| BenC | jbailey: hey, are you sure your G5 hangs, or does it drop to busy box after 3 minutes? | 12:19 |
|---|---|---|
| BenC | jbailey: No way to pull from Linus's tree now, he's on to 2.6.18 | 12:20 |
| crimsun | we may have a fix for bug 34831; just waiting for more feedback before pushing | 12:23 |
| BenC | excellent | 12:30 |
| BenC | zul: ping | 12:30 |
| BenC | crimsun: I'm assuming that any patches I get from you for dapper sound can be merged into edgy now? | 12:31 |
| crimsun | BenC: yes, with the caveat that since I target dapper, there may be some backported typedefs, etc. I can attach a note for Edgy to each dapper patch if you'd like. | 12:32 |
| BenC | yeah, that'd be nice | 12:33 |
| crimsun | all right, will do. | 12:33 |
| BenC | zul, crimsun: all patches from you guys are in dapper, will pull to edgy soon | 12:39 |

| Keybuk | zul: ping | 01:32 |
| zul | Keybuk: pong | 02:01 |
| Keybuk | zul: you did an upload of kernel-package today | 02:02 |
| Keybuk | but didn't take the opportunity to merge it | 02:02 |
| Keybuk | do you want to do that? | 02:02 |
| zul | yes i did.. | 02:02 |
| zul | i only added the xen stuff i dont know what will break in edgy if i merge it | 02:02 |
| zul | i think that might be up to benC | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | ok, I ask because now you've uploaded, you've cleared the "outstanding merge" flag :p | 02:03 |
| Keybuk | and you've put your name against it for nagging | 02:04 |
| zul | meh... | 02:04 |
| zul | ill take a crack at it after i do the kernel security stuff on my todo list | 02:04 |
| crimsun | Keybuk: question about effects of Edgy's udev if you have a few moments | 02:06 |
| Keybuk | crimsun: sure | 02:10 |
| crimsun | Keybuk: I'm looking at the Edgy alsa-utils merge, and there's a udev rule from Debian Sid, "KERNEL=="controlC[0-7] ", ACTION=="add", RUN+="/lib/udev/alsa-utils". Do you prefer the older (Dapper's) [..] RUN+="/sbin/start-stop-daemon --start --background --pidfile /var/run/alsa/bogus --startas /etc/init.d/alsa-utils -- start %n"? The question is whether /lib/udev/ is the Right place to have alsa-utils versus /etc/init.d/ . | 02:10 |
| Keybuk | so I prefer the Debian way of having it in /lib/udev | 02:10 |
| Keybuk | though that rule should be fixed to just RUN+="alsa-utils" | 02:11 |
| Keybuk | there's a potential bug though ... does alsa-utils still use stuff in /usr ? | 02:11 |
| crimsun | not that I can see. | 02:12 |
| Keybuk | ok, then go with the Debian stuff | 02:13 |
| crimsun | all right, and thanks for your time. | 02:13 |

| BenC | zul, Keybuk: I'll do kernel-package merging | 02:37 |
| BenC | it's a hell of a lot of work, because we have some special cases that need to be handled (auto run of boot loaders, update-initramfs, etc) | 02:37 |

| Keybuk | BenC: ? ^ | 03:34 |
| BenC | Keybuk: there's no way to blacklist it and have sata_piix work | 03:41 |
| BenC | ata_piix handles both pata and sata in Alan's patched up stuff | 03:41 |
| BenC | it broked my ia64 | 03:42 |
| BenC | probably break others as well | 03:42 |
| Keybuk | ah, I see | 03:54 |
| Keybuk | by "broke" I assume you mean the migration stuff wasn't in place | 03:55 |
| Keybuk | rather than flat-out-didn't-work? | 03:55 |
| BenC | that would have been the case, but the reality was the pata part crashed on boot | 04:14 |

| zul | frig...sorry | 04:26 |

| jbailey | BenC: 'kay. I'll try and twiddle that change so that it applies against our tree and send it to you. | 03:37 |
| jbailey | BenC: I'm not sure if it'll drop to busybox or not. yaboot sucks enough that I haven't thought to remove 'splash' from the bootup so I can see what's going on. | 03:37 |
| makx | BenC: concerning kernel-package you could use mkinitramfs-kpkg too | 04:04 |
| makx | it's the default in Debian and does basically the same than update-initramfs -c -k <kernelversion> but with old style compat mkinitrd calling option.. | 04:05 |
| makx | although that would need an initramfs-tools merge first *hint* | 04:05 |
| makx | and there you have special cases as we don't do the fb stuff right now | 04:05 |
| jbailey | makx: Adam's most likely to do the initramfs-tools merge, and he's not around this week. | 04:09 |
| BenC | jbailey: If it drops to busybox, usplash will disappear...you have to give it like 3-5 minutes though | 04:33 |
| BenC | jbailey: does your G5 use sata_svw for the rootfs? | 04:34 |
| jbailey | BenC: Is there any easy way to get a /proc/mounts to /proc/modules mapping? =) | 04:35 |
| BenC | wish there was | 04:44 |
| BenC | lsmod | grep sata_ | 04:44 |
| BenC | if it's in the module list, then you are likely using it | 04:44 |
| jbailey | It's not. | 04:44 |

| === jbailey looks in syslog | ||
| BenC | it's weird on my G5, it hangs waiting for the rootfs, and finally drops to busy box after the timeout | 04:45 |
| BenC | it hasn't even tried to load sata_svw, and when I modprobe it from busybox shell, it just hangs further | 04:45 |

