1. Introduction
    1.1. Project/Component Working Name:
	 Move GNU tar to /usr/bin
    1.2. Name of Document Author/Supplier:
	 Author:  Craig Mohrman
    1.3  Date of This Document:
	01 November, 2007
4. Technical Description

Summary

	This project moves GNU tar from /usr/sfw/bin to /usr/bin and
	updates the version from 1.14 to 1.17.

4.1 Details

	The actual binary moves from /usr/sfw/bin/gtar to /usr/bin/gtar.
        A link is left behind from /usr/sfw/bin/gtar to /usr/bin/gtar.
        In addition /usr/gnu/bin/tar will be a link to /usr/bin/gtar.
	There is also a GNU rmt command that will move from
	/usr/sfw/libexec/grmt to /usr/libexec/rmt.
        The GNU tar man page moves to /usr/share/man and an appropriate link
        is placed in /usr/gnu/man.

	Numerous localized message files move from /usr/sfw/lib/locale
	to /usr/lib/locale.
	An info file moves from /usr/sfw/share/info/tar.info to
	/usr/share/info/tar.info.

4.2 BUG/RFE Number(s):
	6407045 Upgrade GNU tar (gtar) to 1.15.90 to address CVE-2006-0300
	6621125 move GNU gtar from /usr/sfw/bin to /usr/bin

One area of possible concern is the naming of the info pages.  
Specifically, GNU/Linux (gawd that sounds awful) call GNU tar "tar", and 
"info tar" returns meaningful information on that version.

On Solaris, /usr/bin/tar (and indeed "tar", unless /usr/gnu is in your 
path first!) will be the Solaris version, and thus "info tar", as 
proposed by this case, will have information about the program called 
"gtar" rather than the program called "tar".

IOW, wouldn't it make more sense to rename the info page to 
"gtar.info"?  (Of course, that has its own implications for people 
working on Linux systems used to typing "info tar".... you just can't win!)

Btw, the man pages have the same issue, right?  They have to be gtar.1, 
not tar.1, to avoid collision with our Solaris versions.

I forgot to mention that I am sponsoring this case for Craig Mohrman
and this case seeks a minor release binding.

This is being filed as a fast track rather than as a self approved case
only because the GNU tar version is changing in addition to moving the
binaries from /usr/sfw/bin to /usr/bin.

Cheers,
Don

Perhaps it makes sense to also deliver a gtar.info but the information
in the file will still refer to just "tar".

gtar.1 will be delivered under /usr/share/man.  tar.1 will be delivered
under /usr/gnu/share/man as a link to gtar.1

I guess architecturally, I find it a little dissatisfying (and maybe 
there is nothing to be done for it) that documentation refers to one 
program name, while the actual binaries are called something else.

Is it unreasonable to suggest/recommend/request that the documentation 
be edited for delivery into ON?

Cool.  Will the man page reference both /usr/bin/gtar and 
/usr/gnu/bin/tar as alternative ways of getting to the same program?  
(I.e. this may be another case where the documentation needs to be 
edited to reflect actuality.)

I understand a desire to minimize changes relative to upstream sources, 
but I think accuracy of the documentation trumps (or should trump) that 
concern.

We have no /usr/libexec this case appears to be precedent setting 
without detailing what the precedent for /usr/libexec is.

I know we have /usr/sfw/libexec but that only has the above mentioned 
rmt and some gcc stuff.

I can't approve this case without the rules for /usr/libexec being 
defined.  Personally I do not think we should have /usr/libexec in 
Solaris we already have a huge amount of non .so content in /usr/lib 
including what on GNU systems goes in /usr/libexec.

I think that this rmt could live in either /usr/gnu/libexec/rmt 
/usr/lib/grmt or similar, but not /usr/libexec - unless the rules are 
defined and we expect more than just this to live there.

There is _absolutely_ no need to have grmt as there is the rmt from
the star package that is a superset of all other known rmt packages.

ARC already decided to replace /etc/rmt by the rmt from star.

Please do not balcanize OpenSolaris!

Instead of adding unneeded communication software better implement 
PSARC/2004/480

It contains the decision to replace /etc/rmt & /usr/sbin/rmt
by the rmt program that comes with star. This program implements a superset
of all known rmt implementations and is the only grant for compatibility.

