=== pgraner-afk is now known as pgraner [01:23] I'm seeing black screen off a boot of the maverick 2.6.35-7 on a machine just upgraded from Lucid (i7 with Radeon 4350 graphics), if I remove the load_video and set gfxpayload=keep from the grub text I at least see a panic (related to interrupt mapping) - should removing the load_video and set gfxpayload=keep be safe? [01:25] failsafe is just as broke [01:58] works with nointremap [02:08] https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu-devel/2010-July/030995.html [02:08] https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/grub2/+bug/605614 [02:08] Launchpad bug 605614 in grub2 (Ubuntu) "Maverick's grub-pc package (1.98+20100710-1ubuntu1) causes unbootable system (affects: 2) (heat: 12)" [Undecided,New] [02:09] achiang: It's not just the gfxpayload though, taking those out gets me a panic about interrupt remapping [02:10] * penguin42 is just writing a bug report [02:10] penguin42: a stack trace would help [02:10] achiang: Just give me 3 mins to finish the bug report - it includes a lot of detail [02:11] heh, ok. /me was just drive-by triaging, i'm actually in the middle of something else. [02:13] * penguin42 taps flippers as he waits for launchpad [02:14] ok, what have I missed on bug 605686 [02:14] Launchpad bug 605686 in linux (Ubuntu) "[maverick] noioremap needed - Blocked an interrupt request due to source-id verificiation failure (affects: 1) (heat: 6)" [Undecided,New] https://launchpad.net/bugs/605686 [02:20] penguin42: can you reproduce that with upstream? [02:21] achiang: Havne't tried yet, and I'm about to go to bed (it's 2:20am :-) ) - but will upstream be much different from a maverick 2.6.35 ? [02:21] penguin42: not that much different, but i was going to suggest a bisect. the kernel shouldn't be panicing like that [02:22] achiang: Well, a bit of googling suggests it could always be broken bios data structures - although I thought this was a pretty popular mbd [02:23] penguin42: are you running some unreleased bios? [02:23] no [02:23] the stuff in your DMI table looks a little funky [02:23] dmi.chassis.vendor: To Be Filled By O.E.M. [02:23] achiang: That's normal ; that's what you get if you buy a motherboard rather than buying a whole machine [02:24] penguin42: i mean, even if your bios is broken, 2.6.32 worked, right? so that means 2.6.35 shouldn't be choking [02:24] yeh except they've turned on a new feature in .35 that wasn't previously used [02:25] see http://old.nabble.com/-PATCH-1-2---Maverick--UBUNTU%3A--Config--Enable-CONFIG_INTR_REMAP%3Dy-to28966711.html#a28971597 [02:26] right, so maybe the kernel needs a quirk for your bios [02:26] yeh maybe; of course the interesting question is what % of bios actually work! [02:27] i'd expect that to work well on any server class machine. on a home machine... not so much [02:27] why? [02:28] because as you've discovered, it needs the bios to be written correctly [02:29] nod; you're hoping that the server ones are better written - that's being optimistic! [02:29] in my experience, server BIOSes are written by actual engineers. PC BIOSes seem to be a collection of random bits gathered by Arecibo and shoved into the motherboard [02:29] hehe [02:30] in my past life, i was a kernel developer on server class machines, and had quite a lot of interface with the firmware teams [02:31] suffice to say, when i occasionally talked to the laptop guys, i didn't get the same level of confidence from their bios guys [02:31] nod [02:32] penguin42: anyhow, if you have the time to do a bisect, i think that'd be great. otherwise, your bug report looks fine [02:32] achiang: I'm fairly sure it's the intremap - it was turned on 23rd June according to that series of posts [02:33] penguin42: right, i mean to say, there's probably something wrong in the intremap code; a bisect will help figure out what it is [02:34] that assumes that there is a working version in the remap case though - I'm not sure there is === jjohansen is now known as jjohansen-afk [02:35] be back on later [02:36] right, anyway, it's 2:36am and