Package: linux-headers-2.6.32-4-common
Version: 2.6.32-11

Debian breaks compatibility to upstream's kernel source tree
by splitting the header file directory tree into 2 parts.
This affects 3rd party software, e.g. the makefiles included
in Nvidia's driver package.

Do you think it would be possible to improve compatibility
between Debian's kernel headers and the rest of the world?


Many thanx

 Nothing. What exactly do you want?

No response.

The setup is identical to an out-of-tree (O=) build of the kernel.  If
stuff fails with this setup, it is broken.

  It turns out the CONFIG_PCI is only available for ARCH_IXP4XX and
  ARCH_DOVE. Neither is enabled in armmp at the minute, although I think
  dove is v7 and could be in principal.
 
 In 3.11 ARCH_MVEBU selects MIGHT_HAVE_PCI, so PCI could be enabled in
 trunk without any additional platforms.

I'll look into this, seems very doable.

Would be best to merge sid into trunk first I think, which seems easiest
if I wait until after 3.10.10-1 is uploaded. Time to swap in how to do
merges in svn again!

Uploading linux (3.10.11-1)

2013-09-08 Thread Ben Hutchings
I intend to upload linux to unstable tomorrow.  This will include many
important fixes from stable updates 3.10.8-3.10.11 and fixes for some
hardware support regressions on armel.  It also adds udebs for
armhf/armmp, as a step toward ARM multiplatform installer support.

Unfortunately, it includes an ABI bump.

 Yes, it might be a little bit slower since the jumps now have one

How much space would be needed?  Some Arm configs disable SELinux for

Right, debian/config/armel/config-reduced may be a useful list of things

It's also worth checking modules.builtin for things that could possibly
be modularised.  (Not everything listed there will actually work

For example, CONFIG_IPV6=m is an easy way to reduce the kernel image
size.  (We don't do this in general because IPv6 is enabled by default
and so will almost always be loaded, and modular code is slightly less
efficient.)

 needs, we like to only have one kernel variant.

Ok.

 Are there any UP machines since PA-8800?

After the request to reduce the kernels to e.g. SMP-only, my thought was
to provide only 32bit-UP and 64bit SMP kernels.
To be sure I asked on the parisc mailing list. The whole thread can be read 
here:
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.parisc/5283

Summary:
- yes, there exists quite some 32bit-only parisc SMP machines.
- the J5600 is SMP capable in both 32bit and 64bit mode, but currently it
  only boots Linux with a 32bit SMP kernel and crashes with a 64bit SMP kernel.
  We are working on resolving this...
- 64bit SMP kernel boots fine on a 64bit UP machine. So, theretically we
  can drop the 64bit UP kernel. Only problem: performance loss due to 
  unnecessary spinlock cost. 

So, right now, the best option would be to only drop the 64bit UP kernel.

 PPPS: CONFIG_MLONGCALLS=y is necessary since the built kernel 
 otherwise gets too big so that jumps can't be reached.
 Are there drawbacks?
 Yes, it might be a little bit slower since the jumps now have one 
 CPU instruction more. But there is no other way to solve it unless 
 we drop some unneccessary kernel options for parisc.
 
 How much space would be needed?  Some Arm configs disable SELinux
 for example to save space.

Not much. I think it makes sense to look through the complete configs
again. Maybe there are things which we can disable for parisc...

The driver won't be built-in, as you're setting CONFIG_DRM_RADEON=m.

And it doesn't need to be built-in.  It just needs to be in one of the
module packages that's included in the installer initramfs.  I think
you'll need to create a new udeb for DRM drivers and then add this to
the package lists for hppa images in the d-i repository.