What is "/usr/libexec"?

There's no such thing on Solaris.  Is this project intentionally
proposing a new /usr entry?  If so, I'd like to see a good definition
of its semantics for the filesystem(5) page.

Otherwise, I think this belongs in "/usr/lib", unless there's some
technical reason to prefer "libexec."

This component will be delivered via SFW and not ON - and while I share
the concern about the discrepancy in the name, we also try to avoid
making gratuitous changes to the files delivered components by the
consolidation.  Admitted, this is perhaps a small enough change that
warrants it being done but in general I would recommend against it
(perhaps a better idea would be to patch  the file with a small note at
the beginning indicating it refers to GNU tar but I would leave that to
the project team to decide).

I think that should be left to the project team.

Shouldn't this page have A LINE ADDED to it that tells the user
that there are multiple tars on the system and where to look for them?

At least after GNU tar is moved to /usr/bin/ it seems to be important that 
either a newer version is used _and_ the comnpilation is done in a way that
tells GNU tar to default to the POSIX.1-1988 tar archive format or that the man
mage gets a big warning that GNU tar by default creates non-standard archives
that cannot be read by vanilla tar programs.

A sidenote: Sun should help to tell the FSF that POSIX mentions man(1)
but not "info". Documentation in info style therefore is a second class citizen.
A program thatcomes with info but not with a man(1) compliant documentation 
must be called undocumented.

Given that the traditional use of /usr/lib includes more content than
just libraries and that the need for familiarity it much more important
for commands instead of support programs such as "rmt", I'm fine with
not introducing /usr/libexec.  I'll work with the submitter and case
sponsor to upgrade the case accordingly.

I could understand placing such a warning if GNU tar was replacing the
existing implementation under /usr/bin but this case doesn't propose
such a thing.

Looks like you missunderstood the current plans:

They allow people to set up an environment that looks as if GNU tar replaced
the standard tar. If someone set's up such an environment, he could claim that
an archive that has been created with "tar" on Solaris cannot be read back on 
Solaris by other people.

It's the default user environment in the Indiana release.

(which means it cannot unpack certain Sun created tar archives)

Could you please elaborate?

I did not yet have the time to test the preview but if the default user setup
creates a non-UNIX environment, this would be a really bad idea.

Regarding tar compatibility... Did you understand why I am talking about 
tarcompatibility often? Unfortunately, Sun tar definitely creates similar 
problems as GNU tar. Sun tar may create archives with vendor uniqie extensions
that make it hard to unpack with other standard tar archivers.

It would be great if Sun is finally ready for a useful discussion on tar and if
people understand that all tar reated PSARC cases from the last 2 years did harm
the tar compatibility of Solaris.

The project team has made minor updates to the proposal to address
concerns raised by Darren, Garrett, and internal project team members.
(GNU rmt will move from /usr/sfw/libexec/grmt to /usr/lib/grmt instead
of /usr/libexec/rmt, man page links will be placed in
/usr/gnu/share/man instead of /usr/gnu/man, localized message files
will move from /usr/sfw/lib/locale to /usr/share/locale instead of
/usr/lib/locale, and /usr/sfw/share/info/tar.info moves to
/usr/share/info/gtar.info instead of /usr/share/info/tar.info.)

The original proposal is in the case directory as the file
"proposal.orig" and the diffmarked, updated proposal is in the case
directory as the file "proposal".

The project team is still looking at possible changes to gtar.info to
make it clearer that there are multiple versions of tar.

As I mentioned already, grmt is not needed as the rmt program from star
is replacing /etc/rmt ans this rmt implementation is a true superset of the
functionality of all known rmt implementation.

And, has already been pointed out, star has been in the process of
replacing stuff for well over three years.  When you integrate star
into a Solaris gate, then we can consider dropping support for grmt;
until then, your proposed replacement for /etc/rmt is not an actual
replacement for grmt.

I've taken a look at the GNU tar documentation, and unless I'm
misunderstanding this, it looks like this issue has gotten pretty
confused, and it seems that we need some technical input from the
project team.

First of all, there doesn't appear to be a GNU variant of "rmt."
Instead, GNU tar comes with a copy of the original BSD rmt, just as we
already have.

Secondly, as there doesn't appear to be a variant here, issues about
replacing it or preserving the GNU-ness seem to be misplaced.  We
should just discard it as unnecessary.

