patch 1/7). However we desperately need better valgrind coverage of the daemon, particularly because it is doing a lot of complex parsing of program output. This has been a problem for a long time. A better way to attack this problem is to

I wonder if you're stil using this feature? Unfortunately because of a recent change in libvirt it is no longer possible to have a backing file where libvirt will autodetect the format. See:

Augeas 1.7.0 was released a couple of days ago. By encouraging everyone to upgrade to this we can drop several calls to aug_transform and also our custom copies of two lenses, and a lot of related code. Rich.

In v2: - Kernel command line parsing now moved to the appliance. - In the captive daemon test, the daemon cleanly shuts down on exit. - Add another btrfs test. Rich.

Use %d to parse them as int (since the variables for them as int) instead of %u, even if they both need to be at least > 0. --smp was already checked to be >= 1 while --memsize not, so check that the specified memory size is not < 128 (which is semi-arbitrary, but enough as a minimum threshold). --- rescue/rescue.c | 12 ++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 10 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
