| tseliot | Keybuk: changing /etc/init/gdm.conf so it checks "and stopped udevtrigger" instead of "or stopped udevtrigger | 09:54 |
| Keybuk | that would be wrong | 09:54 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: this is why I asked. But what happens if we get "stopped udevtrigger" without a drm-device-added or graphics-device-added? | 09:57 |
| Keybuk | then gdm will start | 09:57 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: of course ;) but what happens in the system? Does it mean that we initialise gdm without a graphics device? | 09:59 |

| Keybuk | tseliot: oh, and on the gdm-not-starting thing | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | in my testing so far, when gdm doesn't start, it's not that gdm-binary fails | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | it's that Upstart fails to even start the job | 10:33 |
| Keybuk | which is far more interesting | 10:33 |
| tseliot | oh | 10:34 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: what do you mean by "fails to start the job"? Are you saying that it doesn't depend on the conditions that we test for "start on"? | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | I don't know yet | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | I know that if I pre-start exec touch /tmp/foo - that file never appears ;) | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | to debug, I need to get a boot where gdm fails to start | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | then crash upstart | 10:36 |
| Keybuk | to look at the job data and figure out why it didn't start it | 10:37 |
| tseliot | does it help if you trigger an fsck check? | 10:37 |
| Keybuk | no | 10:37 |
| tseliot | maybe get rid of the failsafex script and try to crash x? | 10:38 |
| tseliot | that should be easy | 10:39 |
| Keybuk | tseliot: not sure how crashing X would help ;) | 10:41 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: gdm wouldn't start, I guess | 10:42 |
| Keybuk | I think you're missing my point | 10:42 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: yes, probably ;) | 10:43 |
| Keybuk | in my tests, when you get those "no X" boots, gdm-binary was never started | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | I actually think that mountall stops sending the events to Upstart entirely | 10:44 |
| Keybuk | and I'm not sure why ;) | 10:44 |
| tseliot | Keybuk: oh, now I think I see your point | 10:47 |
| Keybuk | crashing upstart lets me run gdb over a core file, and look to see whether the filesystem event ever happened | 10:48 |
| Keybuk | (I think it isn't) | 10:48 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: yet again, it occurs to me to ask *why* dkms has to build the kernel modules on boot | 10:50 |
| Keybuk | and why it can't do it in postinst | 10:50 |
| pitti | Keybuk: it does | 10:54 |
| Keybuk | pitti: no it doesn't ;) | 10:54 |
| pitti | it's there for the case that you change the default kernel on boot | 10:54 |
| pitti | or install a custom one manually | 10:54 |
| pitti | it's the last line of defence | 10:54 |
| pitti | Keybuk: dkms uses /etc/kernel/postinst.d | 10:55 |
| Keybuk | so we add 2s to boot time in case someone installs a kernel while the machine is *POWERED OFF* ? | 10:55 |
| pitti | I agree that we shouldn't add 2 seconds for it :) | 10:55 |
| Keybuk | update-initramfs doesn't even defend that much | 10:55 |
| Keybuk | the problem is that it's not a defence | 10:56 |
| Keybuk | if you don't run the boot-time script, you don't get the module | 10:56 |
| Keybuk | even in the case where you didn't do anything stupid | 10:56 |

| Keybuk | kees: you were lucky enough that the networking job brought them up | 15:12 |
| Keybuk | rather than the network-interface job | 15:12 |
| Keybuk | if you look at your patch, here's why it won't work | 15:12 |
| Keybuk | start on foo and bar | 15:12 |
| Keybuk | instance $FOO | 15:12 |

| kees | Keybuk: i.e. I can always depend on "started Blah" since it's either running or not | 16:03 |
| kees | that's why I made network-interface-security a service instead of a task. I was specifically trying to avoid the situation you described since I knew of the "and" bug. | 16:04 |

| HIDID | hello guys | 16:05 |
| Keybuk | it is | 16:06 |
| Keybuk | your network-interface-security job gets started as a result of the network-interface and networking jobs getting started | 16:06 |
| Keybuk | it'll hold it up (because upstart does that) | 16:06 |
| Keybuk | then the interface comes up | 16:06 |
| Keybuk | but most importantly, the next time an interface comes up, your job is already running, so isn't re-run | 16:06 |

