[opensuse-kernel] KOTD release numbering
by Michal Marek 24 Sep '09

24 Sep '09

Hi, (sorry for the long mail, jump to "== Examples ==" below for the important part) I'm thinking about changing the versioning of KOTD packages (http://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/) as the current scheme is a bit of mess. I'd like to 1) make the release string shorter, 2) make the release string sort with official distro kernels nicely, so that with some luck, an older kotd will be replaced by a newer update kernel and vice versa. I'm thinking about the following: drop the branch name and timestamp from the release string (same information is in rpm -qi output, no need to duplicate it here). Instead of the timestamp, use the number of commits (see below) so that the release string increases. To get proper ordering with official kernels, prepend the release string of the last official kernel. More precisely: last update kernel: $version-$release current kotd: $version2-??? if $version == $version2 $release2 = $release.$ncommits.$hash else $release2 = 0.0.0.$hash remember "$version2-0.0" as a fake update kernel and count from there next time endif $ncommits would be the number of commits to the kernel repository since the last update, $hash would be the commit id (same as today). == Examples == The current SLE11_BRANCH kotd would be named kernel-default-2.6.27.25-0.0.22.8dd1bfd.x86_64.rpm because the last released update was 2.6.27.23 and Greg updated to 2.6.27.25 22 commits ago. The next update (if the version stays at .25) will be 2.6.27.25-0.1, i.e. correctly newer than the kotd. The SL110_BRANCH kotd would be named kernel-default-2.6.25.20-0.4.23.4d35a02.x86_64.rpm because the last released update was 2.6.25.20-0.4, 23 commits ago. The next update will be 2.6.25.20-0.5 at least, again newer than the kotd. Maybe the commit id should be prefixed with a "g", just like git-describe does, to make it clear what it is. Does this make sense to everyone? Does anyone depend on the current numbering scheme?

[opensuse-kernel] Moblin kernel merged to FACTORY
by Greg KH 08 Jul '09

08 Jul '09

Hi all, I just now got the Moblin (2.6.29) kernel merged into the FACTORY kernel, so it should start showing up in the next few builds. It really wasn't that many changes, the real work is in the configurations. So, here's what I plan on doing, and it would be great to get some feedback. For Moblin, we used a PAE kernel as "kernel-default". For FACTORY, I can't do that, and as we moved away from the -legacy to -default naming scheme, I'll change the Moblin images to use kernel-pae. In the kernel-pae config, I'd like to start changing stuff to reflect the fastboot things we did for Moblin. In the end, we were booting the kernel in less than a second on a tiny netbook, and I see no reason why we can't do the same for FACTORY and all future releases. To achieve this, I'll start to change the i386/pae and x86-64/default configurations to build a whole raft of drivers into the kernel, which speeds up booting a _lot_ due to the async probing that it allows the kernel to do. I'll also disable a few things that PAE systems should never need (like ISA), and a few other things that are in the Moblin kernel config. In the end, this means that you can boot without an initrd at all, but we need to move our init script changes over to FACTORY as well to take full advantage of this. There's also some mkinitrd magic I need to figure out so that we don't accidentally create initrd when we don't need them (which is a bug right now.) Any objections to any of this? Hopefully this will help with both the Moblin releases, which should be in the near future, as well as openSUSE 11.2, which will probably happen afterward. thanks, greg k-h -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help(a)opensuse.org

Why is KOTD 2.6.29-master_20090330185142_847b44e6 x86_64 still missing on ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/HEAD/) ?

Is this a build problem or was there a problem to propagate the rpms to the server ? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kernel] Updates on kernel bug 11159 & USB
by Adolph & Sharon Weidanz 19 Jun '09

19 Jun '09

Bug 11159 - reset high speed USB device using ehci_hcd http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11159 I am hoping someone knows about any updates for this bug. Alan Stern posted a couple of patches for what he suspects is the problem of Clear-TT-Buffer. Will this be incorporated into a revision after 2.6.27.23-35-pae? My system displays all of symptoms of this bug, including; the usb hub doesn't work correctly, typing lsusb cause it to go to never-never land, my bluetooth usb dongle (which worked under 10.3) isn't seen. The list goes on. Any ideas would be appreciated... -- Quis custodiet ipsos custodes _.._ _ ."\__/"./`_\ _/__<__>__\/ jgs `"/_/""""\_\\ Adolph & Sharon Weidanz SuSE 11.1 '78 43' Endeavour Ketch Folding@Home Team 45 S/V Time To Paws -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+unsubscribe(a)opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-kernel+help(a)opensuse.org

[opensuse-kernel] Some new packages in your repo
by Henne Vogelsang 18 Jun '09

18 Jun '09

Hey, you will see some newly generated packages in your repository kernel:HEAD. Those are links to packages in openSUSE:Factory and are disabled for build. We need those to set the devel-project in openSUSE:Factory. You can indentify them in the description. This is just a heads up :) Henne -- Henne Vogelsang, openSUSE.

Re: [opensuse-kernel] problems building KMPs with current factory kernel
by Bruce Rogers 05 Jun '09

05 Jun '09

Sorry to jump on this thread at this point, but I just joined this mailing list and don't have the previous emails in my system. The other problem Rudi mentioned I'm hitting as I'm working to get kvm building again in factory. I've entered a bug (bnc#509680) which references the bogus symlink. I think for now I'll try to work around it, unless a fix comes in fairly soon. - Bruce >>> "Jan Beulich" <JBeulich(a)novell.com> 06/05/09 3:09 AM >>> >>> Ruediger Oertel <ro(a)suse.de> 05.06.09 02:06 >>> >additionally, when building for the xen flavor (not with the others), you see: >make: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3-4-obj/i386/xen' >make -C ../../../linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3-4 O=/usr/src/linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3-4-obj/i386/xen/. modules > Updating /usr/src/linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3-4-obj/i386/xen/scripts/Makefile.xen >/bin/sh: /usr/src/linux-2.6.30-rc6-git3-4-obj/i386/xen/scripts/Makefile.xen: Permission denied > >why is it trying to write to the kernel source when building modules with M=/usr/src/packages/..... ? Hmm, what it's trying to do is create/update a file in $(objtree). Probably that should just be inhibited for KBUILD_EXTMOD builds, as it's supposedly meaningless there (though it's not impossible to imagine that some external module would have a -xen clone of a native file, too). I'll look into fixing this.
