BenCfabbione: ok, I'll pull again04:59
fabbioneBenC: great thanks05:00
fabbioneBenC: i also have some issues about ioctl3205:00
fabbionei am testing a patch right now, but i need you to review it05:00
fabbionei think you are familiar with that problem since you use ioctl32 compat stuff in firewire too05:00
BenCyeah, ioctl32 is pretty sticky stuff05:06
fabbioneBenC: well the point is that the entire redhat-cluster-suite seems to require that kind of love05:07
fabbionei did try to stub them05:07
fabbionesome of them seems to work05:07
fabbioneother don't05:07
BenCguessing some of them need real conversions05:07
fabbioneexample:05:09
fabbione#define SIOCCLUSTER_ISACTIVE          _IO( 'x', 0x0b)05:09
fabbioneHANDLE_IOCTL(SIOCCLUSTER_ISACTIVE, do_cluster_ioctl)05:10
fabbionestatic int do_cluster_ioctl(unsigned int fd, unsigned int cmd, unsigned long arg)05:10
fabbione{05:10
fabbione        return sys_ioctl(fd, cmd, (unsigned long)compat_ptr(arg));05:10
fabbione}05:10
fabbionethis one seems to work just fine05:10
fabbione#define SIOCCLUSTER_SET_NODENAME      _IOW('x', 0x0b1, char *)05:10
fabbioneHANDLE_IOCTL(SIOCCLUSTER_SET_NODENAME, do_cluster_ioctl)05:11
fabbionethis one gives me:05:11
fabbioneioctl32(cman_tool:5880): Unknown cmd fd(3) cmd(800478b1){00} arg(ff8f37d8) on socket:[11451]    05:11
fabbionebut the cmd is there..05:11
fabbioneso i am a bit puzzled05:11
fabbioneBenC: http://people.ubuntu.com/~fabbione/cluster-ioctl32.diff this is what i have now05:13
BenCare you sure oxb1 is right?05:13
BenC0x0b1 I mean05:13
BenCwell, I guess 0x0b1 was already in the code05:14
fabbionei include directly cluster/cnxcman-socket.h05:14
fabbioneso i yes05:14
fabbioneso i think they are correct :)05:14
fabbionegiven they work on all other arches :)05:14
fabbioneit's only sparc64 suffering of this problem05:14
fabbioneafair not even hppa was complaining05:15
fabbionebut i might be wrong05:15
fabbionei need to go out for about 30 minutes05:15
BenCI think I know why05:15
BenCit's the char *05:15
fabbioneif you can give it a look or a fix, i will test it when i am back05:15
fabbioneok i will read when i am back :)05:16
fabbionethanks Ben05:16
BenCyou  may want to handle this differently05:17
BenCis this operating on a device file with file_ops?05:17
fabbioneBenC: code here is cluster/* and fs/gfs*05:18
fabbionei am not sure how i want to operate...05:19
fabbionepersonally i don't even care... it needs to work :)05:19
BenCyeah, it is05:19
BenClook in cluster/cman/cnxman.c05:19
BenCand then follow what was done in drivers/ieee1394/dv1394.c05:19
fabbionei really need to go05:19
fabbionei will look at it later05:19
BenCthe compat_ioctl entry 05:19
BenCok05:19
BenCI think I did the same for one of the acpi drivers05:19
fabbionenote that these are socket operation05:19
fabbione+s05:19
fabbionethere are also files_ops05:20
BenCyeah, the file ops should handle it I believe05:20

=== cjb wonders what the chances of the Yi Yang fs events connector patch getting into dapper+1 are.
fabbionere05:44
fabbioneso BenC you suggest to remove that patch and go for what's in dv1394.c?05:45
BenCyeah05:45
fabbionei can try..05:47
fabbionebut see. there is no file_operations there05:48
=== fabbione scratches his head
fabbionestatic struct proto_ops cl_proto_ops = {05:50
fabbione        .ioctl       = cl_ioctl,05:51
fabbione}05:51
fabbionecl_ioctl is the func that knows what userland is calling05:51
fabbioneuserland is in redhat-cluster-suite source cman/cman_tools/join.c05:51
fabbione    error = ioctl(cluster_sock, SIOCCLUSTER_ISACTIVE);05:51
fabbioneit's like SIOCCLUSTER_ISACTIVE is not exported to 32bit userland05:52
fabbionebut proto_ops doesn't have .compat_ioctl05:52
fabbione(from include/...)05:52
BenChmm06:06
BenCI'd have to take a closer look then06:07
fabbioneBenC: yeah.. i can't get in it06:42
fabbioneno more than what i showed to you06:42
zul_wq06:46
zul_damn it06:46
=== fabbione waves to zul
zul_hey fabbione how is it goinng?06:47
fabbioneokish06:47
zul_thats good..06:47
fabbionei just powered down the SAN06:47
fabbionei was getting almost stupid from the noise06:47
zul_thats why you wear earphones when you work..06:47
zul_i went home for lunch..yippe skippe06:48
fabbioneit doesn't help06:57
fabbionenot when a 19" x 6ft racks is completely powered on 3 feet behind you06:58
zul_meh...you need your own data center06:59
fabbionedid you see the last evolution in my office?06:59
fabbionethe desktop extender?06:59
zul_nope i havent06:59

zul_lol...my wife would kill me07:00
fabbionemy wife did look at it for 10 seconds in religious silence...07:01
fabbionethen i looked her and told her: "Why i am so sure you don't like it?"07:01
fabbioneshe answered: "If it wasn't for the fact that all this junk bring us food, i would have never married you"07:01
fabbioneso to say, she didn't like it07:02
zul_lol07:02
fabbioneanyway.. food time07:03
