smbjdesfossez, Possibly those messages are not of high enough level. You could try dmesg -n <level> (level -> eg. warn|notice|info). 08:16
bjfapw, the rebuild DEP-8 test. that's going to get run all the time now for all kernel packages. is that really what we want?16:20
bjfapw, i know why that test exists, i'm just wondering why it's in the kernel. if it's to ensure that new toolchain packages properly build the kernel why isn't there a test in the toolchain packages for it rather than the kernel?16:21
apwbjf, it is in there because it is the kernel test one wants to run when any of the packages we depend on, changes16:24
apwbjf, unfortuanatly there is no way to know you are testing for "me" rather than a "dependancy"16:24
apwbjf, which is what we would really want ...16:25
bjfapw, yeah16:25
apwbjf, i think there was a proposed way to tell, which would let one work it out16:25
bjfapw, so it's adding multiple hrs. to the testing and when we start running these on multiple archs is going to get worse16:26
bjfapw, i guess if it is a problem maybe someone will fix it so it only runs when we want rather than all the time16:28
apwbjf, yeah i cannot deny it is stupid, just asking pitti ritht now if there is a way16:28
apwbjf, is this in britney testing or in "bjf" testing btw16:31
bjfapw, new britney testing that CI is adding16:32
apwbjf, ok so official, not runnig somewhere where we get to help out16:32
apwto say UNIT_TESTING_FOR_KERNEL and let that short circuit it16:32
bjfapw, correct.16:32
apwbjf, i am getting the "it doesn't know, and it is all very hard" but i do struggle to say why it doesn't know myself16:34
infinityapw: DEP-8 doesn't know why a test was triggered, just that you decided to run some tests.  The fix belongs one layer above that, I suspect.16:44
infinityapw: ie: we should only run the test under certain circumstances, but the test itself can't know that, it's the framework calling it (adt-britney, whatever) that needs to be smarter.16:44
apwinfinity, well likley, though it is odd it isn't parameterised with why it is being run16:45
infinityapw: That implies more intelligence than DEP-8 is meant to have.  It should be entirely framework agnostic.16:45
infinityapw: You can run tests by hand, you can write infra that runs all your tests in a loop, you can trigger them for $reasons, none of that matters to the tests.16:45
apwyeah, and i'd be cool with the reason it ran being "run by hand" or "none"16:46
cyphermoxjsalisbury: hey, just curious if you had found anything about bug 135968917:01
ubot5bug 1359689 in plymouth (Ubuntu) "cryptsetup password prompt not shown" [High,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/135968917:01
jsalisburycyphermox, yes, I backported commits abd69c55d and 144ecb97c.  I should post a link in the bug with a test kernel shortly.17:03
cyphermoxok17:03
cyphermoxthanks :)17:03
jsalisburycyphermox, my test kernel build failed, so I just need to fix up my backports a bit.17:05
