05:36 diana_coman http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-12#1895610 -> fwiw the thing is..still running given the full set of loops
05:36 a111 Logged on 2019-02-12 23:41 mircea_popescu: i'm still waiting for diana_coman to return.
05:38 diana_coman I think a gradual approach (i.e. run it & record results gradually increasing the number of loops) might be useful meanwhile
05:40 diana_coman so I'll post the testing code with full set of loops in a bit and then go and set up another run too
~ 34 minutes ~
06:14 diana_coman basic test including serpent + test project with full set of loops : ossasepia.com/available_resources/ljmp_test.tar
~ 3 hours 7 minutes ~
09:22 asciilifeform diana_coman: day+ ?! is this just 1 shot of benchmark, or many ?
09:23 asciilifeform imho whole day is a bit of overkill if for ~one~ shot..
09:24 diana_coman asciilifeform, one! and look here at times: 1 loop -> 0.000168893 s ; 2 loops -> 0.007213758 s ; 3 loops -> 0.351611073 s ; 4 loops -> 17.74 s ; 5 loops-> 879.95 s
09:25 diana_coman hence my original only 3 loops really; but mircea_popescu asked for the full set of 23 loops so there it is, still running
09:25 diana_coman for completeness: the set of data above is from a different machine hence a bit faster than those of yest
09:26 diana_coman 5 loops is already 15 minutes and ftr 6 loops is still running on that machine as we speak - by the looks of it, it'll be more than 1 hour
09:30 diana_coman it's of course not exactly surprising, given that one goes from 50 serpent executions to 50mn rather quickly
09:30 mircea_popescu diana_coman darn, i utterly miscalculated it. does

09:32 mircea_popescu diana_coman a through j ; for 1 to 10 mod 4 plox.
09:32 mircea_popescu i might be the weakest person in the world for basic arithmetics.
09:32 diana_coman ah; why 10 mod 4 and not ..hm, 6?
09:32 diana_coman uhm, 2
09:33 mircea_popescu diana_coman idea was to go twice per loop, rather than 1nce. 2 will go in too many times still
09:33 diana_coman ah, so if a mod 4 = 0 you mean
09:33 diana_coman right
09:33 mircea_popescu yeah
09:33 diana_coman from 1 to 10; if mod 4; got it

09:42 mircea_popescu diana_coman seems it stabilizes after 3 loops or so, if you look, it's within a few % with .007s and pretty much there at 0.35s
09:43 mircea_popescu diana_coman try whole 23 loops, same 1 to 10 mod 4 plox ?
09:43 * diana_coman will try
09:43 mircea_popescu turns out a serpent takes about 2.8 microseconds.
09:45 diana_coman 1.259 s
09:45 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i think her work above provides us with some useful data : it turns out it is reasonable to expect timings converge for measured intervals of at least 1/3 of a second, on the basis of the above.

09:47 lobbesbot mircea_popescu: 3.00168991089e-07
09:47 mircea_popescu there's something amiss here.
09:47 diana_coman because the clock thing is not very precise; on 4 runs of same thing I got: 1.25, 1.27, 1.29, 1.28
09:48 mircea_popescu diana_coman the problem is this : on the basis of this last run, we're estimating serpent to take 0.3 microseconds.
09:48 mircea_popescu on the basis of the previous timings you reported, we estimated it ~2.8 microseconds
09:48 mircea_popescu this is degree of magnitude off, somehow. wanna walk through the math with me ?
09:48 diana_coman and both of them are likely to be more due to measurement error
09:49 diana_coman wait, what?
09:49 diana_coman 0.3 vs 2.8? ugh
09:49 mircea_popescu except the other set converged, look : 3.37786e-06 2.8855032e-06 2.812888584e-06 2.8384e-06 2.81584e-06

09:49 a111 Logged on 2019-02-13 14:24 diana_coman: asciilifeform, one! and look here at times: 1 loop -> 0.000168893 s ; 2 loops -> 0.007213758 s ; 3 loops -> 0.351611073 s ; 4 loops -> 17.74 s ; 5 loops-> 879.95 s
09:49 mircea_popescu is this faux convergence then ?
09:50 diana_coman can't quite tell tbh
09:50 mircea_popescu ok, but indulge me :
09:50 * diana_coman will need to leave for about 1 hr in ~5min time but will read
09:50 mircea_popescu we are currently entering the loop twice, and we enter a total of 22 loops. therefore the number of times serpent is run is 2 ^ 22.
09:51 mircea_popescu a ok.
09:52 diana_coman that much sounds good