The *one* important issue is the one we've actually trampled into the
ground, and that's the issue about the location.  According to the
GNU documentation, /usr/libexec/rmt isn't negotiable.  My guess would
be (and I haven't looked at the sources) that they try
/usr/libexec/rmt first and then historical /etc/rmt when invoking it.

On that theory (project team: please verify), both delivering as
/usr/libexec/grmt and as /usr/lib/grmt are wrong, because nothing will
look there for this helper binary.  It won't be compatible, because
the path is effectively part of the wire protocol.

If that's correct, then we should either deliver /usr/libexec/rmt as a
symlink or (perhaps better yet) do nothing.

Is there a chance that you come to reality?

The case PSARC/2004/480 has not been made for fun but because there is a _need_
to integrate star into Solaris.

The people who are currently working on the GNU tar could e.g. do the more 
important tasks first and make PSARC/2004/480 reality.

PSARC/2004/480 has not been done for fun but because Solaris urgently 
_needs_ the code from star for compatibility. 

Your claim is wrong in two ways:

-	GNU tar does _not_ come with a copy of the original BSD rmt.
	It comes with some important extensions that give better
	compatibility. Well, it is based on the original 1981 rmt source
	from BSD... but this does not mean anything.

-	Solaris /etc/rmt is not even truely _based_ on the original 
	BSD rmt. It has been written at UCB for Sun but it behaves
	different. Sun rmt implements some other addidions that
	give better compatibility and it implements it's code 
	dual-threaded which makes it ~ 30% slower than the star
	implementation.

Star's "rmt" implements all additions from all known rmt implementations
and it implements own additions that give further enhanced compatibolity.
Star's rmt in addition implements:

-	IPv6 support

-	ssh support

-	better and configurable security.

Star's "rmt" server is the only rmt server that nicely plays with all rmt 
clients.


It makes no sense to add just another rmt implementation that inly gives very 
limited compatibility.

My experience is that they try just the first compiled in path.

Not entirely. The client gtar will look for rmt on the remote machine
vaia a path that it thinks is sensible. For example, /usr/sfw/bin/gtar
expects to find /usr/sfw/libexec/rmt on the remote machine. So
provided that the path where rmt lives and the path compiled into
gtar match, everything is fine.

Which all breaks down in a heterogeneous environment. Two
different machines may have different ideas where rmt lives.

It depends which gtar we're trying to match the behaviour of. If
we want to interoperate with Solaris 10 clients, then we need to
deliver /usr/sfw/libexec/rmt. If we want to interoperate with gtar
from another OS, then we need to deliver rmt where that OS
expects to find it. If we want to interoperate with the gtar covered
by this case, then we need to be sure that we either configure it
to look for /etc/rmt or have a copy of rmt where we're going to
look for it.

It goes the other way. If we expect users to use gtar to talk to rmt on
remote systems, then we should choose an rmt location that's going
to exist on other systems. I don't have access to any other systems,
but it might be sensible to make a survey of where other platforms
place their rmt.

Jörg -

Could you do this yourself?  If you're too busy, imagine that others are
too.  Whatever you do, please stop going on about star.

Joerg, either do the work to integrate star or stop complaining it isn't
integrated.

With doing the work I mean:

	- do the work upto the point that it you or someone else can do
	  a commit/putback.


Expecting other people to do that work is beyond reason.

Reality is that *you* need to drive star integration.

I tried.  You want to integrate a star which provides interfaces beyond 
those
in 2004/480.  I tried several times to get you to provide a new case, which
adds the new interfaces and then depends upon 480.  I tried for a couple
of weeks and could not get you to write a declarative document.  Eventually,
I lost interest.

I understand that you had trouble getting a sponsor.  Until the 
specification
is produced, that is irrelevant.

If this is important to you, then make it be so.  If you are more interested
with casting aspersions on others to cover you failings, please stop.

Bart, I need help with the makefiles and other Sun specific parts.

I *may* have said this about being a sponsor -- I don't exactly recall -- I
suspect you might be right.  There certainly was a lack of sponsors at
that time.

However, I never said I wouldn't sponsor the fast-track to add the new
features.

