15:00:33 <pwhalen> morning folks, whos here today?
15:00:38 <marc84> morning everyone
15:00:39 <jlinton> Good morning
15:00:41 <rric> Hi pwahlen
15:00:55 <rric> morning everyone
15:01:28 <pwhalen> morning rric jlinton marc84! lets give it a moment..
15:01:52 * pbrobinson o/
15:03:16 <pwhalen> ok, lets get going..
15:03:18 <pwhalen> #topic 1) ==== Userspace Status  ====
15:03:39 <pwhalen> hows userspace? anyone aware of any build issues? usage issues?
15:04:22 <rric> don't know if it is right here:
15:04:23 <pbrobinson> the issue with llvmpipe should now be fixed, jlinton can you test when you get a moment
15:04:35 <rric> are there plans to support fw updates with capsule?
15:04:48 <pbrobinson> bug 1429050 for reference
15:04:51 <pbrobinson> rric: we already do
15:05:11 <pbrobinson> rric: the support has been there for a little while if you have the appropriate versions of uefi
15:05:27 <rric> pbrobinson, ah, ok, so userland is there to test with fw
15:05:36 <rric> pbrobinson, tnx
15:06:01 <pbrobinson> rric: yep, has been for a couple of cycles I believe, it's the same support as x86 and has been tested on aarch64
15:07:27 <jlinton> pbrobinson: I updated my hikey last night to the latest rawhide, and vnc / firefox /etc all worked
15:07:29 <pbrobinson> rric: in the fwupdate/fwupdate-efi packages plus associated bits
15:07:40 <jlinton> pbrobinson: I will update the defect.
15:07:45 <pbrobinson> jlinton: awesome, thx
15:08:14 <pwhalen> #info builds of Maxima failing on aarch64 in rawhide and f26. If anyone has cycles to assist please contact the maintainer.
15:08:20 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=2505
15:08:21 <jlinton> pbrobinson: Looks like the dracut/kernel all work for USB too, although my regulator changes are still hanging out, so the SD is problematic still
15:08:50 <pbrobinson> yes, on the maxima front please can someone assist the maintainer with debug, there's a thread on devel@ too
15:09:34 <pbrobinson> jlinton: oh, cool, didn't see my dracut PR land in fedora, it did upstream, what's the issues with regulators?
15:09:51 <pbrobinson> jlinton: also anything outstanding you're aware of for 48bit VA?
15:09:57 <jlinton> Its the Hisi655x, the pmic and regulator are in two modules
15:10:07 <jlinton> and the regulator portion doesn't get auto loaded,
15:10:11 <pbrobinson> what are they called?
15:10:16 <jlinton> I posted another patch last night
15:10:39 <pbrobinson> upstream or on a RHBZ bug? Can you provide a link/bug?
15:11:12 <jlinton> https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/3/21/22
15:11:27 <pbrobinson> also gnome has now moved to mozjs38 so it looks like we don't have any more users of mozjs31 so I'm hoping to get it killed so we don't inadvertently get more
15:12:19 <jlinton> Sounds good with mozjs/gnome
15:12:56 <jlinton> I can probably post some more patches for polkitd
15:13:10 <jlinton> so at least system critical stuff isn't 4 years out of date.
15:13:55 <pbrobinson> jlinton: that would be great, I think the last patches you posted were to mozjs24, will the other patches be to newer?
15:14:31 <jlinton> I will see about moving it to 38 or newer
15:14:51 <jlinton> there isn't much on mozjs24,
15:14:55 <pbrobinson> jlinton++ that would be awesome
15:14:55 <zodbot> pbrobinson: Karma for jlinton changed to 1 (for the f25 release cycle):  https://badges.fedoraproject.org/tags/cookie/any
15:15:30 <pwhalen> any other userspace issues?
15:16:01 <pbrobinson> looking at my notes on mozjs24 it's cinnamon (likely they can reuse/rebase the gnome patches) and erlang-js which recently moved there from the original js
15:18:06 <pwhalen> #topic 2) ==== Kernel Status ====
15:18:34 <pwhalen> #info kernel-4.11.0-0.rc3.git0.1.fc26
15:18:34 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=870889
15:18:59 <pbrobinson> so 4.10.x is now in Fedora 25
15:19:31 <pbrobinson> I've done some testing and it looks OK to me, please provide feedback and/or let me know if you see issues. Latest is 4.10.4
15:19:46 <pbrobinson> in rawhide/f26 we're at 4.11rc3
15:20:03 <pwhalen> we also had some issues with 4.11.0-0.rc2.git0.1.fc26 on aarch64 and allwinner armhfp. its fixed in kernel-4.11.0-0.rc2.git2.2.fc26, which will likely be in Alpha
15:20:21 <pbrobinson> again looks reasonable to me so please test all three mentioned kernels
15:20:42 <pwhalen> #info Please test and report any issues to the list or #fedora-arm
15:21:20 <pwhalen> Ive booted rc3 on a bunch of armhfp boards and the mustang. looks ok so far.
