ogasawarartg:  https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1338919 .  Patch is referenced in comment #11.  Do you want to wait till that hits 3.18 or queue it now before utopic kernel freeze so we don't have SRU paperwork.13:39
ubot5Launchpad bug 1338919 in linux (Ubuntu) "[F06A]The information - CPU cores is incorrect in Ubuntu14.04 cpuinfo." [Medium,Triaged]13:39
rtgogasawara, was just test building, then gonna run it on a couple of NUMA platforms13:40
ogasawarartg: ack13:40
rtgogasawara, its pushed to Utopic master-next13:40
ogasawarartg: ah cool, I hadn't looked13:40
rtgogasawara, seconds ago13:41
ogasawarajsalisbury: pending rtg's smoke testing in utopic, could you also crank out a Trusty test kernel with that patch too and work with catbus1 (ie Samantha) to reach out to her contacts for testing on Trusty.13:47
ogasawarajsalisbury: and we'll give you the honors of the Trusty SRU :)13:47
jsalisburyogasawara, will do14:32
ogasawarartg, apw:  https://lkml.org/lkml/2014/9/26/56814:36
rtgogasawara, debian.master/config/config.common.ubuntu:# CONFIG_DMA_CMA is not set14:38
rtgwe disabled it for both Trusty and Utopic14:38
ogasawarartg: hrm, I see it on for Trusty14:40
* ogasawara makes sure I'm in the right repo and branch14:40
rtgme too14:40
rtgdang, you're right14:41
ogasawarartg: but it does look like it is off in Utopic14:41
ogasawaraeven if the annotation file suggests otherwise14:41
rtgyup14:41
rtgogasawara, fixed now14:42
rtgI'll SRU that config for trusty14:43
ogasawarartg: ack, thanks14:43
ogasawarartg: I'll respond to that thread as well14:43
* apw notes rtg has this under control ...14:44
jsalisburyogasawara, rtg, there was a bug on CONFIG_DMA_CMA: bug 136226114:46
ubot5bug 1362261 in linux (Ubuntu Trusty) "CONFIG_DMA_CMA causes ttm performance problems/hangs" [Medium,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/136226114:46
rtgjsalisbury, thanks, I was just going to look for that14:46
jsalisburyrtg, I was going to do a Trusty SRU for that bug, but I didn't get definitive test results yet.14:49
rtgjsalisbury, It seems nobody has complained about Trusty. Now that I'm remembering this bug a little more, I'm not as inclined to change it for Trusty.14:50
rtgogasawara, ^^14:50
ogasawarartg: ack14:51
jsalisburyrtg, yeah14:51
rtgI mean, it ain't broke, so lets not fix better.14:51
rtgfix it better*14:51
ogasawarajsalisbury: certainly based on the feedback, it does not seem to be impacting Trusty reporters of that bug14:51
jsalisburyogasawara, agreed14:52
ogasawarartg, jsalisbury: so reading that a little more, the guys not seeing issues on Trusty is with readeon, I wonder if it would manifest with other drivers15:00
rtgogasawara, perhaps, but nobody is complaining regardless.15:01
rtgogasawara, by the way, the patch for http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1338919 appears to not have caused any regressions that I can see.15:03
ubot5Launchpad bug 1338919 in linux (Ubuntu Utopic) "[F06A]The information - CPU cores is incorrect in Ubuntu14.04 cpuinfo." [Medium,Fix committed]15:03
ogasawarartg: ack, thanks15:03
jsalisburyogasawara, I didn't read through that entire LKML tread you mentioned.  The bug is for a performance issue, is that what they are talking about on LKML as well?15:04
ogasawarajsalisbury: yep15:04
jsalisburyahh, ok15:04
jsalisburyrtg, did you have any issue building the patch for bug 1338919 against Utopic?  It failed to build against Trusty for me, but I'm digging into why15:49

rtgjsalisbury, nope, worked fine. clean cherry-pick15:50
jsalisburyrtg, ok, thanks.  I'll dig as to why if failed15:50

dirbaioHello22:49
dirbaioI'm building some kernels following the instructions here:22:49
dirbaiohttp://kernel-handbook.alioth.debian.org/ch-common-tasks.html22:49
dirbaiosection 4.522:49
dirbaioWorks fine, the resulting kernels install fine and boot22:49
dirbaiothe problem is building the deb packages is horribly slow22:50
dirbaiomuch slower than compilation itself22:50
dirbaioit's been "building package linux-image..." for more than 20 minutes now22:50
dirbaiois this normal? Is there any trick to make it faster?22:50
dirbaiocompilation takes around 15min for me22:51
dirbaiookay, turns out it's my fault23:37
dirbaiodisabling DEBUG_INFO makes it reasonably fast now23:37
dirbaiostill interested in ways of making it faster though :)23:37
dirbaioit boots23:41
dirbaio:D23:41
