| mdz | what does the "PIIX3...enabling passive release" message mean which comes up in KVM? | 09:09 |
| soren | mdz: It means that the bios in kvm fails to enable passive release for the piix3 pci bridge, and the kernel fixes this. | 09:23 |
| soren | I don't think it should be a KERN_ERR thing. | 09:24 |
| soren | Seems I'm not alone: http://lkml.org/lkml/2008/8/8/198 | 09:26 |
| soren | mdz: Oh, or are you asking what passive release is? | 09:27 |
| mdz | soren: no, you answered my question, thanks | 09:31 |
| soren | mdz: Any time. | 09:31 |
| ivoks | umm... we have a serious regression in intrepid's kernel | 11:09 |
| ivoks | drbd isn't functional - while the drbd works on linus's kernel, it doesn't on ubuntu's, even tough it's the same patch/module | 11:10 |
| ivoks | could someone assist me in detecting where is the bug? | 11:12 |
| laga | i think that's a known issue | 11:17 |
| laga | check the meeting minutes of the server team | 11:17 |
| ivoks | thanks | 11:18 |
| ivoks | laga: can't find anything... do you recall which meeting that was? | 11:36 |
| laga | doh. it references your nick name... | 11:41 |
| laga | http://ubuntuserver.wordpress.com/2008/09/30/server-team-20080930-meeting-minutes/ | 11:41 |
| ivoks | eh... :) | 11:42 |
| ivoks | bottom line: drbd 8.2.7~rc1 works with vanilla kernel and doesn't with ubuntu's latest git | 11:43 |
| laga | and vanilla kernel is the latest 2.6.27 RC? | 11:43 |
| ivoks | no, rc7 | 11:43 |
| ivoks | the same one which is base for ubuntu's kernel | 11:44 |
| laga | ah, okay | 11:44 |
| laga | my usual answer to such problems is git-bisect, but maybe one of the kernel developers already has an idea what's going on | 11:44 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: kernel config differences/ | 11:45 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ? | 11:45 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: i used ubuntu servers config for vanilla | 11:45 |
| ivoks | there are differences, cause vanilla doesn't have all that stuff ubuntu has | 11:46 |
| IntuitiveNipple | The Kconfig looks pretty straightforward | 11:49 |
| paran | anybody know (or can guess) when the ubuntu kernel will be rebased against -rc8? I have a machine that needs a fix from there :) | 11:49 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: everything looks fine | 11:49 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: it just doesn't work - i have a strace output from userland tools | 11:49 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: Is the module loading and not working - any log clues? | 11:49 |
| ivoks | module is loading, but when userspace want's to connect to it, it can't | 11:50 |
| ivoks | but cn is loaded | 11:50 |
| ivoks | :q | 11:51 |
| ivoks | ups :) | 11:51 |
| ivoks | i could upload strace output if that could help | 11:54 |
| ivoks | with ubuntu kernel, userspace tool timeouts (strace show that it reads eth0 and never finishes) | 11:55 |
| ivoks | while on the vanilla kernel, same tool works (strace shows on that same point read(5, "Unconfigured\n", 4096) ) | 11:56 |
| amitk_ | paran: it has already been rebased against -rc8. Upload will probably happen on Monday. | 11:59 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: is it normal to have something like 'ESPIPE (Illegal seek)'? :) | 12:00 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: I've not seen that much so, no, I doubt it. | 12:01 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: Is it using a single ethernet port, or the bonding driver? | 12:01 |
| ivoks | single | 12:02 |
| paran | amitk_: sounds great, thanks. | 12:02 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: if you are interested in problem, i could provide you access to machine (both i386 and amd64) with full setup | 12:03 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: I doubt I know enough of the specifics to be of any help | 12:07 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: ok, thanks for assisting | 12:07 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: Is the *only* difference between the working and non-working configuration, the kernel the system boots with? | 12:08 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: yes | 12:09 |
| ivoks | IntuitiveNipple: i don't think that ESPIPE is problem, since seeking socket isn't possible at all :) | 12:11 |
| IntuitiveNipple | ivoks: possibly a symptom of the root cause | 12:12 |
| ivoks | could be... | 12:13 |
| ivoks | i've asked drbd devs, so i'm waiting for an answer | 12:13 |
| Wellark^ | hi! any change getting the HSO driver to ship with intrepid? http://tinyurl.com/4jynn6 | 13:56 |
| Wellark^ | there are many option 3g devices that need this driver | 13:56 |
| Wellark^ | and it's actively developed | 13:57 |
| Wellark^ | I honestly thought it was included in vanilla 2.6.27, but obviously it's not | 13:59 |