10:22 * asciilifeform tried to unravel wtf was found here
10:22 asciilifeform *tries
10:23 asciilifeform diana_coman, mircea_popescu : all of above is still just the baseline (no longjmpism) case ?
10:25 mircea_popescu yes.
10:25 asciilifeform based only on above, i suspect a case of http://btcbase.org/log/2019-01-10#1886261
10:25 a111 Logged on 2019-01-10 14:08 asciilifeform: aaand to round off : it vanished on the test box also. culprit appears to have been a running raid-verify job...
10:26 mircea_popescu asciilifeform basically, we found i can't math ; that aside, we found that in one context serpent takes ~3us, and in another ~0.3us.
10:26 asciilifeform diana_coman , when come back, plox to briefly describe the box
10:26 mircea_popescu do me a favour first and let's nail the numbers down. so, for 1 to 100 if mod 2 results in the loop being run 50 times ? or 49 ?
10:27 mircea_popescu http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/YaMpS/?raw=true << code snippet.
10:28 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: 50
10:28 asciilifeform how else
10:28 asciilifeform there are 50 even #s b/w 1 and 100 incl.
10:29 mircea_popescu alright. and if there's 22 for loops, this means the correct count of "how many times serpent is run" is 50 ^ 22 then ?
10:30 asciilifeform in the pasted snippet, each outer loop multiplies the shots of inner by 50
10:31 asciilifeform so yes if you make 22, then 50 ^ 22
10:31 mircea_popescu so then what the fuck.
10:31 asciilifeform that's quite a few, even if you had nuffin in the middle of it
10:32 mircea_popescu right. point being, she did 1 to 5 loop sets of that, and the values converged.
10:32 mircea_popescu then they suddenly diverged by order of magnitude.
10:32 asciilifeform i'ma guess box ground to a halt during the 5-loops run, for a spell
10:33 asciilifeform ( why -- cannot say until diana_coman returns with brief description of the irons )
10:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform incidentally and unrelatedly, since i'm fixing this other article : do you happen to recall the trilema piece where "middle age crisis" ie, dood getting rid of older wife hooking up with younger girl is explained in terms of "well, she won't be as fucking annoying" ?
10:35 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: possibly was 'the peak of insanity'
10:40 * asciilifeform doesn't like benchmarks where 1 shot takes moar than coupla min, for the reason that unix box is a shitfest, liable to decide 'hey nao is the time to munge the fs' etc. and suddenly eat cpu for multiple min, whenever
10:41 asciilifeform if yer proggy takes >=12h, this is certain to happen, it'll run up against cron
10:41 asciilifeform ( depending on what you got in there )
10:42 mircea_popescu asciilifeform note that a set of up to 200s converged, and then a 1 1/4 s item diverged.
10:44 mircea_popescu http://trilema.com/2011/barbati-si-copile/ << found it ; was ro which is why it had "disappeared"
10:44 asciilifeform ha
10:44 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: this is why i like 'run 9000 shots, and discard outliers' (granted this only applies when the item is expected to go in constant time, goes without saying)
10:47 * asciilifeform brb,teatime
10:47 mircea_popescu anyway, she'll be back momentarily and we'll dig into it smore.

