cjwatsonjibel: reproduced (small silver lining, large cloud)00:09
cjwatsonnow let's see if it happens in qemu00:09
cjwatsonjibel,skaet: I'm (a) confident I can fix this (b) doubtful I can do so in time for tomorrow00:24
skaetcjwatson,  is there a workaround?   or do we tell people not to use WUBI in the release notes?00:24
cjwatsonI'm not sure, it's crashing in the grub configfile command00:25
cjwatsonno obvious workaround, at least00:25
cjwatsonI hate wubi00:25
cjwatson(but it's probably a GRUB bug)00:25
* skaet is starting to get to that viewpoint as well - re WUBI00:25
skaetok,  we'll have to document it prominently that WUBI is not working quite yet00:26
* jibel seconds cjwatson re hate wubi00:27
jibelskaet, or install maverick and upgrade to natty ;-)00:27
cjwatsonI think it must be a memory allocation bug buried in grub somewhere00:27
cjwatsonjibel: to me, there's no obvious reason why that wouldn't suffer from the same bug00:27
cjwatsonexcept perhaps luck00:27
jibelI'm lucky then, upgrade passed on both arch00:28
skaethmm,  so we could see upgrade random failures crop up too...  blech.00:29
cjwatsonwubi in "random upgrade failure" shocker, film at 11 :-/00:29
* cjwatson goes and gets coffee before stepping through with gdb00:30
skaetcjwatson,  thanks for figuring it out.00:30
cjwatsonsomething similar actually happened to me when I was testing a previous fix, but when I tried to debug it, the bug ran away and hid and wouldn't come back out00:31
cjwatsonso I concluded I must have hallucinated it somehow00:31
cjwatsonbut maybe this was the same thing; malloc arena corruption could explain it being a bit of a heisenbug00:31
jibelskaet, ok so here is the status for today:00:33
jibel * Image Coverage       : 84.21% (64/76)00:33
jibel * Mandatory Test Cases : 86.94% (213/245)00:33
jibel * Run Once Test Cases  : 43.42% (33/76)00:33
jibelremains: ec2 and arm00:34
skaetthanks jibel,   so tobin and carlos are both in north america,  so fingers crossed remainder should get results added tonight.00:35
jibelI'll do the netbook tomorrow morning, and if we remove wubi from the list we are all set. Tomorrow we'll be able to test the few run once testcase.00:35
* skaet otherwise tomorrow's going to get exciting. 00:35
* skaet nods00:36
jibelit would be better if carlos test ec2 rather than raid1. anyone can test raid1 unlike ec200:36
jibelhggdh, ^ what do you think ? can we have some results about ec2 ?00:37
jibeljamespage can do raid1 tomorrow morning (GMT)00:38
hggdhjibel: please have a look at the ec2 results... they are being updated00:38
skaetjibel,  I think hggdh is has some results ready from jenkins runs, just hasn't transcribed.00:38
* skaet hopes so, at any rate00:38
skaetheh00:39
jibelhggdh, oh great, I'll hit the refresh button faster next time. many thanks!00:39
hggdhskaet: indeed, we have to look at each one, we are still building up the ec2 tests on jenkins (results are spread around)00:40
skaetGrueMaster,  ^^  will you be able to get through most of the arm cases tonight?00:41
GrueMasterI'm still turning and burning.00:41
GrueMasterI have the kubuntu-mobile left.  I've pinged the kubuntu team about the remaining omap3 image.  I can test it as a last resort though.00:41
* skaet thinks that "turning and burning" should be a song lyric. ...00:42
skaetGrueMaster, if we don't get omap3 coverage from kubuntu team, and you don't have bandwidth to get to it,  we'll just hold the image until it is tested.   Won't be a blocker on announce.00:43
jibelgood night everyone !00:44
skaetthanks jibel!   sleep well.00:45
hggdhskaet: done01:09
hggdhskaet: meaning EC201:09
* hggdh needs a wisky01:09
GrueMasterA?  No specific quantity?01:12
charlie-tcaI could use one too01:15
skaethggdh,  single malt or blend?01:15
charlie-tcamake it big!01:15
* skaet can use one as well.01:15
skaethggdh,  thanks!01:15
hggdhskaet: heh. Right now alcohol content is more important ;-) But single malt whenever possible01:16
hggdhcharlie-tca: I am with you!01:16
skaet:D  +101:16
cyphermoxis kubuntu mobile the only non-arm iso left to test?01:19
cyphermoxnevermind, I'm being dumb01:20
skaetcyphermox,  I believe so, but additional coverage on the desktop images after the respin would be very welcome from a double check/sanity perspective.01:20
cyphermoxcertainly, if this can wait until tomorrow (because I'm about to leave this café, it's about to close and need to sleep eventually)01:23
cyphermoxtomorrow I'll have access to more cpu cycles too, starting 7am est01:23
cyphermoxskaet, that kubuntu mobile image doesn't seem to have a correct page for the iso with md5sums and all01:23
skaetcyphermox, understand.   rest up.   we may be respinning some desktops tomorrow.01:24
skaetcyphermox,  hmm... ok will look into the kubuntu mobile image and see if I can figure out what happened.01:24
cyphermoxok, further respins for desktop?01:25
skaetcyphermox,  the WUBI/grub memory allocation bug is causing some discussions.01:26
cyphermoxah01:26
skaetnot sure about outcome yet.01:26
