Note: This bug is displayed in read-only format because
the product is no longer active in Red Hat Bugzilla.
RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.
I think a slightly more detailed error message would be good. Mention the affected thread by name and/or PID, since the command may have tried to move more than one thread.
And, "thread cannot be moved as requested" is clearer than "cannot move thread" for this condition.
--Guy
I mostly agree, although, "thread cannot be moved as requested", is not clearer because it sounds like it could be moved if you requested it differently. Wordier is not always clearer, it leaves room for more arguments. Anyway, I think this discussion belongs on the tuna mailing list and not on the bugzilla.
You can get EINVAL when a thread is movable, but not as requested. You can also get EINVAL when the thread is unmovable.
I think "do not move" or "failed to move" is better.
Good point.
Going back to your original suggestion, how about the following?
# tuna --cpus=1 --threads="migration/*" --move
thread 11 cannot be moved as requested
thread 28 cannot be moved as requested
thread 21 cannot be moved as requested
--------------------------
Note that it is simple to get the pid, but the thread name is a bit trickier, so I suggest we leave that as a feature for the future.
