Fedora 39: rust-resctl-bench 2024-40ee18b2e7 Security Advisory Updates
Summary
resctl-bench is a collection of whole-system benchmarks to evaluate resource
control and hardware behaviors using realistic simulated workloads.
Comprehensive resource control involves the whole system. Furthermore, testing
resource control end-to-end requires scenarios involving realistic workloads
and monitoring their interactions. The combination makes benchmarking resource
control challenging and error-prone. It's easy to slip up on a configuration
and testing with real workloads can be tedious and unreliable.
resctl-bench encapsulates the whole process so that resource control benchmarks
can be performed easily and reliably. It verifies and updates system
configurations, reproduces resource contention scenarios with a realistic
latency-sensitive workload simulator and other secondary workloads, analyzes
the resulting system and workload behaviors, and generates easily
understandable reports.
Update Information:
This update contains builds from a mini-mass-rebuild for Rust applications (and some C-style libraries). Rebuilding with the Rust 1.78 toolchain should fix incomplete debug information for the Rust standard library (and the resulting low-quality stack traces). Additionally, builds will have picked up fixes for some minor low-priority security and / or safety fixes in crate dependencies that had not yet been handled via a separate (targeted) rebuild: h2 v0.3.26+ (denial-of-service): https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0332.html glib v0.19.4+ and backports (UB): https://github.com/gtk-rs/gtk-rs- core/pull/1343 hashbrown v0.14.5+ (UB): https://github.com/rust-lang/hashbrown/pull/511 rustls v0.22.4+, v0.21.11+ (denial-of-service): https://rustsec.org/advisories/RUSTSEC-2024-0336.html
