15:00:21 <pwhalen> #topic roll call
15:00:33 <pwhalen> good morning folks, who's here today?
15:01:08 <tdawson> Howdy
15:01:41 <pwhalen> howdy tdawson
15:01:48 * nirik waves, interested in his armv7 virt bug. ;)
15:01:50 * pbrobinson o/
15:03:00 * pwhalen waits a few moments for others to join
15:03:13 * jlinton waves
15:04:57 <pwhalen> ok, lets get started.
15:05:13 <pwhalen> nirik, I wish I had an update to provide.
15:05:36 <pwhalen> I was able to reproduce the success with f29 GA, but I dont know that its gone anywhere
15:07:12 <pwhalen> #topic 1) ==== Userspace Status  ====
15:07:31 <pwhalen> how's testing been going for everyone? any new bugs to discuss?
15:08:23 <tdawson> Nothing that is arm specific from me
15:08:26 <pwhalen> I think we've had some reports of dnf misbehaving, I havent had any issues myself
15:08:38 <pwhalen> tdawson, that is always good news
15:08:46 <jlinton> Well for me, F30 has been behaving quite well, but I haven't been looking to hard for bugs, just basic functionality
15:09:19 <pbrobinson> I've had a couple of devices segfaulting but having just got back from 2.5 weeks of travel in PTO I'm still catching up
15:09:33 <pwhalen> jlinton, great, kick those tires as hard as you can in the next week
15:09:54 <pbrobinson> but overall I think we're looking good
15:09:57 <pwhalen> has anyone else seen segfaulting when doing a simple update?
15:10:10 <pbrobinson> the issue with mozjs60 on aarch64 has been closed
15:10:15 <jlinton> No, but it seems the mirrors have been a little bumpy lately
15:10:29 <pbrobinson> jlinton: what was the latest on firefox on armv7?
15:11:16 <jlinton> Its where I left it before connect, i'm trying to get a toolchain person to look at ld.gold and why its still throwing messages about being out of map space despite an option to avoid mapping the output file
15:11:58 <jlinton> (or we can build it in a container... <chuckle>
15:13:02 <pwhalen> heh, thanks jlinton, much appreciated that you've kept looking at that.
15:13:22 <pwhalen> any other user space issues to discuss?
15:13:50 <pbrobinson> jlinton: do we have a RHBZ bug for the gold issue?
15:14:14 <jlinton> Uh, not outside of the firefox one
15:14:34 <jlinton> (i've been avoiding looking at the ld code, but that is the next step)
15:14:50 <pbrobinson> jlinton: might be useful to file a separate one and make it a dep to this one that way the RH toolchain team should take a look
15:15:03 <pbrobinson> they're generally pretty responsive
15:15:07 <jlinton> Ok, thats sounds like a good idea
15:15:51 <pwhalen> #topic 2) ==== Kernel Status ====
15:16:07 <pwhalen> #info F30: kernel-5.0.7-300.fc30
15:16:07 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1246759
15:16:17 <pbrobinson> I think we're looking pretty decent here
15:16:26 <pwhalen> same, does anyone disagree?
15:16:41 <pbrobinson> I've got a few possible things that might be useful to get in but I'm still catching up
15:17:30 <pwhalen> #info F31: kernel-5.1.0-0.rc5.git0.1.fc31
15:17:30 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1250220
15:17:49 <pwhalen> in f31 we have 5.1 rc5.. admittedly not done much testing on 5.1
15:17:57 <pwhalen> will need to ramp that up
15:18:25 <pwhalen> also worth checking if 5.1 rc5 looks any better for the armv7 virt bug nirik mentioned early
15:18:39 <nirik> sure, worth a shot. ;)
15:18:42 * pwhalen continues to keep hope alive
15:18:57 <pwhalen> will report back likely tomorrow
15:19:01 <nirik> me too. I don't know how long I can keep them alive at this rate... it's gettiing harder and harder
15:19:22 <pbrobinson> the other option we have is to see if we can get a newer emag box, possibly via packet.net to see if we can recreate the problem there too
15:19:47 <nirik> I wouldn't be too surprised if it's moonshot specific.
15:20:06 <jlinton> What is the bug number?
