persiaWow!  This is the most useless stacktrace I've seen in a while.00:00
persiaNo pointers to where the segfault is happening.00:00
persiaAnd cyclical from frame #1, with gdb reporting a corrupt stack.00:01
sgnbhum...00:01
sgnbso probably in ocaml land00:01
persiaI'm happy to be a robot, but I don't have any idea how to begin to debug this without instructions.00:02
sgnbwell... you do have access to the surrounding assembly code, don't you? I would try to find the closest symbol or so00:05
persiaI'll need guidance for that.  I'm good at reading stacktraces, but don't really use GDB as such, beyond as a stacktrace generator.00:06
sgnbI usually use the disassemble command00:06
sgnbI should probably do that myself... is there a quick guide to set up an Ubuntu armel box in qemu?00:07
persiaDo you need full system emulation, or just userspace emulation?00:07
sgnbI don't know... sothing enough to reproduce the problem00:08
persiaIf the latter, `mk-sbuild --arch=armel --distro=ubuntu oneiric` should do it, from a Debian system00:08
persiaIf the former, you'll need more setup, and I'd have to hunt up a guide.00:08
sgnbW: Failure trying to run:  dpkg --force-depends --install /var/cache/apt/archives/libc6_2.13-9ubuntu2_armel.deb00:16
persiaOh, right.  debootstrap is broken (/run)00:17
persia`sudo rm -rf /var/lib/schroot/chroots/oneiric-armel`00:17
persiaThen `mk-sbuild --arch=armel --distro=ubuntu natty`00:17
persiaThen `sudo schroot -c natty-armel -uroot`00:17
persiaThen edit sources.list, and dist-upgrade.00:18
sgnbavoiding libc6?00:18
persiaIt doesn't actually avoid libc600:18
persiaIt just avoids the situation that makes libc6 fail to install with debootstrap for oneiric00:18
persiaAlternately, if you want persistence, edit /var/lib/schroot/chroots/natty-amd64/etc/apt/sources.list, and then enter the natty-armel-source chroot.00:19
sgnbok, I can reproduce the segfault00:33
sgnbactually, a mere "ocamlfind" segfaults00:34
sgnbbut I get in gbd: qemu: Unsupported syscall: 2600:34
persiaThat's fine.00:35
persiaWe haven't been grilling qemu-user agressively recently, but I believe that support was added for all the syscalls need to build all the packages in the archive.00:36
persiaWhich would include anything necessary to run ocamlfind properly.00:36
sgnb26 is ptrace00:36
persiaMind you, that isn't how we build stuff, but the work was done to enable just the sort of debugging you're doing now.00:36
persiaAh, hrm.  Maybe running gdb in that environment isn't so reliable :(00:37
persiaWell, I suppose you could try https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch/QemuDebootstrap00:38
persiaI've been reminded that there's a buildd chroot available from https://launchpad.net/api/devel/ubuntu/oneiric/armel/chroot_url if you like.00:39
persia(or rather, from the URI given at that URL)00:39
sgnbpersia: actually, an empty program segfaults00:45
persiaEmpty ocaml program?00:45
persiaThen I'm confused.00:46
sgnbyes00:46
persiaBecause ocaml didn't change between when it was working and when it wasn't working.00:46
sgnbcreate an empty file "toto.ml"00:46
sgnbrun "ocamlopt toto.ml", then ./a.out00:46
sgnbit segfaults00:46
persiaFile "toto.ml", line 1, characters 0-1:\nError: I/O error: /tmp/camlasm637f94.s: Invalid argument00:47
sgnbpersia: with empty toto.ml?00:47
sgnbfor me, it compiles00:47
persiaThat's the output from `touch toto.ml; ocamlopt toto.ml`00:47