12:24 diana_coman mircea_popescu, I think it was a mis-communication really
12:24 diana_coman I got stuck here in traffic earlier too, hence my being late, sorry;
12:25 diana_coman anyways, back to it: for one thing you were comparing there numbers from different machines and I get the impression you got the "4 runs" in the 2nd report to mean different loops while they were not (it was same thing, repeated)
12:27 * diana_coman goes to write this down properly alreayd
~ 1 hours 8 minutes ~
13:35 diana_coman mircea_popescu, I found the key misunderstanding there (in addition to comparing different machines and all that): the 1.25value is when serpent is fully optimised for time i.e. it goes from ~8s to 1.25 for full 22 loops 1..10, mod 4; sorry for the confusion there, I was still in exploration mode.
13:36 asciilifeform diana_coman: plox clarify what means 'fully optimized for time' here
13:36 diana_coman Serpent has pragma Optimize(Time)
13:36 diana_coman gprbuild accepts levels of optimization via -O flag
13:37 asciilifeform aaa
13:37 diana_coman with no optimization (or -O0 iirc) it's ~8s; with -O3 it's 1.25s
13:37 asciilifeform i assumed you used same flags for all shots
13:38 asciilifeform ( ftr all 'canonical' ffa tests are built with o2 : http://btcbase.org/patches/ffa_ch16_miller_rabin.kv/tree/ffa/libffa/ffa.gpr#L56 )
13:40 diana_coman at that specific shot I was exploring esp given the previous issue of "too long time"
13:41 diana_coman anyways, I'll compile the dataset and publish it in a bit
13:41 asciilifeform historically i found that o3 is moar or less unusable for benchmarking anyffin, it risks to 'optimize away' unexpected pieces ( for instance, quite possibly your loop-and-mod-2 )
13:42 diana_coman bc exploring I went http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-13#1895742 and I was getting confused too but anyways

16:35 diana_coman I'm trying to rebuild it because current build doesn't have sjlj

16:38 diana_coman the script to rebuild ran?
16:38 asciilifeform this, not tested except on orig
16:38 diana_coman or gnat itself? because gnat itself runs /ran perfectly fine, yes
16:38 asciilifeform aa hrm.
16:38 diana_coman hence only now I ran into this puzzler
16:40 diana_coman since it seems it'll take a while until I can add to my data the numbers for sjlj on ave1's gnat as well, here's what I have so far: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/1esL2/?raw=true
16:40 asciilifeform diana_coman: this may even be the culprit behind ( still unresolved afaik ) http://btcbase.org/log/2018-06-03#1820460

16:40 asciilifeform ( asciilifeform was not able to build a working x64 gnat from the arm64 gnat )
16:41 diana_coman I guess until now I always built ave1's gnat on a machine that had adacore's gnat installed with all the paths to libs like that quite standard so possibly that's why it never failed
16:42 asciilifeform defo sounds like 1 or moar of his built bins aint static
16:44 diana_coman it seems to me that it's just a path/configure that remains /is carried over from where the gnat was built
16:47 diana_coman specifically, here's an example (with the path marked by me for clarity): build/build-bootstrap/gcc-4.9.adacore2016/build1/mpc/src/libmpc.la:dependency_libs=' OLD_PATH/lib/libgmp.la NEW_PATH_CORRECT/lib/libgmp.la'

16:47 asciilifeform ( i thought i checked this prior, but apparently not; no dynamics bins tho )
16:47 asciilifeform aah so hardcoded path, hrm
16:48 diana_coman yes and moreover weirdly enough it DOES have the correct one too, but it comes only after the wrong/old one and so it fails 'cause it can't find that

16:54 diana_coman there was the earlier mess-up with the 2 datasets hence my current stress of the fact, that's all
16:55 * asciilifeform not picking on diana_coman out of sadism, simply had nfi how to parse that line
16:55 asciilifeform aa ok
16:56 BingoBoingo asciilifeform: Dispatch sent via hEathenMAIL, content http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/0crQm/?raw=true
16:56 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: imho a++
16:56 diana_coman sorry, the ref to previous mess wasn't quite clear, you're right
16:56 asciilifeform BingoBoingo: after mircea_popescu nitpicks, perhaps this oughta be used as a template for others
16:57 * diana_coman needs some sleep
16:59 asciilifeform aa its sleep time in diana_comanistan aint it
16:59 diana_coman at least there are no more surprises of huge differences in timings; but I'd still test also with some exception handling since that's supposed to slow sjlj down
17:00 asciilifeform as i understand that's the 1 thing that's expected to slow
17:00 diana_coman asciilifeform, it's been a bit of a long day too, sorry; strictly speaking you are in fact right there: that line compares them yes,if only to stress that "ofc they are different"
17:01 asciilifeform diana_coman: sleep, and i expect the output will come out before you wake up. meanwhile i'ma see if i can figure out wtf re the paths.
17:01 diana_coman the output?
17:01 asciilifeform of the remaining runs
17:01 asciilifeform ( or are these on hold pending gnat rebuild ? )
17:02 diana_coman on hold atm since a. for sjlj on smg.test yes, need gnat rebuild b. for the rest it's unclear if it's worth to run or which ones so rather pending mircea_popescu feedback
17:02 asciilifeform aaa ok
17:04 diana_coman re paths I suppose a simple grep -r "libmpc" would show perhaps duplicates if nothing else?
17:04 diana_coman i.e. where/if the trouble is not somehow just on my machine (though I got it on 2 machines...)
17:05 asciilifeform the only hit is x86_64-linux-musl/share/info/mpc.info -- a readme
17:05 asciilifeform ( in the built gnat )
17:06 diana_coman well, that doesn't have the scripts too, does it?
17:07 asciilifeform no, and i'ma look on the build box
17:07 diana_coman it would have at most the path I suppose, if it's hardcoded somewhere
17:07 * asciilifeform will come back to this puzzler; presently bbl (meat)
17:07 diana_coman no hurry, I'll get back to it tomorrow morning anyway
~ 1 hours 27 minutes ~

