schestowitz"Jan 03 16:29
schestowitz    I don’t think Debian will allow that going forward.Jan 03 16:29
schestowitzOne of the major reasons during the endless war cited by DPL to bring peace was Jessie freeze is done, there is nothing which could be done for jessie. #stretch should support alternate init daemon or maybe thanks to devuan splitting up it allw ent no where.Jan 03 16:29
schestowitz"Jan 03 16:29
MinceReven if they allowed it in stretch, there would be no knowing what they would fuck upJan 03 16:33
MinceRit's not reasonable to rely on an allegedly stable distro that randomly fucks up with things like systemdJan 03 16:34
oiaohmMinceR: chicken vs egg class problem.   systemd shim is still in testing with the option to put back sysvinit with debian.Jan 03 16:51
MinceRno, it's the problem of having no understanding what a "stable release" meansJan 03 16:51
oiaohmStable release is not strictly defined.Jan 03 16:52
MinceRtherefore it should be meaningless?Jan 03 16:52
MinceRwe already had such distrosJan 03 16:52
MinceRlike archJan 03 16:52
oiaohmDebian even in the stable release the option to switch back to sysvinit.Jan 03 16:53
MinceRyeah, either removing a ton of packages you'd be using, or not actually removing systemdJan 03 16:53
oiaohmDebian did not just jump to systemd and not provide an option of going back.Jan 03 16:53
MinceRand even if you have it remove a lot of packages, you'll still have libsystemd aroundJan 03 16:53
oiaohmsystemd-shim was being used before systemd was default.Jan 03 16:54
MinceRyeah, they provided hobson's choiceJan 03 16:54
oiaohmReally distrobutions have done that for years.Jan 03 16:55
oiaohmSo exactly what is new about that.Jan 03 16:55
oiaohmMinceR: don't you remember when debian added parrall booting to sysvinit Jan 03 16:56
oiaohmThat was before systemd by a long way.Jan 03 16:56
MinceRso we've arrived at the "systemd is not a big deal" stageJan 03 16:56
oiaohmMinceR parallel  booting sysvinit  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/initscripts-ng-devel/2005-September/000212.html  2005Jan 03 16:58
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-lists.alioth.debian.org | Please test parallel booting in new sysvinit version [ http://ur1.ca/odky8 ]Jan 03 16:58
MinceRdid parallel booting come with its own version of udev, [x]inetd, crond, atd, syslogd, firewall, bootloader, dns cache, webserver, container provisioner and ntpd built into it?Jan 03 16:58
MinceRdid parallel booting come with a set of unstable undocumented APIs desktop environments depended on?Jan 03 16:59
oiaohmNo it did not but it could effectively snap everyone of those by loading them in the wrong order.Jan 03 16:59
MinceRif you can't understand that these things don't belong in an init/rc system, i don't think we have anything to discussJan 03 16:59
oiaohmThat is just your point of view.Jan 03 17:00
oiaohmLot of system parts are independant binaries.Jan 03 17:01
oiaohmsystemd meant there.Jan 03 17:01
oiaohmSo not in fact built into the init section of the code.Jan 03 17:01
MinceRwith poettering's definition of "independent"Jan 03 17:01
MinceRi guess without understanding the fundamentals of software engineering, it's impossible to understand why the entire concept of systemd is brokenJan 03 17:01
oiaohmThen the concept that busybox is based on is broken.Jan 03 17:02
oiaohmSoftware engineering does not forbid a solution having all those parts provided as part of 1 project.Jan 03 17:03
oiaohmSoftware engineering does get upset with the lack of clear separation of parts inside project.Jan 03 17:03
oiaohmMinceR: if you had done software engineering you would know picking out that it has lots of different features provided is not a fault.Jan 03 17:04
oiaohmAlso the desktop like gnome did not use undocumented functions.    They used documented and not defined stable yet.Jan 03 17:06
MinceRif you had any valid arguments for systemd, you wouldn't need to twist my words to make it seem like you had any.Jan 03 17:06
oiaohmMinceR: one of the things about systemd api/abi is that is is very well documents.Jan 03 17:06
oiaohmdocumented.Jan 03 17:07
MinceRthen i must have dreamed the warning about unstable APIsJan 03 17:07
MinceRand that the implementer of LoginKit found that gdm uses those unstable APIsJan 03 17:07
oiaohmSomething can be documented and unstable.Jan 03 17:07
MinceReven though they're not supposed to be usedJan 03 17:07
