[01:32] <zul> hey
[01:34] <roh> uh
[03:13] <zul> sorry for patch bombing the ml there is a couple more
[03:17] <crimsun> I think I might take the prize for patch-bombing, so don't worry ;)
[03:17] <zul> only 8 patches ;)
[03:18] <crimsun> :)
[12:43] <Mithrandir> BenC: around?
[12:54] <Mithrandir> BenC: I have a jprobe which would be nice to have enabled in the kernel build.  Where should I put it?
[02:16] <zul> hey
[03:23] <BenC> Mithrandir: So you're going to send me a patch? :)
[03:24] <Mithrandir> BenC: sure.  I just want to agree on a place in the tree.
[03:24] <Mithrandir> rather than just making kprobes/ as a top level one right away. ;-)
[03:24] <BenC> what is jprobe?
[03:24] <Mithrandir> a kind of kprobe.
[03:24] <Mithrandir> which is the instrumentation framework.
[03:24] <BenC> is it invasive?
[03:25] <Mithrandir> http://www.redhat.com/magazine/005mar05/features/kprobes/ 
[03:25] <Mithrandir> the probe itself?  No, it's a < 100 line module.
[03:25] <Mithrandir> oh, sorry, I added the GPL boilerplate so it's 101 lines now. :-P
[03:26] <BenC> leave the GPL out
[03:26] <Mithrandir> it's not supposed to be in random .c files in the tree?
[03:26] <BenC> or do you mean the copyright at the top of the file?
[03:26] <Mithrandir> not the full GPL, just the "this is under the gpl, yatta, yatta"
[03:26] <BenC> ok
[03:27] <BenC> is it a single file?
[03:27] <Mithrandir> yes, plus a makefile
[03:27] <BenC> is it arch-indep?
[03:27] <Mithrandir> should be, unless I've fucked up.
[03:27] <BenC> ok, just add it under kernel/, and add the Makefile/Kconfig entries there
[03:28] <Mithrandir> ok, thanks.
[03:28] <BenC> insert the module in one commit
[03:28] <Mithrandir> I'll do that in a little bit, need to pop out to the store for a bit.
[03:28] <BenC> then run "debian/rules updateconfigs" and enable it everywhere, and make the next commit the config updates + changelog entry
[03:29] <BenC> thanks, just ping me for a pull when it's ready
[03:29] <BenC> and please do a single build (debian/rules binary-debs flavours=386) to make sure it's not causing any failures
[03:54] <Mithrandir> it'll probably be flavours=k8, but yeah.
[03:55] <zul> BenC: just wondering if you had a look at my patches
[03:56] <BenC> zul: Some of your mail headers are dupes and mismatched to the patch, but the attachments are all good :)
[03:56] <BenC> Mithrandir: then =amd64-k8 :)
[03:57] <zul> BenC: heh...i think i was doing several things at once
[03:57] <BenC> zul: Are these all dapper or edgy?
[03:57] <zul> i think they can be both..
[03:57] <BenC> ok, if I put them in dapper, they will get into edgy as well
[03:57] <zul> ok
[03:57] <BenC> thanks
[03:58] <BenC> I'll ping you when they are in git so you can mark all the bugs "fix committed"
[03:58] <zul> im mostly concentrating on dapper recently
[03:58] <zul> ok
[05:03] <zul> hey jeff
[05:03] <jbailey> Heya chuck
[05:04] <zul> how goes the battle?
[05:07] <jbailey> I'm not sure who's winning.
[05:07] <jbailey> DAYLIGHT COME AND ME WANT TO GO HOME!
[05:09] <ajmitch> heh
[05:09] <ajmitch> hello jeff
[05:10] <jbailey> hi Andrew
[05:31] <BenC> zul: you need to set some env vars so your commit's look right
[05:31] <BenC> GIT_AUTHOR_NAME=Ben Collins
[05:31] <BenC> GIT_COMMITTER_NAME=Ben Collins
[05:31] <BenC> GIT_COMMITTER_EMAIL=bcollins@ubuntu.com
[05:31] <BenC> GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL=bcollins@ubuntu.com
[05:31] <BenC> like that
[05:34] <BenC> crimsun,zul: Latest patches are in git now
[05:35] <BenC> thanks
[05:35] <zul> thanks
[05:36] <zul> ah...suckage
[07:13] <infinity> BenC: You suck at LRM. :P
[07:14] <infinity> BenC: http://librarian.launchpad.net/3184793/buildlog_ubuntu-edgy-i386.linux-restricted-modules-2.6.17_2.6.17.1-1_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz
[07:14] <BenC> bah, LRM sucks on me :P
[07:15] <BenC> wtf is that bullshit
[07:15] <BenC> BFD: debian/nvidia-glx/usr/lib/stekNdpL: warning: allocated section `.bss' not in segment
[07:15] <BenC> BFD: debian/nvidia-glx/usr/lib/tls/st2EQALJ: The first section in the PT_DYNAMIC segment is not the .dynamic section
[07:16] <BenC> I blame the buildd for that...worked fine on my system :)
[07:18] <infinity> BenC: Did you use binutils 2.17, or the older one?
[07:18] <infinity> BenC: Could be new breakage.
[07:19] <BenC> let me check
[07:20] <BenC> ii  binutils            2.16.1cvs20060117-1 The GNU assembler, linker and binary utilities
[07:20] <BenC> ii  gcc-4.1             4.1.1-2ubuntu3      The GNU C compiler
[07:20] <BenC> I'll upgrade and see if I can reproduce it
[07:39] <BenC> wow, things are totally bombing on me now
[07:39] <BenC> I can't even get as far as the buildd did
[07:41] <BenC> pwd: couldn't find directory entry in `../../../../../../../..' with matching i-node
[07:41] <BenC> pwd: couldn't find directory entry in `../../../../../../../..' with matching i-node
[07:41] <BenC> that looks like something else entirely
[08:18] <BenC> infinity: it is a binutils bug...elmo confirmed a debian bug report about nvidia pre-built libs and 2.17 binutils/strip
[08:18] <BenC> infinity: I'm doing a -2 that -X's the problematic stuff for dh_strip
