Opt-in Linux 6.5 Kernel with ZFS 2.2 for Proxmox VE 8 available on test & no-subscription

Do I need to manually add this or should I stay on 6.5.11-2 and wait for update?
Either can work.
Interface renaming is a once-on-boot thing, so if it's currently working for you, it will stay that way, well at least until the next reboot.
If you add those lines manually you'd hedge against needing to reboot earlier than an update is ready.

That said, I'll re-check this now a bit more closely and can also test it better for this regression, so there probably will be an update soon – but just to manage expectations: this is the test repo, it is the weekend, and I cannot promise any fixed timeline, as always.

I think I've got it.
The kernel is a red herring, the cause is the new systemd default link policy shipped by the pve-manager package bumped yesterday.

E.g., if you adde the following to lines below the [link] section in /usr/lib/systemd/network/98-proxmox-ve-default.link and reboot the kernel should not matter again anymore.

Code:
NamePolicy=keep kernel database onboard slot path
AlternativeNamesPolicy=database onboard slot path

This puts also back some sense in why my kernel testing yesterday didn't observe this already, I only installed the new kernel manually, not pulling in the new default-link yet (that was bumped only later).

We'll look into handling the default better, i.e., go back to the 99-deault-link.d snippet approach where all configs are merged, or take in above properties in ours – will need to recheck the discussion I had with a colleague (who favored the separate file a bit more).

Rebooting into the old kernel seems to make udev re-use the name that was previously assigned to that, thus this was seemingly fix an issue and make it look like the kernel is at fault, while it really wasn't (that's my working theory, will focus on the fix before checkling that more closely).

Managed to apply the fix using Ubuntu Live USB - works perfectly, thanks!!

of course thank you for taking a look at it as soon as you could. I have one other question. During my trouble shooting i ran proxmox-boot-tool reinit to see if it had anything to do with the boot config. This shouldn't cause any problems should it? from what i understood this just rebuilds the boot manager. i also was playing with sgdisk checking partitions and i accidentally ran sgdisk -h thinking it would show the help menu. This is instead linked to --hybrid option. I did not list any devices in command. This shouldn't hurt anything either should it. From what i read if you don't list a partition and device it shouldn't have an effect? If you would just confirm this for me.

also i understand testing is bound to have issues. Im glad i could help identify one for the rest of us users. Proxmox has been a wonderful ride.

I think this question would better fit into its own thread as it's not really related to the new 6.5 opt-in kernel.
But no, proxmox-boot-tool reinit should not be destructive, it just copies over the bootloader (grub or systemd-boot) to the efi system partition, if that is set up and used for early booting.

Yeah, sgdisk is very feature full but not the easiest user experience, I nowadays check the manual page via, e.g., man sgdisk first most of the time to avoid fallout by my and the tools authors understanding of command line interfaces clashing.
Anyhow, yes, if you did not pass any devices, sgdisk won't do anything.
 
I re-visited the chat I had with a co-worker about the location and re-checked the systemd docs, and I think that here we're for now better of in extending the existing 99-default.link policy and add our override for the MACAddressPolicy as drop-in file there, as those get merged so the defaults that we don't want to touch still are in effect. We originally did not choose to do that to make it slightly easier for users to do system-wide override, but after re-checking more closely, it should be easy enough to do so with drop-in's too.

tl;dr: should be fixed with pve-manager version 8.0.9 that just uploaded to the pvetest repository (after triple reboot testing).

Das Update von 6.5.11-1/pve-8.0.8 auf Kernel 6.5.11-3 und pve-manager/8.0.9/fd1a0ae1b385cdcd hat bei mir problemlos funktioniert!

Kernel 6.5.3-1-pve (like the latest 6.2) does not boot reliably from a Lexar NM790 4TB SSD. Sometimes the kernel boots, sometimes the boot process aborts with "nvme nvme0: Device not ready; aborting initialisation, CSTS=0x0", dropping to BusyBox. A patch is available since 6.5.5 in the mainline kernel. If upstream does not upgrade or backport the patch in the near future, please consider adding it to the PVE build. Multiple users already encountered this issue. Responses in the thread that this build fixed the issue are not correct (tested on NUC7i5).
Does adding "rootdelay=60" or even more help with this issue? I need this on my setup too. Without it, I get a similar error message, something along the line of "Device initialization timed out", I don't remember exactly. However my machine needed this delay already since the time of PVE 5.x kernel.
 