MinceRalso, looks like you haven't seen the source code of systemdJan 03 17:07
oiaohmSystemd is documented and unstable in api/abis.Jan 03 17:07
oiaohmI have been though the source code and the documententation.Jan 03 17:07
oiaohmThey do line up.Jan 03 17:08
oiaohmAlso MinceR tell me where is systemd automatic build server to set every patch submitted.   That right it does not have one.Jan 03 17:08
oiaohmto set/ to testJan 03 17:09
MinceR"we do not test for this"Jan 03 17:09
oiaohmThat is a breach of software engineering.Jan 03 17:09
oiaohmFor something as critical as a init system you would think setting up automatic build systems with fault checking would be the first thing todo.Jan 03 17:10
MinceRor you could actually keep it as simple as possibleJan 03 17:11
oiaohmSorry noJan 03 17:11
oiaohmEven as simple as possible a person can human error doing a patch MinceRJan 03 17:11
MinceRyeah, it's impossibleJan 03 17:11
MinceRas shown by several examples people have doneJan 03 17:11
MinceRmaybe it's impossible for poettering to keep the design and the code simpleJan 03 17:12
oiaohmEvery init system with a automatic build server  has out done those without.Jan 03 17:12
MinceRsince he worships complexityJan 03 17:12
MinceRjust like the drones at m$Jan 03 17:12
oiaohmDebian internally build and modified sysvinit had been running a quality control build server.Jan 03 17:13
oiaohmSo like it or not a automatic build and QA like cppcheck run over server applies just as much to sysvinit as systemd or any other init system you could name.Jan 03 17:14
oiaohmNumber of faults cppcheck finds in systemd is insane.Jan 03 17:15
MinceRunsurprisingJan 03 17:15
MinceRconsidering that it's  a) massive and   b) written by idiotsJan 03 17:15

-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-git.suckless.org | sinit - suckless initJan 03 17:16
MinceRthis doesn't look like it needs a lot of patching, automatic building or checkingJan 03 17:16
MinceRand it isn't even minimalJan 03 17:16
MinceRiirc someone pasted an init on irc which was an oneliner in cJan 03 17:18
MinceRs/an o/a o/Jan 03 17:18
oiaohmOk even that has something that can raise warning http://linux.die.net/man/2/_exitJan 03 17:20
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-linux.die.net | _exit(2): terminate calling process - Linux man pageJan 03 17:20
oiaohmMinceR: code contains no clear explain why _exit was used over using normal exit.    "atexit(3)" "on_exit(3)" can in fact be used inside the libcJan 03 17:22
oiaohmMinceR: even a what appears to be a super simple init can be using functions it should not be and cause extra effects because of it.Jan 03 17:23
MinceR181655 < MinceR> and it isn't even minimalJan 03 17:23
oiaohminit system is limited on how minimal it can be.Jan 03 17:24
oiaohmOr it will not respond to signals correctly.Jan 03 17:24
MinceRint main(void) { if (fork()) while (1) wait(NULL); else execl("/etc/rc", "rc", NULL); }Jan 03 17:25
oiaohmInvalid by posix standards.Jan 03 17:25
oiaohmsinit was valid by standards.Jan 03 17:25
MinceRwill build and function correctlyJan 03 17:26
oiaohmNo it will not function correctly.Jan 03 17:26
oiaohmSIGCHLD, sigreap  note that in sinit.Jan 03 17:26
MinceRcitation neededJan 03 17:26
oiaohmThat is to reap zombie processes.Jan 03 17:26
MinceRthat's what the while (1) wait(NULL); doesJan 03 17:26
oiaohmNoJan 03 17:27
oiaohmThat leaves zombie processes a live not killing them off.Jan 03 17:27
oiaohm SIGUSR1, sigpoweroff  and SIGINT,  sigreboot  is also required by standard.Jan 03 17:28
MinceRthat functionality can be implemented outside pid1Jan 03 17:28
oiaohmIn fact no.Jan 03 17:28
MinceRin fact yesJan 03 17:28
oiaohmPosix standard says those have to be sent to PID 1Jan 03 17:28
MinceRtell me more about how systemd doesn't violate posixJan 03 17:29
*pidgin_log (~roy@86.157.133.86) has joined #boycottnovellJan 03 17:31
MinceRiirc the only reason sysvinit needs these signals is so it won't try to respawn processes while you're trying to shut downJan 03 17:31
MinceRother than that, you can in fact kill all processes other than pid1 and yourself, remount filesystems readonly and shutdown or rebootJan 03 17:32
oiaohmJust because there are other ways does not mean you cannot magically do what was written into the standard.Jan 03 17:35
MinceRyou might also want to talk about how merged /usr doesn't violate the FHS, while you're at itJan 03 17:35
oiaohmEven smf bare min init can perform those 3 signals.Jan 03 17:35
