| NCommander | apw, do you still need to forward the SPARC patches? (it hit the queue, but I didn't get the bounce until I took off for the weekend) | 02:32 |
|---|---|---|
| cooloney | ericm, Jaunty 2.6.28 kernel already merged that patch? | 06:12 |
| cooloney | ericm, do you know the SHA of the commit? | 06:12 |
| ericm | cooloney: please check arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel.c: line 39 | 06:12 |
| ericm | cooloney: seems to be merged via the stable tree | 06:13 |
| cooloney | ericm, that is OK | 06:13 |
| ericm | the change is brought up by the fix | 06:14 |
| cooloney | ericm, we can change the status to Fixed in Release | 06:14 |
| cooloney | ericm, cool | 06:14 |
| ericm | cooloney: now your turn ;-) | 06:14 |
| cooloney | ericm, ok, no problem. | 06:14 |
| cooloney | ericm, thanks for taking a look at this | 06:14 |

| apw | kdub, hi | 12:31 |
| * apw pokes apw_ | 12:39 | |
| smb | apw, talking to yourself again. :-P | 12:43 |
| * apw_ waves to cking | 12:43 | |
| apw | heh yeah ... just got wireless working | 12:43 |
| * Keybuk tries to figure out TRACE_EVENT | 13:43 | |
| rtg_ | amitk, are you accumulating all of the Karmic ARM patches from the list? | 14:08 |
| Keybuk | rtg_: remind me, is there an easy way to build an i386 kernel on an amd64? | 14:23 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, other then using a chroot? not that I know of. | 14:24 |
| Keybuk | that's what I thought | 14:24 |
| Keybuk | let's see if this works | 14:26 |
| Keybuk | I've rewritten the old sreadahead ftrace-based open() patch | 14:26 |
| Keybuk | it now uses TRACE_EVENT | 14:26 |
| Keybuk | I'm hoping it'll be much easier to get upstream like that ;-) | 14:26 |
| Keybuk | (assuming that the syscall tracer stuff doesn't make it) | 14:28 |
| Keybuk | ooh, it compiled :D | 14:30 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, is anyone championing the syscall tracer stuff ? | 14:31 |
| Keybuk | no idea | 14:32 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, couldn't get it in Andrew's tree? | 14:32 |
| Keybuk | who couldn't/ | 14:33 |
| * Keybuk doesn't follow LKML remember | 14:33 | |
| Keybuk | I only have 24 hours in one day | 14:33 |
| Keybuk | last I heard about the syscall tracer stuff, Ingo had said he though it was the right thing to do | 14:34 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, he's also another avenue for getting a patch like that accepted. | 14:35 |
| Keybuk | (the syscall tracer stuff not being my work :p) | 14:35 |
| rtg_ | oh, I thought it was. I get so confused. | 14:35 |
| Keybuk | :) | 14:36 |
| Keybuk | in jaunty we have a patch in our kernel tree which adds a trace for the open() syscall using ftrace | 14:36 |
| Keybuk | that patch doesn't apply in karmic, so I've rewritten it to use TRACE_EVENT | 14:36 |
| Keybuk | we'll obviously want to include that in our tree if it works | 14:36 |
| Keybuk | and I'll forward it upstream as well | 14:36 |
| rtg_ | ok | 14:37 |
| Keybuk | but I'm mindful that there's separate work upstream to provide a generic all-syscall tracer using tracepoints, which would supercede it anyway | 14:37 |
| rtg_ | its probably time to get it into Karmic 'cause whatever happens upstream won't appear (for us) until LL | 14:37 |
| Keybuk | but at least, by implementing it on top of trace_event, it'll be compatible :P | 14:37 |
| Keybuk | right, I only wrote it today :) | 14:38 |
| Keybuk | am doing the test compile now <g> | 14:38 |
| rtg_ | slacker | 14:38 |
| Keybuk | hah | 14:38 |
| Keybuk | hmm, didn't quite work | 14:41 |
| Keybuk | oh, no, I just didn't copy a file over | 14:44 |
| Keybuk | hmm, no I didn't | 14:49 |
| === pace_t_zulu_ is now known as pace_t_zulu | ||
| * Keybuk is clearly missing some glue | 14:55 | |
| Keybuk | how do I ignore ABI changes again? | 16:42 |
| Keybuk | oh, I just fix the changelog entry, that's right | 16:43 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, you can also 'echo 1 > debian/abi/2.6.31*/ignore' | 16:44 |
| rtg_ | rather, 'echo 1 > debian/abi/2.6.31*/ARCH/ignore' | 16:45 |
| Keybuk | btw, is it me or is the kernel package missing build-deps these days? | 16:47 |
| Keybuk | neither kernel-wedge nor makedumpfile are in its deps | 16:47 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, hmm | 16:48 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3), module-init-tools, kernel-wedge (>= 2.24ubuntu1), makedumpfile [amd64 i386 lpia], device-tree-compiler [powerpc] | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | rtg_: ah, but debian/control is an empty file | 16:50 |
