xnoxapw, looking at the dumps of both our and rhel kernel images, it would appear that both are compressed, but somehow the offset where that begins is like miles further down the binary for ubuntu vs others.09:31
xnoxhowever not that dissimilar to debian with 10.3 MB09:32
caribouIs there a way to trigger a rebuild of initrd.img for each installed kernel ?10:34
caribouapw: arges has found an issue with kdump-tools when it is installed on system with more than one kernel package present10:35
caribouapw: smaller initrd.img for kdump-tools will only be built for the current running kernel, not all the installed kernels10:35
apwcaribou, yeah you want to build but not rebuild them i guess10:41
apwcaribou, against all kernels10:41
caribouyeah, build them10:41
caribouapw: right now, the trigger will execute only for the current kernel10:41
apwyeah that does (in hindsight) seem flawed, bah10:42
caribouapw: maybe kdump-config should be responsible for building it if it doesn't find the proper file in /usr/lib/kdump10:47
apwcaribou, that isn't unreasonable, though would it delay boot ?  it should of course be rare and you definatly want the thing if you are asking to use it10:49
caribouapw: yes it would. That's why I would rather have that done when we install the package10:50
apwtricky10:51
caribouapw: I had an enhancement for kdump-config to be able to correctly set symlinks for a kernel version given as an option10:55
caribousomething like kdump-config symlink {version}10:55
caribouI could add a check that would build the file if it is missing. This would be a manual operation but would give the chance to fix the problem10:55
apwyeah, that is also pretty good10:56
caribouI'm not a fan of delaying the boot for that10:57
apwright makes sense10:57
caribouapw: ok, I'll look into that, thanks!10:57
apwcool10:57
seanvkThe mainline-crack 4.4 and 4.5rcx kernels seem to be missing NVME support that exists in 4.3.  Anyway just FYI.  I've a Dell XPS 13 with NVME.  Noted that when installing 16.04 and attempting to use the newer kernels from mainline-crack18:34
apwseanvk, hmmm, i'd expect 4.4. to work because that is now our -proposed kernel18:35
seanvkAh no, you are right apw 4.4 has it18:37
seanvkMeant 4.5 only18:37
seanvkmaybe not - RC1 had it but the v4.4-wily 0003 patch does not18:38
seanvkhttp://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.4-wily/0003-configs-based-on-Ubuntu-4.4.0-0.10.patch18:38
apw4.4-rc1 was built against a 4.3 config, 4.4 final was built against a 4.4 (and recent) config18:40
apwso i am supprised it is not the other way round18:40
apwseanvk, though there is a 4.4 kernel in -proposed which i am told does work with nvme18:42
seanvkAh, thanks, I will look there.18:43
seanvkI'm in the process of building my own from the 4.3 config18:43
smoserapw, what woudl produce /etc/kernel.conf ? and did you mean /etc/kernel-img.conf ?20:47
apwsmoser, i think that is part of an image iirc20:50
apwsmoser, as in it is in the live images and propogated onto your system20:50
apwwhich is an oddity now i think about it20:50
smoserapw, do you have other ideas ?21:06
smoserthe file is there.21:06
apwsmoser, whats in it ...22:09
apwsmoser, does it request the use of symlinks, and ... pastebin it22:09
smoserdiagnosis in that bug now.22:11
apwthe case is unimportant to the option valyue22:14
apwsmoser, also how are these chroots made, ie can i make one or get access to one you have made22:15
apwsmoser, as this is simply some perl that needs following through, its not rocket science22:15
xnox /etc/kernel-img.conf is carefully crafted, by kernel installers / re-initramfs-update-u code. And it's done for the debootstrap, and live-installer cases.22:22
xnoxon all arches.22:22
seanvkapw: I tested Dell XPS 13 (Skylake flavor) with xenial-proposed 4.4 and it is not finding the NVME at all.  I will file a bug report tonight.  Current 4.3 does find the NVME.23:24
seanvkapw: key difference is that 4.3 has CONFIG_NVMEM set, but 4.4 does not23:26
seanvkIt does23:27
seanvkNot really clear.  Sorry for the back and forth.  Still not finding the NVME though the Dell.  I will file a bug report.23:27
