Bug#806952: Enable CONFIG_MOUSE_ELAN_I2C

2015-12-03 Thread Florian Uekermann
Package: linux-latest
Version: 68

Dear Maintainers,

There is a fairly trivially fixed, but ignored bug report here (since July):
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=791631

It is a request to enable the config options MOUSE_ELAN_I2C, MOUSE_ELAN_I2C_I2C 
and
MOUSE_ELAN_I2C_SMBUS.

This is a driver for the touchpad in some Acer laptops (and maybe others). It 
would be nice to add this to older kernel versions as well and to backport it, 
since the touchpad has been around for some time.

Best regards,
Florian Uekermann

It's not ignored; you can see it's tagged pending.

And even if it was, that's no reason to send a new bug report.

Bug#807000: initramfs-tools: module nvme not included in block modules on kernel > 4.2

2015-12-03 Thread Philipp Ittershagen
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.120
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

I tried creating an initrd on a system with an NVMe SSD PCIe card. The card is 
supported
using the nvme kernel module and with the 4.2 kernel I was successfully able to 
boot
the system.

However, the upcoming 4.4 kernel includes a commit that moves the nvme module 
from 
drivers/block/nvme into its own directory drivers/nvme (see
https://github.com/torvalds/linux/commit/57dacad5f2288e3de91f99b29f07b4a2793446d2),
therefore preventing it from being automatically added to the list of modules 
included in the initrd.

Adding the module manually to the initramfs configuration solves the issue.

Here's a patch that adds the module again to the 'most' set:

Bug#588675: / left as /dev/root with non-initrd kernel

Indeed, I think I confused this with #656333 ("Please ignore rootfs in
df output"), which may be related to this one.

Again, I'm afraid I don't remember what I've seen prior to wheezy. The
system is running 24x7 but I'll try to boot a pre-wheezy image (or
something with BLK_DEV_IDE_PMAC enabled) the next time this machine is
rebooted and see if the actual disk or /dev/rootfs is displayed.

Bug#807004: initramfs-tools: Breaks when installing kdump-tools with bcache rootfs

2015-12-03 Thread Neil Mayhew
Package: initramfs-tools
Version: 0.120
Severity: important
Tags: patch

I have /dev/bcache0 as my rootfs. When upgrading kdump-tools, the
postinst fails because /etc/kernel/postinst.d/kdump-tools returns an
error. When I run this manually, I get:

kdump-tools: Generating /var/lib/kdump/initrd.img-4.2.0-1-amd64
mkinitramfs: for device /dev/bcache0 missing bcache /sys/block/ entry
mkinitramfs: workaround is MODULES=most
mkinitramfs: Error please report the bug

The "missing bcache /sys/block/ entry" message comes from
dep_add_modules_mount in /usr/share/initramfs-tools/hook-functions

The problem is that the "classical block device" case strips the numeric
suffix from the device name, but this is needed for the entry in
/sys/block.

The attached patch fixes the problem, although I don't know if it's the
best way to solve it.

Maybe.  I had expected there to be a 4.3.1 release by now, which could
be uploaded to unstable.  As that still hasn't appeared (and it isn't
even under review), perhaps I'll make another 4.2-based upload.

Uploading linux (4.2.6-2)

2015-12-03 Thread Ben Hutchings
I intend to upload linux version 4.2.6-2 to unstable on Friday or
Saturday.

This has a few security fixes, plus I've cherry-picked all the relevant
bug fixes from the master branch.

There should not be any ABI change.

Ben.

So many bugs, so little time.  :-/   This actually effected many other
utilities as well.  I'm a bit surprised if this is getting fixed in the
kernel, I thought the kernel maintainers had decided "this is the way the
kernel does this, userspace needs to compensate".

Thanks.  I'm pretty sure it will show the actual disk, but another
confirmation will help.
