+ That creatures a "mirror" pool with the two drives, which is
+ essentially a RAID-1 mirror. You could also do a RAID-Z pool, if
+ you have an odd number of drives, which is sort of like a RAID-5
+ array, except you have a flexible number of spares:
+
+ zpool create \
+ -o ashift=12 \

+ -O compression=zstd \
+ -O relatime=on \
+ -O canmount=off \
+ -O mountpoint=none \
+ -f \
+ tank \
+ raidz sda1 sdb1 sdc1
+
+ To calculate the tradeoff, you can compute the final size of the
+ array with the formula `(N-P)*X`, where N is the number of drives,
+ P is the parity, and X is the size.
+
+ As a rule of thumb, with 1 spare, it's like RAID-5. Note that
+ RAID-Z cannot be resized, so in the above, you will be stuck with
+ 3 drives in that array forever. It *can* be grown in *size* by
+ replacing the drives with bigger ones progressively, that said.
+
+ Jim Salter [recommends mirrors instead of RAID-Z](https://jrs-s.net/2015/02/06/zfs-you-should-use-mirror-vdevs-not-raidz/), but the
+ [rsync.net people recommend RAID-Z3 with 12-15 drives joined in
+ 3-4 vdev pools](https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25360013) (which would make ~20-36PiB arrays with 8TiB
+ drives, by the way). Note that this means *three* spares in a
+ 12-15 drive array, or a 20-25% ratio.
+
+ [dRAID](https://openzfs.github.io/openzfs-docs/Basic%20Concepts/dRAID%20Howto.html) is similar, except resilvering is faster, as the spare
+ is distributed among all the devices. The [TrueNAS
+ documentation](https://www.truenas.com/docs/references/draidprimer/) doesn't recommend dRAID except in special

+Say you have a pool that's mirrored between two encrypted drives:
+
+```
+root@marcos:/home/anarcat# zpool status
+ pool: tank
+ state: ONLINE
+ scan: scrub repaired 0B in 1 days 12:16:25 with 0 errors on Mon Feb 10 12:41:24 2025

+ tank ONLINE 0 0 0
+ mirror-0 ONLINE 0 0 0
+ crypt_dev_sdb1 ONLINE 0 0 0
+ crypt_dev_sdc1 ONLINE 0 0 0
+```
+
+You want to grow this array with two more mirrored drives.
+
+ 1. First, partition the drives:
+
+ for disk in /dev/sde /dev/sdd ; do
+ parted -s $disk mklabel gpt &&
+ parted -s $disk -a optimal mkpart primary 0% 100%
+ done
+
+ 2. Setup full disk encryption:
+
+ for disk in sde1 sdd1 ; do
+ cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/$disk
+ cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/$disk crypt_dev_$disk
+ echo crypt_dev_$disk UUID=$(lsblk -n -o UUID /dev/$disk | head -1) none luks,discard | tee -a /etc/crypttab &&
+ done
+
+ Use a `--keyfile` to avoid typing, while retaining the backup
+ recovery password:
+
+ for disk in sde1 sdd1 ; do
+ cryptsetup luksFormat /dev/$disk &&
+ cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/$disk crypt_dev_$disk &&
+ mkdir -p -m 0 /etc/luks &&
+ ( umask 077 && dd if=/dev/random bs=64 count=128 of=/etc/luks/crypt_dev_$disk ) &&
+ cryptsetup luksAddKey /dev/$disk /etc/luks/crypt_dev_$disk &&
+ echo crypt_dev_$disk UUID=$(lsblk -n -o UUID /dev/$disk | head -1) /etc/luks/crypt_dev_$disk luks,discard | tee -a /etc/crypttab
+ done
+
+ The above will ask you for the encryption key *four* times, but
+ will not require typing it on boot *while* simultaneously allowing
+ recovery without the key file.
+
+ 3. add the drives as a mirror vdev to the pool:
+
+ root@marcos:/home/anarcat# zpool add -n tank mirror /dev/sdb2 /dev/sdd2
+ would update 'tank' to the following configuration:
+
+ tank
+ mirror-0
+ crypt_dev_sdb1
+ crypt_dev_sdc1
+ mirror
+ sdb2
+ sdd2
+
+ Notice how we use `-n` to simulate the result here. This adds another
+ mirror, essentially turning the pool in a RAID-10 mirror. See also
+ the notes about RAID-Z and dRAID in the pool creation above.
+
+ Note that this is likely *not* the right time to change the pool
+ layout: if you have a mirror layout, keep a mirror layout. If you
+ have a RAID-Z layout, keep that layout as well, just make a new
+ RAID-Z vdev instead.
+
+Note that you `zpool add`, you do *not* `zpool attach`: that would add
+a spare to a mirror, effectively.