sgnbso it means that you cannot even compile anything00:48
persiaapparently.00:48
persiaI got here by dist-upgrading my natty buildd chroot, and installing ocamlfind.00:49
persiaMaybe I need to install something else?00:49
sgnbthat's what I did00:50
sgnbsomething must have changed somewhere else00:51
persiaBetween when I did what I did and when you did what you did?  There was only a short window.00:51
persiaAnd not much has been added to the archive, as folk are trying to fix the /run issue (publishing and buildds are expected to stop being manual any time now)00:52
sgnbno, I meant between 2011-05-20 and 2011-06-2800:52
sgnb(when ocaml stuff started segfaulting)00:52
sgnbit must be something very fundamental in the toolchain00:53
persiaWell, we had a successful run on 2011-06-28 ( ocaml-data-notation ), and the failure on 2011-06-29 (oasis)00:53
persiaThere is no difference in the versions of everything in a buildd chroot there.00:53
persiaSome differences in the build-depends, but nothing that I'd call "fundamental toolchain".00:53
persia(as that would be Priority: required or build-essential, or in the complete dependency/recommendation tree of those)00:54
persiaIt was just mpfr4, udev, and apt that differed in the base set.00:55
sgnbit's getting late here00:57
* sgnb goes to bed00:57
persiaSleep well.00:57
* persia updates the buildlog parsing scripts, and looks for differences in build-dependencies00:57
persiaHrm.  ocaml-findlib is the only package with a different version.01:01
persiaMind you, there are other packages that are present/absent in one or the other build based on differing build-dependencies, but those shouldn't matter for parallel runs of ocamlfind01:02
sgnbwell, one should find an oneiric snapshot of 2011-06-28, and try to compile and run a program there01:03
persiaDunno if such a thing exists.01:03
persiaDoes anyone happen to have an un-updated chroot including ocaml stuff from June?01:05
sgnbpersia: binutils is faulty01:58
sgnbwith the version from natty, the empty program works01:59
Martynhmm?01:59
sgnbpersia: was binutils the same between the two builds above?01:59
sgnbMartyn: an empty .ml file compiled with ocamlopt segfaults on armel02:01
sgnb(since ~end of June)02:01
persiasgnb, Yes02:01
persiahttp://paste.ubuntu.com/643682/02:02
sgnbwell, the upgrade from 2.21.0.20110327-2ubuntu2 to 2.21.52.20110707-1ubuntu1 did trigger the bug here02:03
persiaAh, maybe we have more than one bug.02:03
persiaBoth of those builds were running binutils 2.21.52.20110606-1ubuntu102:03
sgnbmaybe one of them doesn't run native program at all02:04
sgnbindeed, it seems that ocaml-data-notation doesn't run ocamlfind02:05
sgnbah no, it does02:05
sgnbstrange02:05
persiaI think that pair of builds is likely the closest in time we'll find between working and not working.02:06
persiaEverything from oasis on seems to have the same issue.02:06
sgnbwell: take a natty chroot, install ocaml-nox, upgrade everything but binutils and gcc, it works, upgrade binutils, and it doesn't02:06
persiaAnd this makes me suspect that findlib misbuilt02:06
persiaVery odd.02:07
sgnbI don't think findlib is involved02:07
persiaBTW, oneiric can debootstrap again02:08
persiaWhat happens if you install https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/oneiric/+source/binutils/2.21.52.20110606-1ubuntu1 ?02:08