15:20:20 <pwhalen> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1576593
15:21:23 * nirik tries to recall if he tried fedora as host.
15:22:25 <pwhalen> nirik, I did on the mustang iirc, same issue
15:22:37 <nirik> ok
15:23:37 <pwhalen> any other kernel news?
15:24:57 <pwhalen> #info Please test and report any issues to the list or #fedora-arm.
15:25:01 <pbrobinson> nothing off the top of my head
15:25:05 <pwhalen> #topic 3) ==== Bootloader Status ====
15:25:22 <pbrobinson> so I'm working on a build for 2019.04 GA
15:26:19 <pwhalen> I tested a scratch build yesterday on the Banana Pi, it fixed the sata boot issue were seeing with the RC's
15:26:41 <pwhalen> so we'll need to do a FE once thats ready
15:26:54 <pwhalen> otherwise everything else seems ok
15:27:52 <tdawson> Does the arm-image-installer fall under this subject, or Open Floor?
15:28:04 <pwhalen> tdawson, here is fine
15:28:08 <pwhalen> issues?
15:28:33 <tdawson> Nothing other than it looks like it needs to be updated to keep up with uboot.
15:28:34 <pbrobinson> we need to update the list of devices we write out
15:28:51 <tdawson> Yep
15:29:11 <tdawson> I was just wondering who updated it, or if it's more of a community type thing.
15:29:37 <pwhalen> I need to do another one, I can update the list. I was trying to reproduce the selinux issue that was reported last week
15:29:49 <pwhalen> tdawson, its me
15:30:06 <tdawson> I'd never used until about two weeks ago and was pleasently surprised at how nice it was, and then surprised again because on a different machine it was pointing at the wrong files.
15:30:26 <tdawson> pwhalen: Well, good job with it, I like it.
15:30:35 <pwhalen> tdawson, what machine?
15:30:48 <pbrobinson> tdawson: upstream is here https://pagure.io/arm-image-installer so feel free to open issues or even do PRs
15:31:04 <tdawson> rock machines
15:31:39 <tdawson> Oh ... just realized ... they weren't listed as supported, forgot about that.
15:31:57 <pbrobinson> tdawson: right, the rockchips stuff i still need to finish up the actual U-Boot bits
15:31:58 <pwhalen> ah, yea. need to add those. I've not had the best luck with them
15:33:22 <pwhalen> #topic 4) == F30 ==
15:33:45 <pwhalen> so final freeze is today (or last night?)
15:34:27 <pwhalen> #info Final Freeze - 2019-04-16
15:34:36 <pbrobinson> last night, we are now into freeze
15:34:42 <pwhalen> #info Fedora 30 Final Release (GA) (Preferred Target) - 2019-04-30
15:34:42 <pbrobinson> or we're now frozen
15:34:55 <pbrobinson> anyone aware of any such issues?
15:35:21 <pwhalen> #info Latest nominated nightly - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
15:35:21 <pwhalen> #info F30 Final Blockers
15:35:21 <pwhalen> #link https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/30/final/buglist
15:35:45 <pwhalen> I think the initial-setup bugs are all fixed
15:35:55 <pwhalen> but testing appreciate
15:35:56 <pwhalen> d
15:36:18 <jlinton> I need to test the updated gdb on the rpi
15:36:32 <jlinton> but I suspect since they ended up fixing gdm, the problem is still in sddm
15:36:42 <pbrobinson> I downloaded all of the nominated compose images I test thing morning
15:36:50 <jlinton> s/gdb/gdm
15:37:29 <pbrobinson> jlinton: there was a post to the devel list about some of that, what should now work and what still jhas issuess
15:39:06 <jlinton> i saw the testing request, was there another thread?
15:39:43 <pbrobinson> just trying to find it
15:40:23 <pbrobinson> there was a second one called "Basic graphics mode / 'nomodeset' testing request, round 2"
15:40:29 <jlinton> Our spam blocker doesn't like the fedora mailing lists so I frequently have to go hunting there for threads
15:40:39 <jlinton> yah the "round 2" one is the one I saw
15:41:56 <pwhalen> #info Please test and report any issues to the list or #fedora-arm.
