[06:06] <tjaalton> apw: so now you get to bisect 4.11..4.12 for the touchpad issue? :)
[06:45] <apw> yay
[09:46] <xnox> apw, config/s390x/config.common.s390x:# CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NVME is not set
[09:46] <xnox> https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1708432
[09:46] <xnox> is there something i can do to the bug, to raise attention? should i prepare and mail patch to ubuntu kernel mailing list?
[09:47] <xnox> or is this done, because CONFIG_BLK_DEV_NVME_SCSI=y ?
[09:59] <apw> xnox, not sure if that means it is on or not, i don't suppose any of our kit has those in it ...
[10:01] <xnox> apw, it does sound like a forward looking thing e.g. z14 or maybe even later.
[10:02] <xnox> thus yeah, we deffinately do not have kit.
[10:02] <apw> xnox, anyhow you have done the right thing to raise it to my attention
[10:04] <xnox> apw, thank you sir.
[12:17] <dasjoe> So, I've got some TB3 and USB-C docks with an (as of now) unsupported Realtek r8152. I've built a PPA for realtek's drivers, as the new revisions will be supported from 4.13 onwards. Is there a process to SRU specific drivers into xenial, or is the usual method to just wait it out?
[13:03] <apw> dasjoe, it all depends how self-contained the changes are to support that, if it looks tractible it is not impossible to have it SRUd
[13:03] <apw> dasjoe, and of course if it is in 4.13 that will be a linux-hwe kernel in xenial at some point
[19:00] <loganaden> hello
[19:11] <dasjoe> apw: well, it's this commit: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/65b82d696b9e84fda6dd7df61801b57d3e7fb976
[19:11] <dasjoe> Although I went a different way and built my PPA from realtek's source