MinceRnobody caresJan 03 17:35
MinceRalso, iirc back when SMF used a separate init, that did in fact respawn SMF properJan 03 17:35
oiaohmThe zombie one is important.Jan 03 17:36
MinceRso of course it had to have a role in shutting downJan 03 17:36
MinceRthe oneliner reaps zombiesJan 03 17:36
MinceRironically enough, systemd doesn'tJan 03 17:36
oiaohmWhat version systemd.Jan 03 17:36
oiaohmThe correct statement is for a while systemd did not reap zombies.Jan 03 17:37
MinceRhttps://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41625Jan 03 17:37
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-bugs.freedesktop.org | Bug 41625 – systemd apparently doesn't reap zombiesJan 03 17:37
MinceRby then it was already deemed "stable" enough to force on fedora usersJan 03 17:38
oiaohmMinceR: really quoting bugs to sound good.Jan 03 17:39
schestowitzhttps://twitter.com/tecknocrat/status/683699612465541120Jan 03 17:39
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@tecknocrat: @schestowitz But was it really $400k. Probably $400k less commission !?¿!¡ .......🙄Jan 03 17:39
oiaohmMinceR: please that bug was closed by author because it turned out not to be a systemd fault at all.Jan 03 17:40
MinceRaccording to the authorJan 03 17:40
MinceRwho's an incompetent nutcaseJan 03 17:40
MinceRclosing bugs without fixing them is business as usual at systemdJan 03 17:41
oiaohmBut not this case.Jan 03 17:41
oiaohmBecause systemd behavour with zombie processes is the same as sysvinit and yes particular cases sysvinit leaks zombies as well.Jan 03 17:42
oiaohmsinit systemd and sysvinit behavour with a zombie would be fairly much identical.Jan 03 17:42
MinceRat least sysvinit doesn't take 35MB of code to do thatJan 03 17:42
MinceRand isn't forced on anyoneJan 03 17:42
MinceRcitation neededJan 03 17:43
oiaohmReally SIGCHLD is the key to zombie reaping when zombie process is reparented to pid1Jan 03 17:44

oiaohmMinceR: sorry there are a lot of case of people picking out what sounded like critical bugs in systemd that turn out to be in fact nothing different to sysvinit behavour.Jan 03 17:45
MinceRsorry, that doesn't justify this huge, hostile blob partly in pid1, blocking other system componentsJan 03 17:46
oiaohmReally picking on systemd size does not mean you have to use bogus points MinceRJan 03 17:47
MinceRreally, systemd has more issues than you'd like to admitJan 03 17:47
oiaohmSorry I do admit to issues in systemd quite critical ones like poor QA process.Jan 03 17:47
MinceRand the funny thing is, it doesn't even make booting faster in all casesJan 03 17:47
oiaohmI will say too much in pid 1Jan 03 17:48
oiaohmLike processing unit files that should not be in pid1Jan 03 17:48
MinceR> systemd took ~5 minutes to boot on one of our SOCs running fedoraJan 03 17:48
MinceR> ubuntu took ~30 secondsJan 03 17:48
MinceR> it was using upstart iircJan 03 17:48
MinceRsomeone else had an issue of boot taking over 40 minutes with systemdJan 03 17:48
oiaohmYep mono threading vs multi threading.Jan 03 17:49
MinceRkind of problematic when one of the main talking points was that systemd makes booting so fastJan 03 17:49
oiaohmNow do you know what section of systemd is mono threaded that cripples the bugger.Jan 03 17:49
MinceReven aside the fact that making booting faster while also sometimes making it fail entirely is not a good tradeoffJan 03 17:49
oiaohmCome on MinceRJan 03 17:49
MinceRi'm not sure if anyone knowsJan 03 17:49
oiaohmanswer do you know the section or not.Jan 03 17:50
MinceRit's a mess like m$ products, i doubt anyone understands the whole thing anymoreJan 03 17:50
oiaohmThe answer is stupidly simple.Jan 03 17:50
oiaohmupstart multi threaded processes it configuration files systemd does not.Jan 03 17:50
oiaohmSingle threaded sysvinit is slower than systemd in almost all cases.Jan 03 17:52
oiaohmMinceR: Do you know the one case where systemd is slower than sysvinit single threaded Jan 03 17:52
MinceR> 20 minutes after reboot it starts replying to pingsJan 03 17:54
MinceR> sounds like standard systemd startup time to meJan 03 17:54
MinceRtotally worth it!Jan 03 17:54
oiaohmMinceR: simple enough edit a unit file in systemd attempt to use it triggers current system to re read every unit file.Jan 03 17:54
oiaohmMinceR: of course editing a sysvinit init file is never that nasty.Jan 03 17:54
MinceRi also wonder how long booting takes if systemd gives up on waiting for fsck resumes booting while fsck is still runningJan 03 17:55
