xkernhi again.12:09
xkerni asked some things related to debugging.  and i'll ask again. 12:10
xkernif someone debugged ubuntu 16.0.4 lts  before ,  it can help me.12:11
xkerni'll wait here if you know something , you can write to board and i notice.12:12
apwa lot of people have debugged a lot of things, but you haven't really given them anything to work with to know if they know12:13
apwif you have a specific question i would ask that12:13
xkernokay one minute i'll write my question in details.12:15
xkernmy host machine is x86-64 kali linux  and my guest machine is ubuntu 16.0.4 lts.12:18
xkerni use virtual box as emulator.12:18
xkerni use kgdb for debugging.12:18
xkernif i put breakpoint anywhere , virtual machine doesnt stop.12:18
xkerni guess i wrote question in details . i hope i didnt write something wrong.12:18
apwthose are good details, lets someone reading think about if this is somethign they know about12:19
leitaosforshee, good morning. We would like to have this patch on 4.4 kernel. Is this something you would grab automatically with the 4.4 rebase, or, should we ask explicit? https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/patch/779346/12:41
LocutusOfBorghello, what is your plan for the .12 kernel in artful?12:42
LocutusOfBorgweeks, days?12:42
LocutusOfBorgjust to know for virtualbox12:42
apwsmb, ^12:43
apwLocutusOfBorg, we're stuggling to get 4.11 to pass things, so i would say not days12:43
* smb claims to know nutting about artful states12:43
apwsmb, the 4.4 thing12:43
LocutusOfBorgwonderful12:44
LocutusOfBorgin the meanwhile somebody will release the new vbox then12:44
LocutusOfBorgand I'll ask you to sync patches12:44
smbleitao, Either to ask for it or if that goes upstream stable it comes over time12:45
leitaosmb, right, I will raise a bug then. Thanks!12:46
apwsmb, if i am reading this right, greg applied it today stables12:46
smbapw, oh maybe... I have not looked there today12:46
* smb pulls upstream stable12:47
sforsheeleitao: we apply all of Greg's stable updates, so yes we will get it automatically12:47
leitaosforshee, right, so, just waiting is enough now?12:49
leitaosince the patch is already on greg's tree.12:49
sforsheeleitao: waiting is enough unless the stable hasn't been released and you need it right away12:49
smbleitao, So yes, it looks to be in the queue right now12:49
smbSo maybe releases next week and then could make it into the next sru cycle after the current one. so roughly applied in 3 weeks and release in 6. If life does not present us with more emergencies12:51
leitaosforshee, smb: right. Let's follow the usual process then, and we wait the rebase to grab the patch. thank you!12:53
leitaosmb, sforshee: What about 4.8 kernel? This patch is needed for 4.8 kernel also.12:55
smbleitao, for 4.8 we would need a request/bug report as ther eis no upstream stable any more12:56
leitaosmb, ok, I will raise it then. Thanks!12:56
xkernbtw , i'm new graduated  and how can i find job related to kernel hacker/developper  ? because my country is so poor for that.13:14
chilukxkern, how are you connecting kgdb to your virtual machine?15:10
chiluklast time I used kgdb I used two separate machines, and connected them via serial and network.15:11
chilukxkern how are you setting your breakpoints?15:11
chilukxkern something you might try is to try solving some bugs on https://bugzilla.kernel.org/ or https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux  this is not an easy profession to break into.15:15
chilukgood luck xkern... Unfortunately I haven't used kgdb in quite some time..15:25
xkerninstalled ubuntu kernel version is 4.8.0-36 generic on my pc.15:35
xkerni want to download same version from kernel.org but i didnt find.15:35
apwxkern, that is an ubuntu specific version number it will not be at kernel.org15:43
xkernhow can i find it ? 15:44
apwthat by the way is a very out of date version of 4.8 kernel15:45
xkernif i  download  4.8 from kernel.org, then is it problem for debugging ? i guess my debugging problem is based version.15:46
xkernbecause of that i want to download correct version for debugging.15:46
apwxkern, yes the kernel.org 4.8 is rather different from what is in our kernel15:47
xkernhmm15:48
apwif you want the debug information you likely want the ddeb's from ddeb.ubuntu.com15:48
apwthe primary source for any release is in our public git repositories15:48
apwhttps://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/SourceCode as all the details15:48
xkernthanks apw15:57
