PATCH 1/1 Add config to nfsd to set number of threads

Andreas, All,

On 2015-12-17 20:45 +0100, Andreas Ehmanns spake thusly:

Quoted 1 line

I forgot in my previous reply, but subject should have been:

package/nfsd: accept config to set number of threads

This can be fixed by a maintainer when he applies, so no need to resubmit...

Otherwise:

Unrelated yto this change, I noticed that this script is completely consistent with how it stops services:
- sometimes, we killall, sometimes we kill-9
- the order in which we kill, echo and rm pid file is not consistent

It would be nice if we stopped all the NFS services in a consistent way, like always use killall, then remove the pid file, and eventually echo the status. Would you like to send a follow-up patch that does that cleanup, please? ;-)

Regards,
Yann E. MORIN.

I can prepare a patch for that but I have no possibility to test the changes since today was my last day in office for this year and I don't have a target system here at home.

PATCH 1/1 Add config to nfsd to set number of threads

In reply to Yann E. MORIN

Dear Yann,
please find below the rework of the nfsd init script. The changes are very small. Please note that a change from

kill -9 pidof nfsd 2>/dev/null

to killall was not possible since killall did not kill the nfsd threads. It simply did not work and I couldn't figure out the root cause.

Let me know what you think about. If it's o.k. for you, I re-send the patch using git.

Regards,
Andreas

PATCH 1/1 Add config to nfsd to set number of threads

Andreas, All,

Quoted 8 lines

Dear Yann,

kill -9 pidof nfsd 2>/dev/null

to killall was not possible since killall did not kill the nfsd threads. It simply did not work and I couldn't figure out the root cause.

What about using something like;
rpc.nfsd 0
killall -9 nfsd

From 'man rpc.nfsd':
In particular rpc.nfsd 0 will stop all threads and thus close any open connections.

(maybe with a little sleep in-between the two calls to let things settle down?)

Care to have a look, please?

Let me know what you think about. If it's o.k. for you, I re-send the patch using git.

Well, it's already a nice improvement. ;-)

Please, consider the above suggestion. Adapt the script if required, and respin with git, please.

Thanks! :-)

Yes, please send using git. Patches sent as attachments have an even bigger
chance of being ignored than other patches.

However, I can already say that it should be two separate patches: one changing
"done" to OK/FAIL, and a second one doing the functional changes.

We are unfortunately swamped with patches that need review, and we don't have
enough people doing reviews. And we're not willing to forego on quality by accepting patches without review.

We will get to your patches eventually, because they are tracked in patchwork.
Note that the oldest pending patch is 9 months old, to give you an idea of what you can expect.

What you can do to speed things up:

- Help out with reviewing and testing. Look at some (non-trivial) patches that are relevant to you (e.g. affecting a package that you use), download and test it, then give it your Tested-by tag. You can also go over the changes, look for any mistakes that you can identify, and give feedback or give it your Reviewed-by tag. Obviously, your reviews will not immediately carry the same weight as those of long-time buildroot developers, but they are really helpful.

- Reply to your patches with 'ping', so they appear on the top of the stack again. Note that this doesn't help that much because we're still swamped. But it does at least tell us that you will be paying attention if we have any feedback to give.

Arnout

Is there something from my side what is missing?

Additionally I sent a set of patches for the netsnmp init script one day before which are also not incorporated?
Can you please have a look?

Yann,
indeed a killall -9 worked. So I reworked the patch. According to Thomas' recommendation I added the OK/FAIL output as done in the dropbox init script. Please have a look at the attached patch. If it's o.k., I'll resend it using git.

Yann,
is the patch o.k. for you? Shall I resend it using git?

Yes, please send using git. Patches sent as attachments have an
even bigger
chance of being ignored than other patches.

Quoted 6 lines

However, I can already say that it should be two separate patches:
one changing
"done" to OK/FAIL, and a second one doing the functional changes.

Yann, Arnout,
can someone of you please check what happened with this patch? It's more than
one month and a half ago that I sent it and it seems that it is still not
incorporated?

We are unfortunately swamped with patches that need review, and we
don't have enough people doing reviews. And we're not willing to forego on quality by accepting patches without review.

We will get to your patches eventually, because they are tracked in
patchwork. Note that the oldest pending patch is 9 months old, to give you an idea of what you can expect.

Arnout,
I wasn't aware of that. So it seems that I was a little bit too impatient.

Thanks for the clarification and I will have a look if I can follow your recommendation and review some patches.

Arnout,

I think your impatience is very reasonable. This point is discussed at about
every buildroot developer meeting. Asking people to do more reviews is about the only thing we have come up with. If you have other ideas, feel free to launch them.

Well, actually, we do have one other solution: the Buildroot Summer Camp,
where a bunch of core developers come together for 4-5 days for a long hacking session. Last year we managed to get about 300 patches applied, and developed some important new features like the kernel-module infra, better support for systemd, ...
