| ivan | hmm, shouldn't 4.4.0-53 be in linux-xenial/master? | 08:10 |
|---|---|---|
| ivan | and master-next is only up to -52 | 08:12 |
| ivan | http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/ubuntu/ubuntu-xenial.git I mean | 08:14 |
| ivan | OK -53 is in the repo now :-) | 12:56 |
| stoatwblr | I have a bug with mptsas - ata erase (and secure) erase are failing. (The running kernel lacks CONFIG_IDE_TASK_IOCTL support for this device.) - works fine if the disk is plugged into the server's onboard sata ports, but that means having to go onsite to do this stuff. | 16:03 |
| stoatwblr | mpt3sas actually... :) | 16:06 |
| stoatwblr | hmmm. already fixed upstream. | 16:12 |
| stoatwblr | has the mpt3sas "Fix secure erase premature termination" (Nov 30th) been rolled into ubuntu-kernel yet? | 16:28 |
| stoatwblr | commit 18f6084a989ba1b38702f9af37a2e4049a924be6 and 7ff723ad0f87 | 16:28 |

| stoatwblr | it would appear not. How can I request it. Doesn't seem to be a way of filing a bug in launchpad. | 16:43 |
| rtg | stoatwblr, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug | 17:21 |
| stoatwblr | thanks | 17:26 |
| stoatwblr | just checking whether 4.8.0-30-generic might have had it added (Don't think so but always worth looking) | 17:26 |
| rtg | BenC, I've been meaning to ask you about powerpc64-emb. I had to temporarily disable that flavor in Zesty (v.9) because arch/powerpc/kernel/head_64.S fails to assemble within the CONFIG_PPC_BOOK3E blocks. | 17:59 |
| BenC | rtg: What kernel version is zesty at? | 18:00 |
| rtg | BenC, 4.9-rc8 | 18:00 |
| BenC | Are you still adding any patches from E500/BOOK3E? | 18:00 |
| BenC | All of the patches that I once had added are no longer needed, so if there are any remnants, you can remove them. | 18:01 |
| BenC | If something still isn’t compiling, I’ll take a look at it now. | 18:01 |
| rtg | BenC, looks like that file at least is vanilla | 18:01 |
| dmj_s76 | sforshee: So I've identified another issue relating to linux-firmware and (this time) kernel 4.8. Bug incoming. | 18:42 |
| ogra_ | bjf, hmm, i wonder if you cant copy to the PPA because it is owned by snappy-dev and you are not a member ... want me to try the command to verify ? | 18:43 |
| dmj_s76 | sforshee: It seems iwlwifi on kernel 4.8 doesn't work with the latest microcode (/lib/firmware/iwlwifi-8000C-22.ucode) under some circumstances. | 18:43 |
| bjf | ogra_, yes, please try | 18:43 |
| bjf | ogra_, henrix just pointed out to me that that ppa is over 100% full | 18:44 |
| dmj_s76 | Now my guess is that a) -22 microcode is buggy or b) 4.8 requires patches to work correctly with it. | 18:44 |
| ogra_ | bjf, hmm, doesnt work for me either | 18:46 |
| ogra_ | oh | 18:46 |
| ogra_ | then the error is weird though | 18:46 |
| ogra_ | it shoould still find it | 18:46 |
| bjf | ogra_, indeed | 18:46 |
| dmj_s76 | This has been reported online by users of many different distros. In our case, the microcode causes kernel crashes when 64GB of RAM (4x16GB) is installed in a certain laptop model, but not 48GB (3x16GB) or other less populated configurations. | 18:47 |
| dmj_s76 | renaming the -22 ucode so things fallback to the -21 fixes things. | 18:48 |
| ogra_ | bjf, oh man ... | 18:49 |
| ogra_ | bjf, "--to=~snappy-dev/ubuntu/snappy-devices" ... works | 18:49 |
| bjf | oh | 18:49 |
| ogra_ | do you want to try yourself or should i just confirm (it is sitting at y/N ) | 18:49 |
| bjf | ogra_, yes, let me try | 18:50 |
| henrix | ogra_: ah, i actually tried with "--to=~snappy-dev/snappy-devices" and it failed too... i guess i was close :) | 18:50 |
| ogra_ | probably best if you try | 18:50 |
| ogra_ | henrix, yeah :) | 18:50 |
| bjf | ogra_, "./copy-package --from ubuntu --from-suite vivid-updates --to=~ppa:snappy-dev/ubuntu/snappy-devices --to-suite vivid -b linux linux-meta linux-signed" fails for me | 18:51 |
| ogra_ | whats the error ? | 18:51 |
| bjf | AssertionError: No such archive: ~ppa:snappy-dev/ubuntu/snappy-devices | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | no | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | no tilde in front of ppa | 18:52 |
| bjf | oh! i see what i did | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | its either tilde or ppa: | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | iirc they are kind of equivalent | 18:52 |
| bjf | ogra_, it's working | 18:52 |
| ogra_ | \o/ | 18:52 |
| bjf | ogra_, done! no errors | 18:53 |
| ogra_ | yay | 18:53 |
| henrix | bjf: what? with a ppa at 100%? that's odd | 18:55 |
| bjf | henrix, what can i say .. i think it worked | 18:55 |
| ogra_ | i definitely see the packages | 18:57 |
| sforshee | dmj_s76: that's nice. Please file a bug, we need one for any SRU. | 19:01 |

| sforshee | dmj_s76: sounds like we'll need this in yakkety and xenial, right? Do you know if the problems go away with a 4.9 kernel? | 19:56 |
| dmj_s76 | sforshee: I haven't tested 4.9 yet | 19:57 |
| dmj_s76 | Yakkety should be the priority for now, but xenial will need it by the next point release. | 19:57 |
| sforshee | dmj_s76: if you get a chance it would be nice to know about 4.9. We've got a 4.9 build in zesty-proposed. | 20:01 |
| sforshee | dmj_s76: do you have any idea whether or not there are similar issues with the other -22 firmwares? | 20:05 |
| dmj_s76 | sforshee: I don't know how the other -22 firmwares behave. We only ship a limited subset of wifi cards known to work well (except when bugs like this happen) | 20:06 |
| sforshee | dmj_s76: do you have links to the other reports of this problem? I'm trying to determine if we need to revert the -22 ucode completely or just the one | 20:20 |

| sforshee | dmj_s76: thanks. Between that and my own searching all the cases I see where the -22 ucode was clearly to blame were with 8260, so I guess I'll only remove that one. | 20:33 |
