infinityapw: The trusty kernel bits I just copied from the PPA seem to lack meta adjustments for arm64.03:34
apwinfinity, hrm, that'd be my fault, will sort and upload in the am04:15
infinityapw: Cool.  No huge rush, just thought I'd point it out. :P04:40

lesshasteI would like to zero-out unused memory pages to reduce the size of VM snapshots. The hypervisor saves all non-zero pages in the snapshot, so freed, non-zero, but unused pages are stored in the snapshot when they needn't be.11:52
lesshasteis this possible?11:52
brendandbjf, hi12:18
brendandbjf, we've been whacked by some tooling issues this week that were outside of our control. how would you feel about me updating the tracking bugs tomorrow. i can go ahead with what we've got right now if you'd prefer though12:19
=== fmasi is now known as fmasi_afk
apwlesshaste, there has been some talk of it, i have not seen any actual changes to implement it, but it wouldn't be so hard i recon15:00
lesshasteapw, oh!15:02
lesshasteapw, do you happen to have  a reference to this talk?15:02
lesshasteapw, or some terms I can google15:02
apwi would look for talk about kfree and _ZERO, but otherwise i no longer recall15:05
bjfbrendand, that's fine, you have all next week as well for testing. not exactly sure what your asking me15:07
apwlesshaste, oh and KSM i think was involved.  they wanted it for the same purpose making unused pages in VMs merge i think15:08
brendandbjf, ok. usually we like to have results this week anyway15:16
bjfbrendand, usually you don't start testing until next week (the 3rd week). we started setting the cert-testing task earlier because there wasn't any real need to wait until the 3rd week15:17
bjfbrendand, so now, in the 3 week cadence, you have the 2nd and 3rd week to do your testing15:18