Just so its clear, that work involves:

    * Any PSARC efforts (if any interfaces, including CLI options, 
protocols, or file formats, have changed, then an update fasttrack is 
probably required)

    * Get code reviews done (I think you need to have input from someone 
in Don Cragun's group here)

    * Get testing done.  There may be compliance tests for POSIX that 
need to be done.  Again, Don can probably help you find someone who can 
identify what those tests are, and either enable you to run them or have 
someone run them for you.

    * Submit a request-sponsor to find someone willing to help with the 
final RTI

None of this is terribly difficult, *IF* there is not any technically 
controversial bits.  I'm not sure that "IF" clause holds in your case 
though... I know that part of the problem is compatibility is with Sun 
products (which may or may not be POSIX compatible by default... that's 
actually irrelevant).  I'm not interested in hearing the details, so 
don't bother responding to me directly.  But I don't want you to feel 
like we've left you with no idea how to proceed.

What about the extensions beyond the currently approved case (2004/480)?

This entire subthread is at best barely related with the case at hand,
once again.

May I suggest it move to a more appropriate list?

Joerg:

Getting a fast-track sponsor for a case would be relatively trivial *if* 
you do the up front work to write up the draft materials.  The sponsor 
would presumably even offer editorial advice.

Of course, since you are Sun now, you could even request to become 
either a PSARC intern or licensee.

Nothing has "changed", the interfaces have been enhanced in a compatible way.

What kind of code review do you expect?

I am not sure whether these people will be able to do a code review for
67000 lines of code (1.6 MB) anytime soon.

This sounds funny!

Sun tar is tested against star to verify POSIX compliance. How do you like
to test star?

How to do that?

Even compatible interface changes are still changes, and need ARC review.

You can break it up across multiple people.  Code doesn't get putback to 
Solaris without at least two sets of eyes looking at it.  Whether it has 
1 line of change, or 1M lines of change.

I don't know how to test it.  But you had better find out what is 
required, and I think that means working with Don, before you file an RTI.

Actually, since I have learned that you are in SWAN already, you can 
file the RTI yourself.  BUt I did omit one step, which is that you have 
to integrate star into a local workspace of your own, and make sure that 
it builds properly (including a full ON build).  If you are integrating 
into SFW, rather than ON, the rules may be different.

I thought I was pretty clear above.  You seem unwilling to even try to 
figure it out.

We have examined this more carefully and will do as James suggests
in terms of NOT shipping the rmt that comes bundled with gtar and WILL
use the bundled Sun rmt instead.

So we withdraw the creation of /usr/libexec/rmt and /usr/libexec (old 
spec) and
/usr/lib/grmt (new spec).  So no (g)rmt.

For completeness sake we will delete /usr/sfw/libexec/grmt and not be 
adding/moving
another (g)rmt.

Well sure,... you can either review the newer features or disable them 
in such a delivery.

Including the newer features in the delivery without them being 
reviewed/approved
is not an option.

Actually, disabling them might not be a bad idea.  If I remember the 
newer features,
not providing them would disappoint some users, but I think only a small 
number.
I'd guess the biggest disappointment would be the "Solaris is *still* 
behind the times"
background noise.

"enhanced in a compatible way" is "changed.  Its just a compatible 
change.  As a matter
of fact, PSARC usually denies incompatible changes.

I guess I'll say it again.  The interfaces are approved by PSARC.  Each 
of those
incremental changes need to be approved.

You've been lurking on the psarc aliases for quite a long time.  You've 
surely
seen the fast-tracks which add a simple option?  (Example: the loader guys).
Why would this paradigm not apply to star?

Just for the record, the ability to interpret an additional format is an 
interface.
Its not all about option flags.

I realize this is the philosophy, but it doesn't really apply to FOSS 
code we import.   Usually a review happens at the packaging and 
documentation level.

This did not happen for GNU tar, why should it happen for star?

This did not happen for GNU tar, why do you believe it should happen with star?

I have no idea how this works.

I see that some people from Sun try to invent new trap doors every time we 
advance a bit.

If you did GNU tar POSIX compliance, it would not be in Solaris.

Could you please explain why star should have problems with things that have 
never been done with GNU tar?

What do you like to achieve here?

If star should be in sfw, then I see absolutely no need to review the new 
features.

If the code needs a review, why then do you propose to not put it into ON?

I am not willing to disable the new features as this does not make sense
and causes a high workload.