cyphermoxwhat time would the respins be done by?01:27
cyphermoxI wonder if I could schedule rsync early for all the isos to be retrieved by the time I get to work01:27
skaetdependent on how long it takes colin to do the fix.01:27
cyphermoxskaet, duh, right01:28
skaetfingers crossed if we go that route,  start of the morning.01:28
cyphermoxheh. even the casper bugs open against Live for Desktop amd64/i386 look nasty but hardware-specific01:30
cyphermoxI'll be happy to do some cross-checking with some hardware I have early tomorrow :)01:31
cjwatsonskaet: well, currently single-stepping through lots of grub code ...02:17
cjwatsonI can't stay up much longer though02:17
skaetcjwatson,  I'm sorry - no easy fix then?02:18
cjwatsonI'm sure it'll turn out to be easy when I figure out where it goes02:20
cjwatsonbut I have only tenuous threads of a clue so far02:20
cjwatson[5~/wg 2902:29
cjwatsonsigh02:29
patrickmwjibel: what's the best way to report translation bugs (as in text that needs to be translated)?03:13
patrickmwjibel_ ^03:14
cjwatsonskaet: the debugging environment is very painful, but I *think* the line where it's going wrong is shortly after 'set root=(loop0)'.  That's been a problem in the past (GRUB lost hold of the old root device when changing root to the loopback device), but I patched that, the patch went upstream, and I've checked that it's still there.  Still, this looks like a promising line of attack.04:17
skaetcjwatson,  glad a possible root cause has been uncovered.   :)04:18
* skaet thinks very painful, was an understatement. 04:18
cjwatsonskaet: it seems fine when running commands by hand, so I think it has to be something to do with reading data from a file while the root device is changed04:19
cjwatsonI'm still guessing a bit04:20
skaetrace condition?04:20
cjwatsonno04:20
skaetgood04:20
cjwatsonit's all synchronous04:20
cjwatsonGRUB is single-threaded04:20
skaetdeterministic is good.   :)04:20
cjwatsonnear enough deterministic anyway.  It sometimes fails in slightly different ways, or manages to pass briefly depending on memory layout.04:21
skaetvery painful was an understatent.04:22
cjwatsonall very odd though.  the device is meant to be resolved at open time and held until the grub_file_t is freed.04:23
cjwatsonso I can't claim to quite know what's going on yet.04:23
skaetAm sort of wondering if some sort of stomp is going on  (field over run, that changes state)..04:24
cjwatsoncan't say as yet04:24
skaetyeah04:24
skaetglad you've found a line of attack.    Calling it a night?04:25
cjwatsonyeah, probably04:25
skaetAnything you need me to keep an eye on if so?04:25
cjwatsonnothing in particular, just test state and such in case any new showstoppers arise04:26
* skaet has a couple more hours edit in the bugs to the release notes, etc. 04:26
cjwatsonI don't think wubi's going to make the cut this time, TBH04:26
cjwatsonwhich is deeply irritating04:26
* skaet nods04:27
skaetI'm composing my text to warn folks away from it now.   Will let others massage it tomorrow.04:27
GrueMasterI'm seeng a lot of crashes in kubuntu desktop on armel (both omap & omap4).  Not sure what is critical and what isn't.  I have a functional desktop so I don't think there are any show stoppers.04:28
GrueMasterOne issue I have is that they have their own crash handler that reports to bugs.kde.org.  So I have to file it there, then file it here and link the two before adding it to the iso tracker.04:29
cjwatsonit could be nothing to do with my hypothesis above and actually be a buffer overflow in grub_file_getline or something; we'll see.  All I've actually proven is that it's somewhere in read_config_file04:29
skaetGrueMaster, ok.   Will look forward to adding lots of bug/warnings then in the notes tomorrow from that area.  Thanks for the head's up.04:30
skaetcjwatson,  fresh eyes in the morning, will hopefully make it clear.04:31
GrueMasterI'm only doing a basic boot/login test.  I'll let the kubuntu folks do the app testing.  This is painfully slow without video acceleration.04:31
GrueMasterAnd SD makes it even slower.04:31
skaetGrueMaster, urk, sounds like you've been having a painfull evening as well.  yuch.04:32
* skaet has been translating bug titles into prose for a hundred or so bugs... 04:34
GrueMasterNeed a script for that.  :P04:34
skaetUsed the script to get them into a form,  I could start to work with them.04:35
skaetNot sure how to get folk to write better bug titles though...   which is what it will take to truly automate it.04:35
GrueMasterSounds like the script needs work to do bug presentation right...file a bug on it.04:35
skaetlol04:36
skaetGrueMaster,  can you print out the kernel version for me on the OMAP4 images?04:37
GrueMasterlinux-image-2.6.38-1207-omap4 2.6.38-1207.10 from the manifest.04:38
GrueMasterGrrr.  The KDE crash handler took so long to come up, I forgot what crashed and it doesn't say when asking for a bug title.04:39
skaetthanks!04:39
GrueMasterThe pain!  55 minutes to file a bug.04:55