MinceRand what the result isJan 03 17:55
oiaohmIn fact that is not a performance hit.Jan 03 17:55
oiaohmparallel boot sysvinit in debian back in 2006 it was expermented with booting with fsck still running in background. Jan 03 17:56
MinceRi think you'll find the fs becoming corrupted due to fsck and the fs driver writing to it at the same time will cause data loss and some things to stop workingJan 03 17:57
oiaohmNot at all.Jan 03 17:57
MinceRwhich may well result in the boot process never finishingJan 03 17:57
oiaohmsystemd leaves filesystems still being fsck in read only.Jan 03 17:57
MinceRhow far into the "experiment" did they realize that the fs driver was not designed to work with an fsck writing to the fs and fsck was not designed to work with a live filesystem?Jan 03 17:58
oiaohmIssues become because you cannot write.Jan 03 17:58
MinceRhave fun "booting" your system with a readonly filesystemJan 03 17:58
oiaohmlivecds boot with read only file systems quite a long way.Jan 03 17:58
MinceRyes, and they took quite a bit of work to enable working like thatJan 03 17:59
oiaohmAlso here is  stupid mistake by you.Jan 03 17:59
MinceRusually including unioning with a filesystem in ram, which is writableJan 03 17:59
MinceRwhich you'll find most non-live systems don't doJan 03 17:59
oiaohmfsck in particular modes is in fact designed to work in read only mode.Jan 03 17:59
MinceRfixing fs errors in read only mode will work just fine, i presumeJan 03 17:59
MinceRbecause magicJan 03 18:00
oiaohmDefault fsck on sysvinit systems normally did not fix errors.Jan 03 18:00
oiaohmInstead forced you to boot to single then fix.Jan 03 18:00
MinceRnot to mention that the corrupted data which was read by the driver before fsck tried to fix it will still be in useJan 03 18:00
MinceRif only they didn't break singleJan 03 18:00
oiaohmIssue here is not writing.  Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmexactly.Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmThe bigger issues is reading before validated.Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmMinceR: interesting enough file systems marked under systemd in fstab to be loaded by the initrd will be fully validated before system starts.Jan 03 18:03
MinceRafaik they also changed the contents of the initramfs for the sake of systemdJan 03 18:03
oiaohmNot exactly.Jan 03 18:04
oiaohmerrors use to happen under sysvinit as well due to odd issues like writing to /var a log message about a fdisk error before /var was mounted.Jan 03 18:05
MinceRhow many decades ago did that happen?Jan 03 18:05
oiaohmMoving some more mountings in initramfs improved sysvinit stablity.Jan 03 18:05
oiaohmdifferent fdisk programs have different stupidity under Linux MinceRJan 03 18:06
oiaohmFirst case I know of with /var directory having crap written in it by fdisk in boot process was 1995Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmSo this was one of those outstanding unfixed sysvinit bugs under Linux.Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmThat happened to get fixed when systemd developers changed a few things.Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmYes some place systemd developers were sane that by end of initramfs that all core file systems should be mounted is right.Jan 03 18:08
MinceRso, 15 years before they started hacking systemd togetherJan 03 18:09
oiaohmThe fault is older than when I first saw it.Jan 03 18:10
oiaohmCould go right back to the birth of Linux.Jan 03 18:10

schestowitz> There used to be a lot written about "honor" killings and they wereJan 03 21:25
schestowitz> trending upward over some years, but coverage disappeared suddenly.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzThere is a similar problem in Israel, where extremism comes from two directions.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzFirst, "honor" killings do exist (in the Israeli Arab community) and they do get discussed in public. I haven't heard of similar things in the UK for over a decade now, but I suppose it does still happen (I don't read newspapers much).Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzOn the other side, which is less fatal (unless you include so-called 'settlers'), you have orthodox neighbourhood where young children, indoctrinated by their parents, would even fling stones at dogs or act crudely with non-religious folks. That's a form of Jewish extremism.