[06:19] <dja> heya - after making a change in debian.master/config/annotations, what do I need to do to propagate the changes to the config.${ARCH}. and config.ubuntu.common files?
[06:21] <apw> dja, the annotations are checks and balances against config*, those need to be updated directly
[06:21] <dja> apw, so I've edited annotations directly
[06:22] <dja> apw, how are the config.* files generated?
[06:22] <dja> for context, I'm playing with xdp on powerpc, which works much better if CONFIG_HAVE_EFFICIENT_UNALIGNED_ACCESS is set, which happens if we switch from CPU_POWER7 to CPU_POWER8.
[06:23] <dja> (IBM never shipped any production Power7 little-endian systems, so it's safe to make ppc64el Power8 only)
[06:24] <apw> dja, the annotations will have no effect, they are only used in tree for checking those entries marked enforced, and otherwise it is used outside for review purposed
[06:25] <apw> dja, to change config you need to change the entries in config.*
[06:26] <dja> apw, so just to check I've correctly understood you - I need to directly edit debian.master/config/$ARCH/config.common.$ARCH?
[06:26] <dja> I'm happy to do that, I just thought they were automatically generated somehow
[06:26] <apw> the easiest way to override a value for a specific flavour, is to add it to the specific flavour names config file
[06:27] <apw> then a fakeroot debian/rules updateconfig will rebalance the options into common if appropriate
[06:27] <dja> apw, ah, thanks; I was trying to figure out what the updateconfig target did
[06:27] <apw> the balanced configs are good for detecting change in review
[18:40] <mamarley> This isn't directly Ubuntu-related, but I was hoping someone here might could point me in the right direction.  I have found a regression in the media/rc subsystem of the kernel on the 4.12 mainline builds.  I bisected it and filed a bug, but no-one is paying any attention to the bug.  Does anyone know who I might poke about this?
[18:40] <mamarley> The commit is https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=e8f4818895b3d7f34b3e5852bce77b3257a27ecc, if it matters.


[04:50] <_diablo> How's everyone doing?
[04:59] <tonyyarusso> all right I suppose
[05:03] <_diablo> tonyyarusso: what are you up to?
[05:04] <tonyyarusso> _diablo: looking through old blog posts to see which ones I actually still care about
[05:07] <_diablo> tonyyarusso: are you going to delete them?
[05:07] <_diablo> or is it like an aggregator?
[05:09] <tonyyarusso> _diablo: Not so much delete as change published status.
[05:19] <_diablo> eh, i guess
[05:19] <_diablo> fair enough


[01:17] <elqeynn_> Hello everybody.
[01:18] <elqeynn_> My Alienware with ununtu, instead of SUSE works like WiFi. I have a top-notch consultant!

[03:11] <lotuspsychje> good morning
[03:41] <mannequin> boston dynamics make me poo my pants
[03:41] <daftykins> whilst interesting i don't think that's on-topic
[03:42] <mannequin> well it's a discussion channel, i thought we can discuss modern robotics
[03:42] <daftykins> read the topic a little more closely :)
[03:43] <mannequin> but i guess this is ubuntu related discussion only
[03:43] <mannequin> sure man, i have too many tabs open
[03:43] <lotuspsychje_> and troll a bit less
[03:44] <mannequin> i never troll
[03:44] <lotuspsychje_> too late, the logs told us different
[03:44] <mannequin> i guess our trolling definitions differ
[04:56] <oxfuxxx> ahoy.
[04:56] <mannequin> hi
[07:30] <ducasse> good morning
[14:44] <leftyfb> ogra_: it's a troll
[14:47] <ogra_> leftyfb, well, kind of between troll and clueless it seems
[14:47] <leftyfb> ogra_: nope, definitely a troll pretending to be clueless
[15:17] <leftyfb> ogra_: I am going to call them out on their B.S.  then they should be booted
[15:18] <oerheks> form to change password?
[15:39] <leftyfb> oerheks: I got this
[15:40] <oerheks> ok