time for bed, I can look forward to figuring out all the other alpha fun tomorrow [02:37] oops - just spotted typo in title of that bug - did say noioremap, changed to nointremap [02:38] right, bed === hrw|gone is now known as hrw [08:48] morning [08:48] morning [08:49] smb: cking_ morning [08:49] smb: GrueMaster tested security updates for fsl-imx51. boots fine [08:50] cooloney, Yes, saw his email this morning [08:50] cooloney, thanks to all guys testing [08:51] smb: no problem, man [08:52] moin === yofel_ is now known as yofel [09:24] please help, i use Ubuntu 9.10 with splash screen off and when i boot i see this message "udevd [1815] CONFIG_SYSF_DEPRECATED option udev ..." how to fix it? [09:25] without reinstalling system because it works fine [09:25] Linux 2.6.34 #1 SMP Thu Jul 8 19:41:21 EDT 2010 i686 GNU/Linux [09:30] insider, those are just warnings arn't they [09:30] yes but they slow down my booting speed [09:30] they indicate your kernel and userspace are out of sync, which they are as you are not running the matched kernel [09:30] I would think those are. And probably unavoidable with a newer kernel [09:31] how can i disable CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED option? [09:31] would it cause more problems? [09:32] insider, you could try that, no idea if it would work not something i've tried [09:32] how much time are you losing here, about .5s totoal ? [09:32] about 15 seconds [09:33] how many of those messages are you getting printed in totoal ? [09:33] it would have to be a heck of a lot to account for 15s of boot time [09:33] my laptop is Fujitsu V5535 with 2Gb Ram, Intel core 2 Duo 2ghz and boot time is 1.5-2 minutes [09:34] how many of those messages are you getting printed in totoal ? [09:34] i think they appear 2 or 3 times not less then 2 [09:34] printing 3 messages is not adding 15s to your boot [09:34] previous version of Ubuntu 9.10 that i used booted at 45 seconds [09:36] insider, so can you pastbin the dmesg of the slower boot [09:36] can you explain how to do it or where to find logs? [09:36] i'm newbie [09:37] type 'dmesg > FILE' to collect the data (in a terminal window) [09:37] ok [09:37] and then use pastebinit to send it up to the pastebin [09:40] wht is pastebinit? [09:40] i haven't it installed [09:40] i've already read [09:41] pastebinit is a command to send a file to a pastebin and tell you the url to paste in here [09:41] so that we can see the file contents [09:41] or use http://pastebin.com/ ? [09:42] thanks i'm installing it [09:43] http://pastebin.com/R2LUWbBK [09:49] insider, there is exactly one of those messages reported by the kernel [09:50] insider, i assume this is your own configuration as the dmesg is lacking the normal timestamps which might allow one to find out whether it is taking a long time and which bit [09:50] [ 0.000000] Initializing cgroup subsys cpuset [09:50] from my dmesg ^^ [09:51] strange [09:52] why are you running a 2.6.34 kernel anyhow? [09:53] i upgraded it from 2.6.30 [09:54] how to configure dmesg to show time? [09:56] CONFIG_PRINTK_TIME=y [09:57] thanks [09:58] insider, why are you needing to run a custom kernel at all ? [09:58] 2.6.30 was never a release [09:58] Jaunty: 2.6.28 [09:59] Karmic: 2.6.31 [09:59] what userspace are you running all these on, as 2.6.30 was never a release ... [09:59] heh jinz [09:59] jinx [09:59] 2.6.30.9 [10:00] intrepid [10:00] That was 2.6.27 [10:00] you are running a kernel which is newer than lucid on an intrepid userspace ... no wonder its having compatibility issues [10:00] insider, is there some reason you cannot just update the whole thing ? [10:00] now i'm running karmic [10:01] apw: i updated system [10:01] apt-get update && apt-get upgrade won't help [10:01] upgrade-manager ? [10:02] didn't try [10:03] apw: where to past it? [10:03] past ? [10:04] paste [10:04] to paste what ? [10:05] this command upgrade-manager or it is not a command i misunderstood you [10:07] sorry its update-manager ... normally use the menu when i use it [10:10] only skype updates))) [10:10] insider, what are