18:59 mircea_popescu this, this thing that is now a thing and will be much more of a thing, this thing was first announced, and first demonstrated on trilema.
19:00 mircea_popescu asciilifeform the relation between "official" and "defector" is in your head because as it happened to work in the soviet union, all jobs were state jobs. the new soviet pretends "private", and so you can have non-officials that are nevertheless defectors.
19:00 mircea_popescu head of nominally private raytheon nevertheless will defect to great acclaim.
19:00 mircea_popescu and so various execs in nominally "private" usg state entreprises.
19:01 asciilifeform i suppose if chairman of crapple or somesuch moves to huawei, that also 'defect'. but garden hr chix ?
19:01 mircea_popescu if the makers of the reich's airport security theatre crystal globes don't count as crown to ye...

19:03 mircea_popescu "creating the future" or whatever the fuck. it's 100% as much crown as ye olde Министерство монтажных и специальных строительных работ СССР.
19:04 mircea_popescu so, yes, i claim first mover, and for good (and well fucking documented) reasons. cuz it's what it is, what.
19:05 asciilifeform that wasn't my nitpick tho ( it's sure as fuck 'crown' ) but re ~who~ runs off. is it a 'defection' if lowly paper pusher , and not brass ?
19:06 asciilifeform ( not to mention, there's ~0 seekrit about the tech, it's deadly snoar )
19:10 asciilifeform to rewrite the eqn, how many nicoleci's would mircea_popescu have to lure off, to visibly dent the thing
19:11 asciilifeform ( i suppose could empty it of chix, if there were 9000 mircea_popescu's , but there's exactly 1, at least in my light cone )
19:14 asciilifeform on top of this, backbone of bureaucracy is reddit-fat / old bags, these are safe from mircea_popescuation as i understand

19:35 mircea_popescu you really ~can't imagine~ how threadbare the reich insides are.

19:44 mircea_popescu not much of a high bar.
19:46 mircea_popescu asciilifeform anyway, the fault for "there's exactly 1" lies not-with-me!!! i do not as much as keep it secret ; or not make a point of it ; or anything else.
19:46 * asciilifeform recalls the (perhaps) apotheosis of 'republic of ichkeria', when they held council to pick 'official language', and close runner-up to arabic (which ~nobody knew) was... osman turkish . which , presumably, no archaeologist could be found to excavate, and so the thread died.
19:47 mircea_popescu item was deeply lulzy from a lot of perspective ; but i will point out and udnerscore that no one was well equipped to appreciate that lulz prior to this here republic's senate discussions.
19:48 mircea_popescu take the recent "what should be language ?" "ada" "well... turns out it's broken!!!" proceedings ; THEN compare with the chechen history.
19:48 mircea_popescu instant comedy goldmine.
19:49 asciilifeform how folx react to 'hrm, this -- is broken' is possibly the ultimate exam.
19:49 mircea_popescu absolutely.

