| radiofree | in foundation we build dbus-pre, and dbus | 09:12 |
| radiofree | it's used only for systemd | 09:13 |
| radiofree | oh right, --disable-systemd | 09:13 |
| radiofree | systemd needs dbus, then dbus needs systemd | 09:13 |
| richard_maw | I'm not sure systemd *does* need libdbus any more | 09:14 |
| radiofree | we seem to be using a highly specific branch as well baserock/dbus-1.8.16-1-g3c05557/genivi/J-1.0 | 09:14 |
| richard_maw | *that* is because genivi needed weird patches | 09:14 |
| radiofree | oh wonderful, so potentially we can't just bump it to dbus-1.9.16 | 09:15 |
| Kinnison | I guess we need to analyse what the patches were that genivi needed and determine whether or not they still need them | 09:15 |
| Kinnison | it may have been AF_BUS related | 09:15 |
| radiofree | "add support for custom marshalling" | 09:15 |
| radiofree | they're still adding that to the top of their genivi branches (at least as of 1.9.4) | 09:16 |
| Kinnison | :-/ | 09:16 |
| richard_maw | :¬( | 09:16 |
| *** edcragg has joined #baserock | 09:16 | |
| *** Krin has joined #baserock | 09:16 | |
| radiofree | i'll see how cleanly this applies to 1.9.16 | 09:16 |
| rdale | i would have thought dbus marshalling is pretty flexible - what is it that they are marshalling that is so tricky? | 09:16 |
| radiofree | rdale: http://git.baserock.org/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/delta/dbus.git/commit/?h=baserock/genivi/dbus-1.9.4&id=880f5199aa8b6d6e864d25099e04bad410b76ace | 09:17 |
| radiofree | patch applied without problems | 09:20 |
| jonathanmaw | I just had a chunk fail to build because the .git directory belonged to user 1000, instead of root | 09:21 |
| rdale | i'm totally unconvinced it is needed given that everyone else seems to have no problems with xml based idls etc | 09:21 |
| *** tiagogomes_ has quit IRC | 09:22 | |
| *** tiagogomes_ has joined #baserock | 09:22 | |
| jonathanmaw | for some reason a lot of my repos in /src/cache/gits belong to user 1000 | 09:23 |
| Kinnison | On a pure Baserock system or a chroot? | 09:24 |
| *** sherm_ has joined #baserock | 09:24 | |
| jonathanmaw | Kinnison: pure baserock. | 09:24 |
| Kinnison | How odd | 09:24 |
| Kinnison | does your system have a uid 1000 in it? | 09:24 |
| jonathanmaw | baserock has no user 1000, my best guess is that someone did something silly with rsync | 09:24 |
| Kinnison | Or did you rsync stuff from elsewhere ? | 09:24 |
| * richard_maw was just able to point someone at the work we did for openstack because they also wanted to run openvswitch with networkd | 09:35 | |

| franred | pedroalvarez, you have reviewed https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/654/ with -1 but I can't see any comments about why :) | 09:39 |
| SotK | pedroalvarez: do you know what happens if you restart the stuck build you saw on Friday? | 09:43 |
| pedroalvarez | SotK: so, stop the build and kick a distbuild again? | 09:45 |
| pedroalvarez | SotK: I can try that, but I don't know yet. I upgraded Morph to the version that we are using in 15.19.2 to see if the problem still exists (and stop bothering you) | 09:46 |
| SotK | pedroalvarez: yes please | 09:47 |
| pedroalvarez | to stop bothering you? :) | 09:47 |
| pedroalvarez | SotK: thanks for helping | 09:48 |
| SotK | haha, to restart the build :) | 09:48 |
| SotK | no problem | 09:48 |
| * richard_maw tested https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/660/ with a live atomic update by having systemd pivot itself into the new root | 09:52 | |
| pedroalvarez | woot | 09:53 |
| Kinnison | huzzah | 09:53 |
| richard_maw | I think it ought to make a new network namespace on pivot and un-propagate mounts in the old root, so it can unmount them in the new root | 09:54 |
| richard_maw | s/network namespace/mount namespace/ | 09:54 |
