Initially I had left it out because it didn't apply, and I was hoping it would get upstream [06:19] BenC: Ok. It's kind of critical. [06:20] I can't remember what the upstream situation was. I'll track that down and repush. [06:22] BenC: Do you have a list of *all* the patches that were in feisty but haven't been applied to gutsy? I've asked this before and you gave me some, but that wasn't one of them. I'm uncomfortable not knowing what else has been dropped. [06:23] everyrthing from libata was dropped [06:23] all the acpi stuff got in [06:23] pretty much libata was left alone [06:23] That's not the entire set of the kernel I touched [06:23] I did re-integrate the HPA patch though [06:24] mjg59: everything else is in there [06:24] BenC: It's just that you previously told me that everything else was in there, which is why I've been scratching my head over this regression on HPs for a couple of months [06:24] libata was such an ugly delta it was near impossible to strip things out [06:24] I'm happy to regenerate patches, but that's kind of hard if I don't know that they've been dropped :) [06:25] mjg59: unfortunately I deleted all the data I had from doing the feisty to gutsy merge :/ [06:25] that whole deal isn't going to happen after gutsy because of the way we've been able to rebase the tree and keep it cleaner [06:26] BenC: That makes life... awkward. [06:26] mjg59: I can take some time this weekend to go over the feisty patches and check against gutsy [06:26] Ok, that would be helpful [06:26] but I'm pretty sure that libata was the only thing that got screwed on the merge for gutsy [06:28] The GTM stuff /seems/ to be upstream now [06:28] But not in 22 [06:31] BenC: when are you planning to merge 2.6.22.5? [06:32] mjg59: ah, wonder if we can just cherry pick [06:32] will make gutsy+1 merge easier [06:32] rtg: should do it now while we still can [06:32] BenC: my thought exactly.

[06:41] nope doesnt look like it, its intertwinned with the interface [06:41] then we can't fix it :/ [06:42] thats what I thought [06:42] oh well :) [06:47] ill give an explanation and place it as wont fix [06:50] done [06:50] back to oops training [07:02] BenC: Ok, I have a patch [07:03] mjg59: [07:03] err, cool [07:03] BenC: Sent to kernel-team [07:03] I'm off to lunch in a bit [07:03] mjg59: thanks [07:05] \ [07:06] mjg59: How come you don't use your kernel.ubuntu.com account to produce a git commit? [07:07] Because I haven't got round to setting stuff up there yet [07:12] mjg59: cherry picking is a lot less work for me. [07:13] rtg: I couldn't just pull this from upstream, because that would have introduced dependencies on various changes to libata-core that we don't want [07:14] mjg59: I know that. But cherry picking the final commit from your Gutsy tree is trivial.
