Thanks jki 13:09:28 it is a good news. 13:10:01 Interesting note is that projected EOL is same for 5.10 and 6.1. 13:10:07 That will be rather busy December for us. 13:10:12 yes 13:10:28 OTOH, the value of the CIP kernel increases again 13:11:56 I guess the testing team should do the emailing? Alternatively I can do it if I know what to write there. 13:12:17 "We'll likely maintain 6.1 in future, so we'll start testing it in near future?" :-) 13:12:43 even better would be if we started already 13:13:38 "we will likely select 6.1 as the next CIP kernel" 13:14:27 so, does this AI effective depend on the first AI? 13:14:46 We'll get the testing in place, then start reporting back on the stable-rc reviews 13:15:02 The project can announce support for 6.1-cip when it's ready to officially decide 13:15:42 once we do the reporting, it is still valuable to highlight this 13:15:48 ok 13:16:01 anything else? 13:16:37 3 13:16:39 2 13:16:41 1 13:16:43 #topic Kernel maintenance updates 13:17:02 now reviewing 5.10.168 13:17:05 I did reviews on 5.10.166, 167, 168. 13:17:08 This week reported 4 new CVEs and 2 updated CVEs. 13:17:36 I'll be travelling next week, so may not make it to the meetings. 13:17:43 I reviewed 5.10.166 and 167. 13:19:59 anything else? 13:20:24 3 13:20:26 2 13:20:28 1 13:20:31 #topic Kernel release status 13:20:35 - 4.4 13:21:13 pave1 released 4.4.302-cip72-rt42 13:22:45 ok 13:22:49 - 4.19 13:23:46 About RT, RT team had been released v4.19.271-rt120. We can sync this version 13:24:09 I believe RT is due to next month, so no need to do anything now? 13:25:12 formally correct 13:25:37 Yes, I think so. 13:26:13 then we are on schedule 13:26:15 - 5.10 13:26:44 And LTS is 272. I will release cip version with this. 13:27:29 about 5.10, on schedule. 13:28:06 Last -rt was on Jan 19, so we have few more days. 13:28:19 I will release cip version with 5.10.167 in this week. 13:28:24 ok 13:28:29 good 13:28:33 #topic Kernel testing 13:29:32 I've spent some more time this week on sorting out our LAVA version upgrade 13:30:06 update the PR on kernelci for using cip-kernel-config both with 5.10.y-cip and 4.4.y-cip 13:30:07 I've seen a few instances where it doesn't load properly though with some of the database migrations. I'm still investigating this. 13:30:10 https://github.com/kernelci/kernelci-core/pull/1705 13:30:47 Here's a question for you all - how long do we want to keep test job logs for on LAVA? 13:32:04 how long are they kept now? 13:32:26 Currently forever 13:32:44 And the database/logs are over 6GB, which is a bit big 13:33:19 I'd like to cut it all down, but it depends on what our requirements are 13:33:37 Forever is good :-). Could we move them to some kind of archive after a year, for example? 13:34:18 We can keep a backup of the database/logs, but it wouldn't be browsable from within LAVA 13:34:37 We'd have to either manually untar the logs and search, or load it back up in another LAVA instance 13:34:41 Perhaps it is not the period, but the question of which log to record. 13:35:07 I'd say that browsable for year is enough, but I would keep the tars... 13:35:25 +1 13:35:38 The database/logs get backed up to AWS every night, so we have that 13:35:59 I'll set up a cron to cull jobs older than a year from the "production" database 13:36:05 I see. 13:36:16 That should speed things up a lot when taking/restoring backups 13:36:50 We can adjust the time period in future if we change our mind 13:36:52 Thanks all 13:37:27 OK. one year is enough, I think. 13:39:16 Okie Dokie 13:39:40 anything else on testing? 13:39:59 Not from me 13:42:00 3 13:42:01 2 13:42:03 1 13:42:06 #topic AOB 13:45:17 anyone any topic? 13:46:24 3 13:46:26 2 13:46:28 1 13:46:30 #endmeeting
