15:02:34 <pwhalen> ok, lets get started
15:02:41 <pwhalen> #topic 0) ==== Fedora Linux 35 released today! ====
15:02:50 <pwhalen> #link https://fedoramagazine.org/announcing-fedora-35/
15:03:03 <pwhalen> #link Hardware status - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Fedora_Linux_35
15:03:26 <pwhalen> Feel free to update and add more hardware if its not listed.
15:04:00 <pwhalen> Does anyone have anything to add for the F35 release?
15:04:21 <coremodule> I could add the RockPro 64 board
15:05:35 <pwhalen> Please do :)
15:05:51 <pwhalen> #topic 1) ==== Userspace Status  ====
15:06:24 <pwhalen> Any new user space issues to discuss?
15:06:30 <pbrobinson> nothing I'm aware of here
15:06:47 <pwhalen> #info No new issues reported.
15:07:02 <pwhalen> Nor I
15:07:56 <pwhalen> #topic 2) ==== Kernel Status ====
15:08:09 <pwhalen> #info kernel-5.15.0-60.fc36
15:08:09 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1850756
15:08:35 <pwhalen> 5.15 is GA this week, I've started to test more hardware now that F35 is out.
15:09:00 <pwhalen> nirik: seems RC7 looks better for aarch VMs?
15:09:21 <nirik> yeah, rawhide worked with it, so they booted. ;) we could close that bug I guess...
15:10:17 <pbrobinson> fab
15:10:33 <pwhalen> looks like the amhfp btrfs issue remains
15:12:49 <pwhalen> I cant find the bug offhand, I wonder if the backtrace looked at all like the aarch64 issues in cloud
15:13:32 <pwhalen> nirik: did you have another issue?
15:14:33 <pwhalen> #info kernel-5.14.15-300.fc35
15:14:33 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1849252
15:14:42 <pwhalen> #info Please test and report any issues to the list or #fedora-arm.
15:15:13 <nirik> oh, I have a lot of issues... but you meant arm ones? ;)
15:15:33 <nirik> https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2006295 is the armv7 btrfs one
15:16:23 <pwhalen> don't we all? : )
15:16:25 <nirik> I have not yet tried builders on f35. I suppose I will try armv7 with latest kernel and see if they work or not ( I am not optomistic)
15:16:48 <pbrobinson> I just can't help but feel these underlying btrfs issues aren't just arm, it's just tickling them more effectively
15:17:42 <nirik> yeah, could well be.
15:19:35 <pwhalen> thanks nirik
15:20:12 <pwhalen> I think patches were submitted for the aarch64 cloud issue?
15:20:39 <nirik> not sure what all happened with that
15:21:45 <pwhalen> Looks like still testing the fix, but it looks promising
15:22:20 <pbrobinson> there was patches for testing and getting more debug, I've not seen a proper fix
15:22:53 <pwhalen> ah, Ok. Thanks.
15:23:02 <pwhalen> Any other kernel news for today?
15:24:02 <pwhalen> #topic 3) ==== Bootloader Status ====
15:25:42 <pwhalen> I don't see any changes here.
15:26:01 <pwhalen> Uboot-tools-2022.01-rc1 is available, but not yet built in Fedora.
15:26:28 <pwhalen> #topic 4) ==== Fedora 36 ====
15:27:08 <pwhalen> Anything to mention for F36? Planned changes?
15:27:51 <pbrobinson> I'm not rushing to build 2022.01 as yet
15:28:03 <pbrobinson> I'm looking at doing another 2021.10 build first
15:28:42 <pbrobinson> no arm specific changes planned for f36 as yet, I have a few changes in general I'm thinking of
15:29:00 <pwhalen> Ok, sounds good.
15:29:18 <pwhalen> #topic 5)  == Open Floor ==
15:29:21 <pwhalen> Anything else for today?
15:31:42 <pbrobinson> not from me
15:32:15 <pwhalen> nirik: anything you wanted to add?
15:32:58 <nirik> I was thinking about asking if anyone had ideas on how to approach 64bit kernel on 32bit userspace or mock/container... but thats a can o worms
15:35:17 <pwhalen> A barrel of worms. Not sure either.
15:37:33 <pwhalen> Something we'll have to revisit at a future meeting.
