lagMornin'07:07
cooloneylag: morning, man07:12
lagHey Bryan :)07:21
smbcooloney, Morning. Any news from Freescale about the brickage?08:28
cooloneysmb: morning, i am just wanna discussing with you. 08:29
cooloneysmb: actually, i don't have any update as we got in the email08:29
cooloneyi saw you post the security kernel in the email08:30
smbOk, I had been looking at the source code on Friday. Right, there were two updates missing from the latest security, but otherwise it was as I would expect it08:30
smbAnd from the things missing its hard to believe that this can destroy things as it did08:31
smbVery strange08:31
smbThe only other variance was that I built on tangerine but you do that too08:31
cooloneysmb: for fsl-imx51, i built them in *.mills. 08:34
cooloneyalthough it is different, i still don't think build machine is a issue.08:34
cooloneyi have to say ' that's pretty odd'08:34
cooloneyso what's our next?08:35
cooloneyi am going to send out an email to ask?08:35
smbcooloney, So just to confirm that for myself. When you installed the bad kernel, you once could boot but it crashed. And only then was the board bricked?08:35
cooloneysmb: oh, IIRC, it never boots any more08:36
cooloneywe installed the whole system on babbage08:36
cooloneyand copied your kernel .deb file to the board08:36
smbcooloney, So in theory it could be some weird wrongness in the flashing process as well?08:36
cooloneyand sudo dpkg -i *.deb08:36
cooloneysmb: yeah, at the end of the installation, it will try to update the kernel in flash08:37
cooloneyso maybe corrupted sth08:37
lagcooloney: How 'bricked' are they?08:38
lagcooloney: Have you tried to JTAG them yet?08:38
smbThough quite mysterious to do that twice. Anyway, I guess we want to know what _did_ break things. As much as I understood mails. We only know that it was not what fsl thought it was.08:38
cooloneylag: cannot even boot from the bootloader08:38
cooloneylag: too bad, i don't have it08:38
cooloneyand we shipped them back to fsl 08:38
lagOkay, I assume they'll try to JTAG them back to life then08:39
cooloneylag: yeah, i think so08:39
cooloneysmb: let me send out email to sync up with fsl guys08:39
ikepanhccooloney: you mean you update a can-not-boot kernel to babbage and have to send the board back to fsl?08:39
smbikepanhc, We found out about the cannot-boot after flashing. :)08:40
cooloneyikepanhc: we tried to test smb's security kernel08:40
cooloneyafter we installed that kernel, the board cannot boot anymore08:40
cooloneybricked the board 08:40
cooloneysmb: yeah08:40
cooloneyupdate the kernel image in on board flash or somehow08:40
ikepanhcIIRC babbage board can boot from SD card...08:42
simon___bump to anybody: i have found a bug and don't know where to report it - i have a packard-bell laptop and the kernel loads asus_laptop driver by default (it's enabled in the stup process). it's a driver that's causing some problems (e.g. wifi) and the workaround is to blacklist it. where should i report it?08:44
ikepanhcsimon___: please report it08:44
smbsimon___, Launchpad against linux package08:44
cooloneyikepanhc: yes, but it needs it's on-chip bootrom supports that.08:45
ikepanhcsimon___: you mean you have a dell laptop and asus-laptop loaded?08:45
cooloneyikepanhc: it does not boot from anywhere after that.08:45
ikepanhccooloney: oh, too bad08:45
ikepanhccooloney: ah? on-chip bootrom erased? *faint*08:46
smbikepanhc, Hm, was it asus-laptop which got the handling for the lenove because they had the asustek acpi id?08:46
ikepanhcsmb: asus-laptop.ko will look for ACPI HID ATK0101 or ATK010008:46
ikepanhcbut they shall not be there on dell laptops08:47
smbikepanhc, So it might be the dell also has that08:47
smbikepanhc, Its said to be packard-bell08:47
ikepanhcsmb: that will be bad news08:47
smbnot dell08:48
ikepanhcsmb: ohoh, sorry for my poor eyes08:48
smbikepanhc, I got that problem too often. :)08:48
simon___ikepanhc:smb is right, it's packard-bell08:48
ikepanhcsimon___: if you filed the bug, please let me know the bug id08:49
ikepanhcsimon___: I think I can try to help you08:49
smbsimon___, The best way would be to use "ubuntu-bug linux"08:49
simon___ikepanhc:i'll file the bug right away.. tnx08:49
simon___smb:should i use "ubuntu-bug linux" with asus_laptop loaded?08:50
ikepanhc<---- has a laptop with asus-laptop08:50
smbsimon___, If it is usable to reach the network yes.08:51
ikepanhcsimon___: with or without is ok08:51
smbAt least with the driver loaded it might show some of the problems in the logs08:51
ikepanhcyes08:52
simon___smb:wifi doesn't work, but the cable is ok08:52
smbsimon___, Ok, then do it with it loaded. Sounds a bit like rfkill might be messed up in that case08:52
simon___smb:i agree..at first i thought it was a wifi driver issue so i filled a bug there:08:55

