|
=================
|
|
|
|
proxmox-ve
|
|
----------
|
|
|
|
top level meta package, depends on current default kernel series meta package.
|

git clone git://git.proxmox.com/git/proxmox-ve.git
|
|
|
|
pve-kernel-meta
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|

|
|
e.g., pve-kernel-4.15 / pve-headers-4.15
|
|
|
|
git clone git://git.proxmox.com/git/pve-kernel-meta.git
|
|
|

NOTES:
|
|
======
|
|
|
|
Watchdog blacklist
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
By default, all watchdog modules are black-listed because it is totally undefined
|
|
which device is actually used for /dev/watchdog.
|
|
We ship this list in /lib/modprobe.d/blacklist_pve-kernel-<VERSION>.conf
|
|
The user typically edit /etc/modules to enable a specific watchdog device.
|
|
|
|
Additional information
|
|
----------------------
|
|
|
|
We use the default configuration provided by Ubuntu, and apply
|
|
the following modifications:
|
|
|
|
see debian/rules (PVE_CONFIG_OPTS)
|
|
|
|
- enable INTEL_MEI_WDT=m (to allow disabling via patch)
|
|
|
|
- disable CONFIG_SND_PCM_OSS (enabled by default in Ubuntu, not needed)
|
|
|
|
- switch CONFIG_TRANSPARENT_HUGEPAGE to MADVISE from ALWAYS
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_CEPH_FS=m (request from user)
|
|
|
|
- enable common CONFIG_BLK_DEV_XXX to avoid hardware detection
|
|
problems (udev, undate-initramfs have serious problems without that)
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SR=y
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_DM=y
|
|
|
|
- add workaround for Debian bug #807000 (see
|
|
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=807000)
|
|
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NVME=y
|
|
|
|
- compile NBD and RBD modules
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NBD=m
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RBD=m
|
|
|
|
- set LOOP_MIN_COUNT to 8 (debian defaults)
|
|
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_LOOP_MIN_COUNT=8
|
|
|
|
- disable module signatures (CONFIG_MODULE_SIG)
|
|
|
|
- enable IBM JFS file system
|
|
|
|
This is disabled in RHEL kernel for no real reason, so we enable
|
|
it as requested by users (bug #64)
|
|
|
|
- enable apple HFS and HFSPLUS
|
|
|
|
This is disabled in RHEL kernel for no real reason, so we enable
|
|
it as requested by users
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_BCACHE=m (requested by user)
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_BRIDGE=y
|
|
|
|
Else we get warnings on boot, that
|
|
net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables is an unknown key
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_DEFAULT_SECURITY_APPARMOR
|
|
|
|
We need this for lxc
|
|
|
|
- set CONFIG_CPU_FREQ_DEFAULT_GOV_PERFORMANCE=y
|
|
|
|
because if not set, it can give some dynamic memory or cpu frequencies
|
|
change, and vms can crash (mainly windows guest).
|
|
|
|
see http://forum.proxmox.com/threads/18238-Windows-7-x64-VMs-crashing-randomly-during-process-termination?p=93273#post93273
|
|
|
|
- use 'deadline' as default scheduler
|
|
|
|
This is the suggested setting for KVM. We also measure bad fsync
|
|
performance with ext4 and cfq.
|
|
|
|
- disable CONFIG_INPUT_EVBUG
|
|
|
|
Module evbug is not blacklisted on debian, so we simply disable it
|
|
to avoid key-event logs (which is a big security problem)
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_MODVERSIONS (needed for ABI tracking)
|
|
|
|
- switch default UNWINDER to FRAME_POINTER
|
|
|
|
the recently introduced ORC_UNWINDER is not 100% stable yet, especially in combination with ZFS
|
|
|
|
- enable CONFIG_PAGE_TABLE_ISOLATION (Meltdown mitigation)
|
