tyhickshello!18:10
tyhickspsivaa pointed me to an SRU kernel test failure in one of the security tests18:11
tyhicksafter looking into it, it really has nothing to do with the security test and is caused by an ipv4 sysctl change18:12
tyhickspsivaa opened a bug and I commented on it with what I found18:12
tyhickssee bug #132647318:12
ubot5bug 1326473 in linux (Ubuntu) "No /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies present with 2.6.32-61-generic #123 in -proposed" [Undecided,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/132647318:12
tyhicksI assume that someone on the kernel team will take over from here?18:13
bjfkamal, can you jump on ^ ?18:19
apwhow on earth would we lose tcp_syncookies of all things in a stable update18:39
tyhicksapw: because a change to another ipv4 sysctl entry ended up causing problems18:43
tyhicksapw: I couldn't resist looking into it a little more and gave some more analysis in the bug18:44
* tyhicks is really done with it now :)18:44
henrixtyhicks: yeah, i took a quick look and your analysis makes perfect sense ;)18:50
henrixtyhicks: it may be that the *other* stack trace you see is caused by a similar commit... but i'll take a closer look at it after dinner18:51
tyhickshenrix: yeah, I was curious about the 2nd trace but didn't look at it18:51
henrixtyhicks: there's a similar commit for that sysctl ;)18:51
tyhicksaha :)18:52
* henrix -> dinner18:52
apwheh .. 19:05
henrixtyhicks: i confirm that reverting lucid commits 2dc19ed6338a27a78c7a9d47d311ae4ac5302c83 and d77028ffe1a3d6eb5f57c5e5ea87cbfc4ee05eb1 make the 2 stack dumps go away ;)20:18
henrixtyhicks: also, i can see the /proc/sys/net/ipv4/tcp_syncookies again20:18
tyhickshenrix: good to know :)20:19
henrixbjf: tyhicks has proposed a (SAUCE?) patch in bug #1326473.  i can give it a quick try or i can start respinning lucid with the 2 reverts (which is more according to the usual policy, i believe)20:20

bjfhenrix, ogasawara is working on it as well20:21
henrixbjf: oh, ok20:21
bjfhenrix, sounds like you are already able to test20:21
ogasawarabjf: I say it sounds like henrix is 2 steps ahead of where I am20:21
ogasawarabjf: if he's confirmed the reverts, I'd go with that20:22
bjfogasawara, sounds like it to me also20:22
henrixogasawara: bjf: yep, its easily reproducible :)20:22
ogasawarahenrix: I'm just standing up a lucid install right now to try and reproduce20:22
ogasawarahenrix: I'll revert the 2 commits and tests here as well for good measure20:22
henrixogasawara: yeah, i had a kvm install so i just upgraded to -proposed 20:22
ogasawarabjf: but don't wait for my 2nd set of ack's, go ahead and proceed20:23
henrixbjf: ogasawara: so, do you want me to go ahead and respin?20:24
henrix(just to make sure we don't dup) :)20:24
ogasawarahenrix: I'd vote for you to do the respin, only because you be much faster at doing so than I20:26
ogasawaraI think the last time I looked at Lucid was literally back in 201020:27
henrixogasawara: heh, ok.  sure :)20:27
ogasawarahenrix: anyways, sounds like you and bjf have this sorted.  so I'll leave it in the hands of the professionals.20:28
henrixogasawara: ack20:28
henrixand thanks ;)20:28