smbcooloney, Sort of. If you take the additional stuff off after 608-1509:01
cooloneysmb: got it. @tags/Ubuntu-2.6.31-608.1509:02
smbcooloney, yup09:02
smbcooloney, I hope the security release is going out soon, then I can push all of the code09:03

ikepanhcsimon___: please do so.09:42

Coronahi everybody11:03
Coronai'm trying to build a kernel in order to test a patch11:04
Coronai'm following these instructions https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/GitKernelBuild11:04
Coronabut apparently they only work for linus's tree and I need to apply a patch to drm-intel-next11:05
Coronadoes anybody know where i can find instructions on how to do this?11:05
=== amitk-afk is now known as amitk
apwhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev/QuickBuildLocal12:09
apwCorona, that one perhaps ^^12:10
Coronathanks apw, but that's not really what i'm looking for. can i just clone git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/anholt/drm-intel.git and then apply the patches or do i need to merge the drm-intel-next branch with linus's tree?12:16
apwCorona, as the drm-intel branch is just a derivative tree from linus' tree you should be able to do the same thing to it you can the linus tree12:17
apwthough i'd have thought you really want an ubuntu tree and cherry-pick the patch you need onto it12:17
Coronathe patch is in mailbox format so that's why i was told to use git12:18
Coronahere's the patch, but i can't get the kernel to compile when i apply it12:18
Coronahttps://bugs.freedesktop.org/attachment.cgi?id=3695912:18
apwhow does it fail12:19
Coronait doesnt say much, the compilation process stops with "error 2"12:20
Corona[debian/stamp/build/kernel] Error 212:20
Coronai just started over with a clean tree so i'm going to have lunch while it compiles12:22

smbOk, so rather hang than thermal shutdown13:48
JFojust nothing displayed13:48
smbReally sounds like some stuff that apw had seen. But that was rather on boot13:49
smbLike the drm driver locked down hard while not refreshing or so13:49

cndmorning everyone :)14:48
diwicmorning cnd14:48
cndanyone know how linaro stuff flows to the ubuntu kernel14:49
cndthings like Dave Martin's perf patches that he posted about on the kernel-team mailing list?14:49
cndapw, tgardner, ogasawara? ^^14:53
apwcnd, they have their own master tree14:53
cndapw, so does that mean that if we want Dave's cool patches, we need to have them submitted specifically for the maverick kernel?14:54
amitkcnd: isn't that why he posted it to the k-t list? Do they not apply?14:56
jwest-hi14:57
jwest-is the 2.6.35 kernel released today14:57
diwiccnd, I look through the canonical-kernel-team list but can't find anything from Dave Martin...?14:57
ogracnd, depends on the kernel15:00
ogracnd, for omap4 we still have the separate branch, omap3 gets built from the ubuntu source package, i guess you will find linaro patches only in the linaro branch and binaries15:00
cnddiwic, the kernel-team@lists.ubuntu.com mailng list15:01
jwest-do you guys think i should update to the 2.6.35 kernel?15:01
jwest-or wait?15:01
cndogra, I'm interested in Dave's perf patches15:01
cndwhich aren't arch specific15:01
JFojwest-, depends on what the machine you are upgrading is used for15:01
diwicjwest-, we always need more testers :-)15:02
amitkcnd: you didn't answer me, do they not apply?15:02
JFoI don't recommend updates to dev unless it is a test machine15:02
JFoyeah, what diwic said :)15:02
cndamitk, sorry, didn't see your msg15:02
cndI don't know if they apply, because I haven't had time to really take a good look15:02
cndamitk, so I was wondering if I needed to take a look, or if they would be pulled automagically into ubuntu15:03
amitkcnd: in general, I've been urging everything going into the linaro kernel to be made available for ubuntu (post to k-t). Then it is upto the k-t to decide if they want to them15:04
amitks/for/to15:04
jwest-diwic: i could try:D15:04
amitks/want to/want to apply/15:04
amitk*sigh*15:04
tgardneramitk, y'all could have your very own linux-linaro kernel if I could get the packaged accepted. I sent slangasek and email about it.15:07
tgardners/and/an/15:07
amitktgardner: sure, in this case though, the changes are general enough for other flavours too, I believe15:08
cndsorry for going awol, I'm otp :(15:08
tgardneramitk, the perf bits? If they get accepted upstream then we'll likely be able to get 'em via stable (eventually)15:09

tgardnersmb, I only asked if mvl-dove was subject to SRU.16:40
smbtgardner, Ok, ok, the rest you don't care. :) I'll post a reply16:40
smbbjf, Were you usually quick reading ARM pull requests16:43
bjfsmb, not exactly sure what your question is but I did see eric's pull request, want me to review it?16:44
tgardnersmb, bjfwhy bother? About all we can actually change is packaging, so the rest is just a waste of time.16:45
smbbjf, I just vaguely remembered you once going over some patches from Bryan for fsl. On their topic branches its not really required as they are ok to do what they want16:45
tgardnerbjf^^16:45
smbbjf, The question was more were you planning16:46
smbBut otherwise I'd agree not to bother too much16:46

