[Bug 1086475] Re: Sync blcr 0.8.4-3 (universe) from Debian Unstable (universe)

2012-12-11 Thread Alan Woodland
0.8.4-4 should be making its way out to the Debian archives shortly.
Probably won't make it into wheezy but it seems to be a non-issue in
wheezy currently and pre-emptively fixes an FTBFS in wheezy+1.

It built fine on amd64 in a current sid pbuilder prior to upload to
Debian. I'll try and find time to take a look at this on an Ubuntu/amd64
box and work out what's going on.

[Bug 700036] Re: package blcr-dkms 0.8.2-15ubuntu1 failed to install/upgrade: blcr kernel module failed to build - error: ‘struct signal_struct’ has no member named ‘count’

2011-10-12 Thread Alan Woodland
There's an updated package currently awaiting build in my PPA that adds
support for kernels up to and including 2.6.38 (i.e. Natty) -
https://launchpad.net/~awoodland/+archive/blcr/+sourcepub/1980069
/+listing-archive-extra

It passed all the tests it should on my test machine and is an official
upstream release. Maybe this would be a candidate for inclusion in
natty-updates? The dediff between the previous version looks bigger than
it really is because of a) the autoconf rerun and b) a whole pile of
patches that were previously only in Debian got merged upstream.

2011-10-12 Thread Alan Woodland
2.6.39+ support currently has two known issues:
https://hpcrdm.lbl.gov/pipermail/checkpoint/2011-October/000334.html

I think they're both things I should be able to handle although the BKL
removal has the potential to introduce some hard to debug problems. All
going well though it might be possible to get a patch blessed upstream
within a few weeks.

The Debian upload I made has a reference to this LP bug in the
changelog. I guess that'll either need stripping before pulling into
Ubuntu or a separate bug for 3.0 support needs to become the master.

No news yet and the patch in testing only goes to 2.6.35 right now. I have a
suspicion the timing will match the next debian freeze so an ubuntu specific
patch to break the dependency change probably makes most sense.

 Could somebody please change the openmpi-bin package dependency on

 to show up on every attempt to rebuild the dkms modules, which users
 tend to eventually report. There's about 0.95 reports a day on average
 (116 duplicates between 18 November and 21 April).

 libmpich2-2 also pulls it in via its depends on libcr0 - I think this
 is a mistake, it should be a recommends at most, but preferably a
 suggests, like for OpenMPI. Neither MPI library needs blcr to work.

Why not fix the reporting problem by patching the bug submission tool
to check for duplicates? It would be a useful feature more generally
in other cases too surely?

I have a patch for this, adding support for more recent kernels in
testing/development with the upstream authors at the moment, but there
are a number of non-trivial changes in code that may have usage cases
I'm not aware of or subtle bugs in corner cases so I'm awaiting an ACK
from them to proceed.

Turns out this driver is actually pretty redundant (for me at least)
since 2.6.29 anyway - gspca_stv06xx seems to support all of the hardware

That would be quite a sensible fix to stem the tide of bug reports in
Ubuntu. 0.8.2-14 should fix this for kernels upto and including 2.6.34,
however I've not yet managed to fix builds for 2.6.35, so this would be
worth having still.

2010-09-28 Thread Alan Woodland
libcr0 will behave sanely if the kernel modules are not available. The
extent of this is to return appropriate error codes from API calls
though, rather than actually being useful, hence the recommends there.

I originally took the view that most MPI users were probably sysadmins
setting up clusters etc. and therefore recommends on MPI made sense
because this is exactly the kind of thing you want to push out to
cluster nodes.

I've prepared a new upload for Debian, which adds support for kernels up
to an including 2.6.34. I plan to upload it tonight once upstream ACK
some of the changes I made. This new release also dropped references to
blcr-modules (the package originally targeted m-a, not dkms).

I am testing packages with support for kernels  2.6.35 now. 2.6.35
support is probably someway off still. Since as I understand it the
forthcoming release will be using 2.6.35 it probably makes sense to make
this change on Ubuntu.

