[06:29] <mlankhorst> morning
[06:34] <mlankhorst> ricotz: I made geode compile but it's probably broken since I lack the hw to test, still should we upload it? Might be a good way to figure out if anyone actually uses it or not :)
[06:36] <mlankhorst> I'll try to get my hands on a geode in the meantime
[06:37] <mlankhorst> but apart from that, xorg 1.13 has the drivers for xserver-xorg-input/video-all ready
[06:43] <RAOF> mlankhorst: Awesome.
[06:52] <RAOF> mlankhorst: If you wanted to test that our xserver coredumping patch was working, what would you do?
[07:03] <jcristau> pkill -SEGV Xorg?
[07:11]  * RAOF adds that to the set of things to test.
[07:13] <RAOF> jcristau: The trick, for of course there is a trick, is that the coredumping patch *sometimes* works :)
[07:14] <jcristau> ick.
[07:14] <RAOF> Yeah.
[07:14] <jcristau> could you get rid of the patch and just always pretend you've been passed -core?
[07:15] <jcristau> (maybe that's what the patch does.  i haven't looked.)
[07:15] <RAOF> That's actually something I've been thinking aobut.
[07:16] <RAOF> Although -core would result in everything being killed with SIGABRT, rather than the true cause.
[07:16] <mlankhorst> RAOF: actually that wouldn't work since the X server checks if it comes from kernel or not
[07:17] <mlankhorst> Hm maybe why it fails.
[07:17] <jcristau> oh.  bad X server.
[07:17] <RAOF> mlankhorst: Really? Where?
[07:17] <mlankhorst> hm let me check
[07:19] <mlankhorst> OsSigHandler
[07:20] <jcristau> it does FatalErorr anyway
[07:20] <jcristau> Error, even
[07:21] <jcristau> just changes the ErrorF msg afaict
[07:22] <RAOF> Oh, yeah. That bit.
[07:22] <mlankhorst> ah k then
[07:23] <mlankhorst> my preferred way to kill annoying dialog boxes that don't have a close button is with kill -SEGV :)
[07:24] <RAOF> I wonder how hard it is to use X's apport hook to teach apport how to extract the right signal from the OsAbort backtrace.
[07:25] <mlankhorst> RAOF: what's stopping you from simply calling apport hook from there directly? Xorg is toast at that point anyhow
[07:26] <RAOF> mlankhorst: Nothing. Well, except that you don't *know* what the right signal is at that point.
[07:26] <jcristau> stuff it in a global :p
[07:27] <mlankhorst> isn't it already with the rethrow patches?
[07:27] <mlankhorst> hm guess not, but fatalsignal gets it as argument
[07:28] <RAOF> It is already with the rethrow patches; I'm hoping to *drop* those patches (given they don't work reliably) in favour of post-processing it in apport.
[07:28] <mlankhorst> oh ok
[07:51] <mlankhorst> I guess the default hook will fail due to lack of X at that point?
[07:52] <mlankhorst> else just stop handling sigabrt/segv w/e
[08:05] <mlankhorst> yay, freedesktop.org account works :)
[08:05] <jcristau> congrats
[22:16] <bryceh> yay, got a mesa provisional MRE
[22:41] <mlankhorst> oh thanks for reminding me i need to test a srgb fix in mesa. it should fix multisampling in nouveau :)
[22:41] <mlankhorst> gnight :)
[23:05] <RAOF> bryceh: Wooo!
[23:13] <bryceh> RAOF, the regression testing plan was their main concern; all that time spent running piglits paid off :-)
[23:13] <bryceh> RAOF, so at this point can you just wave the mesa package through, or is anything else needed?
[23:15] <RAOF> At this point it'll be waved through into -proposed, then build, then we'll want to run some tests on the build from -proposed (because we're paranoid), then it'll get waved through to -updates after the 7 day "does anyone notice if it blows up" phase.
[23:16] <bryceh> ok, I'm going to be on vacation for a week starting wednesday, so won't be able to do any testing really
[23:17] <RAOF> Ok.
[23:17] <bryceh> but I'm set up to do the runs so if no one gets to it before I get back, I can certainly fire the chips up after that.
[23:18] <RAOF> I'll talk to gema and see if I can get it set up in the QA lab, too.
[23:20] <bryceh> you might check to see if there's already a WI open to do that.  I had talked to her about piglit running at sessions last UDS.
[23:21] <bryceh> however, I'm skeptical it's going to be feasible, given that the tests have been hanging for me and so need manual monitoring
[23:22] <bryceh> but hey, where there's a will there's a way.
[23:23] <RAOF> Yeah, we also talked about it at UDS: P.
[23:23] <RAOF> They surely have the tools to handle a hanging testcase. :)
