cndSarvatt, so it turns out the trackpad 10 finger crash issue is a real issue in synaptics18:04
cndcompletely separate from the signal logging issue18:04
cndwe may need to {un,re,}dupe bugs18:04
jcristauick.  are we really unloading drivers from the sighandler?18:26
cndjcristau, yep18:40
jcristauthat seems insane18:41
cndjcristau, to be fair, it is only during server shutdown I think18:47
cndso I don't think we ever actually return from signal context18:47
cndso it's technically safe18:48
jcristauah, sigterm and friends, not sigio18:48
jcristauthat makes more sense18:48
cndbryceh, so now I have a fix for the apple trackpad crashes, and it has nothing to do with the logging in signal context issue18:53
cndthe patch has now become much larger, due to the many paths where messages are logged in signal context18:54
cndand the patch has to be manually backported because some of those paths have changed18:54
cndI think it's too late in the cycle to push a rather large patch that does not have any real affect other than to cause valgrind not to crash18:55
brycehcnd, oh okay, well that's too bad18:58
cndbryceh, I'm going to mark the bug as won't fix, but upload my current patch18:58
cndso if anyone wants to run under valgrind they can apply the patch and rebuild18:58
brycehcnd, alright, maybe add an task for q-series if it's worth tracking for the next release19:01
cndbryceh, I'm hoping we can get it from upstream19:01
cndbut I guess that depends on what upstream release we use for q19:02
Sarvattcnd: i only duped ones that i was sure would be the same thing, people saying they got the crash brushing dust off the touchpad and stuff. jupiter4 didn't fix the 10 finger crash here, guess i have a long fingernail causing an extra touch if i was hitting it with 10 :)19:43
cndSarvatt, ok, cool :)19:43
cndI have a fix uploaded in synaptics19:43
Sarvattyeah got it building now19:43
cndjust waiting for it to be approved19:43
Sarvattthank you thank you thank you in advance :)19:44
cnd:)19:44
cndyw19:44
Sarvattcnd: 20 fingers isn't crashing :)19:51
cndSarvatt, how are you managing that?!19:52
jcristauwith his feet19:52
Sarvattvolunteered the wife to help19:52
cndSarvatt, also, how did you manage to get 20 fingers on that device? :)19:54