| straycat | hrm, older versions of git-review seem to have --draft, but my version does not | 09:55 |
| * richard_maw notes his shutdownramfs patches haven't been reviewed | 09:56 | |
| richard_maw | https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/624/ https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/625/ | 09:56 |
| * pedroalvarez is going to be less busy this week | 09:58 | |
| pedroalvarez | I'll be doing some reviews, starting with shutdwonramfs | 09:59 |
| jjardon | Hi, is there a way to tell morph to generate the images in a specific filesystem format (ie, ext4 instead btrfs) | 10:13 |
| pedroalvarez | jjardon: I believe that there isn't a way to do that | 10:14 |
| pedroalvarez | you will have to do your own write extension | 10:14 |
| richard_maw | jjardon: not currently | 10:14 |
| * jjardon is in trouble :) | 10:15 | |
| richard_maw | what is the nature of your Baserock emergency? | 10:15 |
| jjardon | 2 problems: 1. generate an image smaller that 32MiB 2. Generate an image that is not btrfs | 10:18 |
| jjardon | this is meant to be a OpenBMC image to flash a aspeed BMC chip | 10:19 |
| rjek | Is ext4 suitable for use on the Flash? | 10:20 |
| richard_maw | hm, I understand your attempt at stripping the binaries as a system integration command isn't sufficient. You may be able to solve that by manually adding strip commands to the chunks that go into your system. | 10:20 |
| ssam2 | jjardon: a .write extension can do anything you want, there's no need for it to be btrfs | 10:20 |
| rjek | for example, is it exposed as a block device or a MTD, in which case something like jffs or ubi might be more appropriate? | 10:20 |
| ssam2 | jjardon: some .write extensions use code from the morphlib.writeexts module that creates a btrfs filesystem layout, but it's fine not to use that | 10:20 |
| jjardon | rjek: I think MTD | 10:20 |
| jjardon | rjek: thanks for the hint though | 10:21 |
| rjek | jjardon: I'd probably avoid extN, then. Do you know what the reference image uses? | 10:21 |
| jjardon | I will try to write a new extension then | 10:22 |
| rjek | If you're not careful, extN cooks flash, and I imagine your BMC's flash is not easily replacable! | 10:23 |
| jjardon | rjek: no idea, kejiahu do you know? | 10:24 |
| kejiahu | jjardon: not particular familar with what fs should be used in MTD, but there is a list here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_file_systems | 10:26 |
| kejiahu | jjardon: JFFS2 is something I heard about a lot, may be go for that at first? | 10:27 |
| rjek | JFFS2 is a bit old-school. | 10:28 |
| straycat | huzzah submitting drafts is actually just git-review -D >.> | 10:28 |
| rjek | I think UBI is the fashion-statement of the moment. | 10:28 |
| * kejiahu changes his mind to UBI :P | 10:28 | |
| * straycat has submitted draft topic https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/q/status:open+project:baserock/baserock/morph+branch:master+topic:ripsum/requests-in-db for comments | 10:28 | |
| jjardon | grepping the https://github.com/facebook/openbmc I see references to jff2 | 10:29 |
| rjek | Probably easier to go with what they know already, then | 10:29 |
| kejiahu | agreed | 10:29 |
| straycat | i was working on this a bit last week, but it's still not quite finished, i may get some time to finish it off tomorrow if i'm lucky | 10:29 |
| jjardon | rjek: this project uses a 6 year old kernel, so I would not expect anything "fashion-statement" :) | 10:30 |
| richard_maw | straycat: I see no changes in the topic, is that meant to happen? | 10:30 |
| rjek | jjardon: hahahaha | 10:30 |
| rjek | jjardon: OK, JFFS2 it is :) | 10:30 |
| franred | straycat, I can't see nothing in that link...I don't know id there are public drafts | 10:30 |
| franred | s/id/if/ | 10:30 |
| rjek | We used JFFS2 at Simtec; it's very nice but not scalable: large file systems (>128MB or so) take too long to mount on puny ARMs. | 10:30 |
