| apw | ppisati, ^^ | 12:58 |
| tgardner | lamont, you should hassle ppisati | 12:58 |
| * lamont would just like a time horizon for when he can drop the ugly hack he has for $arch=armel | 12:59 | |
| lamont | since ISTR it turned out to be "usb on arm", not "panda" :( | 13:00 |
| apw | lamont, whats the ugly hack | 13:00 |
| lamont | vm.min_free_kbytes = 16384 | 13:03 |
| lamont | which also doesn't quite always provide enough to survive | 13:03 |
| lamont | most of the arm builders are running with just 8192, but the image builders turned out to need, well ,more | 13:04 |
| apw | that potential patch is utterly vile, a nice cacheline bouncer | 13:07 |
| ppisati | lamont: last i heard, our builders were ok | 13:38 |
| ppisati | lamont: but i could be wrong | 13:38 |
| lamont | ppisati: because we hack around the problem | 13:39 |
| ppisati | lamont: ah, i wasn't aware | 13:39 |
| lamont | given that rebooting most of them involves someone physically in the data center, I'm not really inclined to test until someone tells me they've fixed the bug | 13:39 |
| apw | lamont, i thought we now had new ones | 13:40 |
| lamont | apw: new is relative | 13:40 |
| apw | lamont, well ones we can remotly cycle | 13:40 |
| lamont | *aceae are remotely powerstabbable, the others are not | 13:40 |
| lamont | panda boards are a current ticket being worked on this week, might even get done by then, though I' | 13:40 |
| ppisati | lamont: does it mean that we are running the builders with that hack, otherwise we experience the problem? | 13:40 |
| lamont | m getting less confident in friday as the ready date | 13:41 |
| ppisati | lamont: did you try ming lei patch? | 13:41 |
| lamont | ppisati: I'm saying that when they started panicking, I was pointed at that bug as the likely cause, and setting min_free_bytes to 8192 fixed things, so we went with that as the cause and have been happy since, other than a brief period when we lit up some beaglexm image builders and discoverd that 8192 doesn't seem to be enough for them | 13:42 |
| lamont | ppisati: only noticed the patch today. if someone wanted to roll me a kernel to try on one of the builders, I could drop the hack there and give it a new kernel and we could see how long it takes to fall over, though at this point, I'm not aware of what build would be a good testcase | 13:43 |
| lamont | afk for a few | 13:46 |
| ppisati | lamont: do the builders use NFS for building? or do they have local usb disks? | 14:11 |
| * ogasawara back in 20 | 14:23 | |
| lamont | ppisati: the image builders use nfs, the non-image builders use local disk, the pandas-to-be will be devmapper with local disk over a read-only nfs | 14:25 |
| lamont | actually, the pandas-to-be may be localdisk only, haven't decided completely yet | 14:25 |
| tgardner | herton, do you remember what bug it was that you worked with Lamont on the 'af_unix: Only allow recv on connected seqpacket sockets.' regression ? Its in the proposed 2.6.35 stable update, so I thought I should point out to the list the possibility for regression. | 14:26 |
| ppisati | lamont: uhm, and i guess image builders show this problem while the non-image builders don't have it (or don't show it so often) | 14:26 |
| lamont | ppisati: it was much more repeatable (at 8192) on the image builders, than it was on the non-image builders with no hack | 14:27 |
| ppisati | lamont: i see | 14:28 |
| herton | tgardner: let me check here, looking | 14:28 |
| lamont | ppisati: from that, you can infer the timeline of the hack | 14:28 |
| ppisati | lamont: i see, ok, if i roll a new kernel with tha patch, can you test it (without the hack)? | 14:29 |
| herton | tgardner: bug 791512 | 14:30 |
| ubot2 | Launchpad bug 791512 in linux-meta "tcp connections hang in forwarding machine" [Undecided,Invalid] https://launchpad.net/bugs/791512 | 14:30 |
| ppisati | lamont: on one of the image builders i mean | 14:30 |
| tgardner | herton, thanks | 14:30 |
| lamont | ppisati: I believe so | 14:30 |
| ppisati | lamont: actually the patch will just limit the numer of simultaneous skb | 14:31 |
| ppisati | lamont: so it won't fix it | 14:31 |
| lamont | heh | 14:31 |
| ppisati | lamont: when you it the problem, it will start to drop pkts | 14:31 |
| lamont | dropping packets is better than dropping the machine | 14:31 |
| ppisati | lamont: and i guess with NFS that would be trigger another problem | 14:31 |
| ppisati | lamont: but does it panic? | 14:31 |
| lamont | oh yeah. | 14:32 |
| lamont | "trying to allocate memory on interrupt stack with no free memory" or such | 14:32 |
| lamont | I'll take kernel panic for $200, bob. | 14:32 |
| ppisati | i see, ok so, let's try with that patch | 14:33 |
| * ppisati goes to compile a new natty kernel | 14:33 | |
| ppisati | lamont: natty right? | 14:33 |
| lamont | hahaha | 14:33 |
| lamont | maverick on those machines | 14:33 |
| ppisati | ah ok :) | 14:33 |
| lamont | the pandafarm will be natty | 14:33 |
| lamont | and if #distro is willing to sign off on building lucid bits on a natty kernel (y'all factor into that answer...), then the greater-we will be happier and maybe we can get all the arm builders up to natty | 14:34 |
| lamont | but we'll probably want to hold off on oneiric until the next LTS, and then flash forward to the LTS | 14:35 |
| * lamont heads to town, afk for a bit | 14:35 | |
| * ppisati wonders if there's a way (zone tunable, sysctl, /sys/*, etcetc) to tweak/limit/throttle skb allocations by size/requester | 14:37 | |
| apw | ppisati, it doesn't look like it, but worth trying to find out from more expert people | 14:40 |
| ppisati | apw: i'm pretty sure there's some kind of mechanism | 14:41 |
| ppisati | uhm... | 14:41 |
| apw | ppisati, i was saying at the level the code is being modded, above it there may be, i'd take my input as "don't know, you should find out" | 14:41 |
| ppisati | yep | 14:41 |

| davmor2 | ogasawara: I'm just double checking should I be setting these up from a kernel with the wifi working? I'm assuming is shouldn't matter but as I've found out before assumption is the best policy | 16:36 |