Adding "-/" to Sun tar was denied by me for good reasons: it breaks compatibility.

Why should star go thorugh a system that is even ignored by Sun tar?

As I mentioned already, if GNU tar did have a code review, it could not make
it into Solaris.

Why should star be treated worse than GNU tar?

I could be mistaken, but I don't believe you have a veto here.

I don't see how changes to the existing /usr/bin/tar "ignored" any
part of the review.  More importantly, though, I don't see how *ANY*
of this discussion has *ANYTHING WHATSOEVER* to do with the project
under review.

Please stop discussing star and OpenSolaris tar on this list.  It has
nothing to do with the project under review, which is solely changing
the installed path of GNU tar, an already-delivered component.

The proposal to change the path on GNU tar (which is delivered via
SFW, not ON) was approved during ARC business yesterday.  If you feel
the need to discuss other issues, please take them somewhere else.

Because GNU tar delivers into SFW, and does not claim to be called 
"/usr/bin/tar".

If you are happy being delivered into /usr/sfw/bin/star then much of the 
work can probably be elided.

	Please don't go there.  Go read the 4 or 5 precedent cases dealing
	with the SFW consolidation and shipping with Sun distros.
	IMO, this should be done right, or not at all by the upstream
	maintainer.

I thought that in the first step, star (as sfw) delivers to /usr/bin/star and 
rmt replaces /etc/rmt. As the rmt code did not change (ecept for a security fix)
I do not see the need for a new ARC.

The second step is to change ufsdump to use librmt and after that, we start to
discuss how star replaces /usr/bin/tar

I think that's a bit of a misunderstanding.

The consolidation through which a project delivers has _nothing_ to do
with the path of the installed utility.  In particular, there's no
reason that anything new should ever be added into the /usr/sfw/bin
ghetto.

Delivering via SFW versus ON allows one to take advantage of the
differing integration requirements of the two consolidations.  For
example, SFW emphasizes minimal (preferably zero) change from the
external reference source, while ON emphasizes a consistent and
well-known style for all components.

In any event, as I mentioned before, none of this discussion has
anything to do with the changing of the path for GNU tar.

sfw has different rules than ON as far a makefiles and such.

The interface review and stability rules are the same.  They actually 
apply to
all Sun products (which are currently the same rules adopted by 
OpenSolaris).

I didn't make this assertion.

I *did* suggest it should be in ON.  *You* didn't like the makefile 
rules in ON.

Deja Vu!  Then we are at the same impass we reached before.  I presented 
two options:

    1)    Get the new features reviewed.
    2)    Disable/Remove them.

You get to chose 1) or 2).

You don't get to say "No".

Fine.  This is basically that you refused to implement the equivalent of 
a TCR.

Hence, the C-Team will not allow you to integrate.

If the case is that simple, can we stop debating this issue?

Actually, wasn't this allowed for star, but would be required to allow 
star to replace tar.
Wasn't that this issue?  (Which also explains why gnu got what you seen 
to believe was
preferential treatment.)

Did you read what I said?

I was supporting your abjection for a full code review.

Let me very clear: I was disputing Garrett's assertion that full code 
review was required (for FOSS).

Please send a pointer to the GNU tar material for the comparable case.

Wrong: I take comptibility seriously and this is why I reject attempts to
introduce imcompatibility.

Adding "-/" to Sun tar _did_ introduce incompatibility, this is why it has been 
rejected.

Implementing _features_ is a completely different playground..... 

Implementing a feature for "-/" that does not mean:

	-/              don't strip leading '/'s from file names


Is introducing imcompatiblity. 

So my advise for Sun tar: implement the feature but use a differenr option 
name that does not introduce incompatibility.

PSARC 2004/480 of course did allow  "-/" for star.

This is why the attempt to indroduce a different meaning for Sun tar was 
rejected.

The case materials presented for this case stated that gtar was being
updated from version 1.14 to version 1.17, but did not explicitly list
the differences in options provided by the new version.

For the record, four files have been added to the materials directory:
1.  Option_Changes describes changes in options provided by version
    1.17.
2.  Three info files (tar.info-1, tar.info-2, and tar.info_1.17).
    These provide full documentation on version 1.17.  All three are
    viewable using the command:
	info -f tar.info_1.17

This case remains closed approved.