| kees | Keybuk: oh, this is great, actually. it lets me hook to n-m's job without touching n-m at all | 16:11 |
| kees | Keybuk: so, a job with start on starting Blah will finish before Blah starts? | 16:11 |

| ion | keybuk: The dkms update still left /etc/init/dkms_autoinstaller.conf to my machines. | 16:48 |
| superm1 | Keybuk, it is a supposed to be a last line of defense. the modules are normally built in the postinst of either the headers or the kernel | 16:48 |
| === jelmer_ is now known as jelmer | ||
| Keybuk | superm1: it's wrong | 16:48 |
| Keybuk | (and it takes 4s of boot time to do nothing) | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | but mostly it's wrong | 16:49 |
| superm1 | 4s is a huge exaggeration | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | people boot old kernels because things went wrong with newly installed kernels or modules | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | the *last* thing they want is new modules being built | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | superm1: no, 4s was the time dkms took in today's charts on my mini | 16:49 |
| Keybuk | that's why I suddenly took interest :p | 16:49 |
| * Chipzz_ agrees with Keybuk | 16:49 | |
| Keybuk | ion: oh, yeah, think-o | 16:50 |
| Chipzz_ | an alternative approach would be using a symlink farm that gets updated at boot time | 16:50 |
| superm1 | was the 4s from the dkms_autoinstaller task, or the dkms status invokation in gdm's task? | 16:50 |
| Keybuk | superm1: both combined | 16:50 |
| cjwatson | make it a friendly-recovery task instead, or whatever that turns into? | 16:51 |
| superm1 | well i'm baffled how this is suddenly 4s. when it lived as an init script before, shouldn't it have been just the same? | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | cjwatson: we basically just dropped that | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | superm1: no idea | 16:51 |
| Keybuk | time regardless, it's wrong to do that | 16:51 |
| superm1 | what if someone installs a custom kernel? | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | then the postinst of the kernel will run dkms | 16:52 |
| Chipzz_ | superm1: couldn't the last line of defence be a symlink/symlink farm? | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | which will run the build | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | and build the modules for that kernel | 16:52 |
| superm1 | i mean from src, not make-kpg | 16:52 |
| Chipzz_ | on a related note, aren't these drivers also stored in a ramdisk or such? | 16:52 |
| Keybuk | if they install a custom kernel from source without running any of the kernel hooks, they won't have a whole world of things | 16:53 |
| ion | superm1: Then she deserves what she gets. :-P | 16:53 |
| superm1 | Chipzz_, this is for any dkms built module, that might not be part of the ram disk | 16:53 |
| Keybuk | like an initramfs | 16:53 |
| Chipzz_ | (which ALSO seems braindead) | 16:53 |
| Keybuk | or modules.dep | 16:53 |
| Keybuk | so they're going to have lots of "failed to boot" before they even *reach* dkms | 16:53 |
| Keybuk | (bearing in mind that the kernel's own "make install" runs distro hooks) | 16:53 |
| Caesar | slangasek: we're doing some more work on 0.25.1 in Debian | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | so the only failure you're thinking of is someone building a kernel on one machine, and then copying, by hand, vmlinuz onto another and trying to boot with it | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | that just isn't going to work | 16:54 |
| Keybuk | for a whole metric shitload of reasons | 16:54 |
| superm1 | there has to be some situation that is coming up here, otherwise there wouldnt have been the situation occurring where gdm was "flashing" for a while while the module was getting booted in karmic | 16:55 |
| superm1 | *built | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | no idea on that one | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | but if there's a bug there, we'll fix it | 16:55 |
| Keybuk | it may be already fixed by the code I ported from update-initramfs into dkms to build the module for the right kernel | 16:56 |
| superm1 | it was the gdm task dying over and over because X couldnt start because closed source blob Y wasnt ready | 16:56 |
| Keybuk | if you updated the kernel and module in one pass, it wouldn't have worked before | 16:56 |
| Keybuk | the blob Y should have been built before the system was rebooted | 16:56 |
| superm1 | agreed, but it wasnt, so thankfully there Was this last line of defense | 16:56 |
| Keybuk | in which case, I'd say your "last line of defence" was hiding a genuine bug | 16:57 |
| superm1 | probably | 16:58 |
| === ogasawara_ is now known as ogasawara | ||