19:50 asciilifeform ( see also the perpetuum mobile / square circles thrd )
19:51 mircea_popescu aha!
19:57 * asciilifeform wouldn't be terribly surprised if one day mircea_popescu digs up the wreckage of an attempted 'trilema' that was run in e.g. classical greek , tho
19:57 asciilifeform not counting, err, the actual dead greeks' , that is
19:57 mircea_popescu i don't really expect it, because you need specific technologies to enable it.
19:57 mircea_popescu possibly on bbs ; though i think you beat me to punch, dug out naggum.
19:58 mircea_popescu also possibly on early web ; but similarly, dug out uncle al.
19:58 asciilifeform naggum burned out like cheap american match.
19:58 mircea_popescu this much is true, trilema beat the decade huh.

19:59 asciilifeform well, he was what he referred to as 'organiker' , i.e. synthetic chemist in the germanic tradition. the industry evaporated from under him.
19:59 asciilifeform last i knew d00d wasn't dead yet, but tended his garden (actual garden, with cabbages) in silence.

20:01 mircea_popescu (and native finish speaking sluts reading ? report to the whoremaster general.)
20:01 * asciilifeform will admit to having eaten some of the lang, but strictly for sport, and by no means could atm stand for duty as translator
20:01 mircea_popescu yeah ; i have no mind of ever mandating it.
20:02 asciilifeform sad ol' dead lang.
20:02 mircea_popescu hungarian (the only equally retarded non-language) is comparatively easy because w/e, half of cluj ever spoke it. but finish ?
20:02 mircea_popescu nobody even speaks the damned thing.

20:32 mircea_popescu should possibly also do the http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-12#1895520 test tho (even though on a good compiler, there really shouldn't be much difference between a call and a loop)

20:34 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: correct
20:34 mircea_popescu asciilifeform yes, but it's the job of "optimizing" compiler to keep all that to a low roar.
20:34 asciilifeform the compiler can slim it down to just the return addr, but the latter goes always
20:34 mircea_popescu i've been thinking about how to correctly construct a calling test for this purpose, but i confess nothing i have yet is passing muster. if anyone wants to step in.

