jdahlin(re-asking question asked in #ubuntu-devel) Was CONFIG_KPROBES recently turned on in ubuntu kernels?01:53
BenCjdahlin: it's disabled on all our architectures02:46
jdahlinBenC: just curious, do you know why?02:46
BenCbecause it's meant for kernel testing and debugging02:48
BenCand generally if you are doing debugging and testing of the kernel, you are compiling your own02:48
jdahlindevelopers are also ubuntu users02:48
jdahlinI'm mainly asking, because I'd like to run systemtap02:48
jdahlinand I'm not really interested in recompling my kernel02:49
BenCit isn't a matter of developer....kernel developers are building their own kernels02:49
BenCwhat is systemtap?02:49
jdahlin'dtrace for linux'02:49

jdahlinhttp://www.redhat.com/magazine/011sep05/features/systemtap/02:49
BenCKPROBES is also marked experimental02:49
BenCisn't dtrace a kernel level tracing tool?02:50
jdahlinare experimental features generally turned off in stock kernels?02:50
jdahlinyes, but useful for monitoring applications02:51
BenCyes, generally, unless enough demand warrants it02:51
jdahlinfedora might have turned on by default02:51
BenCbut this is only the first request02:51
jdahlinsystemtap seems pretty new, I haven't actually managed to use it (since it requires a kernel recompilation)02:51
BenCit's a little late in dapper cycle to enable it, maybe propose it for dapper+102:52
jdahlinbut assuming it can do useful things, it should probably be turned at some point (when both kernel and user space matures)02:52
jdahlinsure, I'm not proposing turning it off just yet02:52
jdahlinerr, on02:52
jdahlinBenC: sounds good. I'll investigate the tool and file a bug for turning on CONFIG_KPROBES for dapper+1 iff it turns out to be useful02:54

netzmeisterhow can i use ioperm in my kernel modul?07:28
netzmeisterWarning: implizite declaration of function ioperm07:29
mjg59netzmeister: You can't. It's a userland call.07:31
netzmeisterany alternatives?07:31
mjg59Why do you need it?07:32
mjg59The kernel can read/write any io ports it wants07:32
netzmeisteri develop a kernel modul to read my uGuru MainBoard controller.. (CPU temp etc..)07:32
netzmeistermjg59:  That's nice to hear.. ;-)07:33
netzmeisterdo you've any code example for me?07:33
mjg59No07:33
netzmeister:-(07:33
mjg59You can just use inb and outb07:34
netzmeisterokay07:35
netzmeisteryes it works..07:36
netzmeisteri convert a "userland" source in a kernel module source..07:36
netzmeisteri do not need the ioperm function..07:36
netzmeister'/* ioperm......    */ and all is fine. ;)07:37
netzmeistermjg59:  Are you there?09:33
mjg59netzmeister: Hi09:34
netzmeisterhi09:34
netzmeisterone question..09:34
netzmeisteri have two source files..09:34
netzmeisterone.c  and   two.c09:34
netzmeisterin one.c i use some functions which are in two.c09:35
netzmeisterbut i don't know how i should create the makefile09:35
netzmeister(i will create a kernel module)09:35
mjg59netzmeister: If it's a kernel module, you need to look at the makefiles in the kernel09:35
mjg59The only supported way of producing kernel modules is to use the kernel build system now09:36
mjg59(Even if you're building outside the kernel)09:36
netzmeisterkernel build system?09:37
