13:01:13 <jki> hi all!
13:01:22 <patersonc[m]> Afternoon
13:01:27 <uli> hello
13:01:32 <josiah> Hi
13:01:33 <masami> hi
13:03:22 <pave1> hi
13:05:18 <jki> ok, let's start
13:05:21 <jki> #topic AI review
13:05:31 <jki> 1. Request private KernelCI branches for CIP maintainers - patersonc
13:05:48 <patersonc[m]> Initial MR has been merged
13:05:55 <jki> yeah!
13:06:00 <patersonc[m]> https://github.com/kernelci/kernelci-core/pull/1022
13:06:25 <patersonc[m]> So now, "RC", Pavel and 5.10-rt branches will be monitored
13:06:30 <patersonc[m]> e.g. https://linux.kernelci.org/job/cip/branch/linux-5.10.y-cip-rt/
13:08:08 <pave1> Thanks!
13:09:33 <jki> ok, case closed? or do we need more?
13:09:50 <jki> except for trying it out maybe
13:10:15 <patersonc[m]> There is still uncertainty on how quickly KernelCI will pick up pushes
13:10:28 <patersonc[m]> But as you say, let's push something and give it a go
13:11:01 <pave1> Current infrastructure could test patches in about 15min
13:11:36 <pave1> But lets give it a go and open new AI if there are problems
13:12:35 <jki> perfect
13:13:31 <jki> 2. Make TSC motion regarding linux-4.4.y branch by CIP - jan
13:13:44 <jki> done, and we got the "go" for it
13:14:15 <jki> what's the status of following up on Greg's discontinuation email?
13:14:52 <pave1> I sent a draft to lists...
13:15:46 <jki> yes, I think that is fine to clarify the "considering" term on Greg's email
13:16:14 <jki> in addition, we could now also mention "our" linux-4.4.y branch and its purpose
13:16:30 <jki> and, obviously create it
13:16:43 <pave1> Might be good.
13:17:02 <pave1> I'd be inclined to send something now
13:17:29 <pave1> and then follow up when branches are created.
13:17:39 <jki> yes, that would make sense to me as well
13:17:58 <patersonc[m]> yea
13:18:03 <pave1> We also want to do similar announcements on -rt side.
13:18:12 <jki> ack
13:19:31 <jki> pavel: so far, you were benefiting from the pre-intergration of stable-rt - that extra effort is manageable still
13:20:20 <pave1> Well have to try and see.
13:21:00 <pave1> I guess we'll be fine unless something complex hits 4.9rt
13:21:15 <jki> right - and maybe worth to share work on that whenever possible
13:21:37 <pave1> Most of -rt releases are "no rt specific changes"
13:23:23 <jki> ok - then I note that pavel will send the follow-up email soon, to stable and -rt
13:23:50 <pave1> ok
13:23:57 <jki> tia!
13:24:14 <jki> 3. Draft press announcement about 5.10 release and 4.4 self-maintenance - jan
13:24:39 <jki> still need to work on that... and remind Neal to provide some template
13:25:19 <jki> any AI I missed?
13:25:58 <jki> #topic Kernel maintenance updates
13:26:18 <pave1> I was reviewing 5.10.97 to 100.
13:26:21 <uli> done with 5.10.94
13:26:38 <masami> There was 5 new CVEs this week.
13:27:12 <pave1> .100 was very small, but I guess we'll have more really soon.
13:30:21 <jki> anything else?
13:30:56 <jki> 3
13:30:59 <jki> 2
13:31:01 <jki> 1
13:31:04 <jki> #topic Kernel testing
13:31:40 <patersonc[m]> Not much news other than previously shared
13:32:42 <jki> ok - no outages etc. as well?
13:33:14 <patersonc[m]> There's a few boards offline, but nothing major
13:33:31 <patersonc[m]> At some point lab-cip-renesas will go offline for a day, but I'll let everyone know when I get round to it
13:33:41 <patersonc[m]> (needs a big tidyup)
13:34:09 <pave1> We are hiting gmp.h problem with 5.10.100.
13:34:39 <patersonc[m]> Yes, still need to fix that
13:34:40 <pave1> It will become major problem once we do 5.10-cip release.
13:34:51 <patersonc[m]> I gave feedback to iwamatsu-san on his MR to use the debian compiler
13:35:00 <patersonc[m]> Not sure it's progressed past that yet though
13:36:49 <jki> is this blocking? can we help him (if he has no time)?
13:37:38 <patersonc[m]> MR: https://gitlab.com/cip-project/cip-testing/linux-cip-ci/-/merge_requests/53
13:37:50 <pave1> It is not major problem yet
13:38:19 <jki> ok, fine
13:38:35 <jki> anything else?

13:39:13 <jki> #topic AOB
13:39:29 <jki> anyone anything?
13:41:27 <patersonc[m]> Nope
13:41:32 <jki> well, if not, I guess we can close :)
