[opensuse-kernel] first attempt at Evergreen 13.1 kernel
Hello, 13.1 is still going to be supported for quite some time before it goes into the Evergreen phase but I believe the kernel switch deserves some time for testing. Thus I prepared a (SLE12 based) 3.12 kernel for Evergreen in a similar way to the (SLE11-SP2 based) 3.0 kernel used in Evergreen 11.4. So far it's almost untested except that it builds and booted and has been running on one machine for 11 hours. Everyone adventurous enough is welcome to help with testing. The packages are available in home:mkubecek:evergreen-13.1 OBS project, repository URL (for zypper) is http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/mkubecek:/evergreen-13.1/ope... The project and its repository also contain other packages providing kernel modules. The only exception is i586 build of xen package as the kernel doesn't provide 32-bit hypervisor; hopefully it's not going to be a big problem. Diff of the configurations is attached (left column is standard 13.1 kernel, right column the evergreen one). Except the missing i586 hypervisor code, the only potential problem is the change of CONFIG_XEN_INTERFACE_VERSION, I'm going to look more into that. I still have to check the full list of available modules. Michal Kubeček

I have a question: why some modules are changed to... how do you call it, in core, not module? Ie, 'y' instead of 'm'? Not important, just curious. - -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R.

I bet it shows up eventually. Evergreen posts usually show up here only after significant delay. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."

Yes, I forgot that I'm subscribed to Evergreen list only from my private address, not the suse.cz one. So the message is waiting for moderator approval. I subscribed from this address now so this mail should pass normally.

It was changed by "make oldconfig" which is usually caused by some change in dependencies. For example, change of CONFIG_CRYPTO_SHA1 was probably caused by mainline commit f8eb8a132 ("apparmor: add the ability to report a sha1 hash of loaded policy") and CONFIG_ZLIB_DEFLATE by mainline commit 90ce4ca66 ("pstore/Kconfig: Select ZLIB_DEFLATE and ZLIB_INFLATE where PSTORE is selected").

It's not intentional. There is probably some difference either in the (generated) specfile or in project/package metadata. I'm going to look into it.

As far as I can see, Jiri's packages are based on stable-3.12.y: https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jirislaby/linux-stable.git/ while mine are based on SLE12 sources: http://kernel.opensuse.org/branches/SLE12 I believe the latter would be easier to maintain but I'm open to discussion.

IMHO, this might happen for example when there is handled IPMI during NMI. You might check if there is anything suspicious in ipmi log. You need to install "ipmitool" package and do as root: modprobe ipmi_devintf modprobe ipmi_si ipmitool sel list Also could you please paste more from dmesg, even after this warning? The message from NMI handler is printed long after the previous line. It is related to some event that is still in progress. If the event fails, the related error would be later in the log. Just to be sure. Is this reproducible? It might also be a nearly impossible race. In this case, it might be unrelated to the kernel update.
