Includes fix for data abort when using the network in Uboot. 15:10:38 #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=918396 15:11:07 this needs wider testing, so please test on the device near and dear to your heart and report any issues you encounter 15:11:12 There is a bug in the latest edk2 for juno which causes grub to be unable to load the grub.cfg again. 15:12:08 Its been there since ~may. 15:12:15 woo! jlinton is there a bug report for it somewhere? 15:12:29 #info Bug in the latest edk2 for juno which causes grub to be unable to load the grub.cfg 15:12:40 is it purely juno or generic (ie could affect virt if it's rebased)? 15:13:00 No, I was seeing if the commit author had anything to say. But I will probably post a message to the mailing list about it RSN. 15:13:12 thanks jlinton 15:13:36 No, it appears to be in the PCI rework, so I suspect its juno specific. 15:14:15 Its quite odd because the sata/pci is functional enough to read grub, but grub itself is failing. 15:14:36 I bisected down to a single commit, but its sort of an odd one. 15:17:42 #topic 4) == Open Floor == 15:18:04 I also have firefox/chrome on the back burner 15:18:21 I have a "hack" fix to make FF run on aarch64 at the moment. 15:18:57 is anyone aware of any issues in 4.12? there is a tegra-drm issue with iommu init: 15:19:00 http://marc.info/?l=linux-arm-kernel&m=149971523129685&w=2 15:19:04 I sent pbrobinson the general idea.. but the correct fix is going to be a rework of the stack allocation 15:19:15 it should be headed to 4.12.x fixes real soon 15:19:46 kwizart: I saw that upstream, but I've not seen a fix, is that link the fix? 15:20:36 pbrobinson, yep, that's the complex fix that should go into 4.12.x, but the easier fix is another one 15:20:36 kwizart: is there also a patch that adds the iommu note to the DT? 15:20:44 pbrobinson, so you got it 15:20:46 indeed 15:20:53 got a link to that patch? 15:21:49 pbrobinson: Did you enable the CPPC? 15:22:13 jlinton: not yet, but it's on my list, just in the middle of trying to get to the bottom of another issue 15:22:16 pbrobinson, http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=149961822114457&w=2 15:22:27 jlinton: will enable it in 4.13+ 15:23:05 kwizart: thanks, will add both of those to our kernel while they make it upstream 15:23:30 lots of change coming for f27, we'll discuss it more over the coming weeks and how it impact us as the details are hashed out 15:23:46 Also, I want to bring up making aarch64 primary. 15:24:13 jlinton: I'm planning on putting a request in to make server primary 15:24:29 possibly cloud too 15:24:38 I don't think it makes sense for workstation ATM 15:24:57 I agree, although i'm running it as my desktop now. 15:25:16 (hence why I care about FF!) 15:26:23 jlinton: sure, and it might make sense soon, but probably not in the F-27 timeframe from a widely available decent device PoV 15:26:57 anything else for open floor? 15:27:37 I suppose mostly anyone working on anything for F-27? 15:29:22 Do you have any requests? 15:30:52 lets discuss it in channel 15:30:57 #endmeeting
