Description Zhouping Liu 2012-04-27 12:58:51 UTC
Description of problem:
Depend on numad source code, I know -i options:
...
numad_log(LOG_NOTICE, "Changing interval to %d:%d\n", msg.body.arg1, msg.body.arg2);
min_interval = msg.body.arg1;
max_interval = msg.body.arg2;
...
which said msg.body.arg1 is max_interval, msg.body.arg2 is min_interval

but if I set msg.body.arg1 > msg.body.arg2, it still set msg.body.arg1 to min_interval, which caused min_interval > max_interval.

and I have tested it in my box, when I did '# numad -i 10:1',
the log file</var/log/numad.log> show:
Wed Apr 25 15:16:43 2012: Changing interval to 10:1
then the log updated each 1 second, but we expect not 1 second.
and the log should be:
Wed Apr 25 15:16:43 2012: Changing interval to 1:10
                                               ^^^^
maybe the attached patch can fix it.

fixed '-i' option

Comment 2 Bill Gray 2012-05-02 17:30:58 UTC
I will fix this by enforcing (max >= min), and also fixing man page: it should show min as optional, e.g. -i [min:]max

Thanks for entering the bug report!

Thanks for entering this bug report.  This is expected to be fixed in a version pushed upstream (and into Fedora 17?) today (20120523).

Comment 5 Jan Synacek 2012-05-24 04:59:18 UTC
New version in F17 should be available in about a week.

Comment 6 Fedora End Of Life 2013-07-04 07:41:51 UTC
This message is a reminder that Fedora 17 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 4 (four) weeks from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 17. It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained. At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '17'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Bug Reporter:  Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 17 is end of life. If you 
would still like  to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version  of Fedora, you are encouraged  change the 
'version' to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 17's end of life.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events. Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

Comment 7 Bill Gray 2013-07-23 16:31:20 UTC
Closing: this issue has been fixed and shipped...
