Seems to be mostly done now. 16:05:39 <cjwatson> Fixed some embarrassingly old debconf regressions from work I did on dpkg-reconfigure earlier this year. 16:05:43 <cjwatson> Half a dozen more cross-building fixes. 16:05:45 <cjwatson> debmirror patch to limit mirroring to arbitrary field names by package. 16:05:48 <cjwatson> Started work on publishing package set information in archive index files. 16:05:51 <cjwatson> Followed up to Jean-Baptiste's autopkgtest integration mail with a few questions; should be able to start proposed-migration work after getting those answers. 16:05:54 <cjwatson> Helped out with Upstart 1.6.1 release. 16:05:56 <cjwatson> .. 16:06:15 <ev> This is going to be a long one. Maybe go fetch yourself a nice hot kwahfee ☕ 16:06:15 <ev> Week of December 6th 16:06:16 <ev> - Ubuntu Error Tracker sprint. Wrap up email forthcoming. 16:06:16 <ev> - Managed to get through most of the sprint agenda: 16:06:16 <ev> https://docs.google.com/a/canonical.com/document/d/1BWOIRdJvUueJa4cWV68UEY3nlmHgAVJY6aNGo6YSCQg/edit?pli=1# 16:06:16 <ev> - We came up with an implementation plan for stopping phased updates: 16:06:16 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/PhasedUpdates 16:06:17 <ev> - And server-side hooks. This will let you request that additional 16:06:17 <ev> information be sent for a package or problem (bucket ID) automatically, or 16:06:18 <ev> request that a user file a bug in Launchpad with a link back to the error 16:06:18 <ev> tracker, so that you have someone to converse with: 16:06:19 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/ServerSideHooks 16:06:27 <ev> - Thanks to Martin, we now have end-to-end system tests up and running on 16:06:27 <ev> canonistack \o/: 16:06:28 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/Deployment 16:06:28 <ev> - Did code review for Brian and Martin, and countless pastebin discussions 16:06:28 <ev> over IRC. 16:06:37 <ev> - We're going to be setting up Tarmac on canonistack to drive the end to 16:06:37 <ev> end system testing on each new merge proposal. This is blocked on us 16:06:37 <ev> getting canonistack credentials for the Tarmac instance, so that it can 16:06:37 <ev> drive juju to spin up the nodes for testing (RT 57881). 16:06:37 <ev> - We also did some pair programming (crowded around my laptop - damn you 16:06:37 <ev> tmux) to create a mapping between bugs and crash signatures: 16:06:37 <ev> lp:~ev/errors/bug-to-crash-signature 16:06:45 <ev> - We're moving the retracers to prodstack (RT 58019) after doing some 16:06:45 <ev> investigations around a copy on write backend using LVM or overlayfs. This 16:06:45 <ev> will fix the disk space problems we've been encountering, according to 16:06:45 <ev> James. 16:06:54 <ev> - Worked on improving error handling around open ID logins. I've also 16:06:54 <ev> restricted access to the full stack traces to just 16:06:54 <ev> ~canonical-ubuntu-engineering, per James' request (bug 1087361). In a later 16:06:54 <ev> change, which I'm working on, we'll provide sanitised stack traces and 16:06:54 <ev> instance pages for anyone in ~ubuntu-bugcontrol to view. 16:06:56 <ubottu> Error: Launchpad bug 1087361 could not be found 16:07:04 <ev> - Worked through the implementation plan for a view of all the errors that 16:07:04 <ev> your team is responsible for with Brian. 16:07:04 <ev> - Came up with a plan to handle statistical noise from more developers using 16:07:04 <ev> a particular error type or a bug fix causing more reports of a particular 16:07:04 <ev> error type. 16:07:14 <ev> - Worked with Ivanka to come up with more friendly messaging and started to 16:07:14 <ev> build a persona for communicating errors to the user (think of the Google 16:07:15 <ev> Chrome robot). 16:07:15 <ev> - Call with Rick to fill him in on the sprint's progress. 16:07:22 <ev> - Came up with a plan for receiving crashes from unpackaged software (like 16:07:22 <ev> Steam games). 