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzI cannot quite think of any Christian equivalents. Suffice to say, the above is considered a form of extremism, though I think "honour" killings (or retaliation for apostasy) won't even qualify as very extreme in some quarters, only "necessary".Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzI'm not sure to what degree the situation in Sweden can be considered a fringe phenomenon or a vocal minority. Sometimes it's enough for a very small violent minority (<0.001%) to scare the rest of their ethical group, possible threatening death to critics among their communities.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzTwitter, BTW, is increasing censorship right now. On the surface this extend to banning speech against religion, so here they are joining the likes of Facebook, and not just in countries such as India (where atheistic views can be deleted).Jan 03 21:25

schestowitzOne of the major reasons during the endless war cited by DPL to bring peace was Jessie freeze is done, there is nothing which could be done for jessie. #stretch should support alternate init daemon or maybe thanks to devuan splitting up it allw ent no where.Jan 03 16:29
schestowitz"Jan 03 16:29
MinceReven if they allowed it in stretch, there would be no knowing what they would fuck upJan 03 16:33
MinceRit's not reasonable to rely on an allegedly stable distro that randomly fucks up with things like systemdJan 03 16:34
oiaohmMinceR: chicken vs egg class problem.   systemd shim is still in testing with the option to put back sysvinit with debian.Jan 03 16:51
MinceRno, it's the problem of having no understanding what a "stable release" meansJan 03 16:51
oiaohmStable release is not strictly defined.Jan 03 16:52
MinceRtherefore it should be meaningless?Jan 03 16:52
MinceRwe already had such distrosJan 03 16:52
MinceRlike archJan 03 16:52
oiaohmDebian even in the stable release the option to switch back to sysvinit.Jan 03 16:53
MinceRyeah, either removing a ton of packages you'd be using, or not actually removing systemdJan 03 16:53
oiaohmDebian did not just jump to systemd and not provide an option of going back.Jan 03 16:53
MinceRand even if you have it remove a lot of packages, you'll still have libsystemd aroundJan 03 16:53
oiaohmsystemd-shim was being used before systemd was default.Jan 03 16:54
MinceRyeah, they provided hobson's choiceJan 03 16:54
oiaohmReally distrobutions have done that for years.Jan 03 16:55
oiaohmSo exactly what is new about that.Jan 03 16:55
oiaohmMinceR: don't you remember when debian added parrall booting to sysvinit Jan 03 16:56
oiaohmThat was before systemd by a long way.Jan 03 16:56
MinceRso we've arrived at the "systemd is not a big deal" stageJan 03 16:56
oiaohmMinceR parallel  booting sysvinit  http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/initscripts-ng-devel/2005-September/000212.html  2005Jan 03 16:58
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-lists.alioth.debian.org | Please test parallel booting in new sysvinit version [ http://ur1.ca/odky8 ]Jan 03 16:58
MinceRdid parallel booting come with its own version of udev, [x]inetd, crond, atd, syslogd, firewall, bootloader, dns cache, webserver, container provisioner and ntpd built into it?Jan 03 16:58
MinceRdid parallel booting come with a set of unstable undocumented APIs desktop environments depended on?Jan 03 16:59
oiaohmNo it did not but it could effectively snap everyone of those by loading them in the wrong order.Jan 03 16:59
MinceRif you can't understand that these things don't belong in an init/rc system, i don't think we have anything to discussJan 03 16:59
oiaohmThat is just your point of view.Jan 03 17:00
oiaohmLot of system parts are independant binaries.Jan 03 17:01
oiaohmsystemd meant there.Jan 03 17:01
oiaohmSo not in fact built into the init section of the code.Jan 03 17:01
MinceRwith poettering's definition of "independent"Jan 03 17:01
MinceRi guess without understanding the fundamentals of software engineering, it's impossible to understand why the entire concept of systemd is brokenJan 03 17:01
oiaohmThen the concept that busybox is based on is broken.Jan 03 17:02
oiaohmSoftware engineering does not forbid a solution having all those parts provided as part of 1 project.Jan 03 17:03
oiaohmSoftware engineering does get upset with the lack of clear separation of parts inside project.Jan 03 17:03