| rjek | (As it's a log-style file system: it needs to scan the whole of flash to find the latest version of the log.) | 10:31 |
| straycat | richard_maw, franred, I guess I must have to explicitly add you as revieweres | 10:31 |
| richard_maw | rjek: how does squashfs compare? | 10:32 |
| straycat | which… isn't exactly what i wanted tbh | 10:32 |
| rjek | richard_maw: squashfs is read-only | 10:32 |
| rjek | So has no journal to worry about | 10:32 |
| straycat | richard_maw, franred, try again | 10:34 |
| *** zoli__ has quit IRC | 10:34 | |
| franred | straycat, yeah, that works | 10:34 |
| richard_maw | straycat: I see it now | 10:34 |
| richard_maw | well, sort of | 10:35 |
| richard_maw | I can see that it exists, but not its contents so far | 10:35 |
| straycat | you can see only one change? | 10:35 |
| richard_maw | straycat: yes | 10:35 |
| franred | straycat, but I can only access the last patch | 10:35 |
| straycat | that makes sense, I only added you to the last patch | 10:36 |
| richard_maw | https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/666/ appears to be an empty page | 10:36 |
| jonathanmaw | superstitious gerrit | 10:37 |
| richard_maw | patch request of the beast | 10:37 |
| straycat | richard_maw, I'm not sure what to make of that | 10:37 |
| richard_maw | tbh I'd be happier with avoiding drafts, slapping RFC to the beginning of all the patch names and preemptively -2ing it | 10:38 |
| radiofree | can i have some gerrit help please | 10:39 |
| radiofree | i need to update https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/656/1 | 10:39 |
| radiofree | however one patch has already been merged | 10:39 |
| straycat | richard_maw, *nod* | 10:39 |
| radiofree | and also now https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/657/1 is complaining about a dependency issue | 10:39 |
| radiofree | should i abandon the webkit patch + qtmultimedia and resubmit? | 10:40 |
| pedroalvarez | radiofree: never abandon if you plan to resubmit | 10:40 |
| richard_maw | I usually got away with rebasing the whole series, dropping merged patches and pushing the whole series again | 10:40 |
| jjardon | kejiahu: mmm, seems they are using ext2 for the wedge board: https://github.com/facebook/openbmc/blob/master/meta-facebook/meta-wedge/recipes-core/images/wedge-image.inc#L72 | 10:40 |
| radiofree | well one of the patches i need to resubmit has already been merged? | 10:40 |
| radiofree | ah | 10:40 |
| radiofree | so rebase whole, drop merged one, resubmit with same topic branch? | 10:41 |
| richard_maw | yeah | 10:41 |
| * straycat publishes ripsum/requests-in-db | 10:41 | |
| pedroalvarez | radiofree: and keeping the change-id's | 10:41 |
| radiofree | ok, thanks | 10:41 |
| straycat | hrm? i've not needed to do that | 10:42 |
| straycat | assuming you kept the change-id of the merged patch, i would haven't expected there to be a problem there | 10:43 |
| kejiahu | jjardon: I don't think ext2 was supported in MTD, unless they have FTL device in between the flash and BMC chip. we don't have FTL on the board as far as I can tell, so JFFS2 may be the best choice for us now. | 10:55 |
| franred | straycat, Im just curious, have you check what is the performance using the database? (comparison between with and without the database in a build and in distbuild) | 10:56 |
| straycat | franred, no | 10:56 |
| franred | straycat, Im not clear about what do you try to fix/achieve with the introduction of the database (maybe expanding the commit message would give us the idea about the RFC?) | 10:59 |
| straycat | sorry, yes probably should have | 11:00 |
| jjardon | kejiahu: right, thanks for checking | 11:03 |

| ssam2 | you mean the 'remote: [trove.baserock.org] Notifying Mason of changes...' ? | 11:11 |
| ssam2 | git.baserock.org is a Trove | 11:11 |
