Description IBM Bug Proxy 2024-06-04 13:30:27 UTC

Comment 1 IBM Bug Proxy 2024-06-04 13:30:39 UTC

---Problem Description---
 
When testing ODF 4.16 we got ceph operator crashed and opened RedHat bugzilla against ODF: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2279527

After analysis from ODF/CEPH team, it turned out that tcmalloc library in RHEL 9.4 /lib64/libtcmalloc.so.4.5.9 is not compatible with glibc-2.34-100.el9.

The CEPH team suggested to build tcmalloc with the option -ftls-model=initial-exec 

Could you please help to address this issue? The problem blocks the ODF 4.16 release test on the IBM Z platform.

== Comment: #1 - Thomas Staudt <tstaudt.com> - 2024-06-04 08:24:35 ==
tcmalloc is included in gperftools in EPEL 9.

------- Comment From TSTOBER.com 2024-06-05 06:05 EDT-------
this issue is currently blocking any deployments of OpenShift Data Foundation for IBM Z. Therefore it is absolutely business critical for our upcoming next release of ODF.
Thank you for your help here!

Tom, could you please say more about why you've created the patch to add --disable-general-dynamic-tls ?

It's not clear to me why you've set this for s390x. I'd like to understand the original reason before we reverse this.

Comment 5 Tom "spot" Callaway 2024-06-07 18:48:04 UTC
It's been a few years, but I believe it was test failures. Obviously not happening now, possibly due to other fixes on the s390x side.

Summarizing my comments in https://bodhi.fedoraproject.org/updates/FEDORA-EPEL-2024-4e05a33ad0 : I think this rebase to 2.15 is going to be too risky for epel9.

In https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gperftools/commits/epel9 , I reverted back to gperftools-2.9.1-2.el9, then re-applied the %ifarch change.
