Apr 08 08:33:42 <ant_work> bluelightning: hi
Apr 08 08:34:16 <ant_work> are you off-duty now that the release is approaching?
Apr 08 08:34:59 <ant_work> strangely I had no feedback from Bruce/Richard wrt kernel
Apr 08 08:35:47 <ant_work> th ething is, the environment is getting hostile to non-Yocto kernels :/
Apr 08 08:37:48 <bluelightning> hi ant_work
Apr 08 08:38:18 <bluelightning> I guess I can only encourage you to file bugs describing the problems
Apr 08 08:38:47 <bluelightning> I do know bugfixes have gone in for non-linux-yocto support, so if there are problems it's definitely not intentional
Apr 08 08:39:10 <ant_work> now it is too late, isn't?
Apr 08 08:41:21 <ant_work> I don't want to be the party-pooper with an imminent release :)
Apr 08 08:47:17 <bluelightning> don't worry about that; we'd rather know about the issues than be surprised by them later...
Apr 08 09:12:13 <ant_work> I've delved in bugzilla quicksearch=kernel and didn't found the issues I'm facing
Apr 08 09:12:35 <ant_work> well, one bug is documented (menuconfig vs. ncurses)
Apr 08 09:36:24 <bluelightning> can you come up with a succinct description of the required change that we can add to the migration guide?
Apr 08 09:36:28 <bluelightning> (for S)
Apr 08 09:47:37 <ant_work> sure but I don't have yet an universal solution
Apr 08 09:56:47 <ant_work> in fact I had issues with do_patch and not do_configure
Apr 08 09:57:44 <ant_work> and I couldn't yet overcome the last problem (initramfs based on text file)
Apr 08 09:58:26 <ant_work> surely not so widely used in OE/Yocto
Apr 08 09:58:42 <ant_work> but perfectly legit from the kernel-dev POV
Apr 08 10:20:38 <bluelightning> what we could really do with for these kinds of things would be some oe-selftest test cases
Apr 08 11:18:07 <ant_work> you mean test of a generic kernel recipe?
Apr 08 12:24:18 <bluelightning> yes, but in general anything that's likely to break (or has broken in the past)
Apr 08 12:28:50 <ant_work> afaik the S<>B thing was only deployed for gcc and kernel
Apr 08 12:29:16 <ant_work> and I bet gcc has much more coverage ;)
Apr 08 12:29:41 <bluelightning> well, that's not strictly true, we did do a bunch of S!=B work for autotools/cmake recipes in the previous release
Apr 08 12:30:58 <ant_work> wait, work-shared
Apr 08 12:31:22 <ant_work> iirc is specific to a few recipes
Apr 08 12:31:57 <ant_work> (I admit having sooo many pinned e-mails to read since december...)
Apr 08 12:35:26 <bluelightning> yes work-shared is gcc and now the kernel only