+This is going to be a controversial statement because some people are
+absolute nerds about this, but, I need to say it.
+
+[Qalculate](https://qalculate.github.io/) is the best calculator that has ever been made.
+
+I am not going to try to convince you of this, I just wanted to put
+out my bias out there before writing down those notes.
+
+This page will collect my notes of cool hacks I do with
+Qalculate. Most examples are copy-pasted from the command-line
+interface (`qalc(1)`), but I typically use the graphical interface as
+it's slightly better at displaying complex formulas. Discoverability
+is obviously also better for the cornucopia of features this fantastic
+application ships.
+
+# Qalc commandline primer
+
+On Debian, Qalculate's CLI interface can be installed with:
+
+ apt install qalc
+
+Then you start it with the `qalc` command, and end up on a prompt:
+
+```
+anarcat@angela:~$ qalc
+>
+```
+
+Then it's a normal calculator:
+
+```
+anarcat@angela:~$ qalc
+> 1+1
+
+ 1 + 1 = 2
+
+> 1/7
+
+ 1 / 7 ≈ 0.1429
+
+> pi
+
+ pi ≈ 3.142
+
+>
+```
+
+There's a bunch of variables to control display, approximation, and so
+on:
+
+```
+> set precision 6
+> 1/7
+
+ 1 / 7 ≈ 0.142857
+> set precision 20
+> pi
+
+ pi ≈ 3.1415926535897932385
+```
+
+When I need more, I typically browse around the menus. One big issue I
+have with Qalculate is there are a *lot* of menus and features. I had
+to fiddle quite a bit to figure out that `set precision` command
+above. I might add more examples here as I find them.
+
+# Bandwidth estimates
+
+I often use the data units to estimate bandwidths. For example, here's
+what 1 megabit per second is over a month ("about 300 GiB"):
+
+```
+> 1 megabit/s * 30 day to gibibyte
+
+ (1 megabit/second) × (30 days) ≈ 301.7 GiB
+```
+
+Or, "how long will it take to download X", in this case, 1GiB over a
+100 mbps link:
+
+```
+> 1GiB/(100 megabit/s)
+
+ (1 gibibyte) / (100 megabits/second) ≈ 1 min + 25.90 s
+```
+
+# Password entropy
+
+To calculate how much entropy (in bits) a given password structure,
+you count the number of possibilities in each entry (say, `[a-z]` is
+26 possibilities, "one word in a 8k dictionary" is 8000), extract the
+base-2 logarithm, multiplied by the number of entries.
+
+For example, an alphanumeric 14-character password is:
+
+```
+> log2(26*2)*14
+
+ log₂(26 × 2) × 14 ≈ 79.81
+```
+
+... 80 bits of entropy. To get the equivalent in a diceware password
+with a 8000 word dictionary, you would need:
+
+```
+> log2(8k)*x = 80
+
+ (log₂(8 × 000) × x) = 80 ≈
+
+ x ≈ 6.170
+```
+
+... about 6 words, which gives you:
+
+```
+> log2(8k)*6
+
+ log₂(8 × 1000) × 6 ≈ 77.79
+```
+
+78 bits of entropy.
+
+# Exchange rates
+
+You can convert between currencies!
+
+```
+> 1 EUR to USD
+
+ 1 EUR ≈ 1.038 USD
+```
+
+Even fake ones!
+
+```
+> 1 BTC to USD
+
+ 1 BTC ≈ 96712 USD
+```
+
+This relies on a database pulled form the internet (typically the
+[central european bank rates](https://www.ecb.europa.eu/stats/eurofxref/eurofxref-daily.xml), see [the source](https://github.com/Qalculate/libqalculate/blob/4acd56ce0c2703af80d6a8857c963d4400f2091f/libqalculate/Calculator-definitions.cc#L3950-L3966)). It will prompt
+you if it's too old:
+
+```
+It has been 256 days since the exchange rates last were updated.
+Do you wish to update the exchange rates now? y
+```
+
+The graphical version has a little graphical indicator that, when you
+mouse over, tells you where the rate comes from.
+
+# Other conversions
+
+Here are other neat conversions extracted from my history
+
+```
+> teaspoon to ml
+
+ teaspoon = 5 mL
+
+> tablespoon to ml
+
+ tablespoon = 15 mL
+
+> 1 cup to ml
+
+ 1 cup ≈ 236.6 mL
+
+> 6 L/100km to mpg
+
+ (6 liters) / (100 kilometers) ≈ 39.20 mpg
+
+> 100 kph to mph
+
+ 100 kph ≈ 62.14 mph
+
+> (108km - 72km) / 110km/h
+
+ ((108 kilometers) − (72 kilometers)) / (110 kilometers/hour) ≈
+ 19 min + 38.18 s
+```
+
+# Completion time estimates
+
+This is a more involved example I often do.
+
+## Background
+
+Say you have started a long running copy job and you don't have the
+luxury of having a pipe you can insert pv(1) into to get a nice
+progress bar. For example, `rsync` or `cp -R` can have that problem
+(but not `tar`!).

