15:00:31 <pwhalen> Good morning folks, who's here today?
15:00:35 * jlinton waves
15:00:40 <pwhalen> howdy jlinton
15:02:35 * pbrobinson is here now
15:03:38 <pwhalen> ok, lets get started
15:03:48 <pwhalen> #topic 1) ==== Userspace Status  ====
15:03:59 <pwhalen> any new user space issues?
15:04:31 <pwhalen> I think we're looking pretty good, on all releases. Anyone else?
15:05:23 <pwhalen> #info No problems reported.
15:07:11 <pwhalen> #topic 2) ==== Kernel Status ====
15:07:44 <pbrobinson> I think we're mostly good here
15:07:57 <pbrobinson> like everything it can always be better
15:07:59 <pwhalen> #info Latest kernel-5.6.2-300.fc32
15:07:59 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1488519
15:08:25 <pwhalen> Right, looks pretty good in my testing as well.
15:08:27 <pbrobinson> I have pushed a few fixes for RPi to the f32 branch which will be in the next kernel build
15:08:44 <pbrobinson> I will be doing more testing on other HW
15:08:45 <jlinton> pi4?
15:09:09 <jlinton> Does that include the genet driver?
15:09:12 <pbrobinson> so a mmc fix for the rev 1.2 rpi4 HW and a general HDMI fix which affects all
15:09:33 <pbrobinson> jlinton: no, we have the genet driver though, what's wrong with it
15:09:48 <pbrobinson> and we have the upstream support for the rev in the rpi4 soc
15:09:51 <jlinton> Well the acpi bindings landed in 5.7
15:10:14 <pbrobinson> jlinton: if you have the explicit u/s commit I can pull it back
15:11:12 <jlinton> I can get them, while its a small change, its not tiny.
15:11:38 <jlinton> I will send them to you on fedora-arm and you can decide.
15:12:48 <pbrobinson> jlinton: I can see them, there's around half a dozen from you dated Feb 24th? Is it all self contained in drivers/net/ethernet/broadcom/genet/ or does it go to phy too>
15:14:31 <jlinton> No, its all in genet, except for the first, which is in the mdiobus/phy.h
15:15:00 <jlinton> Should be 6 patches
15:16:20 <pbrobinson> jlinton: I'll work with you after this to make sure I have them all and that it's a clean apply
15:17:27 <pwhalen> ok, any other kernel business?
15:18:13 <pwhalen> #topic 3) ==== Bootloader Status ====
15:18:34 <pbrobinson> we have U-Boot 2020.04 RC5
15:18:43 <pbrobinson> the release was due this week but it's slipped a week
15:18:44 <pwhalen> #info uboot-tools-2020.04-0.7.rc5.fc32
15:18:44 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1490824
15:19:06 <pwhalen> #info Please test and report any issues to the list or #fedora-arm.
15:19:22 <pbrobinson> so please test as we'll either ship with rc5 or get a FE early next week to get GA in, I don't expected the later to be much different to this one
15:20:04 <pwhalen> #info grub2-2.04-12.fc32
15:20:12 <pwhalen> #link https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=1488126
15:22:26 <pwhalen> looks like that grub also hasnt been in a compose that I've tested, yet
15:23:10 <pwhalen> #topic 4) ==== Fedora 32 Final ====
15:24:04 <pwhalen> we had a bit of a change in the schedule, the final freeze was moved to Thursday, April 9th (I believe, or is it Friday?)
15:24:52 <pbrobinson> Thurs
15:25:13 <pwhalen> #info Fedora 32 Final Freeze - 2020-04-09
15:25:25 <pwhalen> no change in the target release date
15:25:29 <pwhalen> #info F32 Final release(target) - 2020-04-21
15:25:38 <pwhalen> #info Latest nominated nightly
15:25:39 <pwhalen> #link https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Test_Results:Current_Installation_Test
15:25:47 <pwhalen> #info Fedora 32 Final Blockers
15:25:48 <pwhalen> #link https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/milestone/32/final/buglist
15:26:11 <pwhalen> nothing specific to arm/aarch64
15:27:13 <pwhalen> Anything else for F32?
15:27:24 <pwhalen> Any issues not reported?
15:29:49 <pwhalen> #topic 5)  == Open Floor ==
15:29:57 <pwhalen> Anything else for today?
15:30:10 <jlinton> Draging up pac, discussion from last, week. Are we going to want a systemwide change request?
15:30:25 <jlinton> (so if nothing else it shows up in the changelog?)
15:35:37 <jlinton> Maybe that is a discussion for another place.
15:38:21 <pwhalen> jlinton, I think it will require a change request for f33, but not clear on the scope. Do things need to be rebuilt?
15:38:43 <jlinton> Pretty much everything should be, as it would be a global compiler flag switch
15:39:17 <jlinton> I've spent a bit of time looking at rpm vs mock to see where the most appropriate place for the flags tweak is.
15:39:49 <jlinton> Since its platform specific.
15:40:56 <pwhalen> right, for sure will need a change then. I've not submitted one that requires a rebuild, but recall some bits about it in the request documentation
15:41:40 <pwhalen> lets move it to #fedora-arm, pbrobinson might have some more details when he returns
15:41:52 <pbrobinson> ba
15:42:23 <pbrobinson> jlinton: yes, we'll want a system wide change
15:42:44 <pbrobinson> jlinton: I can work with you on that to ensure we get it right
15:43:17 <pbrobinson> jlinton: are we going to do BTI as well or just PAC?
15:43:44 <jlinton> Thats the question. Break everything once, or twice?
15:44:40 <jlinton> I've only been testing it with -mbranch-protection=standard
15:45:31 <pbrobinson> that's for PAC? What about -msign-return-address as I think that uses the PAC HW feature too doesn't it?
15:45:45 <pbrobinson> basically I got that from here I think https://lwn.net/Articles/718888/
15:46:18 <jlinton> The branch-protection flag is newer and turns on msign-return-address
15:47:24 <jlinton> Well, depending on setting. "standard" enables everything including BTI iirc
15:48:38 <pbrobinson> jlinton: OK, we can discuss offline
15:50:26 <pwhalen> sounds good.
