| BenC | wow, I had no idea how much space the debian/abi directory was taking up | 05:54 |
| BenC | # du -sh debian/abi | 05:55 |
| BenC | 119M debian/abi | 05:55 |
| zul | oi | 05:55 |
| BenC | and there it's done | 05:57 |
| zul | yay... | 05:58 |
| zul | now you can go play poker in theory | 05:58 |

| bluefoxicy | BenC: what does abi do? | 06:00 |
| BenC | abi is the kernel compatibility | 06:01 |
| maks | abi does not exist ;) | 06:01 |
| BenC | if the ABI changes, then modules compiled against it (like LRM) have to be recompiled | 06:01 |
| BenC | if the ABI doesn't change, then all modules should still work | 06:01 |
| BenC | maks: no, there's no _stable_ abi, but there is an abi :) | 06:02 |
| maks | BenC: catched ;) | 06:02 |
| fabbione | BenC: congrats boy | 06:06 |
| fabbione | BenC: time to fork ubuntu-dapper-2.6 and start ubuntu-2.6 for edgy? ;) | 06:07 |
| BenC | fabbione: don't forget everyone that helped, like you :) | 06:07 |
| fabbione | i didn't do much come on | 06:07 |
| BenC | yep, that's my unofficial Friday excercise | 06:07 |

| fabbione | BenC: once you open edgy can you please merge gfs2 from kernel.org? | 06:07 |
| BenC | gfs2 git tree? | 06:08 |
| fabbione | i want an early start for the cluster stuff since it will change a lot | 06:08 |
| fabbione | yes | 06:08 |
| fabbione | we will be able to kill cman from the kernel | 06:09 |
| fabbione | it's all userland now | 06:09 |
| fabbione | otherwise i can prepare a commit that will revert all the cluster bits from GFS1 | 06:09 |
| fabbione | and we can merge gfs2 later | 06:10 |
| zul | BenC, then you can show me some stuff later | 06:14 |
| BenC | zul: sure thing | 06:26 |

| BenC | setuid: if you just want to build stock kernels for Ubuntu, without initrd, just do a normal kernel build, install, modules-install | 08:28 |
| BenC | and edit /boot/grub/menu.lst to reflect the lack of initrd | 08:28 |
| setuid | Of course, but I need the new kernel to represent the same level of functionality as the running Ubuntu kernels, so if that's as simple as dropping in a .config from /boot, I'm golden. I remember running into all kinds of weirdness with this approach about 2 months ago. | 08:29 |
| BenC | Probably just adding a custom entry to grub's menu for your kernel would suffice (and keep you from messing up anything specific to Ubuntu's stuff) | 08:29 |
| setuid | I'll give it a go again, maybe bugs were fixed. | 08:29 |
| setuid | Naturally | 08:29 |
| BenC | copy the config | 08:29 |
| BenC | but without an initrd, you will need to change some drivers to be built-in (storage drivers, and filesystem drivers) | 08:29 |
| BenC | if you want to build the proper way "make-kpkg --initrd --rootcmd fakeroot kernel_image" | 08:31 |
| BenC | setuid: I have one question, if you don't like the way that Ubuntu's kernel images are working (the boot process, initrd, etc.), why are you using Ubuntu for testing of these drivers? | 08:33 |
| setuid | BenC: Trying to model the environment with newer kernels for our users (I'm the maintainer of pilot-link, which projects like Evolution, gnome-pilot, J-Pilot, KPilot, PilotManager and several commercial projects rely upon) | 08:38 |
| setuid | So we get reports of bugs, and I need to identify if they're due to kernel patches, or kernel bugs. | 08:38 |
| setuid | Then flet out from there | 08:38 |
| setuid | Fedora is the worst offender, I'm afraid to admit. | 08:38 |
| setuid | 9 times out of 10, going to a non-Fedora kernel solves a truckload of users problems with sync | 08:39 |
| setuid | make silentoldconfig doesn't seem to work with the most-recent 6 2.6.16 kernels | 08:43 |
| setuid | I'll keep going back | 08:43 |
| desrt | silentoldconfig is only a good idea if you're actually using the same kernel version as the config was generated for | 08:44 |
| desrt | since otherwise there will be deltas in the available options and you probably want to use 'oldconfig' | 08:44 |
| setuid | Or close enough, but yes. | 08:44 |
| setuid | I'll mrproper and restart | 08:44 |
| setuid | I wish mconfig supported 2.6 | 08:44 |
| desrt | does 2.7 exist yet? | 08:48 |
| setuid | Some work in git | 08:50 |
| setuid | iirc | 08:50 |

| setuid | Ok, that didn't work (blew up in initrd, as I suspected) | 10:29 |
| setuid | Why does mkinitrd make a cramfs initrd, instead of a standard compressed cpio image? | 10:29 |
| setuid | I've taken a vanilla 2.6.16.16 kernel and copied my Ubuntu's 2.6.15-22 .config into the tree, did make-kpkg kernel-image, it built the kernel + modules... but initrd fails. | 10:30 |
| mjg59_ | Because it's mkinitrd, not mkinitramfs | 10:30 |
| setuid | So I need to use mkinitramfs? | 10:30 |
| setuid | But the resulting line in grub's config is for an initrd? How... confusing. ;) | 10:31 |
| mjg59_ | The filename is still initrd for compatibility reasons | 10:31 |
| mjg59_ | It's loaded in the same way | 10:31 |
