Description Thomas Backlund 2011-09-17 11:47:37 CEST
There is now a 	mkinitrd-6.0.93-23.1.mga1 to test in core/updates_testing.

Advisory:
---
This update fixes nash-hotplug to use /proc/<pid>/oom_score_adj

and thereby the warning in dmesg:

kernel: nash-hotplug (<pid>): /proc/<pid>/oom_adj is deprecated, please use
/proc/<pid>/oom_score_adj instead.
---


The reason for pushing this update even if it's only is a warning, is that newer kernels will change the warning to a full stack trace printout (to try and force all distros to finally fix it), so fixing this will avoid bugreports.

The same fix has been in Cauldron since 2011-08-02

Comment 1 Dave Hodgins 2011-09-19 03:52:02 CEST
Testing complete on i586.

I confirmed the message nash-hotplug (34): /proc/34/oom_adj is deprecated
was present in syslog, for every boot, just after write protecting the
kernel text and read-only data.

After running
mkinitrd -f /boot/initrd-2.6.38.8-desktop-5.mga.img 2.6.38.8-desktop-5.mga
With the Updates Testing version of nash and mkinitrd, the error no longer
appears on reboot.

I've done this test with all 5 kernels I have installed.

The srpm involved is
mkinitrd-6.0.93-23.1.mga1.src.rpm

Ping x86 testers.  Note that this update is blocking the kernel update.
Comment 3 José Jorge 2011-09-20 13:26:33 CEST