20:38 mod6 http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/BoTML/?raw=true << Ok, so after installing Cuntoo, I did what I said I'd do, which was test editing the append section and throwing a UUID in there instead of 'root=/dev/sda3'. It didn't work, I did get a kern dump.
20:40 mod6 I think that I might be on the right track here though, and I did try a few other things after reading some documentation. For instance, after the above, I changed /etc/fstab to use only UUIDs instead of '/dev/sda{1,2,3}', and then tried that. Same problem essentialy. I also found about 'PARTUUID', which is supposed to help in certain circumstances. Nothing has worked yet...
20:40 asciilifeform mod6: does it boot if /dev/sdb3 ?
20:40 mod6 No Sir.
20:41 asciilifeform same type of barf ?
20:41 mod6 Then I got on the track that perhaps i do need to have an initramfs.
20:41 mod6 Yes.
20:41 mircea_popescu mod6 is the disk hanging off internal port or usb port ?
20:42 mircea_popescu ie, sata or usb ?
20:42 mod6 So I went to build one, but that was barfing on me. Which lead me to find this kernel option 'CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y'. Which would help me complete the build of the initramfs. http://www.mod6.net/cuntoo-blog-1/genkern/genkern.jpg
20:43 mod6 But I keep getting failures that say "Failed to compile the "all" target. No matter what I do it seems.
20:43 mod6 mircea_popescu: It's SATA.
20:43 mod6 my disk is a WD 250Gb SSD SATA
20:44 mod6 So perhaps im kindof on the right track - use UUIDs where I can, and build an initramfs... however, haven't had a lot of success with building the initramfs yet. I may have to fight through that. But that's the latest update.
20:46 mircea_popescu from what i gather actually setting the correct path (ie, /sda3 or w/e it actually is) should really do it. i don't expect you can just unilaterally set uuids, gotta make them work from the other end too first.
20:47 mod6 Oh, i totally felt the same way.
20:47 mod6 The days leading up to the blog post, i used nothing but names: /dev/sda{1,2,3} and eschewed UUIDs totally.
20:47 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: it'll do it , supposing that kernel actually sees the disk ( whether it does, is not obv, observe that it dun come up in the kernel barfola )
20:47 mod6 But since that was an utter failure, I'm just trying something different because of /dev/disk/by-uuid/ or whatever it is.
20:48 mircea_popescu asciilifeform right.
20:48 asciilifeform mod6: seems like you may have build a kernel that dun see your sata chipset.
20:48 asciilifeform mod6: bring up a working barbarian linux on that box and lsmod -v
20:48 mircea_popescu asciilifeform it'd be a lot more possible if the same kernel on same machine didn't boot before.
20:48 asciilifeform see what it wants
20:48 asciilifeform waitasec is it actually test with old kernel ??
20:48 mircea_popescu i thought so ?
20:49 mod6 certainly possible. seems totally wacky to me that the same kernel config would boot gentoo perfectly, but not cuntoo. note in the wotpaste above that I copied in my /usr/src/linux/.config from gentoo directly and build that config.
20:49 asciilifeform observe that 'old config' != 'old kernel' if the src tree were swapped
20:49 mircea_popescu hm
20:50 mod6 Right, well, cuntoo expands all of those things and build it, you just feed it a config. So if there is something that is "off" about my config with some other slightly different source version, then that might be a part of it.
20:50 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo "In light of the outlaw status being forced upon your organization, it is advisable to begin to operate accordingly." << too bulky contentless. that's supposed to be the closer neh.
20:50 asciilifeform mod6: if you were to take this exact thing, and stick it onto a usb , and then it boots when '/dev/sda3' -- then you will know that the above is it
20:51 asciilifeform ( and you'll then need to find what yer sata is hanging off, and rebuild with it baked in )
20:51 mod6 Ok, so you're saying: Do all of the above steps, but instead of using a SATA SSD, inflate cuntoo onto a USB stick?
20:51 asciilifeform supposing, that is, you didn't also manage to produce a kernel that dun see yer usb chip
20:52 BingoBoingo mircea_popescu: ty, will try lightening up the payload copy for mass distribution
20:52 mod6 I did look through the makemenuconfig, there are a lot of added in USB drivers. however, there was one option that I noticed that I should look hard at (all when trying to do the genkernel for different reasons), which is the Intel USB Drivers.
20:52 mod6 So, if I take this route, I'll have to make sure those options are turned on for sure.
20:53 asciilifeform all i can see from the paste is that the thing dun see any disks at all.
20:53 mod6 I know right!
20:53 mod6 It's wild.
20:53 mod6 Totally is blowing my hair back.
20:53 asciilifeform mod6: where didja get the kernel srcs for this build ?
20:53 mircea_popescu BingoBoingo gotta have a great hook.
20:54 mod6 Which is why, in the first place, I thought I had a bad SSD. Which is why I ended up buying a second one just to be sure.
20:54 mod6 asciilifeform: everything comes with trinque's cuntoo afaik
20:54 mod6 His thing has the stage3 in there iirc.
20:55 asciilifeform it's entirely conceivable that his are moar recent than mod6's older, working tree, and breaks support for mod6's card
20:55 mod6 Could be, a solid way to try to prove that is the USB Stick route. Because, I'm not super well versed in SATA kernel drivers.
20:55 asciilifeform ( linux is notorious for 'oh hey we added a new required flag and ha even tho you set x, y, z, device d no longer gets its module because fuckyou ' )
20:55 mod6 yup, liqshit.
20:56 mod6 it's like, fuck this, I want a "GIVE_ME_EVERYTHING_YOUVE_GOT_WHORE" flag that build every driver known.
20:56 asciilifeform for so long as we're under 'iron babel' and errybody has 9000 types of unique machine, we're stuck with this horror
20:56 mircea_popescu i guess. honestly, i'd expect to see logs reflecting failure to init sata if that were the case.
20:56 asciilifeform mod6: you get a 500MB kernel then, lol
20:57 mod6 Shit, 500Mb no problem.
20:57 mod6 at least I could figure out wtf and try to pair it down later.
20:57 asciilifeform mircea_popescu: failure to init caused by 'i have nfi what is this chip' is silent on linux.
20:57 mod6 instead of 6900 reboots
20:57 asciilifeform ~why~ is q to ask torvalds when you nail him to the cross, not me
20:57 mircea_popescu i thought some peripherals whined.
20:57 asciilifeform nope
20:57 asciilifeform only if 'vendor id' etc ~matched~ and still no dice when init.
20:58 mircea_popescu hm
20:58 asciilifeform this is how it behaved, from the 1st published kernel and to present day
20:58 asciilifeform silently ignores 'unknown' irons
20:59 mircea_popescu yes, but what i mean, if it manages to build with no sata/no ide it says ; similarily if no netcard ; and i dun recall what else.
20:59 mircea_popescu possibly nokbd ?
20:59 asciilifeform it dun give a damn
20:59 asciilifeform simply barfs like depicted in mod6's paste -- 'where the fuck is / ? halted'
20:59 mircea_popescu my vague memories not fresh enough to pursue this line.
20:59 asciilifeform mine unfortunately quite fresh.
21:00 asciilifeform bsd etc. behave similarly.
21:00 asciilifeform 'unix philosophy'(tm)(r) !!
21:00 mod6 The funny part is, it could jsut be this one really obnoxious setting that I'm missing; I feel like it was that way back when I did gentoo in '15.
21:00 asciilifeform fail silently and set house on fire.

