Oct 30 18:14:31 yep Oct 30 18:14:46 it works on any variable Oct 30 18:15:38 I wonder what I am missing then.... I know which variable changes and the task, the task is a shell function i.e. do_prepare_rs_upload Oct 30 18:16:02 examine the sigdata/siginfo with dumpsig Oct 30 18:16:05 I do do_prepare_rs_upload[vardepsexclude] = "TIME" but does not seem to have any effect.. Oct 30 18:16:10 well I did a diffsig Oct 30 18:16:14 which told me that TIME is changing Oct 30 18:16:24 is it direct or indirect? Oct 30 18:16:33 it has to be direct usage, iirc Oct 30 18:16:50 oh hmm, its indirect I guess, the funcftion itself does not use TIME directly Oct 30 18:16:56 ok so I have to track down the "source" of it, understood Oct 30 18:18:09 i think so anyway. worth trying Oct 30 18:19:00 thank you! :) works now... I was adding it in all the wrong places, should have just tracked down the variable that was using it Oct 30 18:19:25 I got mislead by the error messages referencing the tasks so was lookign there/trying to add the excludes to each task Oct 30 18:20:14 * kergoth nods Oct 30 18:20:15 np Oct 30 18:20:24 https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Linux-Kills-The-VLA nice.
