May 05 07:54:55 <vvu> hello there!
May 05 07:55:05 <av500> hiho
May 05 07:55:33 <vvu> how is it going ?
May 05 07:55:41 <av500> well
May 05 07:56:53 * vvu goes in low power mode...
May 05 08:28:20 <vvu> who said something these days here about being able to sign os x kexts ?
May 05 08:36:43 <av500> no idea
May 05 10:25:27 <arianepaola> vvu I hope that my account will be enabled thus week. Then I can try to
May 05 10:25:36 <arianepaola> sign the kexts
May 05 10:28:37 <vvu> arianepaola: perfect, let me know how it goes
May 05 10:30:44 <arianepaola> vvu right will do
May 05 15:41:43 * nerdboy declares a second robert randolph day
May 05 16:51:26 * Abhishek_ wears a Chronos watch today
May 05 17:04:02 <Abhishek_> shubhangi: ping
May 05 17:04:16 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: pong
May 05 17:05:07 <Abhishek_> shubhangi: Any more reading so far?
May 05 17:05:21 <Abhishek_> (or coding)
May 05 17:05:22 <shubhangi> yes, i have a few doubts
May 05 17:06:28 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: i flashed the mmc with 3.14 kernel.
May 05 17:06:53 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: cant seem to find this module
May 05 17:06:54 <shubhangi> https://github.com/beagleboard/linux/blob/cfc925df626ae8df88dfc2ecae01ca1fb22f2a73/drivers/remoteproc/pruss_remoteproc.c
May 05 17:07:39 <Abhishek_> shubhangi: modinfo ?
May 05 17:07:47 <shubhangi> tried it
May 05 17:08:08 <shubhangi> okay
May 05 17:08:58 <shubhangi> it is there.
May 05 17:12:57 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: are sysfs ( ioctl, procfs, etc ) the only viable kernel-user interface ?
May 05 17:13:44 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: implementing new syscalls is an option ?
May 05 17:14:54 <Abhishek_> Could be done, however I don't think it will elicit a favorable response on the LKML.
May 05 17:15:20 <shubhangi> hmm.. thought so
May 05 17:15:46 <Abhishek_> panto-cloud, ds2 and anyone else who has an opinion on this above ^
May 05 17:16:26 <shubhangi> i was going through this http://people.ee.ethz.ch/~arkeller/linux/kernel_user_space_howto.html
May 05 17:18:19 <ds2> eh?
May 05 17:18:49 <ds2> there are always character devices
May 05 17:18:51 <ds2> syscalls
May 05 17:19:10 <ds2> but what's with the '('')'? those are different from sysfs
May 05 17:19:51 <shubhangi> i read diff fs were developed for specific uses
May 05 17:19:57 <shubhangi> althoigh the line is thin
May 05 17:20:00 <shubhangi> although*
May 05 17:20:13 <ds2> well yes
May 05 17:20:20 <ds2> sysfs is the main one for simple things
May 05 17:20:28 <ds2> procfs should related to processes
May 05 17:20:44 <ds2> ioctl are something generally used with a character device
May 05 17:20:56 <ds2> sysfs is a specific thing
May 05 17:21:19 <ds2> you could develop a specific fs but that generally undesireable unless you have a specific use
May 05 17:21:34 <ds2> examples - tracings, usb, debug
May 05 17:23:54 <shubhangi> okay
May 05 17:59:33 * nerdboy pokes neemo again
May 05 18:17:03 <Abhishek_> Hmm
May 05 19:24:26 <Abhishek_> shubhangi: Mail your address to _av500_ so that your boards are dispatched
May 05 19:25:42 <shubhangi> Abhishek_: ok
May 05 19:56:21 <_av500_> shubhangi: thanks
May 05 19:56:33 <shubhangi> :)
May 05 21:07:37 <ds2> av500: if you meant the project assigments mail yesterday and not the announcement mail, I have not receive that yet
May 05 21:09:22 <_av500_> oh
May 05 21:09:29 <_av500_> need to send that
