About having a git group account in kernel.org 08:21:08 <sangorrin> it will be good to run LTP cve tests often 08:21:08 <patersonc> Are there any specific test cases for it? 08:21:33 <sangorrin> i think the spectre bugs appear in /proc somewhere 08:22:11 <sangorrin> so we could add a test checking /proc/cpuinfo 08:22:14 <toscalix> szlin: no about that point no 08:22:53 <sangorrin> also in /sys/devices/system/cpu/vulnerabilities/l1tf 08:23:01 <toscalix> szlin: I thought it was solved. I mean, we were going to ask 08:23:41 <sangorrin> toscalix: wagner mentioned an email address 08:24:00 * toscalix have a release next week. I have been disconnected the last few days 08:24:00 <sangorrin> https://www.kernel.org/category/contact-us.html 08:24:43 <sangorrin> the problem is that we need someone with reputation to back us, so Ben could help us with that 08:24:52 <szlin> toscalix: sorry, I don't get it. who will ask group account in kernel.org for CIP 08:26:09 <toscalix> szlin: should it be Ben? 08:26:21 <toscalix> or somebody with certain level of representation will? 08:26:32 <toscalix> who will manage it? 08:27:14 <szlin> ok, I suggest to discuss this topic in TSC meeting next Monday 08:27:18 <sangorrin> toscalix: good point, maybe we can wait until the next kernel maintainer is completely decided 08:28:21 <patersonc> TSC should probably set it up, but having Ben's/Greg's ack would help 08:29:03 <toscalix> patersonc: agree. I believe there is a mail I sent last week about it and Ben haven't answered it. I will ping him about it 08:29:13 <patersonc> Thanks 08:29:42 <patersonc> o/ 08:30:12 <szlin> #action Agustin will ping Ben for the feedback of git group account in kernel.org 08:30:59 <szlin> patersonc: please 08:31:15 <szlin> any other point? 08:31:16 <patersonc> If CIP chooses v4.19 for the next Kernel, when do you think we'd aim to make the first v4.19.y-cip release? 08:32:01 <sangorrin> it would be nice to have support for RX-G1M as soon as it is released 08:32:09 <sangorrin> RZ i mean 08:33:12 <patersonc> RZ/G1M should be supported by default as it is upstreamed 08:33:21 <sangorrin> that's great 08:33:32 <szlin> I think it depends on the maintainer of 4.19 in CIP. AFAIK, we don't have release policy about that. 08:33:35 <patersonc> RZ/G2M will not be, as we're still upstreaming it. First patches will hit v4.20 08:33:42 <szlin> (please correct me if I'm wrong 08:34:05 <patersonc> szlin: I don't think there is a policy, no. 08:35:37 <szlin> patersonc: so you may contact maintainer of 4.19.y in CIP for that 08:36:08 <patersonc> Okay 08:36:23 <szlin> any other point? 08:36:26 <szlin> 3 08:36:27 <szlin> 2 08:36:28 <szlin> 1 08:36:31 <szlin> #topic kernel testing 08:37:18 <szlin> Any update? 08:37:25 <toscalix> rajm ? 08:37:54 * toscalix pnging rajm 08:38:06 <szlin> thanks. let's move forward 08:38:11 <szlin> #topic AOB 08:38:12 <toscalix> meanwhile, I have a question 08:38:20 <szlin> please 08:38:23 <toscalix> about kernel testing 08:38:56 <toscalix> is there a prospect date to have the infra in place for testing it? 08:41:03 <rajm> sorry - missed the ping 08:41:26 <toscalix> a line or two of your recent progress? 08:42:46 <rajm> to give a late update - moving forward with containering the kernelci and LAVA - some issues with networking and inter docker package communication 08:43:15 <rajm> now that I'm back off a week away I'll look to addressing there - thanks 08:43:33 <toscalix> where can we follow progress? 08:44:09 <toscalix> tickets to follow? 