| ricotz | sforshee, hi, is there an eta for a 4.15.7 based build for bionic and xenial? | 13:20 |
| sforshee | ricotz: I'll probably upload that to bionic-proposed in the next couple of days for bionic, less certain about xenial | 13:22 |
| ricotz | sforshee, I see, I will go for a local build in the meantime then | 13:25 |
| ricotz | sforshee, btw 4.15 is still the target for bionic? | 13:25 |
| sforshee | ricotz: yes, 4.15 | 13:33 |
| ricotz | sforshee, alright, thanks | 13:38 |
| ricotz | sforshee, minor ABI addition https://paste.debian.net/plain/1013429 | 15:04 |
| ricotz | sforshee, is it expected that the retpoline check-results are different on a xenial toolchain? | 15:06 |
| sforshee | ricotz: that has nothing to do with retpoline, it's that a new exported symbol was added | 15:16 |
| sforshee | and that won't be specific to building on xenial | 15:16 |
| ricotz | sforshee, those were two notes and independent | 15:17 |
| sforshee | oh | 15:17 |
| ricotz | so ABI addition on bionic amd64 build | 15:18 |
| ricotz | but the retpoline results differ on xenial e.g. building the bionic master-next tree on xenial | 15:18 |
| sforshee | ricotz: I'm not sure about that, apw ^ | 15:19 |
| ricotz | I guess this is simple hiding this fact https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial/commit/?h=hwe-edge&id=1bd19edd819437a08c63fcfc600a7bcff0b89741 | 15:20 |
| sforshee | I won't be surprised at all that the retpoline results with one toolchain aren't comparable to those with another toolchain, I just don't know for certain | 15:23 |
| ricotz | hmm, what is the purpose this check then? | 15:26 |
| AlexAvadanii | hi! I see 4.15 is in https://git.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-kernel/ubuntu/+source/linux/+git/xenial/log/?h=hwe-edge, but https://packages.ubuntu.com/source/xenial-updates/linux-meta-hwe-edge is still at 4.13, and I don't see it in proposed ... any idea when the transition will happen? | 20:18 |
| steve667 | Hi all, hope you're having a great day :D heeeeeey, got a question regarding Ubuntu 14.04 (sorry, kinda newbie). So, right now we have, on a couple of production servers, the kernel 3.13.0-142-generic, which is the latest one for it, I think. And looking for references for spectre/meltdown vulnerabilites, found that we could install the xenial kernel 4.4.0-116 for Ubuntu 14 with HWE, which includes the retpoline mitigation for varian | 22:34 |
| steve667 | t 2. So, my question is: If we need to have the three patches for the three vulnerabilities in Ubuntu 14 in a production environment, is this the way to go? installing xenial kernel with HWE? or is there a future release coming for Ubuntu 14 with the retpoline mitigation? thanks in advance for your attention and support :D | 22:34 |
| TJ- | steve667: checking the changelog shows "CVE-2017-5715 (Spectre v2 embargoed) // CVE-2017-5753 (Spectre v1 embargoed)" ... "- x86/asm/msr: Make wrmsrl_safe() a function" | 23:23 |
| steve66__ | :o really? was checking with the spectre checker and it said vulnerable. where can I check that changelog ? and thanks for your reply :D | 23:32 |
