_StefanS_hi there11:30
_StefanS_BenC: ping?11:30
_StefanS_BenC: would you consider adding the port multiplier patches to the current 2.6.22 kernel? They greatly improve the experience with controllers that take advantage of multiple sata devices on one cable. I've been testing the patch(es) for Tejun Heo.11:33
BenC_StefanS_: not likely11:33
_StefanS_BenC: I know he's submitted them to inclusion in 2.6.2311:34
_StefanS_BenC: but it would be rather cool to have that support, given that many installation might be using cheap sata arrays11:34
BenC_StefanS_: then we'll get it for gutsy+111:34
_StefanS_BenC: yes I know..11:34
_StefanS_BenC: but would be great to have it now :D11:34
BenC_StefanS_: But we have to take the chance that it may break things considering it hasn't gotten upstream testing :)11:35
_StefanS_BenC: well, yes..11:35
_StefanS_BenC: I find it very stable, but ofcourse the stuff requires some wider testing i imagine... atleast I tried :D11:36
BenC_StefanS_: np, I love to hear about stuff like this, and if it was the case of adding a "we have to have this" type feature, then maybe, but otherwise we tend to stick with stable code11:36
_StefanS_BenC: for me I see it as a competitive advantage, since more and more people are moving away from usb devices, and on to eSata. The current libata in stock 2.6.22 isn't really working with that.11:37
_StefanS_BenC: (for multiple devices I mean)11:37
BenCisn't working, or just isn't performing well?11:38
_StefanS_BenC: port multiplier is there, but doesn't recognize more than one disk on the cable. I guess the performance is about the same with or without the patches11:38
_StefanS_BenC: I imagine it was a cool feature just out of the box on ubuntu server for instance11:39
BenC_StefanS_: hmm, slightly different than I understood...can you send the patch to kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com for review?11:39
_StefanS_BenC: sure11:39
=== fabbione [i=fabbione@nat/canonical/x-de0db4acb3c2dc72] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
_StefanS_BenC: there you go.11:44
BenC_StefanS_: thanks11:44
_StefanS_BenC: my email is waiting approval before entering the list, just so you know it11:47
BenC_StefanS_: ah, ok11:47
_StefanS_BenC: yea, I wasn't subscribing to it ;)11:48
BenCit's very low volume, if you're interested :)11:48
_StefanS_BenC: well yes, I could probably push for stuff earlier in the process hehe11:48
_StefanS_BenC: there's a little thing with ipr.c and ipr.h when compiling with the patch applied, but tejun is going to fix that very soon. He's planning to release a patchset for the final 2.6.22 kernel soon11:52

jbaileyHeya!  I notice that -8.15 has been uploaded without the hppa ftbfs fix that I sent to malone over a week ago.03:35
jbaileyIs there something more I should do to make sure that ports patches go in?03:38
jbaileyhttps://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.22/+bug/12317803:38
zuljbailey: i guess it was overlooked might want to ping amitk 03:38
jbaileyRight, but I'm wondering if there's something I should do to keep it from getting overlooked.03:38
zulsend the patch directly to the kernel-team mailing list03:38
jbaileyThe ports stuff is always going to be weird, since it's targets that the kernel team isn't expected to test.03:39
jbaileyYou mean as well as posting the bug?  Won't that just mean more noise, and then in a place where it can't be tracked?03:40
zulgood point..03:41
lamontI think I might have git-tree abilities these days, I should check on that once BenC is bored.03:42
jbaileyThat would be nice.03:43
jbaileyThen I'll just bug you. =)03:43
=== IanC26 [n=IanC26@2002:908b:a562:4:216:6fff:fe39:ff6e] has joined #ubuntu-kernel
amitkjbailey: I had (still don't) no knowdlege of these changes. I will talk to kylem and try to put it into the next upload03:52
jbaileyamitk: kylem is not involved with the Ubuntu hppa port.03:52
amitkjbailey: then who is?03:53
jbaileyLaMont and I.03:53
jbaileykyle's doing upstream hppa kernel stuff, so he's still a reasonable person to ping for these, but IIRC he prefers to stay away from it in Ubuntu to avoid any work/non-work confusion around it.03:54
jbaileyamitk: But in general, if filing a bug isn't the best way to make sure the kernel team sees a patch, what is?03:54
amitkjbailey: Besides filing a bug, it definitely helps sending email + patch to kernel-team ML. Someone is then bound to review and ack the patch03:56
jbaileyOkay.  Doesn't filing a bug automatically email everyone, though?03:57
jbaileyI would've thought that redundant.03:57
amitkjbailey: I currently have 1046 emails from bugs.launchpad.net in my mailbox. A majority of these aren't triaged yet. We do try to go over bugs that have a patch attached, but sometimes we might miss one.03:59
amitkjbailey: kernel-team ML is directed towards any patches that we are seriously proposing to incorporate into the next release03:59
jbailey'kay.  Is there a launchpad account I can just subscribe to it, or should I just sent the same email to the mailing list?04:00
jbaileyI'd prefer not to be subscribed to yet another mailing list that goes into an unread folder.04:01