| amitk_ | Wellark^: hso is already merged into the mainline kernel in 2.6.26, so we carry it already. Is the pharscape driver a different version? | 13:59 |
| amitk_ | see drivers/net/usb/hso.c | 13:59 |
| Wellark^ | hmm.. didn't spot that in gitweb.. | 14:00 |
| amitk_ | Wellark^: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ubuntu/ubuntu-intrepid.git;a=tree;f=drivers/net/usb;h=704c3d6c5ecce21316f65a33d802a1ce54ed6b8a;hb=HEAD | 14:01 |
| Wellark^ | ah, ok. I checked drivers/usb/serial where option.c is :) | 14:02 |
| Wellark^ | hmm.. option forum states that 1.6 is the latest.. intrepid kernel has 1.2.. | 14:03 |
| rtg | BenC: can you think of a good reason _not_ to go with upstream e1000e? I've just pulled the NVM protection patch from Linus, so I'm thinking about dropping the SourceForge version of e1000e. | 14:12 |
| BenC | rtg: none that I'm aware of...what does Intel say about it? | 14:13 |
| BenC | do they have any requirements for us to use the sf one? | 14:13 |
| rtg | BenC: it seems upstream is where all of their development effort has gone lately. I'm wondering why they have a duplicate project in the first place. | 14:13 |
| rtg | BenC: I'm not aware of any requirements from Intel. | 14:14 |
| rtg | BenC: I think I'll just swizzle the configs for now and see if anyone squawks. | 14:15 |
| BenC | rtg: ok | 14:16 |
| rtg | BenC: I'm alos gonna upload -rc8 plus that one e1000e patch. | 14:17 |
| BenC | rtg: ok | 14:21 |
| rtg | BenC: is there a trick to setting these tags after a rebase so that the next time you 'insertchanges' you don't get all of the UBUNTU history repeated? | 14:23 |
| amitk_ | rtg: debian/scripts/misc/retag | 14:25 |
| BenC | rtg: ./debian/scripts/misc/retag | 14:26 |
| rtg | huh | 14:26 |
| BenC | fairly new script | 14:27 |
| rtg | I was just gonna ask when that little tidbit appeared :) | 14:27 |

| CarlFK | ibex 2.6.27-3-generic clonezilla output "Try to turn on the harddisk "/dev/sda" DMA... HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device" | 18:07 |
| CarlFK | what command is it probably running? | 18:08 |
| mjg59 | hdparm | 18:13 |
| CarlFK | # hdparm -d /dev/sda " HDIO_GET_DMA failed: Inappropriate ioctl for device" | 18:24 |
| CarlFK | is this a problem? | 18:24 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, No, just a result from moving to lib(s)ata. IIRC this automatically wants to set the right dma mode | 18:29 |
| CarlFK | thanks. I'll pass that on to clonezilla | 18:30 |
| cobradevil | can someone help me out ? | 18:31 |
| cobradevil | i have some strange feelings about virtualization | 18:31 |
| cobradevil | what will ubuntu be supporting with the intro of intrepid? | 18:32 |
| cobradevil | i'm using xen but i read at a few places intrepid will only support xen domu? | 18:33 |
| cobradevil | can someone confirm that? | 18:36 |
| CarlFK | [ 10.725634] ata1.00: limited to UDMA/33 due to 40-wire cable | 19:12 |
| CarlFK | it's an 80 | 19:12 |
| CarlFK | who's problem? | 19:12 |
| cobradevil | you could try a knoppix cd | 19:18 |
| cobradevil | see if thats giving the same output? | 19:18 |
| cobradevil | it could be a hardware problem? | 19:18 |
| cobradevil | what does the bios say | 19:19 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, It's from libata-core, which kernel version? | 19:19 |
| CarlFK | Linux dhcp91 2.6.27-3-generic #1 SMP Wed Sep 10 16:02:00 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux | 19:19 |
| CarlFK | I was about to install daily u-server, so should have -4 in about 30 min | 19:20 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, Doesn't look to me like there was much activity in that area since then... | 19:24 |
| CarlFK | cobradevil: bios - hardly says anything - I am lucky to see a model number | 19:27 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, From cable_is_40wire() in drivers/ata/libata-core.c it looks either the controller thinks it is 40wires or it doesn't know and none of the drives on that controller can tell... | 19:30 |
| CarlFK | smb_tp: might be older drives - 40 and 80 gig | 19:30 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, There is some description to force cable type in Documentation/kernel-parameters libata-force.. Maybe that could help | 19:34 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, libata.force= (to be correct) | 19:34 |
| CarlFK | ill give it a shot and see what happens | 19:34 |
| CarlFK | thanks | 19:34 |

| asac | rtg: http://launchpadlibrarian.net/17919677/syslog (from bug 273633) ... any ideas? what does "disassociating by local choice" means? | 23:19 |
| asac | rtg: also this guy has a bogus ethernet driver (eth0: driver is 'NULL(info.linux.driver)'. | 23:20 |
| asac | this means that hal didnt provide any driver name (i added that NULL (info...) thing as a hack at some point for broadcom wireless) | 23:21 |
| smb_tp | CarlFK, Hm, since the libata code did change, maybe it was the code for the controller. Well, it works now... | 23:44 |