16:07:22 <ev> - Came up with a plan to clean up the chain of bug duplicates as it relates 16:07:22 <ev> to errors.ubuntu.com (this will provide steady footing for the 'prompting 16:07:22 <ev> for software updates for the crashes they fix' functionality): 16:07:22 <ev> https://bugs.launchpad.net/errors/+bug/1086754 16:07:25 <ubottu> Ubuntu bug 1086754 in Apport "Some linked bug reports are private duplicates" [Medium,Triaged] 16:07:33 <ev> - We decided there's no programmatic way of untangling errors from libraries 16:07:33 <ev> and the applications that consume them, but will surface likely library 16:07:33 <ev> issues using map/reduce jobs: 16:07:33 <ev> https://bugs.launchpad.net/errors/+bug/1072854 16:07:36 <ubottu> Ubuntu bug 1072854 in Errors "Handle bugs in libraries better" [High,Confirmed] 16:07:43 <ev> - Talked through the security implications of allowing users to see their 16:07:43 <ev> crashes given just the system UUID. We could technically blacklist any IP 16:07:43 <ev> with multiple 404s against the system page (brute force SHA512 guessing), 16:07:43 <ev> but we'll likely just let users see a table of basic information about each 16:07:43 <ev> crash. Providing further access would imply also letting them delete the 16:07:43 <ev> data, which has the same trust problem of not absolutely knowing the person 16:07:44 <ev> viewing the data is the owner. 16:07:55 <ev> - Came up with a really nice solution with James (RT 55518) for providing a 16:07:55 <ev> secondary/analytics cluster and a development cluster using sstableloader 16:07:55 <ev> and single beefy machines to represent each additional cluster. This 16:07:55 <ev> creates one directional pipes of the data from the core Cassandra cluster 16:07:55 <ev> to each additional cluster. So it means we cannot use the analytics cluster 16:07:55 <ev> to do back population. We'll therefore still install Hadoop on the core 16:07:56 <ev> cluster as well, and just use it for the back population map/reduce jobs 16:07:56 <ev> (putting all other M/R jobs on the analytics cluster). 16:08:06 <ev> - We came up with several actionable items for getting more teams using 16:08:06 <ev> errors.ubuntu.com. If you have any ideas on this, do let me know! I really 16:08:06 <ev> want to ensure everyone has at least considered making it part of their 16:08:06 <ev> daily routine and know what the blockers are to people using it more. 16:08:15 <ev> - Attended a Cassandra London meetup on moving from MongoDB to Cassandra. 16:08:16 <ev> - Full report forthcoming, but here are my notes (there may also be a video 16:08:16 <ev> at some point): 16:08:16 <ev> http://paste.ubuntu.com/1427650/ 16:08:22 <ev> - Met a few guys from Meta Broadcast after their talk. They seem well suited 16:08:22 <ev> for juju, so I've sent them along to Jorge. They also want to work with us 16:08:22 <ev> on bringing multimedia to the dash and TV, so I set up their CEO with John 16:08:22 <ev> L. 16:08:28 <ev> - From talking to some other Hadoop users at the meetup, I learned that the 16:08:28 <ev> released version of Pig has a number of thorny issues that can be avoided 16:08:28 <ev> by building from trunk. 16:08:34 <ev> - No one has a better idea of how to recreate a Column Family with the 16:08:34 <ev> correct comparators other than just pointing all requests at both the old 16:08:34 <ev> and the new CF while siphoning off data from the old into the new as a 16:08:34 <ev> background task. 16:08:42 <ev> - Started fleshing out tasks to complete at the end and beginning of each 16:08:42 <ev> release: 16:08:42 <ev> https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ErrorTracker/UbuntuReleasePreparation 16:08:42 <ev> - Chased down getting http://graphite.engineering.ubuntu.com up and running, 16:08:42 <ev> which is now is! Filed RT 57837 for a graph of column family sizes, per 16:08:42 <ev> James' request. Filed RT 58016 for getting a statsd instances feeding 16:08:42 <ev> Cassandra timeouts and errors.ubuntu.com access data into graphite. 