| ssam2 | and it has that hook which hasn't done anything for about 3 years | 11:11 |
| ssam2 | I removed that in 'master' but I guess it must live in /home somewhere so it hasn't been fixed when upgrading git.baserock.org | 11:11 |
| ssam2 | i'll try remove it manually if I can remember how | 11:11 |
| radiofree | yes that remote trove.baserock.org thing | 11:12 |
| ssam2 | i've removed the hook from git.baserock.org/gitano-admin.git, hopefully that will remove that useless message | 11:22 |
| ssam2 | thanks for the reminder | 11:22 |
| ssam2 | interesting boot failure on Jetson: http://paste.baserock.org/olibasawog | 11:43 |
| ssam2 | this is a report from our friends in Bulgaria | 11:44 |
| ssam2 | it is built and deployed from the baserock-15.19.2 tag apparently | 11:44 |
| ssam2 | pedroalvarez tested the 15.19 Jetson image on a Jetson, and didn't see this problem | 11:45 |
| pedroalvarez | indeed I tested that | 11:45 |
| pedroalvarez | there are some variables: how have they flashed the image | 11:45 |
| pedroalvarez | maybe more | 11:45 |
| radiofree | root=/dev/mmcblk1p2 ? | 11:45 |
| radiofree | looks like some device tree issue as well, are they using a custom kernel or something? | 11:46 |
| radiofree | ssam2: can you ask them what they're deployment cluster looked like? | 11:47 |
| ssam2 | good idea | 11:47 |
| radiofree | ssam2: they forget to set DTB_PATH | 11:48 |
| ssam2 | right | 11:49 |
| radiofree | DTB_PATH: "boot/tegra124-jetson-tk1.dtb" | 11:49 |
| radiofree | also i'm going to assume ROOT_DEVICE is incorrectly set as well | 11:49 |
| radiofree | unless they want to boot off an sd card | 11:49 |
| ssam2 | oh, they do want that | 11:50 |
| radiofree | ah | 11:50 |

| radiofree | lorry request http://paste.fedoraproject.org/222923/43195100/ | 12:10 |
| ssam2 | radiofree: looks ok, +1 from me | 12:27 |
| ssam2 | is anyone thinking about submitting a talk to linuxcon europe / or embedded linuxcon europe this year? | 12:28 |
| ssam2 | it's in Dublin so not far for us Manchester folk | 12:28 |
| ssam2 | http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/linuxcon-europe/program/cfp | 12:29 |
| rjek | I also have a lorry request: http://paste.baserock.org/aqekepegux | 12:41 |
| * rjek wants to experiment with running SpamAssassin and ClamAV inside a container in the short term | 12:41 | |
| ssam2 | is there a reason you need it to be mirrored by the Baserock project? | 12:47 |
| rjek | Strikes me as useful | 12:47 |
| ssam2 | i didn't ask radiofree that because i guessed he wants to use it in our genivi-baseline reference system | 12:47 |
| rjek | (And it's only small) | 12:47 |
| ssam2 | i've no problem with it, if you need it there, so +1 from me. but it's not a requirement to have stuff hosted in git.baserock.org just to use it in a system built with Baserock | 12:48 |
| ssam2 | it only needs to be mirrored in git.baserock.org if you want to use it in one of the supported 'reference systems' | 12:48 |
| rjek | Another use case I can think of is when working on a dev system in a dev system, and you suddenly need to use a tool you've not got, having a chroot to hand might be a big time-saver | 12:48 |
| franred | ssam2, I was thinking to go | 12:50 |
| ssam2 | rjek: do you plan to add it to one of the reference systems, then? | 12:53 |
| rjek | ssam2: It might be handy in the dev reference system, yeah: but I plan on using it (at least in the short term) for building sysadmin systems. | 12:54 |
| *** pacon has quit IRC | 12:56 | |
| ssam2 | so you want a 'sysadmin' system that's capable of downloading a Debian chroot into itself? seems reasonable if you want access to stuff from Debian inside a Baserock system | 12:58 |
| radiofree | i don't want my lorry anymore | 12:58 |
| radiofree | sorry if it's already been merged | 12:58 |
