[16:00:17] <wiesand> Howdy folks
[16:00:19] <meffie> good day
[16:00:30] <cwills> hello all :)
[16:00:56] <yadayada> hi all
[16:01:55] <wiesand> I merged away a couple of changes. What's left on https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/q/status:open+project:openafs+branch:openafs-stable-1_8_x mostly need more review. Please help!
[16:02:28] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> greetings
[16:03:11] <wiesand> And of course most of all I'm waiting for 14300 to get merged. Incidentally: "Hi Ben"
[16:04:38] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Oops, apparently I was more distracted than I thought
[16:05:34] <wiesand> I have a hope that 14300 will get us back to successful nightly builds on linux-rc.
[16:05:57] <wiesand> @cwillls: agree?
[16:06:28] <cwills> Just ran a build test this morning with the a pull from the latest linux 5.9 and openafs still builds cleanly with 14300
[16:07:51] <wiesand> Ben, I know you're very busy, but can we please have 14300 either merged or declined with a reason why?
[16:08:17] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Yes
[16:08:36] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> (I am sitting here looking at it and thinking "this all looks really
familiar; why does gerrit not show any comments from me?"
[16:08:38] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> )
[16:09:41] <wiesand> Sounds familiar. In the majority of cases it's just me…
[16:11:05] <wiesand> But yes, I do have the feeling that gerrit occasionally swallows/drops comments…
[16:12:16] <cwills> I've found that if I've made a comment but clicked away it stays in a draft status
[16:12:17] <meffie> sometimes i find very old "draft" messages.
[16:12:42] <cwills> My -> Drafts
[16:12:44] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> I tried to check for any draft comments on previous patchsets but
didn't find any
[16:12:58] <meffie> yes, look in my->drafts for them.
[16:13:01] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> I may have just commented in jabber during a previous meeting, but not
said anything in gerrit, I guess.
[16:13:28] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Anyway, there's one sentence in the commit message that reads a little
funny, but not funny enough to make me want to change it vs. just
merging now.
[16:14:03] <cwills> as a side.. I created 14305 to document the minimum version requirements
[16:14:32] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> (holler if you want to change the commit message or I will merge now)
[16:15:42] <cwills> I can change it..
[16:16:08] <cwills> give me just a sec :)
[16:16:19] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Now we get to guess whether gerrit will realize that the tree is the
same as the one buildbot previously like, and keep the verified +1...
[16:16:29] <wiesand> Stray "J"  in 14305?
[16:18:32] <cwills> Remove references to HAVE_UNLOCKED_IOCTL and HAVE_COMPAT_IOCTL using
the assumption that they were always defined.
[16:19:44] <cwills> The "J" is the next outline letter after the "I" on line 268
[16:19:47] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> "were" vs "are" is a bit of a tossup.  Anyway, that's much better,
thanks
[16:20:00] <cwills> okay will push.
[16:20:02] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> "K", then
[16:20:09] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> (sorry)

M13256  afs: Skip bulkstat if stat cache looks full
[16:22:15] <yadayada> yesterday I did create gerrit for NatPing issue where we see burst of rx version packets 14312. If that gets reviewed It would be good to have in 1.8.7
[16:22:15] <wiesand> I admit I'll have to check Mike's last mails to complete that.
[16:22:51] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Yadav: Andrew just commented (during the meeting, I think) with a
proposed alternative approach that seems attractive
[16:23:12] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> But I think we can get that merged pretty quickly on master
[16:23:47] <wiesand> Put 14312 on the wish list.
[16:23:53] <cwills> 14300 pushed..
[16:23:58] <yadayada> sure ben , looks what Andrew suggest is also fine. Will push change
[16:24:07] <meffie> 14208    vos: avoid CreateVolume when restoring over an existing volume
[16:24:15] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Thanks!
