[arch-general] [signoff] kernel26 2.6.31.1-1
Kernel is in testing for both architectures, please sign off (at least one for x86_64, two for i686). I think tpowa had the kernel all ready to move to core, except he was waiting for the .1 release, which is there now. The only thing bugging me is http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/16149, opinions?

Just be aware of this problem http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=627145 This Arch user lost /dev/tty0,1,2,3 device nodes on boot with 2.6.31 from the Arch testing repositry. A friend of mine also had the same issue with a self compiled 2.6.31. On my laptop the same config works just fine - the only difference is he uses highmem=4G, while I don't - I only have 1G ram.. Even our hardware is allmost the same (thinkpad X60s his is an USA model mine is a EU model). The problem is mentioned here too http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/24/444 but there hasn't been any response. -- damjan

I was unaware of this, as there is no bug report assigned to me about it. Does this also happen with 2.6.31.1?

yes
there's a bit of discussion here... but, afaik, the patch linked after several back-and-forths didn't actually solve the problem for sure. http://lkml.org/lkml/2009/9/24/167 -- damjan

The commit mentioned here happened just a few days ago, way after the 2.6.31 release, so how can it even be related to the problem? Without a full dmesg from a failed boot attempt, we cannot say anything.
I think tpowa had the kernel all ready to move to core, except he was waiting for the .1 release, which is there now.

I've found the source of the problem. My friend had a leftover /etc/udev/rules.d/udev.rules file that didn't belong to any package and this file had a rule to rename the ttyx nodes to vc/x. I still don't understand what the difference is there in 2.6.31 to trigger that rule? -- damjan

I can't sign off, but I have been running the 31.1-1 kernel for 3 days w/o any problems on both i586 and x86_64 :-) 12:19 alchemy:~> sar Last login: Mon Sep 28 06:53:12 2009 from alchemy.3111skyline.com 12:20 archangel:~> uptime 12:20:06 up 3 days, 11:07, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.00 12:20 archangel:~> pmq | grep kernel kernel-headers 2.6.30.5-1 kernel26 2.6.31.1-1 kernel26-firmware 2.6.31-1 kernel26-lts 2.6.27.35-1 12:20 archangel:~> 12:20 archangel:~> uname -r 2.6.31-ARCH 12:21 archangel:~> uname -a Linux archangel 2.6.31-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 26 01:05:11 CEST 2009 x86_64 AMD Phenom(tm) 9850 Quad-Core Processor AuthenticAMD GNU/Linux 12:19 alchemy:~> sff Last login: Mon Sep 28 06:52:40 2009 from alchemy.3111skyline.com 12:20 supersff:~> uptime 12:22:17 up 2 days, 23:35, 3 users, load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 12:22 supersff:~> pmq | grep kernel kernel-headers 2.6.30.5-1 kernel26 2.6.31.1-1 kernel26-firmware 2.6.31-1 kernel26-lts 2.6.27.35-1 12:22 supersff:~> uname -r 2.6.31-ARCH 12:22 supersff:~> uname -a Linux supersff 2.6.31-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sat Sep 26 02:39:09 CEST 2009 i686 Intel(R) Pentium(R) 4 CPU 3.20GHz GenuineIntel GNU/Linux -- David C.