oiaohmMinceR: if you had done software engineering you would know picking out that it has lots of different features provided is not a fault.Jan 03 17:04
oiaohmAlso the desktop like gnome did not use undocumented functions.    They used documented and not defined stable yet.Jan 03 17:06
MinceRif you had any valid arguments for systemd, you wouldn't need to twist my words to make it seem like you had any.Jan 03 17:06
oiaohmMinceR: one of the things about systemd api/abi is that is is very well documents.Jan 03 17:06
oiaohmdocumented.Jan 03 17:06
MinceRthen i must have dreamed the warning about unstable APIsJan 03 17:07
MinceRand that the implementer of LoginKit found that gdm uses those unstable APIsJan 03 17:07
oiaohmSomething can be documented and unstable.Jan 03 17:07
MinceReven though they're not supposed to be usedJan 03 17:07
MinceRalso, looks like you haven't seen the source code of systemdJan 03 17:07
oiaohmSystemd is documented and unstable in api/abis.Jan 03 17:07
oiaohmI have been though the source code and the documententation.Jan 03 17:07
oiaohmThey do line up.Jan 03 17:08
oiaohmAlso MinceR tell me where is systemd automatic build server to set every patch submitted.   That right it does not have one.Jan 03 17:08
oiaohmto set/ to testJan 03 17:09
MinceR"we do not test for this"Jan 03 17:09
oiaohmThat is a breach of software engineering.Jan 03 17:09
oiaohmFor something as critical as a init system you would think setting up automatic build systems with fault checking would be the first thing todo.Jan 03 17:10
MinceRor you could actually keep it as simple as possibleJan 03 17:11
oiaohmSorry noJan 03 17:11
oiaohmEven as simple as possible a person can human error doing a patch MinceRJan 03 17:11
MinceRyeah, it's impossibleJan 03 17:11
MinceRas shown by several examples people have doneJan 03 17:11
MinceRmaybe it's impossible for poettering to keep the design and the code simpleJan 03 17:12
oiaohmEvery init system with a automatic build server  has out done those without.Jan 03 17:12
MinceRsince he worships complexityJan 03 17:12
MinceRjust like the drones at m$Jan 03 17:12
oiaohmDebian internally build and modified sysvinit had been running a quality control build server.Jan 03 17:13
oiaohmSo like it or not a automatic build and QA like cppcheck run over server applies just as much to sysvinit as systemd or any other init system you could name.Jan 03 17:14
oiaohmNumber of faults cppcheck finds in systemd is insane.Jan 03 17:15
MinceRunsurprisingJan 03 17:15

oiaohmMinceR: code contains no clear explain why _exit was used over using normal exit.    "atexit(3)" "on_exit(3)" can in fact be used inside the libcJan 03 17:22

MinceRiirc the only reason sysvinit needs these signals is so it won't try to respawn processes while you're trying to shut downJan 03 17:31
MinceRother than that, you can in fact kill all processes other than pid1 and yourself, remount filesystems readonly and shutdown or rebootJan 03 17:32
oiaohmJust because there are other ways does not mean you cannot magically do what was written into the standard.Jan 03 17:35
MinceRyou might also want to talk about how merged /usr doesn't violate the FHS, while you're at itJan 03 17:35
oiaohmEven smf bare min init can perform those 3 signals.Jan 03 17:35
MinceRnobody caresJan 03 17:35
MinceRalso, iirc back when SMF used a separate init, that did in fact respawn SMF properJan 03 17:35
oiaohmThe zombie one is important.Jan 03 17:36
MinceRso of course it had to have a role in shutting downJan 03 17:36
MinceRthe oneliner reaps zombiesJan 03 17:36
MinceRironically enough, systemd doesn'tJan 03 17:36
oiaohmWhat version systemd.Jan 03 17:36
oiaohmThe correct statement is for a while systemd did not reap zombies.Jan 03 17:37
MinceRhttps://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=41625Jan 03 17:37
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-bugs.freedesktop.org | Bug 41625 – systemd apparently doesn't reap zombiesJan 03 17:37
MinceRby then it was already deemed "stable" enough to force on fedora usersJan 03 17:38
oiaohmMinceR: really quoting bugs to sound good.Jan 03 17:39
schestowitzhttps://twitter.com/tecknocrat/status/683699612465541120Jan 03 17:39
-TechrightsBN/#boycottnovell-@tecknocrat: @schestowitz But was it really $400k. Probably $400k less commission !?¿!¡ .......🙄Jan 03 17:39
oiaohmMinceR: please that bug was closed by author because it turned out not to be a systemd fault at all.Jan 03 17:40
MinceRaccording to the authorJan 03 17:40