armelTestanyone know of a tool to edit the size of a disk image without messing up the data inside?02:30
persiaDoesn't exist, but there are tools that achieve most of the things that people want to do when they want to do that.02:32
persiaSo, what do you want to do?02:32
armelTestwell i have the same img i was working with yesterday... the img size is only 2G i wanna make it 302:36
persiaOK.  If I remember correctly, that was a raw filesystem on an image, with no internal partitions or anything.02:37
armelTestright02:37
* persia grumbles at dd not behaving quite as expected.02:39
persiaAha!02:40
persiaOK, try `dd if=/dev/zero of=my.img bs=1G count=3 && mkfs.ext4 -f my.img && mount -o loop my.img /mnt/new`02:41
armelTestok kewl imma try one more thing b4 i do that02:42
armelTestthanx again02:42
persiaHeh, OK :)  Note that this creates a 3G image.02:42
persiaThen you have to copy stuff.02:42
persiatar is probably easiest for that.02:43

sijiHi06:44
sijiWhether any netinstall option is avilable for ubuntu-arm06:47
sijiI mean atleast for building RootFs06:48
sijijanimo`, you there06:53
janimo`siji, yes07:00
sijihi07:00
sijiI gone through your doc07:01
sijiregd.devlopers meet07:01
sijijanimo`, here am working with Beagleboard and ubuntu-arm07:01
sijiAnd looking for a small ubuntu footprint version07:02
siji(with minimal things)07:02
sijiSo I think netinstall for arm will be good option07:03
janimo`siji, I have never used netinstall so cannot comment on this :)07:04
sijiok,now netinstall is not there for ARM07:04
sijiSo why cant you add it in the developers agenda ?07:05
janimo`siji, the session is about package build failures and aimed for those who want to help fix them. It is not about installing Ubuntu on ARM hw07:27
sijijanimo`, ok07:28
persiasiji, If you're looking for stable, small-footprint, check out the "headless" images.07:29
sijipersia, ok07:29
persiahttp://cdimage.ubuntu.com/releases/natty/release/07:30
persiaFor the beagleboard, you want the "OMAP3" image.07:30
sijipersia, i have tried those07:30
persiaThe headless one?  It wasn't small enough for you?07:31
persiaNetinstall is only available for oneiric (in-development), at http://ports.ubuntu.com/dists/oneiric/main/installer-armel/current/images/omap/netboot/07:33
persiaBut it may or may not work, depending on the current state of the archive.07:33
sijipersia, ok07:35
sijilet me try that07:35
persiaThanks for helping test :)07:39
sijipersia, actually am in the process of deciding OS for one of our Device07:41
persiasiji, What sort of device?07:43
sijiAn ubuntu based tablet07:44
siji*without android :)07:45
persiaOh, cool!  That sounds kind of exciting.07:45
sijiand i strongly prefer ubuntu07:47
persiaCool!07:47

damian0815hey folks.. i just got wlan working on my pandaboard, got a quick q about wpa_supplicant binary vs functions.sh versions...15:14
damian0815basically /etc/wpa_supplicant/functions.sh includes a "-s" parameter when starting the wpa_supplicant daemon15:14
damian0815but this isn't supported by the wpa_supplicant that comes with ubuntu natty15:14
damian0815is this a bug? something wrong on my end?15:15
ogra_NCommander, oh, in case you didnt notice, persia provided a patch for netboot that now also publishes the MLO and u-boot.bin files ... so we have publically available unpacked binaries for both15:36
ogra_lool, so i'm just looking into adding the postinst/trigger bits to flash-kernel, whats the reason you focus on the ABI only in your original patch, shouldnt just the latest existing initrd suffice to get the version without splitting out the ABI15:38
GrueMasterStill need to post non-uImage versions of the kernel & initrd (or create an abootimg netboot.img) for usbboot.15:38
ogra_GrueMaster, meh, you should have said that when persia wrote the patch ... its just two more lines to the two he added :)15:38
GrueMasterI noted it back at the rally.15:39
ogra_bug ?15:39
GrueMasterNCommander was working on the d-i at the time.15:39
ogra_ah15:39
GrueMasterNo one told me persia was working on it.15:39
ogra_he fixed the other issue a few days ago15:40
ogra_spontaneous as response to a user request15:40
ogra_but it was discussed largely in here, probably at a time where you were asleep though15:41

LPhasGrueMaster, any hint about this? http://dpaste.com/568564/16:03
* GrueMaster looks16:03
GrueMasterI haven't seen that before, but I haven't looked at maverick in quite a while.16:04
LPhashttp://dpaste.com/568555/ this is the make.log16:04
GrueMasterIt looks almost like the maverick ppa got clobbered by the natty ppa release.16:06
LPhasrobclarck (from ti) sent me here saying16:06
LPhas<robclark> hmm.. you might want to ask on #ubuntu-arm ...  I think there was some PM related API that changed in the kernel..  so when it upgrades the kernel, it tried to rebuild the old pvr kernel module, which failed..16:06
LPhas<robclark> I don't remember how to get around that.. I think perhaps remove the sgx packages, then update, then re-install them16:06
LPhasbut makes no sense to me16:06
GrueMasterI'll see if I can reproduce.  May take a while though.16:06
LPhasunderstandable16:07
robclark<LPhas> Linux panda 2.6.35-903-omap4 #22-Ubuntu SMP PREEMPT Mon Mar 28 17:25:09 UTC 2011 armv7l GNU/Linux16:13