+### deborphan retirement
+
+The venerable `deborphan` package has been removed ([1065310](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1065310))!
+That's a bit of a surprise, and kind of a big concern, because we were
+using it in our upgrade procedure, to cleanup things after
+upgrades. It's also part of the [official upgrade procedures](https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/release-notes/upgrading.en.html#obsolete-packages), or
+at least it [was in bookworm](https://www.debian.org/releases/testing/release-notes/upgrading.en.html#transitional-dummy-packages):
+
+> The package descriptions for transitional dummy packages usually
+> indicate their purpose. However, they are not uniform; in
+> particular, some "dummy" packages are designed to be kept installed,
+> in order to pull in a full software suite, or track the current
+> latest version of some program. You might also find deborphan with
+> the --guess-* options (e.g. --guess-dummy) useful to detect
+> transitional dummy packages on your system.
+
+So what do we use `deborphan` for? We were calling it like this:
+
+ apt purge $(deborphan --guess-dummy) &&
+ while deborphan -n | grep -q . ; do apt purge $(deborphan -n); done &&
+
+This, essentially, was doing two things:
+
+ 1. **remove "dummy" packages**: this was looking for the string
+ `dummy` in the `Description:` field, or the regex
+ `transition(|n)($|ing|al|ary| package| purposes)` (see
+ [pkg_info.c](https://sources.debian.org/src/deborphan/1.7.35/src/pkginfo.c/#L75-L88)) when the `--guess-dummy` option is passed
+
+ 2. **remove "obsolete" packages**: this is the primary function of
+ deborphan, which, according to the manual page, is:
+
+ > `deborphan` finds packages that have no packages depending on them.
+ > The default operation is to search within the `libs`, `oldlibs` and
+ > `introspection` sections to hunt down unused libraries.
+
+ Basically, this looks for leaf packages in the specified
+ sections. All sections can be checked with `--all` or packages can
+ be included based on their name with heuristics hardcoded in the
+ source code through commandline flags (e.g. `--guess-python` looks
+ for packages like `^python[[:digit:].]*-` or `--guess-perl` witll
+ do `^lib.*-perl$`) but we were not using those.
+
+ What we *were* doing is disabling the "nice mode" with `-n`
+ (which, in long form, is confusingly called `--nice-mode` even
+ though it *disables* the nice mode). This stops considering
+ `Suggests` or `Recommends` in the list of dependencies for
+ packages that can be removed.
+
+To work around the removal, we used `apt-mark` to take care of the
+packages in libs/oldlibs:
+
+ apt-mark auto '~i !~M (~slibs|~soldlibs|~sintrospection)'
+
+Then we use the `apt search` interface, even though it warns us about
+the API, because we need to match for installed packages, which is not
+included in the `apt-cache` output. We look for packages matching a
+the "dummy" patterns and mark those as "auto" as well:
+
+ apt-mark auto $(apt search 'apt search 'transition(|n)($|ing|al|ary| package| purposes)' | grep '^[^ ].*\[installed' | sed 's,/.*,,') &&
+ apt-mark auto $(apt search dummy | grep '^[^ ].*\[installed' | sed 's,/.*,,')) &&
+
+Then we let the autopurge get rid of those packages automatically.
+
+One bit we're missing from the previous incantation is the recursive
+aspect. We were looping over `deborphan -n` until it was empty, and
+were often picking up more than one items in the chain. I'm not sure
+how to fix that without turning this into an even uglier shell
+pipeline.
+
+Note that this doesn't cover "obsolete" packages in the sense of
+"packages that are not in Debian anymore". This used to be done with
+`apt-forktracer`, and we're now relying on the `?obsolete` pattern
+from apt. We're also doing this horror:
+
+ apt list "?narrow(?installed, ?not(?codename($(lsb_release -c -s | tail -1))))" &&
+