MinceRwho's an incompetent nutcaseJan 03 17:40
MinceRclosing bugs without fixing them is business as usual at systemdJan 03 17:41
oiaohmBut not this case.Jan 03 17:41
oiaohmBecause systemd behavour with zombie processes is the same as sysvinit and yes particular cases sysvinit leaks zombies as well.Jan 03 17:42
oiaohmsinit systemd and sysvinit behavour with a zombie would be fairly much identical.Jan 03 17:42
MinceRat least sysvinit doesn't take 35MB of code to do thatJan 03 17:42
MinceRand isn't forced on anyoneJan 03 17:42
MinceRcitation neededJan 03 17:43
oiaohmReally SIGCHLD is the key to zombie reaping when zombie process is reparented to pid1Jan 03 17:44
oiaohmThat is why  int main(void) { if (fork()) while (1) wait(NULL); else execl("/etc/rc", "rc", NULL); } does not work properly.Jan 03 17:44

schestowitzNot SandersJan 03 17:45
oiaohmMinceR: sorry there are a lot of case of people picking out what sounded like critical bugs in systemd that turn out to be in fact nothing different to sysvinit behavour.Jan 03 17:45
MinceRsorry, that doesn't justify this huge, hostile blob partly in pid1, blocking other system componentsJan 03 17:46
oiaohmReally picking on systemd size does not mean you have to use bogus points MinceRJan 03 17:47
MinceRreally, systemd has more issues than you'd like to admitJan 03 17:47
MinceRand the funny thing is, it doesn't even make booting faster in all casesJan 03 17:47
oiaohmSorry I do admit to issues in systemd quite critical ones like poor QA process.Jan 03 17:47
oiaohmI will say too much in pid 1Jan 03 17:48
oiaohmLike processing unit files that should not be in pid1Jan 03 17:48
MinceR> systemd took ~5 minutes to boot on one of our SOCs running fedoraJan 03 17:48
MinceR> ubuntu took ~30 secondsJan 03 17:48
MinceR> it was using upstart iircJan 03 17:48
MinceRsomeone else had an issue of boot taking over 40 minutes with systemdJan 03 17:48
oiaohmYep mono threading vs multi threading.Jan 03 17:49
MinceRkind of problematic when one of the main talking points was that systemd makes booting so fastJan 03 17:49
oiaohmNow do you know what section of systemd is mono threaded that cripples the bugger.Jan 03 17:49
MinceReven aside the fact that making booting faster while also sometimes making it fail entirely is not a good tradeoffJan 03 17:49
oiaohmCome on MinceRJan 03 17:49
MinceRi'm not sure if anyone knowsJan 03 17:49
oiaohmanswer do you know the section or not.Jan 03 17:50
MinceRit's a mess like m$ products, i doubt anyone understands the whole thing anymoreJan 03 17:50
oiaohmThe answer is stupidly simple.Jan 03 17:50
oiaohmupstart multi threaded processes it configuration files systemd does not.Jan 03 17:50
oiaohmSingle threaded sysvinit is slower than systemd in almost all cases.Jan 03 17:52
oiaohmMinceR: Do you know the one case where systemd is slower than sysvinit single threaded Jan 03 17:52
MinceR> 20 minutes after reboot it starts replying to pingsJan 03 17:54
MinceR> sounds like standard systemd startup time to meJan 03 17:54
MinceRtotally worth it!Jan 03 17:54
oiaohmMinceR: simple enough edit a unit file in systemd attempt to use it triggers current system to re read every unit file.Jan 03 17:54
oiaohmMinceR: of course editing a sysvinit init file is never that nasty.Jan 03 17:54
MinceRi also wonder how long booting takes if systemd gives up on waiting for fsck resumes booting while fsck is still runningJan 03 17:54
MinceRand what the result isJan 03 17:55
oiaohmIn fact that is not a performance hit.Jan 03 17:55
oiaohmparallel boot sysvinit in debian back in 2006 it was expermented with booting with fsck still running in background. Jan 03 17:56
MinceRi think you'll find the fs becoming corrupted due to fsck and the fs driver writing to it at the same time will cause data loss and some things to stop workingJan 03 17:57
oiaohmNot at all.Jan 03 17:57
MinceRwhich may well result in the boot process never finishingJan 03 17:57
oiaohmsystemd leaves filesystems still being fsck in read only.Jan 03 17:57
MinceRhow far into the "experiment" did they realize that the fs driver was not designed to work with an fsck writing to the fs and fsck was not designed to work with a live filesystem?Jan 03 17:58
oiaohmIssues become because you cannot write.Jan 03 17:58
MinceRhave fun "booting" your system with a readonly filesystemJan 03 17:58
oiaohmlivecds boot with read only file systems quite a long way.Jan 03 17:58
MinceRyes, and they took quite a bit of work to enable working like thatJan 03 17:59