| Keybuk | that's what breaks it | 16:51 |
| rtg_ | debian/rules clean | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | so deps work from the source but not from git? | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | rtg_: clean depends on kernel-wedge <g> | 16:51 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, debian/control is generated | 16:51 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, the source package has a correct debian/control, but not the bits that are checked out from git | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | yeah | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | Could not open /home/scott/co/linux-karmic/debian/linux-image-2.6.31-4-generic/lib/modules/2.6.31-4-generic/modules.alias at debian/tests/check-aliases line 10. | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | weird | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | probably an issue with changing the version part way though the build ;) | 16:53 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, likely. you're better off using an ignore file. | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | wildo | 16:56 |
| amitk | rtg_: I am (collecting all the ARM-related patches, that is). They are at git://kernel.ubuntu.com/amitk/ubuntu-fsl-2.6.31.git | 16:57 |
| rtg_ | amitk, shouldn't we have an official topic branch in the Karmic repo? | 17:01 |

| Keybuk | rtg_: incoming patch for you | 17:20 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, cool. | 17:20 |
| apw | jjohansen, did we decide that we were happy to enable apparmour now, as the ecryptfs issue was already in jaunty and the static IP addy thing there was going to be a work around in the definition | 17:55 |
| jjohansen | apw: nope, but I think it is worth doing | 17:56 |
| apw | i think it was a patch for that functonality wasn't it. we should get that up onto the mailing list for inclusion | 17:57 |
| jjohansen | apw: yeah, it adds a config option to set a default security module | 17:57 |
| apw | cool. so lets get that up soon and i can get it tested in my ppa | 17:58 |
| jjohansen | apw: okay, I will commit and push | 17:59 |
| apw | sounds good | 18:00 |

| jjohansen | apw: request sent | 18:37 |
| apw | jjohansen, thanks | 18:37 |
| rtg_ | apw, any erason why CONFIG_SSB and CONFIG_B44 shouldn't be common across all arches/flavours? | 18:43 |
| apw | probabally not ... shall i sort them out as i have been doing that merging? | 18:44 |
| apw | and i am about to do an AA config option too :) | 18:44 |
| rtg_ | apw, I've already got that committed locally and am build testing. | 18:44 |
| apw | ahh ok ... | 18:44 |
| rtg_ | the CONFIG_SSB/CONFIG_B44 patch (I mean) | 18:44 |
| apw | let me know when you have it pushed so i can work from the top of that on the next config thing | 18:45 |
| apw | they tend to collide like a pig | 18:45 |
| rtg_ | k, about 30 minutes. | 18:45 |
| rtg_ | I'm also getting Keybuk strace patch | 18:45 |
| rtg_ | er, trace event patch | 18:45 |
| apw | sounds good to me | 18:46 |
| smb | rtg_, apw Probably the only risk is for bcmwl but jockey can sort that | 18:46 |
| apw | smb, whats that risk? | 18:47 |
| rtg_ | smb, its already built for the distro arches anyway. so jockey already has to handle it. | 18:47 |
| apw | oh i see having it turned on you mean | 18:47 |
| apw | yeah its arm which is mostly the one which isn't common | 18:47 |
| smb | apw, ssb has the tendency to grab all ssb capable devices (not necessarily only those it has backends for) | 18:47 |
| apw | ahh i see | 18:48 |
| smb | apw, So the wl driver wont work until you remove ssb (plus those using it) then modprobe wl and the again all the others | 18:48 |
| smb | which is the modprobe rule jockey instals | 18:49 |
| apw | ahh hence when i installel the wl thing i had to reboot to get it to work | 18:49 |
| smb | or remove b44+ssb then modprobe wl and probe the other like I did | 18:49 |
| smb | exactly | 18:49 |
| rtg_ | apw, karmic pushed | 19:21 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, what would be a good package for an rfkill application? its needed for acpi-support. perhaps wireless-tools ? | 19:32 |