| ssam2 | radiofree: i didn't merge it yet. also, you were right about the missing DTB_PATH | 12:59 |
| * richard_maw grumbles about the lack of CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES in our kernels | 13:02 | |
| richard_maw | it makes nspawn work less well | 13:03 |
| ssam2 | i think that's needed for Docker also | 13:03 |
| * richard_maw checks when DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES was introduced, to decide whether we can enable it for all our kernels, or just some of them | 13:04 | |
| rjek | ssam2: Yes, precisely. | 13:05 |
| rjek | DavePage: But I think it might be useful as a general tool in dev images too: the installed size is pretty tiny, as it's just a bunch of shell scripts | 13:05 |
| rjek | Err | 13:05 |
| rjek | ssam2, not DavePage. | 13:05 |
| * rjek should probably also submit an appropriate morph definition and patch for dev system | 13:06 | |
| ssam2 | rjek: when would it be better than just using a Debian system, though? | 13:06 |
| rjek | ssam2: Yes. | 13:06 |
| rjek | ssam2: But that's not always an option :) | 13:06 |
| richard_maw | pff, CONFIG_DEVPTS_MULTIPLE_INSTANCES came out in 2.6.29, I'll enable it globally | 13:10 |
| paulsherwood | mason looks unhappy | 13:11 |
| paulsherwood | does audiomanager build for other folks? not for me | 13:11 |

| pedroalvarez | paulsherwood: mason were really unhappy. I've dealing with them, and they seem to be happier now | 13:25 |
| Kinnison | paulsherwood: there were a large number of issues with audiomanager -- I believe Graham had some patches on baserock-dev which helped matters | 13:28 |

| jjardon | ssam2: hi, maybe you can reconsider https://gerrit.baserock.org/#/c/531/ now that definitions version has been bumped? | 14:05 |
| ssam2 | once there's a new release of Baserock we can merge that | 14:15 |
| ssam2 | I think if we merged it now, Baserock 15.19 would crash when trying to deploy 'master' of definitions | 14:15 |
| ssam2 | and if we bump VERSION to 4 now, Baserock 15.19 will refuse to build 'master' of definitions | 14:16 |

| radiofree | paulsherwood: adding swap means you can compile qtwebkit on a jetson in about 1hour 20minutes instead of 4hours | 14:20 |
| Kinnison | radiofree: nice | 14:20 |
| * rjek is surprised it makes it faster (rather than simply possible.) | 14:20 | |
| rjek | But I suppose it frees up more actual RAM by swapping stuff out that is not in the working set | 14:20 |
| richard_maw | rjek: it means you don't have to work around the crashes by setting max-jobs: 1 | 14:21 |
| rjek | Aha | 14:21 |
| Kinnison | rjek: swap lets you have datasets swapped, without it only text segments and RODATA segments can be paged. As such it helps a lot when you have n parallel C++ compilations | 14:21 |
| Kinnison | rjek: swapping out the datasets is way more efficient than constantly paging the code you're trying to run | 14:22 |
| rjek | Kinnison: Aye. | 14:22 |
| radiofree | rjek: it's because of max-jobs | 14:24 |
| * rjek nods | 14:25 | |

| rjek | I suppose the issues of in CPU power / memory latency are somewhat different on ARM, hand't really thought about that. | 14:25 |

| radiofree | i do actually want my audiomanagerdemo lorry :( | 14:31 |
| radiofree | this [13:10:30] <radiofree> lorry request http://paste.fedoraproject.org/222923/43195100/ | 14:31 |
| ssam2 | radiofree: it's easier for me if you can send it to gerrit | 14:34 |
| ssam2 | but if someone else can give this a +1 i shall merge it from your patch. this time! | 14:35 |
| straycat | https://github.com/evalEmpire/gitpan/blob/master/README.md looks like it might be useful for a cpan import tool extension | 14:43 |
| * paulsherwood confirms audiomanager builds with a 4GB vm | 14:44 | |
| paulsherwood | how do we enable swap? can it be done by defauly? | 14:45 |
| ssam2 | straycat: I think tlsa was looking at that | 14:45 |
