| bananapie | Hello. I was told to install an 'upstream' kernel ( because of a launchpad bug ), but I really don't know what I am doing. Should I install the generic-amd64 in this folder ? http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.3-rc6-unstable/ | 00:35 |
|---|---|---|
| bananapie | I'll try it anyways | 00:37 |

| davmor2 | Hey guys query for prep for testing 16.04 I assume the kernel will be the one that allows for kernel upgrades on the running system without the need to reboot is that correct? and will we be making use of that for upgrades? finally is there any testing for this that QA would need to know about from a user perspective, or is there an easy way to tell if you have migrated to the newer kernel? | 08:22 |
| apw | davmor2, hmmm not 100% sure of the details there, i think it best if you start an email thread with ogasawara in the first instance | 08:34 |
| davmor2 | apw: yeap thanks | 08:34 |

| rtg | cmagina, dannf: re: bug #1508471 - what is the commit subject of that patch ? I thought the SAUCE patch was dropped in Wily because it was replaced by an upstream merge. | 15:00 |
| ubot5 | bug 1508471 in linux (Ubuntu) "[SRU] arm64 performance regression in wily 4.2 kernel on m400 due to dropped patch" [Undecided,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1508471 | 15:00 |
| cmagina | rtg: the merge didn't happen as it didn't land till recently, so missed the normal window | 15:01 |
| cmagina | rtg: it'll be in the 4.4 kernel, so that is a backport of those patches | 15:01 |
| rtg | huh, I sure thought I'd seen it upstream already | 15:02 |
| cmagina | Catalin acked them on Oct 6th | 15:04 |
| cmagina | They landed in linux-next a week or so later | 15:04 |
| rtg | cmagina, ok, I remember now | 15:05 |
| leitao | rtg, hi Tim. Regarding LP bug#1502982, it is in fix commited. Does it mean that it will be released in the SRU kernel in the cycle of 18-Oct through 07-Nov, correct? | 15:35 |
| rtg | leitao, yes, it should be. lemme check for sure | 15:36 |
| leitao | rtg, please. | 15:36 |
| rtg | leitao, both patches are in Ubuntu-3.19.0-32.37 which is currently staged in the kernel team testing PPA | 15:40 |
| leitao | rtg, good. Thank you | 15:40 |
| leitao | and now we have the ckt PPA built for ppc64el, which is quite good. | 15:40 |
| rtg | leitao, that isn't exactly new, is it ? | 15:41 |
| leitao | rtg, maybe 1-2 month old. | 15:42 |
| rtg | leitao, hmm, I think we've been building ppc64el in that PPA since the archive first supported it | 15:42 |
| leitao | rtg, unfortunately no. | 15:42 |
| leitao | but we are good now. | 15:42 |
| leitao | rtg, anyway, thank you for checking that | 15:43 |
| infinity | leitao: It's been built in that PPA since day 1. | 15:44 |
| infinity | leitao: That PPA always builds the same arches as the primary archive. | 15:44 |
| leitao | infinity, hey Adam. Well, maybe it was built but not put on the PPA. | 15:45 |
| infinity | leitao: You could be thinking of a different PPA. | 15:45 |
| leitao | I remember we didn't have the ckt PPA since 1-2 month ago, when I talked to Michael and he manage to get it enabled. | 15:45 |
| leitao | infinity, probably not | 15:46 |
| infinity | leitao: I assure you the ckt PPA always builds for all arches we support, since that's how we do things. | 15:46 |
| infinity | leitao: Oh. You mean the mainline "PPA", which isn't a PPA. :P | 15:46 |
| leitao | infinity, correct | 15:46 |
| infinity | leitao: Tim means the actual ckt PPA, ie: https://launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team/+archive/ubuntu/ppa/+packages | 15:46 |
| leitao | infinity, Ah, there were 2 PPAs for the ckt them. This explains the difference. | 15:47 |
| infinity | leitao: The mainline thing isn't a PPA at all, it's just got a stupid name. ;) | 15:47 |
| infinity | leitao: Hence the confusion. | 15:47 |
| rtg | I think those bits are cross-compiled as well | 15:47 |
| infinity | They are. | 15:47 |
| leitao | infinity, got it. Sometimes I fear my memory, but in this case I was pretty sure that the mainline "PPA" was not enabled for ppc64el. | 15:48 |
| leitao | infinity, didn't know they are cross compiled. | 15:48 |
| infinity | leitao: Right, it wasn't, we fixed that recently for you. | 15:48 |
| leitao | infinity, thanks for that. | 15:49 |
| infinity | leitao: Anyhow, Tim was referring to the SRU staging PPA to point to your fix, not the mainline madness. ;) | 15:49 |
| bjf | leitao, those quickly move from the ppa to -proposed ... a better testing option IMHO | 15:50 |
| leitao | bjf, agree | 15:50 |
| leitao | btw, for generic PPA, I heard we are going to have them enabled for ppc64el by the end of this week. | 15:51 |
| infinity | leitao: We're working hard to make that true. A few minor snags here and there, but it's kinda mostly working. | 15:54 |
| leitao | infinity, cool. This is going to be quite useful for us. Thank you! | 15:54 |
| infinity | Quite useful for a lot of people. ;) | 15:55 |
| infinity | And then arm64 and armhf, and then s390x. | 15:55 |
| infinity | Then we take over the world. | 15:55 |
| infinity | Ish. | 15:55 |
| leitao | infinity, yes, but I usually receive a lot of request for quick fixes, we can start using PPA for those requests. | 15:56 |

| bananapie | Hello. I filed a bug for a kernel/driver issue. I have found another issue in Launchpad that seems to be the same as mine. But the Kernel bug reporting etiquette said I shouldn't post to other people's tickets, what is the correct way of raising awareness of the possible relationship between the tickets? | 20:29 |
| apw | bananapie, you could simply mention in each bug that the other bug seems related | 20:30 |
| bananapie | Ok. Thanks :) | 20:30 |

| thell | I've manually selected the previous in grub, but was wondering if anyone else is experiencing issues... | 22:34 |