[Bug 534175] Re: package blcr-dkms 0.8.2-9 failed to install/upgrade: blcr kernel module failed to build against linux-rt kernel

2010-03-09 Thread Alan Woodland
It was the Ubuntu freeze I was unsure about. I'm preparing -10 now with
the patch for -lp kernels. I've checked up and there shouldn't be a
problem for getting the fix pulled across from Debian. Once that hits
testing and lucid I'll do another revision which adds an extra package
with the testsuite.

Of course when I said -lp I really meant -rt...

New version has just been uploaded to Debian/Unstable. Will request
getting it pulled into Lucid later today.

2010-03-08 Thread Alan Woodland
BLCR can in theory build against almost any standard 2.6.X kernel. I
have no idea what -rt changes internally though. Do you have a
config.log from the failed configure attempt that you could attach to
this report?

As for nvidia modules not getting built because of this I'd say that was
a bug with dkms itself. There's no inherent reason why failure of one
module should prevent another one from getting built. The boot time
script that causes these to get built is pretty simple from what I
remember.

From a quick look just now it looks like it should be possible to add

(Oddly this package is at version 2.6.31-9.152)

linux-rt appears to be a meta-package which depends upon the latest

2010-03-08 Thread Alan Woodland
I will definitely wait for an ack on the functionality of the resulting
patch. Seems odd that it would end up missing those macros.

If it works manually it should work with DKMS, all the bits do (in a
slightly odd way) is call configure for the appropriate kernel and make,
dressed up like a non-autoconf'd module.

I can only upload to Debian too, so I don't know right now what the
chances of this getting into the upcoming release now it's been frozen
would be. I will make inquiries once there's a positive test report from
a system (or two) running -rt.

2010/1/18 Dave Martin dave.mar...@arm.com:
 I get a successful build, but I'm not sure how to run the testsuite.
 Any ideas?

Testsuite needs to be built separately using:
./configure --with-installed-libcr --with-installed-modules  make
check IIRC. There's a bug in the current release which prevents
--with-installed-util from working correctly, which should also be
used here, but I don't think it matters too much that it's not.

(You'll also need to have the kernel module part (blcr-dkms) installed
and built for the running kernel in order for the tests to actually
work)

2010-01-18 Thread Alan Woodland
2010/1/18 Dave Martin dave.mar...@arm.com:
 I managed to build the kernel modules against the linux-fsl-imx51
 headers and install them; make check then ran, using the configure args
 you suggest (I added --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man for
 consistency with the package build proper, but I doubt this affects the
 test results).  See the attached log for the results.

 A couple of tests are skipped; the prctl test fails.  The atomics tests
 appear to pass.
That all looks good - bug2524 test is PPC specific, prctl test fails
because of known problems with configure and the test itself.

 I have not currently done anything in my patch to cause
 R_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg to be defined: I defined it in my build using a
 masquerade wrapper around GCC.  This will need to be addressed in the
 build scripts.

I have a trivial patch I'm going to apply that assumes this will
always be supported. It's the better code path to use, and it's only
untrue pre 2.6.12, which isn't a problem for Debian or Ubuntu.

I'll upload 0.8.2-8 to Debian now, with a reference in the Changelog
to the LP bug.

Further research indicates that SWP has been deprecated and subsequently
dropped from the instruction set in newer arm processors:

I'll see about putting together a patch with upstream to correct this.

[Bug 503185] swp/swpne ARMv7

2010-01-05 Thread Alan Woodland
Hi,

I noticed today that BLCR is failing to build on armel on Ubuntu. This
problem is reported in [1]. It would seem that ARMv7 no longer
includes swp/swpne instructions. It's relatively trivial to
conditionally replace this with appropriate ldrex/strex instructions
instead though. Before I produce a patch though I have a few
questions:

1) CR_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg clearly isn't defined at build time here.
The test doesn't get run because we're only building userspace parts
at this point. Is that correct? Are we always expecting to be in the
#else oflibcr/arch/arm/cr_atomic.h when building userspace bits? I
can't help but feel I've missed something in my reading of this
somehow though.
2) Is a 2nd alternative for
cri_atomic_inc/cri_atomic_dec_and_test/cri_cmp_swap the correct way to
fix this? The comments in the source seem to suggest that using
ldrex/strex would be correct and better where they exist. They also
imply that we shouldn be using __kernel_cmpxchg on newer kernels
anyway though.

