unimatrixoverlodHey everyone, I could use some help with this --> do to this error: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/fglrx-installer/+bug/859101    I've compiled my own kernel from kernel.org    AND    here is where i need help: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217036706:12
ubot2`Launchpad bug 859101 in fglrx-installer-updates (Ubuntu) "fglrx 2:8.881-0ubuntu2: fglrx kernel module failed to build (kernel includes at ... not found or incomplete)" [High,Confirmed]06:12
unimatrixoverlodany tips or ideas are welcome :)06:13
infinityunimatrixoverlod: If you've compiled your own kernel, only you know where the headers live, not much we can help with.06:20
infinityunimatrixoverlod: Oh, I see what you're driving at.  Well, diffing the config from your kernel and the Ubuntu one would be helpful to figure out your problem.06:24
unimatrixoverlodNice idea!! I'll look into it. thank you! the only hold up is *how* the transfer of a kernel/initrd (Ubuntu OS official installed kernel from apt-get) hands things from grub to the init runlevel 2 on boot.06:25
unimatrixoverlodmy mkinitramfs made an initramfs and boots and then stops at /scripts/local-top. I'm so close too I know it. I just have to trigger the init runlevel 2.....hmmm...06:26
unimatrixoverlodnote: the partition's are LVM but not RAID06:27
unimatrixoverlodI should say only the root partition is LVM. boot is the first partition type LINUX06:28
unimatrixoverlodthe rest of the drive is LVM06:28
infinityunimatrixoverlod: Sure, my point is that if you built a kernel lacking the right modules/support, that would be an issue.06:40
infinityunimatrixoverlod: Did you use the config from your Ubuntu kernel as a base, or start from scratch with menuconfig?06:40
infinityunimatrixoverlod: This has nothing to do with init runlevels, I'm sure, and everything to do with not being able to find your root filesystem due to lack of support for it.06:41
unimatrixoverlodfrom scratch and yes make menuconfig. I selected every entry under (i think it's found here) drivers->RAID + LVM to be compiled into the kernel06:45
unimatrixoverlodwhat's strange is the hard drive is found in /dev/sda* but /dev/mapper lists nothing but "control"06:46
unimatrixoverlodit's acting like the driver LVM support isn't installed. as you can see under grub2 i've also done "insmod lvm"06:46
infinityYou probably missed some DM options or something.06:46
infinitygrub's support isn't the issue here, it's the kernel's.06:47
unimatrixoverlodok06:47
infinitygrub's finding the kernel, loading the kernel, and then the kernel can't find your root filesystem.06:47
unimatrixoverlodcorrect06:47
unimatrixoverlodi like your idea of diff'ing to an Ubuntu kernel source and see what's missing from kernel.org make menuconfig06:48
infinityIf you have an ubuntu kernel installed, the config is in /boot for you.06:48
unimatrixoverlod(Ubuntu kernel .config that is)06:49
infinityie: /boot/config-3.11.0-4-generic06:49
unimatrixoverlodoh nice!06:49
unimatrixoverlodone sec I'll take a look06:49
unimatrixoverlodok I've posted to ubuntuforums.org link my vimdiff comparison07:03
unimatrixoverlodI have basically everything CONFIG_DM* compiled into the kernel07:03
unimatrixoverlodi've also attached my  custom .config to: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=217036707:13

rtgapw, care to respond to https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/kernel-team/2013-August/032034.html ? Personally, I don't think this is an appropriate stable patch for Lucid. Does it have implications for subsequent releases ?12:44
apwrtg looking12:45
apwrtg, the patch as attached seems to be the whole of overlayfs or something mad, but assuming it is just the bits for dcache i don't think it is really appropriate for much12:48
apwas the main issue is you have a prefix on some proc paths, which can be ameliorated by simply12:48
apwln -s / /rootfs12:49
rtgapw, works for me. please send Li a response.12:49

ppisatirtg: did you see robher's email about KVM config?15:22
rtgppisati, ah, yeah. I just kind of forgot. I'll get to it today.15:23
ppisatirtg: i've another patchset for lpae on the new claxeda hw15:23
ppisatirtg: please don't kick the build yet15:23
rtgppisati, np15:24
rtgI'll likely wait until 3.11 final for the next upload anyways15:24
robherppisati, rtg: There is a xen related patch too: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2013-August/195609.html15:26
rtgrobher, please get these patches on the k-team list so they don't get missed15:27
ppisatirobher: besides the lpae take 2 patchset, i guess i need those two too:15:29

robherrtg: ok. hopefully this one goes into 3.11 final or stable if not.15:29
ppisatirobher: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git?p=ppisati/ubuntu-saucy.git;a=commit;h=ef5e8772eadd604c9620c7137705a911e6d1af5a15:30
ppisatirobher: am i correct?15:30
robherppisati: yes. Although, I think "ARM: fix dma-mapping on LPAE" may not really be needed because our only 32-bit DMA master being used is xgmac and I think skb's and their data will only come from low mem (<1GB).15:33
ppisatirobher: so, just the sata fix, ok15:33
robherppisati: if you agree with my assertion about skbs.15:34
ppisatirobher: beware that your 'take 2' patchset on rc7 gave me this - http://paste.ubuntu.com/6040565/15:35

bjfjsalisbury, about bug 1210848 and the commit that was supposed to have fixed it .. did it fix it nor not? (should we revert the commit?)17:02

jsalisburybjf, the patch I created does fix the bug.  I blacklisted that particular model, like other models were blacklisted.  However, I submitted my patch upstream and Linus said he hates blacklists, so I'm working on a new patch.18:06
bjfjsalisbury, can we get someone to verify that bug then?18:06
jsalisburybjf, sure thing.  I'll ask the original bug report to test proposed18:07
bjfjsalisbury, thanks18:07
robherppisati: I can't reproduce the abort you see. 18:21

hallyn_when i (or a postinst :) do update-initramfs -k all -u, it skips the newest kernel, 3.11.0-4.  19:50
hallyn_That, obviously, does not lead to good times19:50
hallyn_ah, mkdir /var/lib/initramfs-tools/3.11.0-4-generic fixed it19:52
hallyn_stgraber: woohoo, i think i have a fix for the obscure racing-pidns-init-exit kernel bug19:55
