------- Comment From sharyathi.com 2008-01-29 22:16 EDT------- Distro Any update on this bug. Thanks ------- Comment From ssant.com 2008-02-05 06:02 EDT------- Sharyathi could you please check if a patch from this link fixes this issue ? http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/kexec/2008-January/001264.html ------- Comment From sharyathi.com 2008-02-14 03:09 EDT------- Red Hat Just to give a heads up, the problem is not getting noticed if you build from source rpm. The problem is specific to rpm shipped with the distro. So can you update if this is going to be fixed ? Let us know how to take it from here. Thanks Sharyathi ------- Comment From mohd.omar.com 2008-02-14 08:45 EDT------- This issue persists in F9Alpha. F9Alpha has kernels: 2.6.24-2.fc9 kexec-tools: kexec-tools-1.102pre-3.fc9 --Regards Omar vivek, do you want me to take this over? I have a vague recollection of fixing a buffer overflow in ppc64 in a later version. Can you try this again with -10.el5? ------- Comment From mohd.omar.com 2008-02-15 01:40 EDT-------
>-10.el5? Is this a version for a kexec-tool?
If not, Where do I get -10.el5 kernel,kdump-kernel etc...?
you can get it on my people page: http://people.redhat.com/nhorman I think I just saw this posted upstream, but test with the version on my page, just to be sure. Thanks! I just saw this go into the upstream tree: http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/horms/kexec-tools-testing.git;a=commit;h=ab2df5cd479da9935e23cd7042d69a39f5cec3b0 I'm guessing thats what we need. I'll put together a test package for you and put it on my people page shortly for you to test. Thanks Ok, kexec-tools pacakge with the upstream patch from comment #9 is available on: http://people.redhat.com/nhorman Thanks! ------- Comment From mohd.omar.com 2008-02-21 01:12 EDT------- Salina/Neil, I picked up the kexec-tools test rpm from people page , http://people.redhat.com/nhorman/rpms/kexec-tools-1.102pre-10.bz428684.el5.ppc64.rpm It worked properly, didn't throw any buffer overflow messages. service kdump restart Stopping kdump: [ OK ] Starting kdump: [ OK ] --Regards Omar kexec-tools-1.102pre-4.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8 ------- Comment From sharyathi.com 2008-02-25 01:45 EDT------- Red Hat Closing from our side Thanks Sharyathi kexec-tools-1.102pre-4.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 stable repository.
