jki1. Resolve/ignore failures of KernelCI on 4.4-cip - alicefm12:03
alicefflo sended a pull request12:03
alicefI did the review and testing process12:04
alicefgtucker will do the final check late today or tomorrow12:04
jkiso, the direction makes sense for everyone so far?12:05
alicefthe pull request looks filtering correctly the cip 4.4 errors12:05
aliceffrom the not needed builds12:05
jkiok, good12:05
jkiI suppose we need some more PRs after that, right?12:06
alicefwe had some error in test results that there wasn't on the previous builds would be nice to check on that12:07
jkipavel: are you aware of that already?12:07
alicefand some warnings from builds12:07
pave1jki: No, I'm not following that closely. I'll be happy when I see kernelci results with 0 fails :-).12:08
pave1jki: Plus, we'll likely want same work on 4.19 and 5.10.12:08
jkisure, one after the other I think though12:08
pave1jki: Yes, one after the other.12:08
jkialicefm: can you point pavel to the new errors/warnings you saw?12:09
alicefwe hav this warnings:12:10
alicef149net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:608:68: warning: suggest parentheses around ‘+’ in operand of ‘&’ [-Wparentheses]12:10
pave1Yep, that one is probably real, I've seen it before and uli pointed it out in the review.12:10
alicefhttps://gist.github.com/aliceinwire/6fdbe6e4269887f37f986e9771d63793/493c2b455ede3da9cd512fa1ce1cd7c95ac22de412:10
alicef149 builds warnings about that12:11
pave1Let's talk about that in the testing topic?12:11
alicefsure12:12
jkiok12:12
jki2. Check cip devices on kernelci old pull request - patersonc12:12
jkino updates here according to chris12:12

jki#topic Kernel maintenance updates12:14
*** collab-meetbot` changes topic to "Kernel maintenance updates (Meeting topic: CIP IRC weekly meeting)"12:14
pave1I did 5.10.134 reviews, and -rt releases for 4.19 / 5.10.12:14
masamiThis week reported 5 new CVEs and 5 updated CVEs. no notable new CVEs.12:14
ulii'm backporting patches to 4.412:14
pave1I believe we should do 4.4 release at this point.12:14
jkirelease before those backports?12:15
jkior after them?12:16
ulithey are fixes for xen, not sure if those should hold the release back12:16
pave1I'd vote for before. Those backports is some kind of Xen CVEs, and there's always more to backport.12:16
jkido we have Xen in support scope btw?12:17
pave1(But maybe we should start tracking "what do we need to fix in 4.4" with CVE tracking).12:17
pave1jki: We have XEN enabled in few configs. I'm not sure people are using it...12:20
pave1qemu_arm64_defconfig:CONFIG_XEN=y12:20
pave1arm64/renesas_defconfig:CONFIG_XEN=y12:20
pave1x86/siemens_server_defconfig:CONFIG_NETXEN_NIC=m12:20
pave1...etc.12:20
jkibut arm64 is not in scope for 4.412:20
jkiand NETXEN != Xen12:22
pave1Well, scripts marked it as "used" in 4.9 and I did not investigate further...12:23
jkiplease don't waste our time on Xen for 4.412:23
pave1I'd need to take a look why scripts say it is enabled.12:24
jkiat least from a quick scan of 4.4 configs, i don't see any reason12:25
pave1Anyway I wish it was disabled in 4.19/5.10 too. If noone cares for 4.4, it is unlikely they care for later kernels.12:25
jkiarm64 might be different - but let's bring that up on the list12:26
jkipavel: will you do?12:26
pave1Ok, will do.12:26
jkithanks12:27
jkianything else kernel maintenance?12:27