[16:24:30] <meffie> was merged on master, it would be nice to have on 1.8.7
[16:25:10] <meffie> it avoids "false alarm" log messages in the servers logs that make people worry
[16:27:07] <wiesand> put 1208 on the lis
[16:27:28] <meffie> thank you
[16:28:27] <meffie> i put your list in the meeting notes too, thanks wiesand.
[16:30:15] <wiesand> Ok that's what I have on 1.8.x for today. We need 14300, then we can work on the list. Ideally, we'll release 1.8.7pre next Friday.
[16:30:44] <wiesand> On to 1.9/master?
[16:31:00] <cwills> I'll create a 1.8.x flavor of 14300 as soon as it hits master
[16:31:25] <wiesand> 14300 should be a trivial pullup?
[16:31:32] <cwills> I believe so
[16:33:00] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> 14300 is merged on master
[16:33:07] <cwills> it was just removing references to 2 macros that have been defined as "1" for a longish time.
[16:33:30] <wiesand> [the sun is finally settling, and with a little luck it was the last hot day for the year]
[16:33:31] <cwills> and the 2 macros were dropped in 5.9
[16:33:56] <wiesand> Cheyenne: care to pull up 14300?
[16:34:07] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Amusingly enough, today is supposed to be the first no-hot day for a
while (cloudy+rainy), though not the last hot day of the year, I think
[16:35:00] <cwills> we got hit with a sprinkle of rain yesterday, but not enough to really help with the forest fires in the area (closest is about 50 miles away)
[16:35:57] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Not too much exciting on the master front, I think -- I got a chunk of
time yesterday to start catching up, but didn't make it super far.
I did get to finish my pass on 14282, which is perhaps exciting
[16:36:03] <wiesand> It will either rain tomorrow, or I'll spend several hours watering the garden. I need an irrigation system…
[16:37:47] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Huh, my 'git fetch' from gerrit is going painfully slow right now
[16:38:32] <wiesand> (and it doesn't really matter any more whether our forests are on fire - you can literally watch them die due to 3 years of draufgt)
[16:38:44] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> scary
[16:39:06] <wiesand> indeed
[16:39:23] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> (fetch finished)
[16:39:33] <cwills> draught and pine bark beetle have set the stage for nasty wild fires
[16:40:24] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Other topics for master/1.9?
[16:40:44] <wiesand> Ah, that's the translation of "Borkenkäfer" :-)
[16:40:56] <cwills> I'll try to clean up the bozo libcmd commit
[16:41:16] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Thanks.  I am really happy to see that; it's good work.
[16:41:57] <yadayada> Just wanted to check on BigSur on Mac. Mike an news on patches your were referring for beta testing ?
[16:42:25] <meffie> is there anything else i need to do for 14154?
[16:42:57] <meffie> marcio will be submitting gerrits for bigsur soon, has been delayed by other projects that interrupted in august.
[16:43:03] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> > 14154
Probably not; I seem to have just missed the update coming in
[16:43:22] <wiesand> I attended the last Auristor cell admins meeting. Jeffrey stated that Big Sur is going to give "us" a really hard time.
[16:43:36] <meffie> yes it is.
[16:44:17] <meffie> apple is not making it easier that's for sure.
[16:44:49] <wiesand> Well, "not easier" sounds like quite an understatement…
[16:45:07] <meffie> yes, it is.
[16:45:42] <meffie> marcio has been testing on the beta, and should have patches for yadav to test soon.
[16:45:54] <wiesand> Wow
[16:45:56] <yadayada> sure Thanks Mike
[16:47:48] <meffie> thanks yadayada
[16:47:57] <wiesand> Looks like we're finished for today. Adjourn?
[16:48:28] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> +1
[16:48:35] <meffie> +1
[16:48:46] <yadayada> +1
[16:49:13] <cwills> +1
[16:49:15] <wiesand> Let's adjourn then. Have a nice weekend. And please consider reviewing https://gerrit.openafs.org/#/q/status:open+project:openafs+branch:openafs-stable-1_8_x
[16:49:28] <kaduk@jabber.openafs.org/barnowl> Thanks everyone, and have a good weekend