| Keybuk | and having the gdm breakage, dkms breakage, ifupdown breakage, etc. all in one go has not made me cheerful :p | 17:02 |
| === yofel_ is now known as yofel | ||
| superm1 | i'd still really like to at least keep that dkms task if it can be changed to not be causing such a large slow down | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | I would not | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | I think the task is absolutely unequivocably wrong | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | because it defeats the entire point of keeping old kernels around | 17:03 |
| Keybuk | you don't *want* new modules, changes to depmod, modules.order, etc. when you boot an old kernel | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | you want what worked last time | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | that's the only reason you keep them around at all | 17:04 |
| superm1 | yeah i suppose that makes sense | 17:04 |
| Keybuk | if old kernels didn't have a "the new stuff didn't boot" value, we would have tried harder to get rid of them ages ago :D | 17:05 |
| superm1 | did you update the /etc/kernel/postinst.d calls when you uploaded these last few revisions? | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | superm1: shouldn't need to - they were correct | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | kernel postinst should build modules for itself (passing the newly installed kernel version) | 17:05 |
| superm1 | Keybuk, it was doing that by "start dkms_autoinstaller" if i'm not mistaken | 17:05 |
| Keybuk | it looked like it invoked it directly? | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | oh, blah | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | no, I did change it, but then didn't upload | 17:06 |
| superm1 | http://linux.dell.com/git/?p=dkms.git;a=blob;f=kernel_postinst.d_dkms;h=3c7002b25dd5ebdfea7089557a20bfb38f067466;hb=HEAD | 17:06 |
| Keybuk | fixed ;) | 17:08 |
| Keybuk | FreeNode is being almost as reliable as my uploads today <g> | 17:10 |
| superm1 | Keybuk, okay how would you feel about a task for fglrx and one for nvidia -provided by those packages that started on "starting gdm"? It would just do a dkms status for that module for that kernel, and if it failed, run a build for that module for that kernel. those were the two problem cases that were mostly interested in, and those are situations where you need the updated module even with older kernels | 17:10 |
| superm1 | haha yeah | 17:10 |
| Pici | Keybuk: They're experiencing a ddos ;( | 17:10 |
| Keybuk | superm1: no, same problem | 17:10 |
| Keybuk | you'd rebuild a module that worked and replace it with one that didn;t | 17:10 |
| Keybuk | pitti and I talked about this earlier, and we'll instead fix X to fallback to the free driver in that situation | 17:10 |
| superm1 | okay, that's a good enough consolation | 17:11 |
| Keybuk | (where the nvidia blob driver can't run with the older kernel module) | 17:11 |

| === seb128_ is now known as seb128 | ||
| ion | keybuk: Huh. stracing initial mountall run shows it daemonizing first. But then, why does Upstart get confused about its pid when run without strace, and why does it fork-and-exec mounts before daemonizing when started from a running system? | 17:48 |
| === seb128__ is now known as seb128 | ||
| === dendro-afk is now known as dendrobates | ||
| ion | keybuk: Ah! What confused Upstart was the cat /proc/cmdline in mountall.conf. As long as mtab can’t be written, mountall won’t really fork-and-exec fake mounts before daemonizing. | 18:01 |
| Keybuk | ion: yeah, was just thinking that both of those might be the bugs ;) | 18:02 |
| Keybuk | the mounted() bit of mount_policy() should come out and move to after the fork | 18:02 |

| andersk | Keybuk: there is a situation in which /etc/kernel/postinst.d/dkms is insufficient to guarantee that modules are always available for the current kernel. | 20:51 |
| Keybuk | andersk: what situation is that? | 20:52 |
| andersk | Namely, upgrading nvidia-185-kernel-source causes all old nvidia modules to be deleted and a new module for the current and newest kernels to be built. | 20:52 |
| andersk | So if you boot into an older kernel after upgrading the module package, one needs to be compiled at boot. | 20:53 |
| Keybuk | we've already discussed that | 20:53 |
| Keybuk | we're going to make X fallback to the free in that case | 20:53 |
| Keybuk | free driver | 20:54 |
| andersk | Hmm, okay. I missed that. | 20:55 |
| andersk | However, video drivers aren’t the only user of dkms. openafs has the same problem, and there’s no fallback there. | 20:55 |
| Keybuk | and it's arguably a bug that nvidia-kernel-source *deletes* things | 20:55 |
| Keybuk | andersk: it shouldn't delete things then | 20:55 |
| Keybuk | kernel postrm already takes care of that | 20:56 |
| andersk | But it’s important that the openafs kernel module is the same version as the userspace daemon, so it isn’t good enough to keep old modules around for old kernels. | 20:56 |
| Keybuk | so? | 20:58 |
| Keybuk | then don't boot into old kernels with it | 20:58 |
| Keybuk | or namespace the daemon by module version | 20:58 |
| Keybuk | as we're already doing with things like perf | 20:58 |
| Keybuk | their are proper and correct fixes for these things | 20:58 |