oiaohmAlso here is  stupid mistake by you.Jan 03 17:59
MinceRusually including unioning with a filesystem in ram, which is writableJan 03 17:59
MinceRwhich you'll find most non-live systems don't doJan 03 17:59
oiaohmfsck in particular modes is in fact designed to work in read only mode.Jan 03 17:59
MinceRfixing fs errors in read only mode will work just fine, i presumeJan 03 17:59
MinceRbecause magicJan 03 17:59
oiaohmDefault fsck on sysvinit systems normally did not fix errors.Jan 03 18:00
oiaohmInstead forced you to boot to single then fix.Jan 03 18:00
MinceRnot to mention that the corrupted data which was read by the driver before fsck tried to fix it will still be in useJan 03 18:00
MinceRif only they didn't break singleJan 03 18:00
oiaohmIssue here is not writing.  Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmexactly.Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmThe bigger issues is reading before validated.Jan 03 18:01
oiaohmMinceR: interesting enough file systems marked under systemd in fstab to be loaded by the initrd will be fully validated before system starts.Jan 03 18:03
MinceRafaik they also changed the contents of the initramfs for the sake of systemdJan 03 18:03
oiaohmNot exactly.Jan 03 18:04
oiaohmerrors use to happen under sysvinit as well due to odd issues like writing to /var a log message about a fdisk error before /var was mounted.Jan 03 18:05
MinceRhow many decades ago did that happen?Jan 03 18:05
oiaohmMoving some more mountings in initramfs improved sysvinit stablity.Jan 03 18:05
oiaohmdifferent fdisk programs have different stupidity under Linux MinceRJan 03 18:06
oiaohmFirst case I know of with /var directory having crap written in it by fdisk in boot process was 1995Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmSo this was one of those outstanding unfixed sysvinit bugs under Linux.Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmThat happened to get fixed when systemd developers changed a few things.Jan 03 18:07
oiaohmYes some place systemd developers were sane that by end of initramfs that all core file systems should be mounted is right.Jan 03 18:08
MinceRso, 15 years before they started hacking systemd togetherJan 03 18:09
oiaohmThe fault is older than when I first saw it.Jan 03 18:10
oiaohmCould go right back to the birth of Linux.Jan 03 18:10
oiaohmEven possilbiy before.Jan 03 18:10

schestowitz> trending upward over some years, but coverage disappeared suddenly.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzThere is a similar problem in Israel, where extremism comes from two directions.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzFirst, "honor" killings do exist (in the Israeli Arab community) and they do get discussed in public. I haven't heard of similar things in the UK for over a decade now, but I suppose it does still happen (I don't read newspapers much).Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzOn the other side, which is less fatal (unless you include so-called 'settlers'), you have orthodox neighbourhood where young children, indoctrinated by their parents, would even fling stones at dogs or act crudely with non-religious folks. That's a form of Jewish extremism.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzI cannot quite think of any Christian equivalents. Suffice to say, the above is considered a form of extremism, though I think "honour" killings (or retaliation for apostasy) won't even qualify as very extreme in some quarters, only "necessary".Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzI'm not sure to what degree the situation in Sweden can be considered a fringe phenomenon or a vocal minority. Sometimes it's enough for a very small violent minority (<0.001%) to scare the rest of their ethical group, possible threatening death to critics among their communities.Jan 03 21:25
schestowitzTwitter, BTW, is increasing censorship right now. On the surface this extend to banning speech against religion, so here they are joining the likes of Facebook, and not just in countries such as India (where atheistic views can be deleted).Jan 03 21:25

This offer means that ex members can re-join for an admin fee of only £1 and pay no membership fee until Feb 1st if they re-join before the 17th January. This is the best offer I could give you alongside the lower membership rate. Please let me know if you would like anymore information.Jan 04 16:26
