Finding a rogue src/sys commit with bisection?

2014-11-15 Thread Steve Kargl
Before I totally hose by /usr/src directory, does anyone
have some guidelines on doing a binary search for a rogue
commit in /usr/src/sys?.  Either cam or usb (or acpi?) has
broken the ability to remove a external USB device once it
is plugged into a usb port on my Dell Latitude D530 laptop.
I know that a good kernel can be built with r271273 and
a bad kernel comes from (nearly) top of tree at r274456.

I assume I need to do somthing along the lines

% cd /usr/src/sys
% svn merge -r 274456:272864(half way point between good and bad)
(build kernel and test)
% cd /usr/src/sys
% svn revert -R .
(assume 272864 builds working kernel)
% svn merge -r 274456:273660   (1/2 point between 272864 and 274456).

Rinse and repeat.

Unteste though, they keyword to use bisect.

In absolutely worst case yu can check out git tree and bisect that :-

I've always used 'svn up -rnn' to bisect.  No need to revert, just
repeatedly update to the next halfway point, and when you're all done,
-rHEAD to get back to normal.  I've also had very good results with
using -DNO_CLEAN on kernel bisects, it lets you zoom in quickly then
when you think you have a candidate you can do a more complete
clean-and-rebuild to be sure.  Sometimes build glitches will require a
clean rebuild at some bisect points.

Use git, it has a built in bisector to shake this sort of thing out:

git clone --config remote.origin.fetch='+refs/notes/*:refs/notes/*' 
https://github.com/freebsd/freebsd.git


cd freebsd
git log # find the hash of the commit for r271273
HASH=the git hash you found
# then:
git bisect start
git bisect bad # Current version is bad
git bisect good $HASH

Now test compile / etc...

Then as things work or don't work you keep running:
git bisect good
-or-
git bisect bad

Then compile and test.. you should converge on the problem.

You might want to add --depth 2000 (where 2000 is a guess at how many commits 
there have been since when it broke and now), to avoid downloading the entire 
history of the FreeBSD repo (not necessary if you have loads of bandwidth and 
disk space).  Just grabbing the last few thousand revisions is faster than an 
svn checkout.

clear from the list of commands I meant how to do it with svn.
Go ahead twist it however suits your needs.

Ian's suggestion on using 'svn update -r#' was exactly what
I was looking for.

PS: 'svn up -r271000' has already shown to provide a good kernel.
PPS: I currently building a -r272728 kernel.

Can everybody please just shut up and code now ?

Thankyou!


I resent your implications.  Seriously I do.

There was no intent to be childish or anything as such.

He asked: how do i bisect code.

I gave a tool that can do it in a few easy steps?

I didn't realize that git has become a trigger word for some people in 
the project.  I will proceed to warn people going forward.

The guy, that would be me, asked how to do it with svn.

There was no intention to twist anything.  Just intended to lend a hand.

Steve, if there are other technologies you never want discussed, please 
just let me know I'll not reply with help if it involves those tools.


My goal is to help, not to traumatize.

I do not believe it wasteful of people's time to give them to tools to 
do the job they asked for.


Poul, be careful, there comes a time that when everything minor seems 
childish, and you start slinging it as an insult left and right, that it 
is quite possible that you've gone too far in the opposite of the 
spectrum, that being a cantankerous old fart.  Take inventory.
