13:01:53 <jskarvad> #topic PM test day
13:03:02 <jskarvad> Thanks all who participated on the PM Test Day last Thursday.
13:03:24 <jskarvad> We got great feedback.
13:04:03 <jskarvad> If you missed this event, you can still participate on http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Day:2011-03-24
13:04:19 <jskarvad> Every feedback is very valuable for us.
13:04:38 <jskarvad> Now some stats:
13:05:05 <jskarvad> There were 28 participants.
13:05:13 <jskarvad> 27 distinct machines
13:05:34 <jskarvad> We got 30 records in total.
13:06:04 <jskarvad> 260 tests were finished by all participants in total.
13:06:20 <jskarvad> 177 tests passed.
13:06:44 <jskarvad> 37 tests passed with warning.
13:07:06 <jskarvad> 46 tests failed.
13:07:25 <jskarvad> It means that 68% of tests passed.
13:07:51 <jskarvad> Or if counting the warn it means that more than 82% tests passed.
13:08:22 <jskarvad> That's really great.
13:09:04 <jskarvad> At least 9 bugs were filled into bugzilla (as tracked on wiki).
13:09:33 <jskarvad> We also discovered several more issues, that we will work later on.
13:10:01 <jsmith> :-)
13:10:06 <jskarvad> I will post the detailed stats later.
13:12:06 <jskarvad> xkriva11: did you upload your results ;) ?
13:14:32 <xkriva11> I hope so... I would like to thank you for the test they preparation. It seems to be the most successful pm test tay ever
13:14:37 <xkriva11> day
13:15:27 * jskarvad is just nitpicking
13:15:39 <jskarvad> xkriva11: thanks :)
13:16:42 <jskarvad> thats all info for the pm test day, any more questions, comments?
13:18:27 <xkriva11> when can we expect the next one?
13:20:07 <jskarvad> You must wait for F16 :)
13:20:47 <jskarvad> I count with PM Test Day for F16
13:21:06 <xkriva11> hmm, so it depends on the location... for example in Libya...
13:22:21 <jskarvad> #topic F15 PM feature status
13:23:07 <jskarvad> BZ#684854 - no tab-bar in powertop 2.x: resolved by ncurses update
13:23:33 <jskarvad> BZ#663995 - SELinux is preventing /sbin/consoletype from 'ioctl' accesses on the file /var/log/pm-suspend.log - resolved by selinux-policy and pm-utils update
13:24:16 <jskarvad> PM features were marked as 100% completed and all planned updates were pushed.

13:26:01 <jskarvad> That's all for F15 PM features status, any questions / comments?
13:27:54 <jskarvad> #topic other
13:29:01 * jsmith has nothing else to add, other than to thank jskarvad for the awesome test day :-)
13:30:37 <jskarvad> jsmith: :)
13:31:09 <jskarvad> Tuned future plans:
13:31:19 <jskarvad> We would like to add the virt profile.
13:32:40 <jskarvad> It should tune the system settings for virtualization.
13:33:33 <jskarvad> It is in the early stage, but probably the first version of the profile will get later into F15.
13:36:10 <jskarvad> Another plan (maybe for F16) is to add support to powertop for tunings persistent across reboots.
13:36:28 <jskarvad> I started playing with it.
13:37:27 <jskarvad> The idea behind is to add the script, that will scan the powertop report and creates custom tuned profile from it.
13:37:36 <jskarvad> It seems not to be hard to implement.
13:38:51 <fenrus02> kudos for tuned, it has come a long way, and started out great, and got better.
13:41:04 <jskarvad> fenrus02: we have still ideas for improvements :)
13:41:56 <jskarvad> currently there is one bachelor working on the tuned improvements regarding the dynamic network tuning as his thesis
13:42:24 <jskarvad> hopefully we will see his results soon
13:42:29 <fenrus02> jskarvad, including local_pool size, or do you mean buffer size tuning based on rtt?
13:42:58 <fenrus02> net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range rather.
13:44:51 <jskarvad> fenrus02: he was interested in link speed and latency
13:45:04 <jskarvad> especially for wireless
13:45:42 <jskarvad> regarding the power consumption
13:46:51 <fenrus02> cool, interesting conundrum there.
13:48:23 <jskarvad> hopefully it will give some useful results
13:48:53 <jskarvad> the current network plugin in tuned is very limited
13:51:32 <jskarvad> That's all from me for today, I will add all presented idea to our todo page: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/SIGs/PowerManagement/Todos
13:51:48 <fenrus02> jskarvad, does it select vegas/reno/westwood in the profile?
13:52:17 <jskarvad> fenrus02: I do not think so
13:52:39 <jskarvad> fenrus02: do you have some tips?
13:52:44 <fenrus02> too much voodoo for a profile, or is that something to be added?
13:53:22 <fenrus02> jskarvad, sadly, there is no "one ring to rule them all", but it really matters more on terrain type.  wifi for instance tends to perform better with westwood.  generalization i know.
13:53:57 <jskarvad> fenrus02: thanks for tip, I will forward it
13:55:03 <jskarvad> currently I am not the tuned core developer, but I am interested in this project
13:55:46 <jskarvad> and I post patches
13:58:45 <jskarvad> any more questions / comments?
14:00:22 <jskarvad> OK, thanks all for attending.
