I can confirm that c6 is vulnerable, we're running a patched kernel
(local build) using a rhel6 adaptation of the upstream fix.

Libguestfs debugging issue
Hi. I am currently debugging an issue with libguestfs in Centos 7.2 (Kernel
3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.x86_64).
libguestfs is being called by SaltStack to access a qcow2 image, but it is
failing. I have narrowed the issue down to the command below:
guestmount -i -a /opt/vm-spinning/salt-mnt/salt-images/pb123/system.qcow2
--rw /tmp/guest/opt.vm-spinning.salt-mnt.salt-images.pb123.system.qcow2

kernel memory accounting
Hi CentOS experts,
I am using CentOS 7. Trying to disable kernel memory accounting:
according to https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/cgroup-v1/memory.txt,
passing cgroup.memory=nokmem to the kernel at boot time, should be able to
archive that.
However it is not the case in my exercise. These are what I have now
$ grep CONFIG_MEMCG_KMEM /boot/config-3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.x86_64

kernel memory accounting
First - why in the world would you want to disable kernel memory
accounting? I don't think that is even possible (despite not being a
kernel programmer myself) because the kernel must needs account for
every bit of real and virtual memory in the system in order to do its job.
Second - the first note in the doc to which you refer says that it is
hopelessly out of date and further down it

kmod-nvidia problems
Hi List,
I use the kmod-nvidia package on my CentOS workstations.
Always this has "just worked".
Doing a yum update this morning I now get this:

yum install fails - itertoolsmodule.so
Hi Gary,
That "Input/output error" suggests a disk problem to me. Does that file
/usr/lib64/python2.7/lib-dynload/itertoolsmodule.so actually exist and is
it readable?
Also look the the output of 'rpm -V python-libs' to see if rpm considers
the installed files to be corrupt.
If it's not that, then you could try 'yum reinstall python-libs'.

kernel memory accounting
I have 3.10 kernel. I am running some data processing job, need to first
copy big (>5 GB) input files. The jobs were killed, because the system
thought I used 5 GB memory from the file copying.

Sendmail Dovecot Trouble
I've been struggling trying to get Thunderbird to read e-mail off a
CentOS 7 server.
Sendmail writes mail in /var/spool/mail
I've configured dovecot to try to read from there using Thunderbird
(POP3/SMTP).
The firewall allows ports 25/110.
I verified I have mail in /var/spool/mail
but Thunderbird is unable to retrieve that mail.
I've googled sendmail / dovecot config, I've

where to get kernel source
Hi,
I search the following link, and find some kernel source rpm files, such as kernel-3.10.0-327.36.3.el7.src.rpm.
http://vault.centos.org/7.2.1511/updates/Source/SPackages/
But I can't find kernel-3.10.0-327.36.4.el7.src.rpm.
Thanks!

yum install fails - itertoolsmodule.so
I've just tried a yum update on one of my C7 boxes and got the following output.
I'm guessing to fix this I need to re-install the RPM, but I can't remove it because of dependancies, so how can I fix the problem?
I've managed to download a later version of the RPM, but haven't managed to find the same version as the one installed.

yum install fails - itertoolsmodule.so
Hi Paddy,
I was suspecting the same, and from the output below I think you're right. However, I was hoping I could just repair this problem for now, and worry about replacing the HDD later. I need to resume some services that also seem to generate this same error.

Initially, I just rebooted from LiveCD and left Grub,kernel and dracut do
their job with the defaults, but unfortunately, boot process stops at
initrd (dracut) stage with the following error:

Sendmail Dovecot Trouble
/var/mail is a symlink to /var/spool/mail
I tried both, neither works.
I just wiped out the server, reinstalled from scratch this time I
selected e-mail server while selecting packages after specifying
GUI-server on the CentOS install.
I had previously installed Dovecot after the initial server build.
This time Dovecot was installed and active at boot but still can't find

Wanted to report success, following this procedure:

At the bottom, I see something of a compatibility matrix, but a line
representing my specific setup does not exists. So I offer the following
data to show that it works in my environment.