tgardnerCurrentDmesg.txt is only a fragment, so I can't tell what kernel it is17:37
bjftgardner, don't know17:37
bjftgardner, the apport-collect was done on 2.6.3217:38
tgardnerbjf, he says 'Booting from a SATA drive seems to works'. I wonder if he means that the SAS drivers work when booting from SATA.17:39
tgardnerSAS drives*17:39
tgardnerin which case that inmplies its an initrd problem17:39
smbtgardner, The question would be whether those need additional handling beside of the diver being loaded17:40
tgardnersmb, well, like what?17:40
smbHeck if I knew. But in those dmesg the drive came up quite late after the SATA drive and network stuff17:41
smbDo those things need special fw loaded?17:42
tgardnersmb, yes IIRC17:42
tgardnerit looks like he able to install to a SAS drive, so that means the boot kernel did the right thing17:43
smbWell the boot kernel had a different medium for the root fs17:43
smbie the cd17:43
tgardnersmb, thats beside the point. the boot kernel _did_ see the SAS drives.17:44
smbWe are talking about the boot dmesg in the report, which was booted from SATA17:44
smb?17:44
tgardnersmb, I think so, but its hard to tell17:44

tgardnerin CurrentDmg.txt17:46
smbThat is later on in the current dmesg17:46
smbyep17:46
tgardnerhuh? Its right at the top17:47
tgardneroh well, I'm gonna ask for some clarifications in the bug17:47
smbLike you need the root fs (or stuff from there), then it takes a bit to initialize and then the drive come up17:47
* manjo getting lunch will be back soon17:49
smbI am not sure, but I thought boot.dmesg ends when switched from initrd root to real root fs. But I might be wrong17:49

komputessmb: ping18:19
* smb is only available for really simple stuff18:20
komputessmb: Do you know a way to tell if KMS is currently enabled.18:22
komputes^ simple?18:23
smbNot sure there is a single bit somewhere. apw do you know that. Otherwise usually you would see special drmfb devices...18:24
tgardnerkomputes, as far as the kernel team is concerned, the first step towards debugging desktop issues (like KMS) is to try a recent release.18:24
komputestgardner: right, in mode cases that would do however I simply want to know if there is a way to tell if, in the current session, xorg or the kernel is doing mode switching18:26
smbMost drivers seem to emit stuff like18:27
smb[   15.602350] [drm] radeon defaulting to kernel modesetting.18:27
smbHm, not intel as it seems18:28
komputessmb: interesting, dmesg...eh?18:28
smbkomputes, Yep18:28
komputestgardner: would explain why I can't see it for my intel card18:28
smbBut there you would see inteldrmfb being used which iirc indicates kms18:29
komputesok, well thanks guys, that helps - would be nice to see it on i915 driver as well, but this is good enough as an indication :)18:29
komputesand tgardner, thanks for following up on Bug #611474, much appreciated18:30

proppyjust installed .../linux-image-2.6.35-14-generic_2.6.35-14.19~lucid1_amd64.deb19:31
tgardnerproppy, you gotta wait until i386 finishes.19:31
jjohansen->Lunch19:31
proppyoh ok, 19:32
proppythe package seems there thought linux-headers-2.6.35-14-generic_2.6.35-14.19~lucid1_amd64.deb19:33
proppyonly one of its dependencies is missing19:33
tgardnerproppy, all of the linux-headers packages depend on a package that is only built for i386, so it'll be awhile yet19:33
proppyoh ok, tgardner thanks for this information19:34
proppyso I should wait until https://launchpad.net/~kernel-ppa/+archive/ppa/+build/1900054 is done right ?19:34
proppy05/08 ;019:34
proppy:)19:34
tgardnerproppy, I don't know whats taking so long, but I wanted to advertise the amd64 binaries so folks could do some testing19:34
proppytgardner: do you want me to do any test in specific ?19:35
tgardnernothing particular other then just using the kernel19:36
proppywas looking for this patch http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/tip/linux-2.6-tip.git;a=commit;h=a1e80fafc9f0742a1776a0490258cb64912411b019:39
proppyobviously it is included in 2.6.35-1419:39
proppytgardner: do you know if I could me the missing package myself ?19:40
proppyapt-get source linux-headers && debuild ?19:40
tgardneryeah, if you know a bit about building the kernel. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/Dev19:41
proppytgardner: thanks for the pointer19:43
proppy'fakeroot debian/rules binary-indep' was what I was looking for19:43

proppyoh ok, should we updated the wiki page ?20:11
tgardnerproppy, I need to experiment a bit. I think build-dep doesn't work as well on older releases.20:11
