Is there anything I should do, SZ-san? 09:04:06 SZ-san, thanks. Let me move on. 09:04:15 I'll take it 09:04:22 hi! 09:04:30 5. Post LTP results to KernelCI - patersonc 09:04:43 No updates on this 09:04:59 patersonc: Sure, thanks. 09:05:06 any other topics? 09:05:14 3 09:05:17 2 09:05:20 1 09:05:21 #topic Kernel maintenance updates 09:05:29 Thanks to Iwamatsu-san and Pavel-san, three kernels were released since the last IRC meeting. 09:05:35 v4.19.120-cip26 and v4.4.222-cip45 on 11th May by Iwamatsu-san 09:05:40 v4.19.120-cip25-rt10 on 11th May by Pavel-san 09:05:45 That's all from me. 09:05:50 I have reviewed 4.19.122 and .123. 09:05:56 a lot of CVEs this week, though mostly from fuzzers 09:06:08 I reviewed 4.4.221 and 222. 09:06:43 I backported some fixed for stable branches 4.14, 4.9, and 4.4 09:06:52 *fixes 09:07:12 "spi: spi-dw: Add lock protect dw_spi rx/tx to prevent concurrent call" for CVE-2020-12769 needs backport to 4.4 and 4.9 09:08:30 wens: socfpga uses that controller, so that might be relevant. 09:09:50 wens: I can work about this CVE. 09:11:00 paveltest, wens, iwamatsu, bwh: Thanks for your works! 09:11:07 any other topics? 09:11:14 3 09:11:16 2 09:11:19 "scsi: sg: add sg_remove_request in sg_write" for CVE-2020-12770 needs backport to all LTS branches; this looks like some sort of resource leak in the SCSI subsystem 09:11:19 1 09:11:33 my computer crashed :/ 09:12:37 wens: thanks for your reports. do you have any others? 09:13:06 there's one CVE related to KVM SVM on x86 09:14:09 looks like Siemens uses that? 09:14:38 That's actually one of my questions: a lot of stable patches is about KVM. Does someone use it in CIP project? Siemens? 09:14:41 SVM is for AMD CPUs only, so it might not actually be used 09:15:30 maybe we could ask them to remove it from their config? 09:16:04 It certainly seems worth querying 09:16:43 wens: Could you ask them? 09:16:58 another feature that I find unlikely to be used: XDP sockets, enabled for Hitachi cyclonev 09:18:30 masashi910: I don't have any contact info on hand; I can probably ask SZ for that 09:19:13 wens: sure 09:19:27 wens, sz: thanks! 09:20:12 wens: Regarding cycloneV, it is on the reference list. Do you think XDP sockets are not used? 09:20:15 https://wiki.linuxfoundation.org/civilinfrastructureplatform/ciptesting/cipreferencehardware 09:21:14 XDP (express data path) is used for network intensive workloads to bypass certain parts of the network stack 09:22:15 I believe it is used by big tech / web stuff, not embedded 09:23:18 wens: I see. It could be related to our backport policy. So, let me trigger this discussion among the kernel team offline. 09:23:32 thanks 09:23:37 wens: Thanks for all your works! 09:23:58 Let's move on. 09:24:13 #topic Kernel testing 09:24:20 patersonc: the floor is yours. 09:25:09 Hello 09:25:30 My time this week was mainly spent upgrading the LAVA infrastructure to the latest version of upstream lava-docker 09:25:38 It's all done now and the labs are back up and running 09:25:47 Although I forgot to tell the ML... 09:26:23 I'll try and do upgrades monthly or so to avoid the massive technical debt we had this time 09:26:36 That's about it from me I think 09:26:53 patersonc: Thanks for your works. 09:27:12 any other topics? 09:27:19 3 09:27:22 2 09:27:23 1 09:27:25 #topic CIP Core 09:27:42 Daniel-san or Punit-san, are you around? 09:28:15 Let's skip. 09:28:17 #topic Software update 09:28:23 suzuki: the floor is yours. 09:28:33 Hello. 09:28:36 I'm working on the task which to clean SWUpdate branch on isar-cip-core: https://gitlab.com/cip-project/cip-sw-updates/cip-sw-updates-tasks/-/issues/3 09:28:45 Currently I'm fixing and testing the SWUpdate branch which is kept up with master branch in isar-cip-core. 09:28:54 That's it from me. 09:29:05 suzuki: thanks for your works. 09:29:10 any other topics? 09:29:20 3 09:29:23 2 09:29:26 1 09:29:29 #topic CIP Security 09:29:35 yoshidak[m]: the floor is yours. 09:29:45 Hi 09:29:53 Nothing from me in this week due to my shutting off. 09:30:03 I'll resume reporting from next week. 09:30:26 yoshidak[m]: Noted.
