The installer is still not matching the latest kernel, I thought it was going to be updated soon... Is there an ETA on that? [13:14] apw: smb: I have just realised that /etc/default/grub.d/kexec-tools.cfg is the script responsible for setting up crashkernel= as a boot argument [13:14] apw: smb: any reason for that ? this is a requirement for kdump-tools, not kexec itself [13:26] thank god we are doing good QA on our flagship software [13:39] caribou, sounds like it is missplaced at best [13:40] apw: kdump-tools is not the only reverse depends of kexec-tools so that variable may be defined for things that have nothing to do with crashkernel [13:41] (petitboot & pxe-kexec) [13:41] caribou, i suppose... all it does is "make a hole in ram" so it could be used by other things for the same side-effect [13:42] apw: yes, it has minimal impact [13:42] apw: maybe it is worth moving it to kdump-tools package [13:42] apw: plus this is Ubuntu specific [13:46] Yeah, guess a misnomer from times when all was mushed together [13:47] caribou, presumably debian has to have handling for that cmdline thing as well tho ? [13:47] where do they do it? [13:47] apw: nope, it is a manual addition to /etc/default/grub documented in the README [13:48] caribou, oh right, so we can move it to whever it makes most sense and then upstream it to debian :) [13:48] apw: there is on linux-crashdump metapackage on debian [13:48] iep [13:48] yep [13:49] anyhow very likely we put it in kexec tools because it _is_ related to kexec tools ... [13:49] so it might make sense there really, because you have kexec --crash or whatever to use it don't you [13:49] apw: true [13:50] apw: I was looking at LP: #1318111 [13:50] Launchpad bug 1318111 in kexec-tools (Ubuntu) "Adds more and more copies of ‘crashkernel=384M-:128M’ in /etc/default/grub when upgrading or reinstalling grub-pc" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1318111 [13:54] apw, thats what I meant with mushed together... [13:55] oh that is very broken, sigh [14:33] caribou, i think there is a fix for that in mdadm package where Laney fixed a "similar" bug. [14:34] xnox: mdadm ??? oh, maybe a more generic fix [14:34] xnox: that would explain why I can no longer reproduce it [14:34] I'll fetch the source [14:34] caribou, well, it's a bit tricky. grub.d hooks can readd things over and over and over again. there was a bug in the way mdadm was doing it. [14:35] there was a feedback loop and it depended on how many kernels one was generating the initramfs for.... [14:35] so try to have multiple kernels installed and have update-grub run across them all or some such. [14:36] xnox: yeah, that's what I'm testing atm [14:37] xnox: lp: #1465567 [14:37] Launchpad bug 1465567 in mdadm (Ubuntu Vivid) "Kernel panic - not syncing: Too many boot init vars at `nomdmonddf'" [Undecided,Fix released] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1465567 [14:53] http://paste.ubuntu.com/13576380/ [14:54] does that stack trace look important ? [14:54] root fs got remounted read only and i'm just going to reboot. [14:54] the reason i ask if it looks important is that its quite possible that the underlying disk in this vmware system is foobarred. [14:55] (the provider has done that before, so if it smells like that I wont open a bug).

[20:07] we do try and avoid releasing on friday so we acoid breaking people at the weekend [20:22] apw: was the reason 4.2.0-19 wasn't released due to regressions found, or because of the holidays? just eager for 4.2.0-19 as it fixes as critical NVMe + suspend issue :) [21:21] apw: BTW, this is the specific fix we're waiting for - http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-wily.git/commit/?h=master-next&id=babbf7db6d39d809ae132394f1196463ef118ca0 [21:22] without it, suspend/resume is broken on UEFI systems with NVMe drives (and UEFI is, AFAIK, required to work with NVMe drives at all) [22:04] sdeziel: bjf is looking for someone who can test fixes [22:04] bjf: I'm ready to test when you are [22:05] sdeziel, thanks, jsalisbury ^ [22:05] sdeziel, are we talking Trusty? [22:06] bjf: yes, I can test both 3.13 and 3.16 on trusty [22:06] sdeziel, thanks [22:25] sdeziel, we've duplicated it here. i don't think we'll need you [22:25] bjf: OK, I'm still available if you think I can help [22:25] thanks for looking into this [22:26] sdeziel, we'll probably want you to test as soon as we've identified the bad commit but that might take a bit [22:26] bjf: OK, no problem [22:27] bjf: I didn't bisect it myself but looking at the changelog, "fib_rules: fix fib rule dumps across multiple skbs" seems like a potential culprit === bladernr` is now known as bladernr