| rjek | paulsherwood: mkswap on a block device, then swapon that block device | 14:45 |
| rjek | (ie, say add another block device, if it comes up as /dev/vdc, mkswap /dev/vcd && swapon /dev/vcd) | 14:45 |
| paulsherwood | rjek: you're assuming i understand what you're writing. could someone write up a guide on the wiki? | 14:46 |
| rjek | paulsherwood: I am assuming that :) | 14:46 |
| * paulsherwood doesn't, sadly | 14:47 | |
| rjek | paulsherwood: Swap requires another block device (partition, virtual drive, or whatever) | 14:47 |
| * rjek tries to remember if you can swapon to a file on a file system; if so you might be able to create a big file with truncate(1) and swapon to that... | 14:47 | |
| paulsherwood | rjek: i get that, i'm just interested to know what the actual commands would be | 14:48 |
| * rjek experiments. | 14:48 | |
| rjek | paulsherwood: If you had a new virtual drive as /dev/vdc, literally: mkswap /dev/vdc && swapon /dev/vdc | 14:48 |
| paulsherwood | (and ideally get them on the wiki, rather than have them lost in the mists of irc) | 14:48 |
| rjek | (This will obviously destroy any existing content on /dev/vdc) | 14:48 |
| paulsherwood | and the command to make a new virtual drive? | 14:49 |
| rjek | swapon: /root/swap: skipping - it appears to have holes. | 14:49 |
| rjek | boo | 14:49 |
| straycat | you could make a loopback device? | 14:49 |
| rjek | paulsherwood: That depends entirely on what virtualising tool you're using | 14:49 |
| paulsherwood | bah :) | 14:49 |
| rjek | $ dd if=/dev/zero of=swap bs=$((1024*1024)) count=2048 | 14:51 |
| rjek | $ mkswap swap | 14:51 |
| rjek | $ swapon swap | 14:51 |
| rjek | (add 2GB of swap via a 2GB file in your file system) | 14:51 |
| rjek | (On future reboots, only `swapon swap` will be needed.) | 14:51 |
| paulsherwood | could this be done as system-integration commands for build and dev systems? | 14:52 |
| radiofree | paulsherwood: i sent a guide to baserock-dev ages ago | 14:52 |
| paulsherwood | did you? | 14:52 |
| * paulsherwood searches | 14:52 | |
| rjek | Date: Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:36:01 +0000 | 14:52 |

| rjek | Or that :) | 14:53 |
| straycat | tlsa, ping? | 14:54 |
| tlsa | yep | 14:56 |
| * straycat gets the feeling importing from cpan will be even less yielding than pypi | 14:57 | |
| straycat | tlsa, did you look at gitpan? | 14:57 |
| tlsa | no | 14:57 |
| tlsa | had not heard of it | 14:57 |
| straycat | ok | 14:57 |

| paulsherwood | http://superuser.com/questions/539287/swapon-failed-invalid-argument-on-a-linux-system-with-btrfs-filesystem | 17:19 |
| rjek | Oh, btrfs. :) | 17:28 |
| rjek | Don't do that :) | 17:28 |
| rjek | You *might* be able to trick it by creating an ext3 file system in a loopback file, and then putting your swap file in that! But I wouldn't recommend it. | 17:29 |
| * paulsherwood decides not to try | 17:29 | |
| rjek | Add a new virtual drive to your VM :) | 17:29 |
| paulsherwood | yes, that's probably the answer | 17:29 |
| pedroalvarez | paulsherwood: ooi why adding swap? | 17:33 |
| * radiofree never has a btrfs /src | 17:33 | |
| * rjek never has a btrfs :) | 17:34 | |
| *** sherm_ has quit IRC | 17:35 | |
| paulsherwood | pedroalvarez: to speed up build? :) | 17:36 |
| radiofree | paulsherwood: it's only going to speed up the chunks that fail because they run out of ram, and we've set max-jobs: 1 to | 17:37 |
| jjardon | seems there are wip patches to add swap files to btrfs: https://lwn.net/Articles/625412/ | 17:38 |
| rjek | Probably better to put it in a partition/LV anyway | 17:40 |
| rjek | But on a fat dev PC, just throw loads more actual RAM at your VM | 17:40 |
| * SotK found a script which creates swap on btrfs, I'm not sure how sane it was though :) | 18:00 | |
| jjardon | Hi, gnome-shell and perl stop lorrying (last commit ), can someone take a look, please? | 18:34 |