+### unshare configuration
+
+Everyone seems to be switching to unshare as a schroot backend,
+[including the official debian.org builders](https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2024/11/msg00002.html). The [official sbuild
+instructions](https://wiki.debian.org/sbuild) also use unshare now, this is my take.
+
+ 1. install necessary packages
+
+ sudo apt install sbuild mmdebstrap uidmap
+
+ 2. create directory to store images
+
+ mkdir -p ~/.cache/sbuild
+
+ Note that jumped around quite a lot for me. It used to be in
+ `/srv/sbuild` for qemu, but this was bind-mounted to
+ `/home/sbuild`, which begs the question of why it can't just be in
+ `~/.cache` after all, although I have Puppet managing `/srv`.
+
+ 3. create an unstable image:
+
+ mmdebstrap --include=ca-certificates --skip=output/dev --variant=buildd unstable ~/.cache/sbuild/unstable-amd64.tar.zst https://deb.debian.org/debian
+
+ This install took 42 seconds in my experience.
+
+ 4. tweak `.sbuildrc`:
+
+ $chroot_mode = 'unshare';
+
+ Remove any `$piuparts_opts`, `$autopkgtest_virt_server_options`,
+ or `$autopkgtest_opts`
+
+The guide argues against running this, but you can update the tarballs
+with:
+
+ sbuild-update --chroot-mode=unshare --update --upgrade --dist-upgrade --autoremove oldstable stable unstable
+
+This takes 6 seconds in my tests, much faster than rebuilding from
+scratch.
+
+Note that we don't care about doing overlayfs or fancy copy-on-write
+stuff, the tarballs apparently take only two seconds to
+decompresss. See also [this discussion](https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=960950).

+[[!meta title="Trixie upgrade"]]
+
+[[!toc levels=3]]
+
+This document contains my upgrade procedure, notable changes in the
+new version, issues I have stumbled upon (and possibly fixed), and
+troubleshooting instructions.
+
+It does not hope to replace the official documentation: it is a
+personal, living document that I have started keeping back when I
+upgraded to [[jessie]]. The other documents can be found in the parent
+[[upgrades]] page.
+
+# Procedure
+
+This procedure is designed to be applied, in batch, on multiple
+servers. Do NOT follow this procedure unless you are familiar with the
+command line and the Debian upgrade process. It has been crafted by
+and for experienced system administrators that have dozens if not
+hundreds of servers to upgrade.
+
+In particular, it runs almost completely unattended: configuration
+changes are not prompted during the upgrade, and just not applied at
+all, which *will* break services in many cases. I use a
+[clean-conflicts](https://gitlab.com/anarcat/koumbit-scripts/-/blob/master/vps/clean_conflicts) script to do this all in one shot to shorten the
+upgrade process (without it, configuration file changes stop the
+upgrade at more or less random times). Then those changes get applied
+after a reboot. And yes, that's even more dangerous.
+
+IMPORTANT: if you are doing this procedure over SSH (I had the
+privilege of having a console), you may want to [upgrade SSH first](https://www.debian.org/releases/trixie/amd64/release-notes/ch-information.en.html#ssh-not-available)
+as it has a longer downtime period, especially if you are on a flaky
+connection.
+
+Make sure you read the [conflicts resolution section below](#conflicts-resolution) for how
+to handle `clean_conflicts` output.
+
+This procedure *may* kill your graphical session, so make sure you
+can log back in over a serial console or virtual terminal.
+
+ 1. Preparation:
+
+ : reset to the default locale
+ export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 &&
+ : install some dependencies
+ sudo apt install ttyrec screen debconf-utils deborphan &&
+ : create ttyrec file with adequate permissions &&
+ sudo touch /var/log/upgrade-trixie.ttyrec &&
+ sudo chmod 600 /var/log/upgrade-trixie.ttyrec &&
+ sudo ttyrec -a -e screen /var/log/upgrade-trixie.ttyrec
+
+ 2. Backups and checks:
+
+ (
+ umask 0077 &&
+ tar cfz /var/backups/pre-trixie-backup.tgz /etc /var/lib/dpkg /var/lib/apt/extended_states /var/cache/debconf $( [ -e /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates ] && echo /var/lib/aptitude/pkgstates ) &&
+ dpkg --get-selections "*" > /var/backups/dpkg-selections-pre-trixie.txt &&
+ debconf-get-selections > /var/backups/debconf-selections-pre-trixie.txt
+ ) &&
+ ( puppet agent --test || true )&&
+ apt-mark showhold &&
+ dpkg --audit &&
+ : look for dkms packages and make sure they are relevant, if not, purge. &&
+ ( dpkg -l '*dkms' || true ) &&