| fabbione | BenC: the overall was for thombot that's trying to test a patch for #37452 | 05:33 |
| fabbione | BenC: it seems pretty straightforward | 05:33 |
| fabbione | thom can probably test the fix for you | 05:33 |
| thom | i have ~15 4100s sat next to me that i'd quite like to use, so yeah | 05:34 |
| BenC | * edgy sparc Successfully built | 05:35 |
| BenC | fabbione: sparc builds again :) | 05:35 |
| fabbione | BenC: neat :) | 05:36 |
| BenC | fabbione: also, sparc is now included in the kernel daily builds | 05:36 |
| fabbione | ehhe | 05:37 |
| fabbione | faure? | 05:37 |
| fabbione | or some other fancy toys | 05:37 |
| thom | BenC: the interesting patch is http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux-2.6.git;a=commit;h=816aa907b909177bdf6e6e6b0d00c5e5a6e2be8c FWIW | 05:38 |
| fabbione | thom: i guess you need kernel and installer to test, right? | 05:39 |
| fabbione | thom: is a netboot image an acceptable solution? | 05:39 |
| fabbione | or do you need a cdrom based install? | 05:39 |
| thom | well, given an updated git tree i have the rest of the stuff i need to blow updated cds | 05:40 |
| fabbione | (at least to test) | 05:40 |
| fabbione | oh it's because it's easier for me to build you a netboot image :) | 05:40 |
| thom | i have lots of idle cpu cycles round here that i can happily use | 05:40 |
| BenC | thom: if it works, shoot me an email and I'll pull that into dapper's next upload | 05:41 |
| BenC | which will likely be very soon | 05:42 |
| fabbione | BenC: he needs a git tree :) | 05:42 |
| BenC | shit, I can probably build you a kernel with that patch very quickly :) | 05:43 |
| thom | BenC: i suspect it'll take me some hours to get my head round exactly which patches i need, so if you have any spare cycles to do a backport that'd be lovely :-) | 05:43 |
| thom | (that patch doesn't apply cleanly fwict) | 05:43 |
| fabbione | it's probably faster to backport the driver, but be aware that's the same on the T1000/T200 | 05:44 |
| fabbione | i won't be happy if it breaks :D | 05:44 |
| thom | fabbione: but presumably you have the same problem - that you can't use raid on the controller? | 05:47 |
| fabbione | thom: i wish i could tell you because the firmware doesn't allow you to setup raid yeet | 05:47 |
| fabbione | yet | 05:47 |
| thom | heh, ok | 05:47 |
| fabbione | but yes. it's supposed to support RAID | 05:47 |
| BenC | wow, there's been at least 20 commits against drivers/message/fusion/ since dapper | 05:47 |
| BenC | the diff against that directory is > 300k :/ | 05:48 |
| BenC | you may just be SOL | 05:50 |
| thom | ok, no worries if that's the case | 05:50 |
| BenC | if you can narrow down the patch you need to something more manageable, I'd take it for dapper | 05:51 |
| thom | sure, i'll give it a go | 05:51 |
| BenC | pointless for me to guess | 05:51 |
| fabbione | BenC: i guess looking at the commit above isn't enough | 05:51 |
| fabbione | tho it's pretty simple commit | 05:51 |
| BenC | not sure if it depends on any of the 20 other commits that came before it though | 05:52 |
| BenC | that's the guessing part :) | 05:52 |
| BenC | it should be easy to manually merge that code in | 05:52 |
| BenC | give it a whirl and see what happens | 05:52 |
| BenC | FYI, mutex_unlock() == up() in dapper | 05:53 |
| BenC | fuck it, let me just get you a working diff to build with | 05:53 |
| fabbione | go ben! | 05:54 |
| thom | BenC: cheers! | 05:56 |
| BenC | email? | 05:59 |
| thom | thom@ubuntu.com | 05:59 |
| BenC | this is a down and dirty simple merge, it's missing the topology locks (something that isn't present in dapper) so I'm a little leary about it actually working | 05:59 |

| === BenC [n=bcollins@debian/developer/bcollins] has joined #ubuntu-kernel | ||
| crimsun | Keybuk: yesterday you mentioned there may be a bug if /usr is still used, and having inspected the alsa-utils initscript, I see /usr/bin/amixer is called. Does this have anything to do with said bug? | 10:56 |
| Keybuk | yup | 10:57 |
| Keybuk | people with /usr on a separate partition wouldn't get their sound card initialised | 10:57 |
| Keybuk | which is why we have the evil start-stop-daemon while/sleep hack | 10:57 |
| crimsun | ok, so we'll still need that in udev.rules in addition to the sleep in the initscript | 10:58 |
| Keybuk | for now, yes | 11:09 |
| Keybuk | this may be fixable within edgy by using an upstart event instead | 11:10 |
| crimsun | ok, I'll read that spec after I finish this merge | 11:11 |
| crimsun | thanks | 11:11 |
| Keybuk | basically udev would trigger a "sound card found" event at that point | 11:11 |
| Keybuk | and we'd start the "restore alsa mixer levels" service | 11:11 |
| Keybuk | that service would define that it needs writable filesystems (/usr) to function | 11:12 |
| Keybuk | so would inherently wait for that to happen | 11:12 |
