[arch-projects] [netcfg] Reviewing old code: custom control paths
by Jouke Witteveen 05 Jul '12

05 Jul '12

Dear Rémy, I came across commit a1fc1 to netcfg. It refers FS#24949 both in the commit message and the comments. That bug looks completely unrelated. Can you elaborate why it was/is needed to support custom control paths? Dealing with WPA_CTRL_PATH makes for messy code, currently. I guess if we want to go with supporting it, someone should write a wpa_cli wrapper that 1) uses WPA_CTRL_PATH if it is set, or extract it (currently connections/ethernet and connections/wireless duplicate code) 2) else determines WPA_CTRL_PATH from th profile that is active on the interface 3) else uses a default value I'd rather go back to the situation with a fixed control path (but please, convince me of the need of custom paths). Additionally, extraction from the profile is not always right as it could interpret ctrl_interface values that are not directories as directories. Regards, - Jouke

[arch-projects] [initscripts][PATCH] remove /run/nologin before leaving rc.multi
by Dave Reisner 04 Jul '12

04 Jul '12

systemd-186 writes this file when running systemd-tmpfiles, but initscripts never removes it. This disallows all non-root logins. Reported-by: Dan McGee <dan(a)archlinux.org> Signed-off-by: Dave Reisner <dreisner(a)archlinux.org> --- Tom: I've applied this to initscripts and released a new pkg just to avoid any pain that this would otherwise undoubtedly cause. There's a few solutions to this problem but I thought that this would be the most straightforward. Feel free to disagree and we can work out an alternative. rc.multi | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) diff --git a/rc.multi b/rc.multi index daf2372..7d4acaa 100755 --- a/rc.multi +++ b/rc.multi @@ -31,4 +31,6 @@ run_hook multi_end bootlogd_stop +rm -f /run/nologin + # vim: set ts=2 sw=2 noet: -- 1.7.11.1

This prevents interpreting variable search patterns as expressions.

The reverted commit created a situation where wpa_supplicant is unnecessarily started and stopped in many cases, causing noticeable delay. If wpa_supplicant still fails to associate properly, wpa_reconfigure() should be modified in src/8021x. commit 58ea28491738bdc7f351083ee838955f475e4405 Author: Jouke Witteveen <j.witteveen(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue Jul 3 03:37:31 2012 +0200 Better file handling in wifi-menu - Prevent slashes from entering potential profile filenames - Remove scan results file in EXIT trap commit 2a97de914054140b93e5eb163c2da73ec5001ee3 Author: Henrik Hallberg <henrik(a)k2h.se> Date: Tue Jul 3 03:11:12 2012 +0200 Wait actively in {start, stop}_wpa Check .pid file regularly instead of waiting a second blindly.
