https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/24028 https://pagure.io/releng/fedora-scm-requests/issue/24029 FEDORA-EPEL-2020-cc026660ab has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 8. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2020-cc026660ab FEDORA-EPEL-2020-cc026660ab has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 testing repository. You can provide feedback for this update here: https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2020-cc026660ab See also https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:Updates_Testing for more information on how to test updates. There is an issue with perl-Sys-Statistics-Linux for kernels >=4.18, which I did not see during initial tests. It fails to parse /proc/diskstats correctly due to new fields. This is the upstream bugreport: https://rt.cpan.org/Public/Bug/Display.html?id=128904 This affects CentOS 8 and most likely Fedora as well. A rebuild of the RPM from epel-testing with the patch works and the correct values are reported. I have attached the patch to this bug entry as well. Could the patch be included in the version for EPEL-8? Created attachment 1677137 [details]
Patch for kernels >=4.18
(In reply to Stefan Dietrich from comment #4) > > Could the patch be included in the version for EPEL-8? I'll do this today or tomorrow. Testing this on my F31 machine, I noticed the problem is a little more complex than that. The lines in /proc/diskstats have 15 fields on RHEL/CentOS 8 but 17 on F31+ so the patch needs to be adapted for both. I've built a new package for rawhide and updates for stable systems will be done tomorrow. Thank you for reporting this, Stefan. I now have the perfect bug to show people who claim EPEL has no benefit to Fedora. FEDORA-EPEL-2020-409a866a09 has been submitted as an update to Fedora EPEL 8. https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2020-409a866a09 FEDORA-EPEL-2020-409a866a09 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 testing repository.

FEDORA-EPEL-2020-409a866a09 has been pushed to the Fedora EPEL 8 stable repository. If problem still persists, please make note of it in this bug report. |