08:44:11 <rajm> hopefully here, and in the ticket / journal 08:44:18 <rajm> just a mo 08:44:18 <sangorrin> rajm: are you using compose? one reason it may not communicate is if you don't put the compose version 08:44:41 <rajm> I am using compose 08:45:18 * ** moxavictor has quit IRC 08:45:19 <rajm> journal at https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/civilinfrastructureplatform/journal 08:45:34 <toscalix> https://gitlab.com/cip-project/cip-testing/testing/issues/192 08:45:54 <rajm> I was using lucj's version which uses compose in the start.sh script but I'm still finding issues 08:46:29 <szlin> toscalix: we want to build the infra. at our own site in Q1/ Q2 next year, and we're working on it. 08:46:32 <toscalix> and check related issues 08:46:46 <szlin> Align with CIP testing is our next step. 08:46:55 <rajm> thanks toscalix (and #197) 08:47:18 <szlin> patersonc: sangorrin do you have any prospect date to have the infra in place for testing it? 08:47:19 <toscalix> in order for each one of us to align, we need to know details about the CIP infra 08:47:26 <sangorrin> rajm: I added stuff for proxy's in lucj's version. I hope i didnt break that :) 08:48:24 <rajm> sangorrin: I'll check the commits - the kernelci looks fine it's 'just' an inability to download any builds 08:48:27 <sangorrin> szlin: i don't have time to maintain a lab, I use fuego for testing CIP 08:48:36 <patersonc> szlin: We're currently trying to get B@D up and running for iwg20m behind our firewalls etc. Next step is to get a lava-slave up and running for CIP. 08:48:46 <patersonc> (thanks to rajm for his help) 08:48:47 <szlin> thanks. 08:49:06 <rajm> ta patersonc! 08:49:07 <toscalix> sangorrin: we do not either. We hope to use B@D and send results to the central infra 08:49:23 <sangorrin> rajm: yes i have seen that problem 08:49:40 <sangorrin> i think you still can access the builds if you input the url by hand 08:49:40 <patersonc> There is already a central kernelci server, so I guess B@D could be configured to report there? 08:49:45 <sangorrin> but the links are wrong 08:49:49 <toscalix> patersonc: yes 08:50:14 <patersonc> https://kernelci.ciplatform.org/ 08:50:36 <toscalix> \o/ 08:50:52 <rajm> ah - they're trying to pull off the local docker and they need to use one of the other instances 08:51:09 <sangorrin> toscalix: yeah, the central infra is what i am waiting for as well 08:51:59 <patersonc> We need to assign a KernelCI maintainer/admin I guess. 08:52:25 <sangorrin> patersonc: yes, someone that assigns the tokens etc 08:52:30 <toscalix> patersonc: yes 08:52:33 <patersonc> Does anyone have and experience with KernelCI? 08:53:40 <toscalix> patersonc: since this person needs to be assigned internally, because it will require some work, this is the perfect topic to raise at TSC 08:53:46 <sangorrin> patersonc: I have a little of experience, but not as much as rajm or robert 08:53:55 <patersonc> toscalix: I was about to say that :) 08:54:17 <toscalix> it cannot be on best effort basis. It requires internal support from the company to do this 08:54:28 <szlin> #action discuss the KernelCI maintainer/admin at TSC meeting 08:54:30 <rajm> Needs to do some looking on those issues - I was thinking it might need knowlege of the guts of the system but maybe not 08:55:16 <sangorrin> in agl the maintenance is done by kernelci creators, isn't it? 08:55:42 <toscalix> there is a contract in place and jan-simon also helps 08:55:59 <toscalix> but the contract is not just for this, but for other tasks also 08:56:34 <toscalix> I would assume a CIP Member would contribute with a person for this 08:57:06 <sangorrin> do you mean at full time? 08:57:10 <patersonc> szlin: The TSC topic should cover all testing infrastructure (e.g. lava master), not just KernelCI 08:57:22 <toscalix> since every company tests kernels, so this can be a good place to learn or an easy infra to maintain if you are already maintaining one 08:57:27 <patersonc> sangorrin: I wouldn't have thought so 08:57:54 <toscalix> sangorrin: no full time no, but more time at the beginning, less overtime 08:57:55 <szlin> #undo 08:58:25 <szlin> #action discuss the testing infra. including maintainer/admin at TSC meeting 08:58:28 * toscalix need to go 08:58:39 <szlin> any other point? 08:58:45 <szlin> 3 08:58:46 <szlin> 2 08:58:48 <szlin> 1 08:58:51 <szlin> #endmeeting