jki#topic Kernel testing12:29
*** collab-meetbot` changes topic to "Kernel testing (Meeting topic: CIP IRC weekly meeting)"12:29
alicefI made a difference file with old build and new build differences here:12:29
alicefhttps://gist.github.com/aliceinwire/251b324fee1ce965d51db0b72f5dd011/revisions?diff=unified#diff-a92e01a033c084e6b1364a6737dd4c25de3a2905616d4e97b4b418d4fb67ab9b12:30
alicefin summary the previous build errors looks dissapeared and the new net/ipv4/inet_hashtables.c:608:68: warning: suggest parentheses around ‘+’ in operand of ‘&’ [-Wparentheses] build warning appeared12:30
pave1Yes, so that's from "tcp: change source port randomizarion at connect() time".12:31
pave1These are some kinds of tcp privacy fixes.12:31
pave1WRITE_ONCE(table_perturb[index], READ_ONCE(table_perturb[index]) + (i + 2) & ~1);12:31
pave1In particular, uli believes it should be "+ ((i + 2) & ~1)" and I'm more inclined to (READ_ONCE() + i + 2) & ~1 :-)12:32
pave1So... more reviews would not bad.12:33
alicefthere is a mail about this ?12:33
pave1Also, running some kind of tests to ensure TCP still works with these and that the privacy issues are indeed closed would not be bad.12:33
jkidoesn't kernelci do sufficient tcp tests for us?12:34
pave1The mail was "4.4-st20 -- Re: [cip-dev] Failures in 5.10, 4.4 testing".12:34
alicefif the test can be included to kselftest or ltp KernelCI will pickup it12:35
alicefeventually12:35
jkiso, there no such tests in any of them yet?12:36
jkior we are not running that yet?12:37
alicefwe are not filtering out any test12:37
alicefso we are running everything kernelci have12:37
alicefthat's mostly this https://staging.kernelci.org/test/job/cip/branch/linux-4.4.y-cip/kernel/v4.4.302-cip69-517-g92709d8ae585/12:37
alicefat this time12:37
pave1For reference, that is issues/CVE-2022-32296.yml and issues/CVE-2022-1012.yml AFAICT.12:38
alicefthey are improving new tests frequently12:38
alicefspectre meltdown check script also had a some problems on one of the board https://staging.kernelci.org/test/plan/id/62e1181f97e5190630e19dcb/ and they are some kind of regression from 4.4 cip65 to cip 6912:40
pave1I don't see a TCP related test in the list, much less testing TCP privacy issues...12:41
alicefno just talking about 4.4 problems not related with tcp12:41
alicefbut still regression12:41
alicefright in the list there is not a tcp related test or tcp privacy12:42
alicefis something probably that shoud be improved12:43
alicefkselftest have such tests ?12:43
alicefor ltp12:43
alicefif yes we can try to enable such test on kernelci12:43
pave1I'm not familiar with kselftest or ltp. I guess wget in a loop would be basic test of tcp functionality.12:44
pave1As for +https://staging.kernelci.org/test/plan/id/62e1181f97e5190630e19dcb/ , testing for spectre/meltdown on qemu... is not something I'd consider useful.12:45
alicefI see12:45
pave1If we wanted to debug this further, standard questions would be "can you bisect it"?12:45
alicefsorry we mixed a bit problems togheter. which one are talking about ?12:46
alicefsmc?12:47
pave1smc.12:47
pave1But the fact that it detect problems on qemu is kind of a hint that it is test that is broken.12:47
alicefsmc test is broken?12:48
alicefsmc test is the same used by gitlab only more updated12:48
pave1Looks like so. It is hard to believe that qemu would have spectre/metdown problem.12:48
alicefhttps://github.com/speed47/spectre-meltdown-checker12:49
jkiany other topics?12:51
pave1If you are confident there's a problem in kernel, we can try to debug it. But qemu is not a place where I'd expect it to appear.12:51
alicefok12:52
ulii find that a bit odd. a bug in the cpu emulation is the first thing i would suspect...12:52
aliceflet's maybe recheck it after flo patch get merged upstream12:52
alicefand we get the results from kernelci stable12:53
jkiok, move on?12:54

jkiseems like we are all happy... ;-)12:58
pave1Happy :-).12:58
jkinext CIP kernel and related efforts will likely be a topic again12:58
jkiI would also use the chance to ask around for 4.4 usage of our members12:59
jkianother call for more contributions to testing...12:59
