febootstrap: no ext2 root device found
by Steve Keller Savvco
Hello-
I've recently upgraded from OEL 6.4 to OEL 6.8. Infiniband Hardware
installed on the server prevents me from upgrading the OS version any
higher.
Kernel Version:
Oracle Linux Server Red Hat Compatible Kernel (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64)
Since the upgrade, there have been problems with libguestfs-tools hanging,
then timing out.
I'd like to use the newest version of libguestfs-tools if possible, but all
versions above "1.16.34-2.el6" that have been tested time out with the same
error.
Running "libguestfs-test-tool" with Kernel (2.6.32-642.el6.x86_64); the
results are as follows:
libguestfs-tools.x86_64 1:1.16.34-2.el6 public_ol6_u4_base
(works)
libguestfs-tools.x86_64 1:1.20.11-2.el6 public_ol6_u5_base
(times out with error "febootstrap: no ext2 root device found")
libguestfs-tools.x86_64 1:1.20.11-17.el6 public_ol6_u8_base
(times out with error "febootstrap: no ext2 root device found")
libguestfs-tools.x86_64 1:1.20.11-20.el6 public_ol6_latest
(times out with error "febootstrap: no ext2 root device found")
I can provide the output of the tests if required.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!
Thanks.

[PATCH nbdkit] Fix --dump-plugin on perl, python and ruby plugins.
by Richard W.M. Jones
Previously doing:
nbdkit python --dump-plugin
would segfault since the script was not loaded. It was possible to
work around this using:
nbdkit python test.py --dump-plugin
assuming that you had a Python script to use.
Change the code so that the original command (without the script name)
doesn't segfault.

[nbdkit PATCH] tests: Make parallel tests work at 512-byte granularity
by Eric Blake
qemu-io 2.12 will be changing its default alignment to unknown
servers so that it does read-modify-write for anything less than
512 bytes. If we implement NBD_OPT_GO, then we can keep qemu-io
using 1-byte alignment; but until then, this breaks our parallel
tests when using 1-byte alignment because they end up with more
delays than expected (thanks to the read-modify-write). Revamp
the tests to not rely on sub-sector alignment, which works with
both qemu-io 2.11 and 2.12, and fixes a TODO item.

[PATCH v3 0/6] v2v: Add -o rhv-upload output mode.
by Richard W.M. Jones
v2 -> v3:
- Lots of code cleanups.
- Documentation.
However this is still spooling the file into a temporary before the
upload. It turns out that fixing this is going to require a small
change to qemu.
