(not this go-round) 14:29:54 * licquia makes it so 14:30:29 <licquia> #agreed attach 3793 to next stable update 14:31:12 <licquia> ok, that's it for "interesting" bugs 14:31:36 <licquia> we talked about looking at 5.0 bug priorities in the meeting yesterday; up for that? 14:32:13 <mwichmann> I can lurk 14:33:19 <licquia> i'm looking at https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/en/Uplift_Target 14:33:35 <licquia> for the bug list 14:33:41 <licquia> #info looking at 5.0 priorities 14:33:50 <licquia> !lsbbug 3470 14:33:53 <lsbbot> licquia: 04Bug http://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3470 enhancement, P2, 5.0, mats, ASSIGNED , RFE: uplift libc version in LSB 14:34:20 <licquia> mostly done, i think, though there's an outstanding question re: dialing back to 2.13 14:35:02 * licquia adds a note to that effect 14:35:18 <mwichmann> I don't think my notes are on that machine 14:35:28 <mwichmann> uh-oh, another delay msg 14:35:51 <mwichmann> -> 12:43, this is getting ridiculous 14:36:14 <licquia> wow 14:37:31 * licquia marks the glibc bug as higher priority, given how old 4.1's glibc is 14:37:45 <mwichmann> right now, I can't say what would be impacted by dialing back a bit 14:38:13 <licquia> what, you can't recite the glibc changelog from memory in an airport with no sleep? :-) 14:39:14 <licquia> #agreed bump priority up on 3470 (glibc) 14:40:01 <mwichmann> no, i can't. this probably why I'm unemployed now. 14:40:10 <licquia> heh 14:40:59 <mwichmann> info in the bug is uncollated, but there are at least a few things... scandirat, some bug-fixed versions of things, etc. 14:41:11 <licquia> !lsbbug 3748 14:41:13 <lsbbot> licquia: 04Bug http://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=3748 enhancement, P2, 5.0, mats, ASSIGNED , RFE: add missing pthread functions 14:41:38 <licquia> related to glibc, not sure it's the same priority 14:42:19 <licquia> hmm; noting that the sql for those appears to have been applied 14:42:29 <mwichmann> implemented, not sure of rest of the state 14:42:33 <licquia> checking navigator... 14:42:57 <mwichmann> I think these are posix funcs 14:43:45 <licquia> getclock is posix 2008, acc. to navigator 14:43:55 <licquia> and it reports as added in 5.0 14:43:58 <licquia> close? 14:44:46 <mwichmann> probably, no idea why I left open... maybe some feeble notion we might want tests, and/or if we just close we forget that? 14:45:18 * mwichmann has relocated next to power outlet 14:45:59 <licquia> probably should address tests via code coverage analysis at this stage, imho 14:46:08 <licquia> (we know we don't test lots of things) 14:46:29 <denis_silakov> agree, we never keep such bugs open due to tests 14:46:41 <denis_silakov> we would have to keep too many bugs opened then 14:46:55 <licquia> heh 14:47:05 <mwichmann> do we have a tested field in the db? or is that generated some other way 14:47:14 <mwichmann> I know we have a documented/not flag 14:47:21 <denis_silakov> there is a TestInt table with mapping 14:47:25 <licquia> there's info in navigator about test status 14:47:47 <denis_silakov> yeah, navigator takes data from TestInt 14:47:57 <denis_silakov> though that table was last updated with 4.0 release... 14:48:29 <licquia> might be worth doing another coverage analysis at some point 14:48:55 <licquia> mwichmann: do you object to closing this one? 14:49:15 <mwichmann> no 14:49:18 <licquia> ok 14:49:25 <licquia> #agreed close 3748 as resolved 14:50:16 <licquia> !lsbbug 1391 14:50:18 <lsbbot> licquia: 04Bug http://lsbbugs.linuxfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1391 enhancement, P2, 5.0, mats, ASSIGNED , add async I/O interfaces to LSB 14:51:20 <licquia> this looks like it's in the same state; there's a "pushed" comment 14:51:28 <mwichmann> yes 14:51:39 <licquia> same deal? close? 14:51:55 <mwichmann> maybe a little research, I've forgotten.... 14:52:07 * licquia checks navigator 14:52:08 <mwichmann> aio has *64 interfaces, which thus aren't covered by posix 14:52:46 <mwichmann> these might be in the original lfs doc, but maybe not, so there could be doc completeness issue 14:53:48 <mwichmann> go ahead and close if there isn't 14:54:17 <licquia> interesting; some of aio_* is marked as "included since 1.0" 14:54:32 <licquia> indeed, it's either "never been in lsb" or "included since 1.0" 14:54:41 <mwichmann> it went in once, then was pulled out again 14:54:48 <licquia> ah 14:54:59 <denis_silakov> yes, in such cases navigator selects the lowest version 14:55:11 <licquia> and it looks like the aio_foo64 versions are in too 14:55:13 <mwichmann> i thought the issues on that were addressed 14:55:23 * licquia closes 14:55:25 <mwichmann> (navigator display of multiples) 14:55:34 <mwichmann> but I think that logic may not go back to pre-3.0 14:55:40 <mwichmann> or soemthing 14:55:57 * mwichmann is getting headache trying to remember stuff he's been ignoring recently 14:55:58 <licquia> the detail page looks right 14:56:34 <licquia> #agreed close 1391 as resolved 14:58:07 <licquia> #action update Uplift Target wiki page with current status on glibc bugs 14:58:39 <licquia> alright; close to top of the hour; anything else before we close the meeting? 14:59:33 <mwichmann> whee, try to call ride service to let them know delay, they have a toll-free number that works only in Bay Area :) 14:59:45 <mwichmann> yes, can close meeting 14:59:54 <licquia> fun 14:59:55 <mwichmann> not that *I* am going anywhere for several hours.... 14:59:59 <licquia> #endmeeting
