bgianfLooks like you guys ported the following change to xenial's kernel tree: http://kernel.ubuntu.com/git/kernel-ppa/mirror/ubuntu-xenial.git/commit/mm?id=b56d2a75e1daae6ff6eedfb732eadf3c13df609002:45
bgianfThis introduced a bug (infinite loop) when using transparent huge pages.02:47
bgianfFix is here: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/mm/huge_memory.c?id=8310d48b125d19fcd9521d83b8293e63eb1646aa02:47
bgianfEveryone on my team is hitting this bug on xenial, what's the likely hood of getting the fix ported?02:48
bgianfWent ahead and file here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/166051803:29
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1660518 in linux (Ubuntu) ""mm/huge_memory.c: respect FOLL_FORCE/FOLL_COW for thp" needs to be ported to Xenial Kernel" [Undecided,New]03:29
smbbgianf, Hm, looks like that FOLL_FORCE/FOLL_COW is already aked for (though for different reasons). There is hope to get it into this cycle08:43
bgianfsmb, cool thanks for the info. Was there somewhere I could have looked to see that it was already asked for?08:47
bgianfLooked around briefly, didn't see anything...08:47
smbbgianf, It was on the kernel-team mailing list (think there is some archive, too, but probably hard to find by search)08:48

bgianfthanks for the link! 09:02
zioprotohello all. I am new here. I would like some feedback about CONFIG_NET_DROP_MONITOR=n in the Ubuntu Kernel. It would be of great help to have it set to module. We use ubuntu for the openstack network node.13:45
rtgzioproto, I just set CONFIG_NET_DROP_MONITOR=m in what will become the Zesty kernel.13:50
rtg(based on your comment)13:50
zioprotothanks13:50
zioprotoIf this goes in Zesty I can package the application dropwatch for ubuntu13:51
zioprotoat the moment is packaged only on Fedora13:51
zioprotohttps://fedorahosted.org/dropwatch/13:52
zioprotobut it really needs that Kernel support13:52
rtgzioproto, It'll likely be a week or so before the 4.10 kernel gets promoted to the Zesty archive. (which is the version to which I've committed the CONFIG_NET_DROP_MONITOR patch)13:54
zioprotortg, thanks ! how does it work for the Xenial kernels ?14:10
rtgzioproto, there doesn't seem to be a reason why it couldn't be set '=m'14:19
rtgzioproto, please file a bug and assign me to it14:19
zioprotortg, here ? https://bugs.launchpad.net/~canonical-kernel-team14:29
rtgzioproto, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+filebug14:31
zioprotortg, redirects to https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ReportingBugs14:34
rtgzioproto, maybe you have to be logged in14:34
zioprotortg, this one works https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+filebug14:34
zioprotomaybe the +source/linux was missing ?14:35
zioprotortg, https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/166063414:37
ubot5Ubuntu bug 1660634 in linux (Ubuntu) "Enable CONFIG_NET_DROP_MONITOR=m in Ubuntu Kernel" [Undecided,New]14:37
zioprotoI cannot assign it to another person14:38
zioprotoYou may only assign yourself because you are not affiliated with this project and do not have any team memberships.14:38
rtgzioproto, done14:40
zioprotothanks!14:40
zygaogasawara: hey, I'm sorry to bother you with such a tiny thing; I wrote a patch that exposes bind mount as a flag in mountinfo, do you think it makes sense to send this anywhere? http://paste.ubuntu.com/23901026/19:49
