Note that this bug is currently not publically visible.  (You need to
be various Red Hat Beta groups in order to view it)

In any case here's the latest version of the libuuid patch, in case
anyone would like to comment.  I believe this to be a more correct way
of solving this problem than the uuid kernel patch, since it does the
right thing even if time goes backwards across a reboot.  And, of
course, it doesn't consume one or two kilobytes of non-swappable
kernel memory.  In this version, the uuidd daemon is optional (it's
mainly useful if you are running some application that requires
hundreds or thousands of UUID's generated per second[1]), and if it's
installed, the libuuid library to start the setuid helper uuidd daemon
when it is needed, and after five minutes of inactivity, the uuidd
daemon will automatically exit, thus conserving memory.

[1] This is not a hypothetical example; it was such an enterprise
application that spawned the Sourceforge, Red Hat, and Novell bug
reports.

commit 740837def7fc55ba6b0368f46a4b4abcaba0becd
Author: Theodore Ts'o <[email protected]>
Date:   Sun Dec 16 17:21:38 2007 -0500

    Add uuidd daemon to prevent duplicate time-based UUID's
    
    Also store the clock sequence information in a state file in
    /var/lib/misc/uuid-clock so that if the time goes backwards the clock
    sequence counter can get bumped.  This allows us to completely
    correctly generate time-based (version 1) UUID's according to the
    algorithm specified RFC 4122.

+.B \-d
+]
+[
+.B \-p

+]
+[
+.B \-s
+.I socketpath
+]

+.I socketpath
+]
+
+.B uuidd \-k
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B uuidd
+daemon is used by the UUID library to generate
+universally unique identifiers (UUIDs), especially time-based UUID's
+in a secure and guaranteed-unique fashion, even in the face of large
+numbers of threads trying to grab UUID's running on different CPU's.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-d
+Run
+.B uuidd
+in debugging mode.  This prevents uuidd from running as a daemon.
+.TP
+.B \-k
+If a currently uuidd daemon is running, kill it.
+.TP
+.BI \-n " number"
+When issuing a test request to a running uuidd, request a bulk response
+of
+.I number
+UUID's.
+.TP
+.BI \-p  " pidfile"
+Specify the pathname where the pid file should be written.  By default,
+the pid file is written to /var/run/uuidd.pid.
+.TP
+.BI \-s " socketpath"
+Specify the pathname used for the unix-domain socket used by uuidd.  By
+qdefault, the pathname used is /var/run/uuidd.sock.  This is primarily
+for debugging purposes, since the pathname is hard-coded in the libuuid
+library.
+.TP
+.B \-r
+Test uuidd by trying to connect to a running uuidd daemon and
+request it to return a random-based UUID.
+.TP
+.B \-t
+Test uuidd by trying to connect to a running uuidd daemon and
+request it to return a time-based UUID.
+.TP
+.BI \-T " timeout"
+Specify a timeout for uuidd.  If specified, then uuidd will exit after
+.I timeout
+seconds of inactivity.
+.SH AUTHOR
+The
+.B uuidd
+daemon  was written by Theodore Ts'o <[email protected]>.
+.SH AVAILABILITY
+.B uuidd
+is part of libuuid from the e2fsprogs package and is available from
+http://e2fsprogs.sourceforge.net.
+.SH "SEE ALSO"