Seeing there was an updated zfsutils-linux: 2.2.0-pve3 already in the no-subscription repo, with changelog:
Code:
 * avoid error from zfs-mount when /etc/exports.d does not exist (yet)

  * ensure vdev_stat struct layout compat between 2.1 and 2.2, avoiding
    false-positive detection of the non-allocating feature from 2.2 when the
    kernel still used the 2.1 module.

After a full-upgrade from current no-subscription repo (I first disabled pvetest) the issues I reported here and here are both solved.
Tested with current kernel 6.2.16-19-pve and 6.5.11-3-pve. Thanks for fixing @t.lamprecht and @Stoiko Ivanov.

I also really appreciate proxmox staff engaging and contributing upstream to the openzfs project, so others outside our nice proxmox community may benefit as well :)

Thanks for your feedback.
And yes, as those two issues could be fixed we felt that it's safe enough to move the packages over to pve-no-subscription.
The 6.5 kernel is (for now) still opt-in, but does not need activating the test repo anymore.
 
should be fixed with pve-manager version 8.0.9
Just for information.

I found a small problem after yesterday's updates from the "pvetest" repository.

Since then, completed backup jobs always send two emails, regardless of the notification setting. Even if no mail address is set at all (then only one mail is sent).

The menu item for switching the notifications from Mail to Target has also disappeared.

Have a nice Sunday ...

This is due to the new notification framework, you can either drop the mail from the jobs to use the new infrastructure, or edit/disable the default matcher under Datacenter -> Notifications.

For backup jobs we still need to do the full-switch to the new infrastructure, it's a bit more intertwined there, and we did not want to rush that part. We'll look into making the upgrade a bit smoother in the future, so that ideally no duplicate mails are produced.
The menu item for switching the notifications from Mail to Target has also disappeared.
The old one that was there for a few weeks in Datacenter? Yeah, that got reworked to a more unified system, avoiding the need for a hard-coded list and group/filters by replacing them with a more flexible and general matcher-based notification routing.

Please also note that this is not dependent on the 6.5 kernel this thread talks about, would be great if you could open a new thread for any further input or question about this topic; still thanks for your feedback!

Also run into the network issue on Saturday night.
Rebooting 6.5.3 instead of 6.5.11-3 worked for me.
It should not, if i read the thread here.
 
Hello all,

Currently running Proxmox 8.0.4 with kernel 5.15.108 on 2 of my Proxmox nodes as that is the last working kernel for them. The Atom c3758 cpu with on MB x553 10g SFP+ x4 fails networking on all the proxmox 6.2 kernels. Similar issues seen from others on the intel x553 SFP+ adapter with VyOS and ubuntu installs, that can be fixed with the latest intel out-of-tree ixgbe module/driver.

Would like to test the latest 6.5 Proxmox kernel on one of these 2 nodes, but when I installed on another node that does not have x553 networking I noticed the older 5.15.108 kernel was automatically removed leaving just the immediate prior 6.2 kernel and new 6.5 kernel. Any way to install without removing the older 5.15 kernel, so that I have it as a fallback? will the ZFS 2.2 run fine, even if lacking new features with the 5.15 kernel?
 
Both of my VMs with PCIe-passthrough (which run perfectly fine on all the 6.2 kernels) can not start anymore on the 6.5 kernel. :(
One of them, as an example:

Both of my VMs with PCIe-passthrough (which run perfectly fine on all the 6.2 kernels) can not start anymore on the 6.5 kernel. :(
can you maybe open a new thread, i'll see if i can reproduce it here

EDIT:

generally passthrough works here (tested on a consumer amd board, and a older intel server mainboard)

on a hunch: the error message looks more memory than passthrough related, could you maybe try without hugepages ?

Created the thread:
https://forum.proxmox.com/threads/v...do-not-start-anymore-on-pve-kernel-6-5.136741

Will test later and give feedback in the separate thread.
Thank you so far. :)
 
A bit late in reply but some feedback - been running this for a couple of weeks on two machines. No problems noticed whatsoever.

Machines are
1x AMD EPYC 7282 and 1x AMD Ryzen 3600x

Storage is NVMe ZFS for root partitions with the Epyc running a storage cluster on platter drives (ZFS).

Cheers for the efforts!