16:08:48 <ev> - Moved packages from my personal PPA to the new daisy-pluckers daisy-seeds 16:08:48 <ev> PPA, pulling in changes from raring where possible. 16:08:48 <ev> - Tested and pushed out a new pycassa to the retracers. This will hopefully 16:08:48 <ev> help us understand why we're seeing only a single retry on Cassandra 16:08:48 <ev> connection attempts when we have it explicitly set to 5. 16:09:00 <ev> - Countless other things. It's been a very busy two weeks and I'm still trying 16:09:00 <ev> to get everything codified on the wiki, in bugs, in RT tickets, and in a big 16:09:00 <ev> writeup of all the progress we've made. The sprint was one of the most 16:09:00 <ev> productive weeks of my time at Canonical and I was elated to hear that Rick 16:09:00 <ev> made a point of keeping money in the budget for small-group sprints in 2013. 16:09:00 <ev> A massive thanks to Steve, Rick, and Pete for approving this and Brian, 16:09:00 <ev> Martin, Dmitrijs, Ivanka, and James for lending their time. 16:09:04 <ev> done \o/ 16:09:38 <stgraber> - Upstart 16:09:38 <stgraber> - Some cleanup of the prctl branch, sent an e-mail to upstart-devel and ted about it, waiting for final review. 16:09:41 <stgraber> - Dug into the libnih dbus code generator and fixed the 'as' type issue, sent MP, reviewd and accepted by James, still needs uploading. 16:09:44 <stgraber> - Merged gdbus port of the dconf bridge, cleaned up the code a bit after that. 16:09:47 <stgraber> - Container 16:09:49 <stgraber> - Quite a lot of code review for patches being sent upstream. 16:09:52 <stgraber> - Did a lot of code cleanup, dropped any hardcoded path in the code, using autoconf everywhere. 16:09:55 <stgraber> - Updated the upstream documentation for the new contribution workflow. 16:09:58 <stgraber> - Improved locking in lxc-create to allow for concurent creation of containers using different templates. 16:10:01 <stgraber> - Update python bindings for the new set/get_cgroup_item API, rebased some of the code on the new API. 16:10:04 <stgraber> - Discussed the release plan upstream and sent the 0.9~alpha1 pull request to Daniel. 16:10:07 <stgraber> - Finished porting arkose to python3, released 1.6 and uploaded to the archive. 16:10:10 <stgraber> - Release 16:10:12 <stgraber> - Released alpha-1 for Edubuntu and Kubuntu. 16:10:15 <stgraber> - Fixed a few bugs in the QA Tracker related to images auto-publishing based on manifest. 16:10:18 <stgraber> - Extended the manifest in the tracker to support an active/disabled flag so entries can remain on the manifest even when not planned for release in the current milestone. 16:10:22 <stgraber> - Networking 16:10:24 <stgraber> - Wrote patch to make bridge-utils work with any init system (well, at least sysvinit and upstart) 16:10:27 <stgraber> - Uploaded a new ifenslave-2.6 fixing all the remaining bugs on Launchpad. 16:10:30 <stgraber> - Uploaded a new ifupdown fixing a bunch of bugs in ifupdown and the upstart jobs, changes forwarded to Debian. 16:10:33 <stgraber> - Went through bridge-utils and vlan bugs. 16:10:36 <stgraber> - Reviewed redhat's fiberchannel patchset for isc-dhcp, will need quite a lot of changes to apply. 16:10:39 <stgraber> - Other 16:10:41 <stgraber> - Did some more precise UEFI secureboot testing for Colin, it actually works now! 16:10:44 <stgraber> - TODO 16:10:47 <stgraber> - Upload new libnih. 16:10:49 <stgraber> - Add test for Restarted event to the dbus-events upstart branch and propose for merging. 16:10:52 <stgraber> - Go through the isc-dhcp and resolvconf bugs. 16:10:55 <stgraber> - Try to apply redhat's fiberchannel patchset to our isc-dhcp. 16:10:57 <stgraber> - Figure out how to build the shim locally and sign it with a local key, then work with slangasek to figure out what's the exact bug I'm having. 