| superm1 | there is another situation that i just thought of too that was benefiting the postinst. if a user is booted into say 2.6.32-7-generic, and installs 2.6.32-8-generic but doesn't reboot yet, but installs bcmwl-kernel-source lets say. the postinst doesn't know that the user actually wants the module on both kernels, and the kernel postinst won't catch it on either | 20:59 |
| Keybuk | yes it does | 20:59 |
| Keybuk | I fixed that | 21:00 |
| superm1 | how? the kernel postinst wont be called, if you install bcmwl AFTER installing the kernel | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | why not look | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | the same way we already solved this for the initramfs | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | if you install 2.6.32-8-generic, then install something that goes in the initramfs | 21:00 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: one more question about plymouth - the cryptsetup init script that you whiteboarded at UDS doesn't yet work reliably, because gdm kills plymouthd and once that happens, calling plymouth doesn't do anything sensible. Is the X plymouth plugin still on the radar for lucid? | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | lo and behold | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | it works | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: (a) yes | 21:00 |
| Keybuk | but also (b) gdm should never start before cryptsetup finishes | 21:01 |
| andersk | The module postinst (at least if it uses /usr/lib/dkms/common.postinst) builds modules for the current kernel and the “newest” kernel, which solves that particular problem. | 21:01 |
| Keybuk | now, I'm going to eat my dinner | 21:01 |
| superm1 | andersk, yeah, that's why i'm filing bug 497149 for anything not using it | 21:01 |

| Keybuk | and watch Alicia Silverstone in a, like, really totally rad Jane Austen remake | 21:01 |
| Keybuk | :p | 21:01 |
| superm1 | i think that will take care of this situation | 21:01 |
| slangasek | Keybuk: why, and how do you intend to ensure this? cryptsetup can be used on lots of devices not related to our FHS mounts... | 21:01 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: I removed all that FHS/bootwait stuff | 21:02 |
| Keybuk | mountall waits for everything now | 21:02 |
| slangasek | uh | 21:02 |
| Keybuk | I got sick of the whining | 21:02 |
| slangasek | excluding network mounts, at least? | 21:02 |
| andersk | OTOH, if the user upgrades from 2.6.32-7-generic to 2.6.32-8-generic while they also have 2.6.33~rc1 installed for occasional testing, that fix isn’t quite good enough for them. | 21:02 |
| Keybuk | slangasek: no everything | 21:02 |
| Keybuk | right *going* | 21:02 |
| slangasek | well, that'll be a critical bug then :P | 21:03 |
| superm1 | andersk, yeah, i'm not sure how to address that scenario | 21:07 |
| andersk | Well, there are certainly ways. One way would be for common.postinst to build modules for _every_ kernel, or at least every kernel that’s at least as new as the current kernel. | 21:08 |
| andersk | But there are very plausable scenarios under which that would take a really long time. | 21:09 |
| superm1 | yeah | 21:09 |
| andersk | Maybe dkms could try to parse out the current default kernel from GRUB and compile modules for that one too? (Ew.) | 21:10 |
| slangasek | why is it a problem for it to take a long time, if it's done at package install time? | 21:11 |
| andersk | It probably isn’t a huge problem for most people, it’s just a little irritating for package upgrades to take many minutes. | 21:12 |
| slangasek | if you're aware enough to be irritated by this, aren't you aware enough to remove the old kernels you're not using? | 21:13 |
| andersk | *shrug* Perhaps. | 21:13 |
| andersk | They might not be old kernels; it could just be someone who’s installed several newer kernels than the current one but hasn’t rebooted into any of them yet. | 21:15 |
| andersk | If you’re okay with such users having to wait a long time for upgrades, I think this is a mostly workable solution. | 21:16 |
| slangasek | andersk: I think that's better than making them wait at boot time, sure | 21:20 |