Thanks,
Alan

[Bug 503185] Re: [BLCR-ARM] swp/swpne ARMv7

2010-01-05 Thread Alan Woodland
2010/1/5 Paul H. Hargrove phhargr...@lbl.gov:
 Alan,

   I believe you are mistaken in reading the comments to imply we
 shouldn['t] be using __kernel_cmpxchg on newer kernels anyway.   That
 feature became available in 2.6.12 and before that there was no way to
 perform an atomic operation from user code w/ pre-ARMv6 hardware.  Since
 2.6.12 this has been the portable way to get an atomic C-A-S.  If there is
 specific misleading text in the comment, please show me and I'll fix/clarify
 it.

Thanks, my confusion was in how a kernel test seemed to be resulting
in something getting called directly from userspace, and why it didn't
seem to be getting used in the build despite the more recent kernel.
The comments are pretty clear now I see how __kuser_cmpxchg is
working.

  You ARE correct that CR_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg is not defined at build time
 IF one does separate configuration as the debian packaging apparently does.
  That possibility was not considered when this code was first written, and
 is the root cause of your problem.  One should always be in
 CR_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg case for a kernel = 2.6.12.

  It was my intention that the swp/swpne code only be used for kernel 
 2.6.12, but probing the kernel for __kuser_cmpxchg was chosen to be a more
 reliable probe (a distro could back port the feature to an older base kernel
 version).  The fact that you reach this code is because the separate
 user/kernel builds have resulted in not probing for
 CR_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg.

That makes sense.

 If one were to refuse to build for a kernel w/o this feature, then the
  #if defined(CR_KCODE___kuser_cmpxchg)
 would/could effectively become equivalent to
  #if 1
 since a userspace built w/o a corresponding kernel module is harmless.

  So, I believe the solution to your problem is to force use of the
 __kuser_cmpxchg path and require (via packaging magic?) that one have kernel
= 2.6.12.

That seems like the simplest solution to me, a 1 line patch to force
that path on arm. I'm not quite sure how to document = 2.6.12 as a
dependency for a library package. Probably the easiest way to get a
sensible dependency would be to depend on a more modern libc6 than the
automatically generated one.

Ubuntu arm people: Shall I just do this and upload to Debian/unstable
with LP: #503185 in the changelog? It makes sense for the Debian
userspace to be using __kuser_cmpxchg on modern kernels also.

(I assume on a kernel prior to 2.6.12 this would build, but give
segfault/bus error at run time?)

  I am open to suggestions as to how to deal in general with building the
 ARMuser space w/o configuring the kernel module, while still allowing for
 the possibility of a pre-2.6.12 kernel.  I am not certain that disallowing
 pre-2.6.12 kernels would be popular in the ARM community.

For Debian/Ubuntu I think it's safe enough to ignore that problem -
Sarge was the last Debian release to see a kernel  2.6.12, the next
Ubuntu release looks set to have at least 2.6.32 as the default
kernel.

  In response to your #2: one COULD write an additional #if case to use
 ldrex/strex for ARMv6 and ARMv7.  This would gain some efficiency in
 exchange for portability to older CPUs, but I lack a platform to test
 correctness of such an implementation.
I have an ARMv6 on my desk at the moment, but it's not supported by
any of the standard Debian/Ubuntu kernel packages to my knowledge and
I've never tried anything much more adventurous on it than a Debian
chroot. I don't think it's worth the time/effort to do this given that
it's better handled by __kuser_cmpxchg anyway.
