caribouhi, would there be any reason against having hpwdt (watch dog timer) module built for Precise ?10:28
caribouit's being built for Quantal but not for Precise10:29
caribouapw: any thought on building hpwdt for Precise ? I'm testing a build right now10:56
apwcaribou, if it is hardware specific (ie loads only on specific machines) and we can test it on those machines then it likely would be SRUable11:02
caribouapw: not sure if it is H/W specific, but it will only be usable with system equiped with iLO I think11:04
caribouapw: since we now build it for Quantal, I thought it would be also possible for Precise11:04
caribouapw: I'll test my kernel on the proper h/w and will report back11:04
apwcaribou, yeah sounds reasonable, if we can regression test it, and there are not heaps of reports pointing at it in Q then its not sounding very high risk indeed11:05
caribouapw: ok, I'll let you know what I find, thanks11:05

apwbjf, i don't see you on server12:35
bjfapw, server won't take the saved password (which hasn't changed forever)12:35
apwbjf, did you enable 2-factor ?12:36
bjfnot recently12:36
rtgbjf, you're back in the states by now, right ?12:36
bjfwas working just fine yesterday12:36
apwnot that then12:36

bjfit's something he has to commit to doing12:38
bjfhe doesn't want to make the long trek back and forth if not necessary12:39
rtgbjf, speaking of commits, home come Oneiric/Precise master-next branches aren't building ?12:39
rtghow come*12:39
rtghmm, ARCH_RANDOM is new12:39
bjfrtg, don't know, haven't looked12:39
rtgbjf, I'm fixing them....12:39
bjfrtg, who's been pushing broken shit on my trees?12:40
rtgbjf, gotta be one of your guys.12:40
bjfrtg, we know it wasn't henrix, i know it wasn't either me or sconklin so that just leaves ...12:41
rtgbjf, looks like 2 new config options appeared with the last stable update, CONFIG_ARM_ERRATA_775420 and CONFIG_ARCH_RANDOM12:41
bjfhmmm12:41
rtgI'm assuming stable wants them enabled12:42
bjfi guess12:42
hertonbjf, rtg, probably was the stable updates I pushed yesterday12:46
rtgherton, yep, I'll have it done in a few minutes.12:47
bjfherton, did you build test them?12:47
hertonno12:47
hertonrtg, while you're on it, I think you can remove that via6656 module enable patch on master-next as well, since you saw it doesn't work on 64-bit12:52
hertonI saw it yesterday, but was already late, so sent an email about it12:53
rtgherton, was that just Quantal ?12:54
hertonrtg, no, you applied it on Precise too12:54
hertonrtg, forget, it was quantal indeed12:55
rtgherton, yep, just found the email12:55
hertonrtg, gahhh, I was looking at wrong branch, it's really on precise, commit 72b07b241819c0320c0def2376645bd27339655c12:57
hertonon master-next12:57
hertonI knew I saw it yesterday, I'm not going crazy :)12:57
rtgherton, good, 'cause I couldn't find it in Quantal.12:57
hertonrtg, yes, I think on quantal you just didn't applied in the end12:58
rtgherton, if tis driver is so bad, should we even bother with 32 bit ?12:58
hertonrtg, for me it's ok just disabling it, after all we have it disabled for some time already12:59
rtgthe only reason I looked at it is 'cause some folks were casting aspersions on us13:00
hertonin that case may be we want to enable the 32bit version, or just state the driver is broken anyway13:00
rtgI'm inclined to leave it disabled until the upstream fix is merged (and I'm not seeing anythig so far). Perhaps I'll turn it on in raring. there has been a little activity since v3.613:04
rtgherton, ^^13:05
hertonyeah, agreed13:05
rtgherton, pushed precise master-next13:13
hertonack13:15
* rtg vows not to watch the news today13:18
argesrtg, hello. can we get libncurses5-dev installed on gomeisa ?13:23
rtgarges, in a chroot or in the default host environment ?13:24
rtgarges, I'm pretty sure the chroots have it13:24
argesrtg, hmm 'fakeroot debian/rules editconfigs' seems to complain 13:25
caribourtg: just that I tried to run fakeroot debian/rules editconfigs and it complained about the missing pkg13:25
caribourtg: maybe there's a better way of doing it13:25
rtgcaribou, have you tried it from within a chroot ?13:25
rtgrtg@gomeisa:~$ dpkg -l |grep libncurses513:26
rtgii  libncurses5                      5.9-4                                   shared libraries for terminal handling13:26
rtgrtg@gomeisa:~$ dpkg -l |grep libncurses513:26
rtgii  libncurses5                      5.9-4                                   shared libraries for terminal handling13:26
caribourtg: nope, maybe that's what is missing13:26
* caribou must learn the best way to build kernels on those build servers13:27
rtgcaribou, I've got nearly every chroot within the Ubuntu hegemony installed on the buildds13:28
argescaribou, 'schroot -c quantal-amd64' then type 'fakeroot debian/rules editconfigs'13:29
argesthanks rtg 13:29
caribourtg: :) ok, I'll do that13:29

TheodorosI found an issue with the 'Quantal kernel for precise' testcase http://packages.qa.ubuntu.com/qatracker/milestones/223/builds/25321/testcases17:36
TheodorosRunning with the quantal kernel from the ppa causes panics and coredumps in samba17:37
apwTheodoros, sounds bad, could you file a bug and attach any logs you have17:43
apw(and let us know the number)17:43
Theodorossure17:44
TheodorosI was wondering if 3.5.0-18.29 was going to hit the PPA/repositories so I could test that17:44
TheodorosSince it recently left proposed in quantal17:44
apwTheodoros, it is in precise-proposed now for testing17:47
TheodorosOkay, I'll look into that later17:47
apwi would imagine the one in the x-swat PPA will be out of date by now17:48

balloonsogasawara, or perhaps someone else :-), can you tell me what the kernel teams plans for the 12.10 kernel stack on 12.04? Will you continue targetting and testing on 12.10? Is it going to be a 3.5.X kernel for sure?18:12
balloonsI guess I'm just asking which series will be targeted by this: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat/+archive/q-lts-backport/18:13
bjfballoons, there was this UDS thing where we discussed all that :-)18:22
balloonsbjf, I'm sure there was :-) I'm happy to look @ a blueprint if needed18:23
balloonssorry I missed the discussion!18:23
bjfballoons, there is a quantal lts-hwe kernel for precise18:23
bjfballoons, quantal is 3.518:24
bjfballoons, there will be a raring lts-hwe kernel for precise (raring will be 3.8)18:24
* rtg grinds through the endless LKML thread "[RFC] Second attempt at kernel secure boot support"18:39
bjfballoons, did that answer your question?18:43
balloonsbjf, yes, I saw the new raring upload18:44
balloonsso that menas you will keep going with the quantal lts, releasing 3.5.. and the next hwe will be on the raring kernel via 3.818:44
balloonsthe quantal hwe still dropping in december for 12.04.2?18:44
bjfballoons, quantal-lts is officially supported for the length of support for quantal18:45
bjfballoons, that is true for all non-lts kernels (after 14.04 that may change)18:46
bjfballoons, yes on the point release18:46
balloonsbjf, sorry  I mean to say.. the quantal-lts hwe stack will enter precise at 12.04.218:46
balloonsand raring will be for 12.04.3 or 12.04.4?18:46
bjfballoons, whatever the schedule says :-)18:46
balloonsfair enough :-)18:47
balloonsthanks for your help18:47