+ /home/anarcat/src/koumbit-scripts/vps/clean_conflicts &&
+ : run backups &&
+ /home/anarcat/bin/backup-$(hostname) &&
+ printf "End of Step 2\a\n"
+
+ 3. Perform any pending upgrade and clear out old pins:
+
+ puppet agent --disable "running major upgrade" &&
+ apt update && apt -y upgrade &&
+ : Check for pinned, on hold, packages, and possibly disable &&
+ rm -f /etc/apt/preferences /etc/apt/preferences.d/* &&

+ apt autoremove -y --purge &&
+ : possibly clean up old kernels &&
+ dpkg -l 'linux-image-*' &&
+ : look for packages from backports, other suites or archives &&
+ : if possible, switch to official packages by disabling third-party repositories &&
+ apt-forktracer &&
+ printf "End of Step 3\a\n"
+
+ 5. Check free space (see [this guide to free up space][]), disable
+ auto-upgrades, and download packages:
+
+ systemctl stop apt-daily.timer &&
+ sed -i 's#bookworm-security#trixie-security#' $(ls /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*) &&
+ sed -i 's/bookworm/trixie/g' $(ls /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/*) &&
+ apt update &&
+ apt -y -d full-upgrade &&
+ apt -y -d upgrade &&
+ apt -y -d dist-upgrade &&
+ df -h &&
+ printf "End of Step 4\a\n"
+
+[this guide to free up space]: http://www.debian.org/releases/trixie/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html#sufficient-space
+
+ 5. Actual upgrade run:
+
+ : put server in maintenance &&
+ sudo touch /etc/nologin &&
+ env DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive APT_LISTCHANGES_FRONTEND=none APT_LISTBUGS_FRONTEND=none UCF_FORCE_CONFFOLD=y \
+ apt full-upgrade -y -o Dpkg::Options::='--force-confdef' -o Dpkg::Options::='--force-confold' &&
+ printf "End of Step 5\a\n"
+
+ 6. Post-upgrade procedures:
+
+ apt-get update --allow-releaseinfo-change &&
+ puppet agent --enable &&
+ puppet agent -t --noop &&
+ printf "Press enter to continue, Ctrl-C to abort." &&
+ read -r _ &&
+ (puppet agent -t || true) &&

+ systemctl start apt-daily.timer &&
+ printf "End of Step 6\a\n" &&
+ shutdown -r +1 "rebooting to get rid of old kernel image..."
+
+ 7. Post-upgrade checks:
+
+ export LC_ALL=C.UTF-8 &&
+ sudo ttyrec -a -e screen /var/log/upgrade-trixie.ttyrec
+
+ apt-mark manual bind9-dnsutils puppet-agent
+ apt purge gcc-9-base gcc-10-base apt-forktracer
+ apt purge $(dpkg -l | awk '/^rc/ { print $2 }') # purge removed packages

+ while deborphan -n | grep -q . ; do apt purge $(deborphan -n); done
+ apt autoremove -y --purge
+ apt clean
+ # review and purge older kernel if the new one boots properly
+ dpkg -l 'linux-image*'
+ # review packages that are not in the new distribution
+ apt purge '?obsolete'
+ apt list "?narrow(?installed, ?not(?codename($(lsb_release -c -s | tail -1))))" &&
+ printf "All procedures completed\a\n" &&
+
+## Conflicts resolution
+
+When the `clean_conflicts` script gets run, it asks you to check each
+configuration file that was modified locally but that the Debian
+package upgrade wants to overwrite. You need to make a decision on
+each file. This section aims to provide guidance on how to handle
+those prompts.
+
+Those config files should be manually checked on each host:
+
+ /etc/default/grub.dpkg-dist
+ /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf.dpkg-dist
+
+If other files come up, they should be added in the above decision
+list, or in an operation in step 2 or 7 of the above procedure, before
+the `clean_conflicts` call.
+
+Files that should be updated in Puppet are mentioned in the Issues
+section below as well.
+
+# Notable changes

+Here are some packages with notable version changes that I
