* smb grumbles about unhelpful service providers07:58

ckingsmb, still no luck?09:15
smbcking, nope (except tethering)09:16
ckingsmb, did they give you any idea when you would get it fixed?09:16
smbcking, No, that would be far too helpful. Things change between, this can take days to we don't think we have an issue09:17
ckingsigh09:18
ckingthat's really awful09:18
smbOne of the main issues is that it is *impossible* to actually talk to any technical staff09:18

ckingsmb, quality service provision :-/09:32

smbcking, Yeah, probably even ISO certified (keep technical staff firewalled behind a call center)09:39
v41Is the linux-generic-lts-saucy package (version 3.11.0.13.12) based upon mainline kernel 3.11.3 or 3.11.5+ ? The reason for asking is that some critical btrfs filesystem bugs in 3.11.3 have been fixed in 3.11.5 .  I checked the ubuntu-to-mainline-kernel-version-mapping-page, but it doesn't list version 3.11.0.13.12.10:32
xnoxv41: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/3.11.0-13.20 lists a few bug fixes for btrfs.11:10
smbIF it is that linux-image version it should be based on 3.11.611:13
v41xnox:  yes, the kernel-version-mapping page shows that 3.11.0-13.20 is based upon 3.11.6, so it contains the btrfs fixes.  But linux-generic-lts-saucy is based upon an earlier version, 3.11.0.13.1211:13
smbThat version number looks like the one from a meta package11:13
v41smb:  Thankyou, that clears up the problem.  As you suggested, the meta package depends upon linux-image version 3.11.0-13.20 .   I ought to have checked this before asking the question.  (Headslap).11:17
smb-> 3.11.0-13.20~precise211:17

smbRight :)11:17

stgraberapw: around?15:26
stgraberapw: I'm looking at tweaking our d-i armhf images a bit and one thing that'd help quite a bit there is for all the existing .dtb to be shipped in the udeb15:26
ppisatistgraber: nope, is off now15:28
stgraberppisati: ok, anyway, I think I've got a patch that should do the trick, I'll send that to the list asking if there may also be a way to avoid having those hardcoded in two places15:29
stgraberppisati: as apparently just having the dtb enabled in the kernel config isn't enough, they also need to be added to rules.d/armhf.mk to actually show up in the udeb15:29
rtgstgraber, IIRC there is a firmware udeb where the DTBs sholdgo.15:36
rtgshould go*15:36
stgraberrtg: so all the current ones appear to be in the kernel-image udeb15:42
stgraberrtg: I can't find a generic firmware udeb, the only ones I see come from the linux-firmware source15:43
rtgstgraber, which kind of makes sense (that they are in the kernel image udeb). lemme refresh my memory about firmware.15:44
jsalisburyjodh, Hey James, when you have a chance, can you test the kernel posted in bug 1247769 I can send that patch to the mailing list if you confirm it fixes the bug.16:27
ubot2Launchpad bug 1247769 in linux (Ubuntu Trusty) "kernel headers do not define OVERLAYFS_SUPER_MAGIC " [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/124776916:27
jodhjsalisbury: currently working on a release (I can look on Monday), but can't that just be tested by someone simply grepping for OVERLAYFS_SUPER_MAGIC in the appropriate header?16:29
jsalisburyjodh, cool, thanks.  Just like to have to bug reporter test to confirm it fixes the problem.16:31

ppisatieither i'm doing somthing wrong or upstream u-boot is broken WRT omap3/am335x18:38
ppisatiand with that said, /me call it a day/week18:38
ppisatiEOW18:38
stgraberrtg: any idea when these two extra dtb will land in the archive? It's currently blocking a d-i change I'm preparing.18:44
rtgstgraber, I assume you're targeting trusty ? noly one of them is supported for Saucy.18:45
rtgonly*18:45
stgraberrtg: yeah, I only care about trusty18:45
rtgstgraber, gimme a bit. I can get it uploaded today.18:45
stgraberrtg: I'm reworking the way we generate armhf d-i images to be much faster and use the upstream u-boot with the generic kernel for all boards using device-tree18:45
stgraberrtg: awesome, thanks!18:45
rtgstgraber, I was messing with generating the udeb from the DTB list, but I'll just postpone that for now18:46
rtgtoo many distractions right now18:46
stgraberyeah, I think it'd be good to get there eventually so adding support for extra boards isn't nearly as painful, but for now I mostly care about getting my wandboard be installable ;)18:47
infinitystgraber: Selfish. ;)18:53
rtgstgraber, uploaded trusty with your DTB patch (somewhat modified)20:08
stgraberrtg: thanks!20:09
stgraberrtg: oh I see, I guess it works better when applied to the right place ;)20:11
rtgstgraber, yup20:11
infinityCONFIG_OABI_COMPAT=n20:18
infinityThat was seriously not set before?20:18
rtginfinity, nope, kees pointed it out20:19
rtgI hate xchat20:20
infinityrtg: I mean, it's mostly a no-op on the userspace side, since we tore OABI (completely) out of glibc a couple of releases back.20:20
infinityBut still.  Wha?20:20
rtgthere are a zillion config options. I'm not surprised we missed this one for awhile20:21
infinityrtg: Yeah, I'm just surprised it was ever on in the first place, since our userspace has been EABI from day one.20:23
infinityThough, maybe someone made an argument for the compat long ago.20:23
rtgI likely inherited it from somewhere and didn't notice.20:24
keesinfinity, rtg: it's been "default y" in mainline, so that's probably why. it does add syscall overhead to have built in. anyway, I sent a patch to "default n" it in mainline...21:40
rtgkees, confused for a sec. I was still thinking CONFIG_HAVE_ARCH_SECCOMP_FILTER=y21:41
infinitykees: Yeah, it should definitely default to n, given the lack of userspace support these days.21:42
keesrtg: ah, yeah, no, I meant CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT. :)22:02
keesrtg: and sorry about the glitch on the seccomp patch. It seems I totally screwed up my "master" checkout months ago and didn't notice "git pull" was doing merges :(22:03
keesrtg: I've sent a pull request now with the two missing upstream patches too.22:03
rtgkees, cool22:03
rtgthanks22:03
keesrtg: np, sorry for wasting a build :(22:08
rtgkees, make M=kernel takes very little time22:09
keesheh, okay, whew :)22:09
keesI've also forgotten the joys of 64-way builds. first world problem of now having ONLY 32-way :)22:10
rtgkees, oh, I'm doing this on a Calxeda. I wanted to make sure the cross compile wasn't the issue.22:10
keesah! okay.22:11