you trying to do by running these kernels, are you just trying to get later stuff so a full update is acceptable [10:10] if so you can use update-manager -d which will offer you the later releases as upgrade destinations [10:10] without -d it wil only update your current release [10:10] will try now [10:10] if you need to keep the older release userspace but want thekernel i would suggest taking the kernels from the later releases directly instrad of making your own [10:32] thanks for help going to reboot === amitk is now known as amitk-afk === amitk-afk is now known as amitk [11:45] any way to exclude a certain path from a git-diff ? I'm doing 'git diff --dirstat v2.6.34..' and want to exclude the ubuntu/ directory [11:57] want to know too.... listening [12:00] amitk, don't know of any way to do that inversion no [12:01] bummer [12:02] as file lists can be directories would something like [12:02] git diff --dirstat v2.6.34.. -- `ls -d | grep -v ubuntu` [12:02] approximate what you wanted [12:03] ls -1d strictly [12:03] (thats a one) [12:03] amitk, ^^ [12:15] apw: 'grep -v ubuntu' takes away the offending directories from display but not from the end result (% of code in various directories among changes I care about). [12:16] amitk, not from the result, i am using the directories as file limits so it should onlly report the diff for the directories not ubuntu and same with the overall results [12:18] apw: doesn't seem to work. http://paste.ubuntu.com/463985/ [12:20] git diff --dirstat v2.6.34.. -- `ls -1d * | grep -v ubuntu` [12:20] try that instead [12:21] amitk, ^^ [12:21] apw: yeah, that seems more sensible. [12:21] git diff --dirstat v2.6.34.. -- `ls -1 | grep -v ubuntu` [12:21] or indeed that probabally works too [12:22] yeah the last is the simplest === Azelphur_ is now known as Azelphur [12:22] apw: yup, that seems to DTRT [14:02] tgardner: are we there yet? :) (IGEPv2) [14:04] amitk, not quite. I at least git it to do something different on boot but I don't have the right serial cable. Loic is bringing one to Prague [14:05] amitk, so, what else do we need for omap4 in mainline Maverick other then the config options? [14:07] tgardner: that itself will enable omap4 + one board based on omap4 (sdp). But Bryan will pull 1-2 patches from the tree slated for 2.6.36 merge to add support for the panda board that ARM team already has access to [14:07] that = applying my config patch [14:08] amitk, cool. will that be sufficient such that we can drop the ti-omap4 branch altogether? [14:08] tgardner: :-D [14:08] you're kidding right? [14:08] amitk, well, no. [14:08] tgardner: that branch has over 700 non-mainlined patches. [14:09] we'll have 2 packages that both support omap4 ? [14:09] guess I was too naive [14:09] FSVO *support* [14:09] tgardner: yes, one that is the whole works (-omap4 only) and one that is mainline-only with multi-omap support (omap3 and 4) in a single binary [14:10] amitk, waht use if the multi-omap one if it doesn't work ? [14:10] amitk, *sigh* - you've just dashed my hopes. maybe next release? [14:10] apw: it gets you the serial port on omap4 [14:10] amitk, ahh i see [14:10] and the same kernel gets you almost everything on omap3 [14:11] so one small step to show kernel consolidation [14:12] tgardner: next release - hopefully a big chunk but not everything [14:55] akgraner, hey you about ? [14:55] apw, I am - what's up? [14:56] akgraner, looks like the wireless link into your house might be sick [14:57] hmmm - let me investigate - brb [14:57] akgraner, your other link must be up [14:57] it is - I'm online ;-) [14:58] akgraner, could you try and telnet to hellhawk.shadowen.org for me from you rmachine [14:58] then we can find out the IP addy of the link and see if its avail both ways [15:10] does anyone understand the check_timer interrupt checking code? [15:13] * penguin42 is wondering if it could just disable interrupt remapping rather than panicing, there appears to be an iommu_disable_intr_remapping that sounds promissing [15:17] penguin42, have you seen https://launchpad.net/bugs/605686 ?
