| mkevac | Hi. I want to install latest kernel on my Ubuntu 16.10. I've found packages here http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10/, but there are no packages for perf util. And I am updating kernel for perf mostly. | 11:31 |
|---|---|---|
| mkevac | What is the simplest way to get latest kernel version with perf? | 11:31 |
| mkevac | As far as I understand next version of Ubuntu (Zeisty) has 4.10 kernel with correct perf packages, but I could not yet figure out how to use Zeisty repo for these packages only on my 16.10. | 11:34 |
| mkevac | This guy here has the same question: http://askubuntu.com/questions/875883/installing-perf-tools-with-custom-kernel | 11:36 |
| apw | mkevac, you likely do not want the packages from the mainline builds. those as you say do not include tools nor do they include any of the ubuntu delta | 11:40 |
| mkevac | How do I get latest stable kernel then? Or, let's simplify, how do I get 4.10 with perf on my 16.10? | 11:42 |
| apw | mkevac, we don't provide kernels for 16.10 like there. there are kernels for 16.04 officially supplied, but not quite yet as 4.10 is only just arriving in zesty | 11:44 |
| apw | mkevac, you could potentially copy those kernels out of zesty into a PPA in xenial but you would have to do so manually | 11:46 |
| apw | mkevac, and there is no guarentee that perf will work with that userspace | 11:46 |
| mkevac | I'll try copying. Thank you. | 11:47 |
| mamarley | apw: Do you know when the mainline kernels are going to start being compiled on Zesty instead of Yakkety? I'm just curious because I thought I had remembered them switching to Yakkety before this point when Yakkety was being developed. | 13:23 |
| apw | mamarley, normally it is the nearest release, so depends on the mainline version | 13:24 |
| apw | mamarley, which mainline one was on the wrong one ? | 13:24 |
| mamarley | apw: It is using the kernel config for Zesty, but it is compiling on Yakkety using the Yakkety toolchain (see http://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/v4.10/BUILD.LOG.amd64, for example) | 13:25 |

| apw | mamarley, that sounds wrong | 13:48 |
| apw | mamarley, i've added it to my list to investigate | 13:48 |
| mamarley | apw: OK, thanks! | 13:49 |

| dcnoderunner-t61 | jsalisbury: Do you mind if I msg you? | 21:54 |
| theriesnocow | is there a page that has the testing process that happens before releasing a new kernel to LTS? | 23:44 |
| theriesnocow | no answer is an answer in itself :P | 23:59 |
