Based on above errors, I think that for some reason these two python related packages that were updated yesterday are causing some problems with vdsm. Can you confirm that you can run ok the 3.4 vdsm with those?
vdsm-4.14.6-0.fc19.x86_64
May 10 21:24:23 Updated: python-ethtool-0.9-2.fc19.x86_64 May 10 21:24:23 Updated: python-lxml-3.3.5-1.fc19.x86_64
I can also try to rollback and see...
I was right. Against what to bugzilla? This is a show stopper for fedora 19 ovirt users...
Unfortunately, you are been hit by https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1078312
It is fixed on gerrit, but you'll need VDSM >= 4.14.8.1
Too bad that we did not manage to add a "Conflicts: vdsm <= 4.18.6" to that release of python-ethtool-0.9-2.fc19.x86_64. But now that it is out, there is not much that one can do but to upgrade to a new Vdsm or roll back python-ethtool.
The propblem was due to Vdsm-proper using libnl1 while that version of python-ethtool starting to use linbnl3 and solved by http://gerrit.ovirt.org/26514. Backporting this to the now-unsupported ovirt-3.3 is not really viable, I a m afraid.
Sorry about that! I honestly forgot about this when I had a discussion with Antoni Segura Puimedon last week. And we discovered some other ugly issues too, where we need a dependency on a not yet released libnl3 version to fully fix some libnl connection conflicts with vdsm.
Could you (or Toni) add more information regrading the last sentence? Is there a known issue with ovirt-3.4.1's vdsm?
AFAIU, it's the same old issue, which caused some regression from the tests we've done earlier, due to vdsm using libnl-1.x while python-ethtool uses libnl3. When vdsm in addition uses py-ethtool, the socket py-ethtool module gets closed by itself, which it uses to query the kernel's netlink interface. The result is that py-ethtool gets in a useless state is not able to re-establish a new socket and cannot query the system for any useful information. Thomas Haller (libnl developer) have provided patches to libnl3 which fixes the connection handling - which should help avoiding this issue. I missed the detail that the libnl3 fixes hadn't been pushed out in a release. So when py-ethool got updated, it broke vdsm due to this libnl1/libnl3 issue. With an updated libnl3 + updated py-ethtool, I believe things should be better also for the older vdsm versions. The change in py-ethtool is primarily improving error handling if libnl3 isn't able to establish a netlink socket to the kernel. -- kind regards, David Sommerseth