| Keybuk | yeah something like that | 19:36 |
| rtg_ | Keybuk, so, just drop it in and send a patch to the debian maintainer? | 19:36 |
| Keybuk | yup | 19:40 |
| NCommander | apw, you around? (I'm guessing my SPARC config patch never materialized on the mailing list since i don't see it in history) | 19:53 |
| apw | not seen it no | 19:53 |
| apw | if you want to send it again and cc: me then i can follow up on it | 19:53 |
| NCommander | apw, *sigh*, ok, I have a copy here | 19:53 |
| apw | these things happen | 19:54 |
| apw | i assume its not huge? | 19:54 |
| NCommander | apw, not too big | 19:54 |
| NCommander | apw, forwarded. If it fails to apply, then we've got a problem; my home router has failed, and I can't access my SPARC box remotely (and unless my super can restart the router which is a longshot), I probably won't be able to fix the problem until I return to Rochester in ~3 weeks | 19:55 |
| apw | lets hope it applies | 19:56 |
| NCommander | apw, yeah .... I can try working on faure if it doesn't, but I obviously won't be able to test the results :-/ | 19:57 |
| NCommander | O_O;;;; http://news.slashdot.org/story/09/07/20/1643251/Microsoft-Releases-Linux-Device-Drivers-As-GPL?art_pos=4 | 19:57 |
| apw | well sparc wasn't building last i looked | 19:57 |
| * NCommander feels its a very very cold day in hell ... | 19:57 | |
| apw | its an odd move, lets hope its the open move we would want it to be | 19:58 |
| NCommander | Indeed | 19:59 |
| NCommander | But still, Microsoft committing kernel patches ... | 19:59 |
| apw | i like the chosen tags | 19:59 |
| NCommander | Next thing you'll know, Apple is going to dump Darwin and move to a LInux base | 19:59 |
| apw | heh ... that really would imply flying pigs | 20:00 |
| apw | NCommander, you are in luck it applied | 20:03 |
| NCommander | \ooooooooo/! | 20:04 |
| === manjo`away is now known as manjo | ||
| NCommander | That makes me feel better | 20:04 |
| apw | as it only can affect the ports its pretty safe | 20:04 |
| apw | (for me) | 20:04 |
| NCommander | My issue w.r.t. to the new layout of debian/config is one config change breaks all other pending config patches | 20:04 |
| NCommander | But on the flip side, its nicer to see what is common to all architectures ... | 20:04 |
| apw | yes and no, not as much as you might think | 20:04 |
| apw | your change is an issue as its a big mother | 20:04 |
| apw | and changes a lot of the file | 20:05 |
| * NCommander notes the ports configs are very very unhappy in general as it stands | 20:05 | |
| NCommander | Well, until now | 20:05 |
| apw | but there was an apparmor related changed between your change being diffed and applied by me | 20:05 |
| apw | and they didn't collide | 20:05 |
| NCommander | Thats a nice warm fuzzy feeling | 20:05 |
| apw | the ones where you do what you did there, take an arch from BUST to WORKING | 20:06 |
| apw | is going to run that risk, but generally we change one option at a time and the collisions are managable | 20:06 |
| apw | i am also sure this isn't the last improvement to config management in my lifetime either | 20:06 |
| NCommander | Well, it just needed one big change to make everything happy | 20:07 |
| NCommander | I'm kinda wondering how the configs got this broken though, I thought I fixed all the -ports configs in the jaunty cycle :-/ | 20:07 |
| apw | cannot say, perhaps the wrong ones got pulled to karmic when they merged into the kernel package not sure | 20:09 |
| NCommander | possibly | 20:14 |
| NCommander | Oh well, fixed now | 20:14 |
| apw | heres hoping ... | 20:15 |
| manjo | dinh, did u get a chance to repond to amits question regarding the USB patch ? | 20:45 |
| rtg_ | apw, I figured out where NCommander's patch went. I'd forgotten to moderate the list this morning. | 20:59 |
| apw | rtg_, ahh did wonder ... it looked benign to us so i have applied it | 21:03 |
| * NCommander doesn't understand why he keeps hitting the moderation queue | 21:07 | |
| NCommander | I'm subscribed, and @ubuntu.com addresses should be whitelisted | 21:07 |
| apw | maybe the size limit is very small | 21:07 |
| rtg_ | apw, 40k | 21:10 |
| dinh | manjo: I responded to amitk's email with a condensed patch that only fixes USB...did you not see it? | 21:43 |
| manjo | dinh, ah I must have missed it | 21:43 |
| manjo | dinh, thanks for the update sir | 21:43 |
| dinh | sure thang | 21:44 |
