caribouIs there issues with doing a bisect b/w 3.11 & 3.13 kernels ?09:53
caribouI mean will a bisection work between 11 & 13 ?09:53
smbFor mainline/upstream: maybe. 09:55
caribousmb: yeah, it's for the mainline09:57
smbcaribou, It probably works but can't you just go for a mainline 3.12 manually and then decide09:58
smb?09:58
smb(which is what bisect would probably do anyways)09:58
caribousmb: yeah, that would be better indeed09:58
caribousmb: thanks, will do that09:59
smbcaribou, I usually take the mainline builds as first approximation (the RCs, too)09:59
smbUnfortunately most of the time its in -RC109:59
smbBut at least that reduces your bisect to between last release and next -rc109:59
smbcking, apw, Btw, I just happened to stumble over "[PATCH V2] Change ACPI IPMI support to "default y"" on the acpi mailing list today. It will not be a stable change but maybe its worth thinking about it for T anyway...10:04
ckingsmb, thanks for that, I'll look at that later today10:04
smbcking, ok. To me it looks sensible enough. But its always better to have a second opinion10:06
smb;)10:06
ckingit certainly looks sane to me10:09
apwsmb, where did you stumble over that, it has to be old10:37
smbapw, on the acpi-devel mailing list and for me it looks to be sent yesterday around 5pm10:38
apwoh missread what you said, thought you were saying it was mine10:38
smbNo, no. Not at all10:38
apwsmb, ok we have all of those =m so at least they exist10:41
apwmjg59, does your latest patch for the IPMI bits imply you can need them before it is possible to load modules10:42
hvn2hi, I have a question on configuring the kernel11:14
hvn2I need to set the UART for debugging purpose, and that can be done using setting CONFIG_OMAP_LL_DEBUG_UARTx=y...but I can't find this option.11:15
apwhvn2, i cannot find anything which even smells similar to that in any of the kernels i am looking at ehre, no13:38
apwwhat makes you think you need to set that, ie. what docs are you reading13:38
dslrhi, i am on ubuntu and i would like to build my current kernel from source.  my machine has version 3.2.0-41-generic on it. so i tried apt-get source linux-image-`(uname -r)`. but this downloads the original kernel source and 3.2.0, and then patches it to a version ahead of -41-.  it patches it to version -46-, is there any way to get the source for exact same kernel version?13:42

apwdslr, the source for older versions of the kernel are not in the archive, you can get them from either the +source page for linux or from our git repository14:08
apwhttps://launchpad.net/ubuntu/precise/+source/linux/3.2.0-41.66 for that _very_ old version you are running14:10
dslrapw: thanks.  yeah i know it is quite old version.  have to live with it. :)14:19
apwdslr, dare i ask why you cannot run the latest14:21
hvn2apw: from what I find about current kernels, it's completely gone. Most likely due to the not-use of the legacy uart.14:22
dslrapw: work related, it is not my machine and we have dependencies on plenty of other source code that will have to be upgraded.14:23
caribouI have a DL460g8 where kdump doesn't work (kernel seems to hang before init get called). We tested with 3.13 mainline + kdump-tools and it works fine14:34
caribounow we will test with the ubuntu specific 3.13 from Trusty to see if it continues to work.14:35
caribouthen we want to do a bisection. should we do the bisect with the mainline kernels or with the ubuntu specific ?14:35
caribougiven that the ubuntu specific 3.13 does work14:35
caribouotherwise, the delta will be b/w ubuntu 3.13 & mainline 3.1314:36
caribouam I making any sense ?14:36
rtgcaribou, you really want to bisect the mainline kernel 'cause the Ubuntu kernel commit history is not linear14:37
caribourtg: this is what I wanted to know, thanks rtg 14:38
caribourtg: so it it worth to test the Ubuntu specific 3.13 then to see if kdump still works ?14:39
caribourtg: if the delta is b/w ubuntu 3.13 & mainline 3.13 is it possible to bisect ?14:40
rtgcaribou, that bisect might be more difficult because of packaging and ABI issues. if Ubuntu 3.13 doesn't work, then maybe we can just eyeball the Ubuntu specific code commits.14:52
caribourtg: no, 3.13 mainline works fine, it's either b/w 3.11 & 3.12 or b/w 3.12 & 3.13 we need do to one last test to narrow it down14:53
caribourtg: i.e. test with 3.12 mainline14:54
caribourtg: ah, sorry just realized you were talking about Ubuntu 3.1314:54
caribourtg: but I'll remember the eyeball part :-)14:55
rtgcaribou, the other big difference is that Ubuntu 3.13 is based on stable 3.13.3 whereas mainline is vanilla 3.13 (I think). apw could answer that for sure.14:56
mjg59apw: It's certainly possible16:07
mjg59apw: Any _INI method could refer to an IPMI opregion16:08
manjoppisati, ping 16:13
manjoppisati, around asquare atriangle ? 16:14
gQuigsI'm trying to pick the best time for customers to try out 14.04 pre-release for testing purposes.  If we might end up going with the 3.14 kernel I'd prefer to wait for that to land.  16:17
gQuigsI'd hope to do something before the Final Beta.  Any suggestions?16:19
rtggQuigs, we are definitely releasing 14.04 with a 3.13 kernel.16:22
gQuigsrtg: thanks!  Then I'm thinking about suggesting customer testing around March1st, any objections? 16:25
rtggQuigs, it seems pretty stable right now, so March 1 ought to be fine.16:27
gQuigsrtg: awesome, thanks16:28
ppisatimanjo: no16:32
manjoppisati, hello, you remember we put in a one line patch to saucy to fix serial console on guest iamges? there is supposedly a patch landing upstream that fixes that 16:34
ppisatimanjo: yep, can you point me to the new patch?16:34
manjoyes I will .. just wanted to give you a heads up that that is happening 16:35

RoyKhi all. I have eth0 on int 19, and all interrupts are processed by core0, which is getting rather hot with >10k interrupts/s. I've set smp_affinity to 0f, having 4 cores, but it's still stuck at core 0. any idea why?17:01
apwRoyK, it may be only connected to that one cpu18:03
RoyKapw: problem is, it works if I pin it to another cpu, but if I set affinity to f (4 cores), it stays at core018:06
rtgisn't that what it is supposed to do ? keep the caches populated ?18:08
RoyKwell, when one core is at 95%+, it should move those interrupts imho18:09
RoyKrtg: also, by default it seems to pin both NICs on core018:10
argessforshee: hey18:37
argessforshee: I'm seeing this again: http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/6961321/18:37
argeslooks like this https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6905118:39
ubot2`bugzilla.kernel.org bug 69051 in network-wireless "iwlwifi 0000:01:00.0: fail to flush all tx fifo queues Q 2" [Normal,New]18:39
sforsheearges: what kernel/firmware versions?19:34
argessforshee: 3.13.0-8-generic / Centrino Wireless-N 1000 [Condor Peak]  19:35
argessforshee: i'll install 3.14 and see how that works19:44
sforsheearges: what about the firmware? That was updated not too long ago to adress some firmware issues19:45
argeslinux-firmware 1.12419:47
sforsheearges: okay, that should have the new firmware19:58
sforsheearges: so I do see people saying that loading iwlwifi with 11n_disable=1 gets rid of it, and intel has gone so far as sending a patch recently to make that the default due to firmware issues20:06
sforsheeso I'm wondering if this falls into the category of firmware issues that aren't going to be fixed20:07