15:21:32 <pwhalen> any concerns or issues not mentioned?
15:22:25 <pbrobinson> mostly seems good in my testing
15:22:40 <pwhalen> #topic 3) ==== Bootloader Status ====
15:22:53 <pwhalen> I think we're good here, anything to mention?
15:23:38 <pwhalen> grub2 pxe issue will be resolved next build, not an alpha blocker.
15:24:02 <pbrobinson> nothing of real note here, test u-boot 2017.03
15:25:01 <pbrobinson> I'm aiming to ship GA with 2017.05 as we should have a decent window
15:25:24 <pbrobinson> will be testing a bunch of the aarch64 support in the next week or so
15:26:15 <pwhalen> #info Please test uboot-tools-2017.03 on your favourite board. Report any issues to the mailing list or #fedora-arm.
15:26:37 <pwhalen> #topic 4) ==== F26 Testing ====
15:26:47 <pwhalen> #info Testing so far(armhfp):  https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Fedora_26_Alpha_1.1_Summary
15:26:47 <pwhalen> #info Testing so far(aarch64): https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/AArch64/QA/Fedora_26_Alpha_1.1
15:27:27 <pwhalen> #info All ARM disk image composes fail (BZ#1420520).
15:28:02 <pwhalen> this kept coming up but is being fixed once and for all for the next compose
15:28:19 <pbrobinson> I'd hope so... it seems like a broken record
15:28:29 <pwhalen> #info kernel 4.11.0-0.rc2.git0.1.fc26 oops on Allwinner SoCs (BZ#1432667). Fixed in kernel-4.11.0-0.rc2.git2.2.fc26.
15:28:45 <pwhalen> #info Full list of blockers:
15:28:45 <pwhalen> #link https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/26/alpha/buglist
15:30:02 <pwhalen> compose is expected today, go no-go on Thursday.
15:30:26 <pwhalen> any other issues not listed in the blocker bugs?
15:31:34 <pbrobinson> not that I'm aware of, jlinton rric anything you're aware of?
15:32:26 <jlinton> pbrobinson: I have open defects for the critical stuff
15:32:38 <jlinton> the llvmpipe and seattle issue have been resolved
15:32:49 <pbrobinson> jlinton: can you provide links/bugs
15:32:59 <pbrobinson> just in case they've slipped through the gaps
15:33:14 <jlinton> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1430912
15:33:23 <rric> pbrobinson, nothing aware of
15:33:40 <jlinton> That one is nonstop warnings with network traffic that basically brings the machine to a crawl
15:33:48 <jlinton> it should be fixed in mainline/rc3
15:34:04 <jlinton> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1429050
15:34:47 <jlinton> is a problem with LLVM's JIT that causes crashes in mesa/llvmpipe, which is a failure to clear the top 16 bits of registers
15:38:06 <pwhalen> thanks jlinton
15:38:14 <pwhalen> #topic 5) == Open Floor ==
15:38:27 <pwhalen> anything for open floor?
15:38:52 <pbrobinson> jlinton: can you please make sure any bugs you file for arm stuff are blocked against ARMTracker bug so people get notified
15:39:36 <jlinton> I'm a little confused about the arm tracker vs the arm64 tracker
15:39:51 <jlinton> I generally block them against the arm64 tracker
15:40:50 <pbrobinson> jlinton: there is no longer an arm64 tracker, that was pure bootstrap efforts tracker, the only tracker to care about has alias ARMTracker
15:41:10 <jlinton> Ok
15:41:14 <pbrobinson> jlinton: but then you didn't block the kernel one against any ;-)
15:42:20 <jlinton> Yah, I need to figure out how to automate it .. :)
15:42:29 <pwhalen> heh : )
15:43:22 <pwhalen> ok, last call..
15:44:06 <jlinton> Is there a bug for the maxima problem?
15:45:13 <pwhalen> jlinton, I didnt see one, but there is a thread on the mailing list. looking for a bz#
15:45:42 <pwhalen> mailing list - https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@lists.fedoraproject.org/message/3G3JPBKEPMIYVOA6UT23THWYDVYQAQGX/
