**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Jan 04 02:59:57 2021 Jan 04 08:32:11 good morning Jan 04 11:51:46 RP: hi, any comment on https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/message/146127 this one ? Jan 04 11:58:53 marex: they're in master-next, they test ok, just waiting for a moment to do some final review Jan 04 11:59:21 RP: ah, nice, thank you Jan 04 12:03:54 marex: btw, any thoughts on this: http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/patch/?id=345f873fa0196d5535039cd1145fc235ef599e8 :/ Jan 04 12:04:51 RP: I saw that patch two days ago Jan 04 12:05:23 yikes Jan 04 12:09:15 RP: I take it the same problem does not happen with Linux, right ? In which case, there might already be a bugfix in Linux, since that's where the script came from Jan 04 12:09:38 scripts/setlocalversion: Improve -dirty check with git-status --no-optional-locks Jan 04 12:09:41 yeah Jan 04 12:14:28 marex: I'm not 100% sure, I think the issue was with the older git version fallback code Jan 04 12:21:27 RP: if you have a test case, then you can try picking 548b8b5168c9 from Linux , it applies to U-Boot just fine, that's the only difference in the setlocalversion script between U-Boot 2021.01-rc4 and linux-next Jan 04 12:21:46 RP: if that doesn't solve it, then Linux should be affected too I think Jan 04 12:22:00 but I agree it is unlikely 548b8b5168c9 would have an impact Jan 04 12:28:05 marex: I doubt that patch will make a difference. This could also explain some mystery kernel version issues over the years **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Jan 05 03:01:24 2021