ogra_but the trunk driver ?16:13
LPhasmmmh16:13
LPhasso16:14
LPhasyou are saying that i'm not using the up-to-date kernel16:14
ogra_you are using the release kernel16:14
LPhasthat's strange16:14
robclarkyeah.. so I guess you end up w/ release kernel, but trunk userspace syslink libs and trunk firmware16:14
ogra_but not the release PPA for pvr16:14
LPhasok, in which package i have te kernel?16:15
robclarkI seem to remember you need to uninstall pvr/sgx stuff to update.. otherwise the upgrade gets blocked by dkms compile error16:15
ogra_linx-omap4 should be the metapackage pulling in everything16:15
ogra_oh, that might be, could be that dkms is blocking16:15
LPhasuhm uhm16:15
LPhasdpkg drives me mad16:16
robclarkit is a bit ugly, but if you uninstall sgx/pvr stuff first, then upgrade, then re-install16:16
GrueMasterIt may not have updated the boot partition.  We have a bug filed about that.16:16
LPhasi've already tryied to uninstall sgx/pvr16:16
robclarkIt isn't really dpkg's fault..16:16
LPhasand upgrade16:16
GrueMasterRun "sudo flash-kernel" and it should update properly.16:16
LPhasas you said16:16
ogra_GrueMaster, indeed !16:16
robclarkproblem is kernel API that changed, so old pvr kernel module won't compile w/ new kernel headers and visa versa :-(16:16
ogra_why didnt i have that idea !16:16
LPhasbut no newer package were pulled16:16

LPhassob, now i've x not starting16:47
ogra_the existing one in the archive cant depend on a linux-image outside of the archive16:47

persiaSo, about exposing netboot stuff: I tossed in those lines as a whim.  The linked branch should make the process fairly obvious if anyone wants to include more files.18:39
persiaI don't know what needs doing with abootimg to generate the right files for USB: if someone *really* wants to send me code to stick in the file, rather than writing a patch, that works.18:39
persiaI'm also happy to review someone's patch adding abootimg code for syntax, integration, etc. if someone wants.18:40
persia(although I can't commit, so it would be a "looks sane" class of review)18:40
persiasgnb, Thanks for filing a bug about it.  Looks like useful progress is happening there.18:42
persiaogra_, regarding the image list: it's not *my* list (if anyone's it's skaet's), and it has mx5 images for Server starting today and for Xubuntu Desktop starting on Tuesday, so not everything is supposed to wait until 080118:43
* micahg notices a mention of xubuntu ARM images...18:45
persiamicahg, Yeah.  When 0705 passed with no images in site, I bumped the date to 0719, because I figured two weeks was a nice round number, and someone else had set server/mx5 to 071518:46
persiaFrom my memory of our last conversation about it, you didn't really care about the specific date, as long as there was something to test sufficiently before alpha-3 that you had a chance to fix obvious problems.18:47
micahgpersia: sounds good, now I just have to take care of my other stuff so I can actually play with this image :)18:48
persiasgnb, Apologies: I am having a bit of trouble following the discussion in bug #810402 : Does the 4.5 -> 4.6 change mean we need *another* ocaml transition for ABI shift?  Is there something else happening?18:49
ubot2Launchpad bug 810402 in ocaml "all native ocaml programs segfault on armel" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/81040218:49
ogra_note that there was an ocaml rebuild upload today18:50
ogra_which apparently ftbfs on all arches (i havent looked at the logs)18:50
persiaYeah, doko uploaded ocaml to build with a different GCC.18:51
persiaIt didn't work.18:51
* persia grumbles at the institutionalilsation of *yet another* resolution: "qHD", with a vertical component less than 600 pixels (and also less than the 576 pixels we chased last time someone had this sort of brilliant idea)18:52
ogra_well, but you should at least get back horizontally what you lose vertically :)18:53
persiaBut the discussion in 810402 seems to be missing some bits, or at least it doesn't make sense to me as a conversation.18:53
ogra_why else would they add a q in front :P18:53
persia'q' is for "Quarter".18:53
ogra_must be something special :)18:53
ogra_lol18:54
persia19020x1080, except only 1/4 of it, so 540 vertical.18:54
ogra_so not for quality ?18:54
persia960 horizontal is fine.18:54
ogra_sure18:54
Neko960x540? better than iPhone4 resolution! :)18:54
ogra_well, thats close to PAL18:54
persiaStill means that we either have to squash software or declare the resolution unsupported as a primary display18:56
ogra_i would go for the latter18:58
ogra_how many devices that fit a formfactor we target are there ?18:59
ogra_(with such resolution)18:59
micahgjanimo: I know where to find you when I do have porting questions, thanks :)19:03
janimomicahg, ok ;)19:03
* janimo crosses fingers it is not chromium :)19:04
persiaogra_, An increasing number, since the resolution has a special name, and glass is available, rather than being considered weird.19:05