16:11:00 <stgraber> - Travel/Sprint/... 16:11:03 <stgraber> - I'll have a slightly weird work schedule on Friday as I'll be traveling to Montreal, will still be working as usual and be available on IRC. 16:11:06 <stgraber> - I'm arriving in Europe on Saturday (15th) and will be back in Canada on the 2nd of January. 16:11:09 <stgraber> - Monday through Wednesday next week, we'll have an upstart sprint on European time. 16:11:12 <stgraber> - Thursday I'll be working as usual but on European time. 16:11:14 <stgraber> - Then I'll be off from Friday (21st) until I'm back in Canada on the 2nd of January. 16:11:17 <stgraber> - So if you need anything non-upstart related from me this year, make sure to talk to me this week or Thursday next week. 16:11:20 <stgraber> (DONE) 16:12:01 <slangasek> ev: why are we damning tmux? 16:12:16 <ev> slangasek: because setting up multiuser tmux was eating up way too much time 16:12:30 <slangasek> ev: ah, so tmux isn't actually better than screen :) 16:12:34 <ev> slangasek: it has a real fun time trying to negotiate the screen size 16:12:41 <xnox> slangasek: and /me killing the group session by accident did not help either. 16:12:43 <ev> slangasek: if anyone exits tmux, EVERYONE DIES 16:12:44 <slangasek> ev: +1 on retracers moving to prodstack - very cool 16:12:58 <ev> slangasek: yup! We're moving the whole stack minus cassandra, actually 16:13:02 <ev> just talked through it with Tom 16:13:52 <xnox> * Fix UTAH ISO smoke testing: 16:13:52 <xnox> - correct bind mounts for DHCP (bug 1061242) 16:13:52 <xnox> - re-enable wubi test (lp:~xnox/utah/wubi-still-exists) 16:13:52 <xnox> - pep8 fixes (lp:~xnox/utah/new-pep8) 16:13:52 <xnox> * Requesting separate & more comprehensive static ISO image validation 16:13:53 <xnox> in UTAH without blocking other tests (bug 1088444) 16:13:53 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1061242 in ubiquity (Ubuntu) "apt-install fails during success-command because target environment cannot resolve DNS" [High,Incomplete] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1061242 16:13:55 <xnox> * Fix racy upstart test for dep8, but a different one failed in 16:13:56 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1088444 in UTAH "ISO static validation non-critical tests" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1088444 16:13:57 <xnox> jenkins =( (bug 1089159) 16:13:58 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1089159 in upstart (Ubuntu) "ADT test-suite failure" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/1089159 16:13:59 <xnox> * Upload new procenv and identify cause for upstart test suite failure 16:14:01 <xnox> in debian on amd64/xfs 16:14:03 <xnox> * Fix above with a libnih merge proposal (bug 672643) 16:14:04 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 672643 in libnih "make test fails on xfs filesystem" [Low,Triaged] https://launchpad.net/bugs/672643 16:14:07 <xnox> * Verify ubiquity SRUs (bug 792652) (bug 887879) (bug 1027648) 16:14:09 <xnox> (bug 1055967) (bug 1070427) 16:14:10 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 792652 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "ubiquity crashed with ValueError in command(): I/O operation on closed file" [High,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/792652 16:14:11 <xnox> * Add quantal/raring to manpages.ubuntu.com and file RT#57985 for 16:14:12 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 887879 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "ubiquity crashed with ValueError in raw_decode(): No JSON object could be decoded" [Medium,Fix committed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/887879 16:14:13 <xnox> deployment 16:14:13 <ubottu> Launchpad bug 1027648 in ubiquity (Ubuntu Precise) "ubiquity crashed with ValueError in command(): I/O operation on closed file."
