| tjaalton | I'm debugging a weird swap issue on my main desktop, where the swap is fully allocated not long after a fresh reboot though smem shows it's not the apps using it | 12:31 |
|---|---|---|
| tjaalton | so I wonder if btrfs is to blame, I have a four disk raid on it | 12:31 |
| tjaalton | swapoff takes an eternity, making shutdown really slow | 12:32 |
| tjaalton | running vivid | 12:32 |
| tjaalton | but it was the same on trusty too | 12:32 |
| tjaalton | the box has 16GB of ram, and usually ~10G is for cache | 12:33 |
| tjaalton | so there's plenty of ram to use | 12:33 |
| tjaalton | swap is only 4G, running swapoff now and it's halfway done and cache amount has not changed | 12:34 |
| tjaalton | um, actually it increased, free ram is constantly around ~160M | 12:41 |
| tjaalton | guess I'm better off without swap, disabled it for now.. | 12:41 |
| nemo | So... Nexia, someone who plays the game I help dev (Hedgewars) has a card that is an rt5390 | 14:18 |
| nemo | When he reluctantly reboots to ubuntu from Windows, he gets disconnected all the time | 14:18 |
| nemo | I found several bugs and forum threads from 2013 indicating a patch exists that fixes the 64 bit support in the driver... | 14:18 |
| nemo | https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1173759/comments/14 for example | 14:18 |
| ubot5 | Launchpad bug 1173759 in linux (Ubuntu) "Ubuntu 13.04 can detect wi-fi but can't connect" [Low,Expired] | 14:18 |
| nemo | (that link is corrupted btw) | 14:18 |
| nemo | the patch link is good though, so I'm hoping it works on ubuntu's version of the driver | 14:19 |
| nemo | so... I was wondering. since he clearly has a semi-functional card now in 2013, did this patch never make it upstream? | 14:19 |
| nemo | or is it only an incomplete fix? | 14:19 |
| nemo | BTW, all the bugs I could find in launchpad were closed for various reasons like "inactivity" or "the laptop you happened to report this against was recalled (even though the card is common enough)" | 14:20 |
| nemo | er. s/now in 2013/now in 2015/ | 14:34 |
| Aram | Hi: | 15:06 |
| Aram | dpkg-deb: building package `linux-image-3.19.0-rc6-uprobes-dbg' in `../linux-image-3.19.0-rc6-uprobes-dbg_3.19.0-rc6-uprobes-1_arm64.deb'. | 15:06 |
| Aram | It's been 40 minutes now and it's not finished. There doesn't seem to be any file I/O on the generated file. Is it stuck? What to do? | 15:06 |
| Aram | Thanks. | 15:06 |
| Aram | dpkg-deb uses 100% CPU. | 15:08 |
| Aram | straceing it looks liek it's doing lots of 4k reads and writes | 15:09 |
| Aram | oh, it either finished or my attempts to debug it killed it | 15:09 |
| Aram | it generated a 330MB file | 15:10 |
| data | hi, did something in the build process change between 3.16.0-28 and -29? My servers do not boot with -29 due to not being able to mount the rootfs, and the busybox rescue does not have the necessary drivers to support iDRAC or a USB keyboard | 15:11 |
| Aram | ok, so my arm64 machine does not boto with this kernel | 15:36 |
| Aram | boot | 15:36 |
| Aram | http://sprunge.us/OfFV | 15:36 |
| Aram | I don't see any output from the kernel | 15:36 |

| apw | data, not knowingly | 22:18 |
| apw | nemo, if someone can test, then you should (sadly) file a new bug with "ubuntu-bug linux" and add the info on the patch to that, and we can get someone to build a test kernel for it. do paste the new bug number here. | 22:19 |
| apw | Aram, no idea what that kernel source is, nor whether i would expect it to boot ubuntu | 22:19 |
| Aram | it's an experimental patch that implemented uprobes on arm64, but that is not very relevant as I tried with vanilla kernel too, and that doesn't boot either on this machine. | 22:21 |
| Aram | and that boot log is complete, there is no kernel output at all. | 22:22 |
| Aram | I also tried earlycon= options | 22:22 |