mahmohI'm trying to run pts/java-scimark2 and all the tests fail, exit non-zero, so it's not working for sure.  Should I try the same tests with JemVM? (if that's correct?)19:38
GrueMastermahmoh: It would be interesting to look at the failure log to see why it fails.  I have openjdk-jre-headless running jenkins slave on panda.19:39
mahmohoh, and a crash in netboot too: http://paste.ubuntu.com/644324/ ( cmagina )19:40
mahmohGrueMaster: good point, let me try that19:41
mahmohGrueMaster: it wasn't installed correctly b/c unzip wasn't installed!  Is that a package bug I would guess?19:49
GrueMasterdependency issue.  Should have resolved on it's own, but phoronix-test-suite relies on aptitude to install (which isn't part of the standard image).19:50
mahmohit's not?  It's installed on my image (netboot w/ basic server), unzip was not19:51
GrueMasterI have seen a lot of dependency issues with phoronix.19:51
GrueMasterMy netboot install with basic server & openssh-server didn't have aptitude.  Not sure what else was missing.  Had to install build-essential for the io tests as well.19:52
GrueMasterPossibly due to the debootstrap issues.19:53
mahmohGrueMaster: hm, build-essential was installed for me by pts, aptitude's on there, wonder why our installs are different, itneresting19:53
mahmohinteresting19:53
GrueMasterI installed fresh Tuesday, right in the middle of the bootstrap issues.19:54
mahmohok, I'm installing now on another board so I'll check19:55
mahmohactually, the install crashed (noted above)19:55

JohuHy. I did this : http://seabright.co.nz/2011/03/29/building-the-ubuntu-pandaboard-kernel/ but it didn't seem to do anything. Where should the uImage be?20:34
phharch/arm/boot20:35
Johuit only compilse some object files but makes no linking... is this right?20:38
JohuIt might  be I'm getting just to sleepy.  I'll continue tomorrow.20:41
phhno that's not right20:41
phhthsi page assumes you've got an arm crosscompiler20:41
JohuI was doing it on arm not on crosscompiler20:42
JohuOkey... thanks.20:43
phhok so you don't have CROSS_COMPILE= line ?20:43
Johuin makefile?20:44
phh...20:44
phhin the page you gave, it says to do export CROSS_COMPILE=blabla20:44
Johuno20:44
Johui didn't need to..20:44
Johui didn't crosscompile.20:45
JohuI was running it on panda.20:45
phhso you didn't do what this page states like you first said ...20:46
Johueee... yes (angel).... i did allmost like it told20:46
phhanyway, what did the make say ?20:47
JohuIt just made lot of .o and finaly one ld. It didn't link.20:48
phhld isn't a link tool ?20:48
phhinteresting20:48
JohuOnly on ld.20:49
JohuI did something wrong. I'll go to sleep... won't anoy you any more.20:49
JohuThnx.20:49
phhif you did something wrong there are errors in make log ...20:49
JohuI'll come back with log tomorrow... there was no errors.20:50

persiaCould anyone point me to nice documentation on boot.scr?  I can't seem to find anything :(23:43
rcn-eepersia, just something generic or?  (btw, if this is for the beagle, upstream has moved to uEnv.txt's instead, clear text..)23:52
persiaNot for the beagle, and for a vendor uboot, so not even something where I can happily leverage upstream, sadly.23:52
persiaBut generic works.  I basically want to understand conditionals, how program flow works, and how variables are used.23:53
rcn-eeah, variables get fun.. they end up being 'true' if they are not defined..23:54
persiaIn the end, I probably just want to setenv ramdisk/kernel/bootargs and bootm, but when digging through the pile of examples I have, it helps to have docs alongside to make sure I understand.23:54
persiaOh my :)23:54
rcn-eekinda decent example here: https://github.com/RobertCNelson/flash-omap/blob/master/reset.cmd23:54
rcn-eeif i boot that on  a pandaboard, where "beaglerev" is not defiend it'll drop into every if..23:55
persiaWait, not only is the variable true if undefined, but the tests are automatically true if the variables are undefined?23:55
rcn-eeyeah, that's what i ran into, it was annoying..23:56
rcn-eeso you have to be pretty careful with the end target..23:56
persiaIn one of the examples I'm looking at, there's a construction that might work around that: "if test "_${foo}" = "_"; then:"23:56
persia(explicitly tests for null state, but presumably the same sort of thing could be extended to specifically testing a known state)23:57
rcn-eeactually, yeah that should work, didn't think of that..23:57
persiaHeh, and that's why sharing is good :)23:58
persiaMind you, having documentation that mentioned the flaw in the implementation of test and the workaround would be even better :)23:58