21:01 mircea_popescu mod6 it seems rather likely.
21:01 mod6 *nod* it's something dumb as fuck
21:01 asciilifeform it comes, in this particular case, from the people who actually do http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896130 -- e.g. shituntu -- whose boot log would be 9000km long if ~every~ device that was simply not found, produced an eggog

21:01 mod6 i just have no idea what.
21:01 mircea_popescu asciilifeform not every device lol.
21:02 asciilifeform erry module that doesn't find its device, i meant
21:02 mircea_popescu a. hm.
21:02 mircea_popescu well it couldn't come from THEM, linux existed long before they.
21:03 asciilifeform was always built like this, tho. module that doesn't find its device, in some cases reports (e.g. in mod6's log, the raid) but usually says nuffin.
21:03 mircea_popescu right ; but i expect the sata is like the raid, not like the soundblaster.
21:03 mircea_popescu that's all really.
21:04 mircea_popescu ie, from a cursory look at his published logs, my impression was that the kernel has sata just fine, but the disk's not plugged in the config-set hole or somesuch.
21:04 mircea_popescu now, ianae, so.
21:05 asciilifeform here, have a line from a working box : [ 3.129745] sd 0:0:0:0: Attached scsi generic sg0 type 0
21:05 asciilifeform ^ when finds a sata .
21:05 asciilifeform notice there aint one in his.
21:05 mod6 fair enough
21:06 mircea_popescu asciilifeform i see 0.971934] SCSI subsystem initialized ?
21:06 asciilifeform all he's got, is a [ 0.971934] SCSI subsystem initialized , which happens when kernel brought up regardless of whether any module matches up to working disk hanger
21:06 mircea_popescu ah. well ok then.
21:06 mircea_popescu this is a good point ; basically i misread that line.
21:06 mod6 So next mission is to use a clean USB drive, and inflate cuntoo onto that, and then try?
21:07 mod6 See, I kinda thought the SCSI subsystem thing meant that SATA was ready.
21:07 asciilifeform mod6: quickest way to learn wtf, i suspect, is to dump the thing bitwise onto a usb, and boot that, then lsmod -v and diff with your known working set's lsmod -v output.
21:07 asciilifeform mod6: nope , that line gets printed if kernel compiled with scsi option set, regardless of whether any card.
21:08 mod6 so, `dd` the entire cuntoo ssd disk onto a usb, then attempt to boot the USB, and then do the lsmod diff between the USB cuntoo and the SSD cuntoo?
21:08 asciilifeform correct
21:08 mod6 alrighty then.
21:09 asciilifeform i expect you'll need a root=/dev/sda3 in the kernel cmdline and similar in fstab.
21:09 mod6 Might take a bit, but I'll begin work on that tomorrow-ish. Should have something to look at hopefully by Friday evening-ish. I'll inflate an entirely fresh cuntoo.
21:09 * asciilifeform brb,meatsystems
21:09 mod6 I want it ~clean~ and not munged up by whatever other attemps and genkernel fuckery.
21:09 mod6 Ok, thank you gentlemen. I appreciate the insight & help.

22:00 trinque http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896084 << what is the reasoning behind this?
22:00 a111 Logged on 2019-02-14 01:41 mod6: Then I got on the track that perhaps i do need to have an initramfs.
22:00 trinque there's all this metaphoric content without rooting to anything, which makes it hard to track where your head's at to have what with to help
22:01 trinque initramfs is used when the kernel can't mount the root fs without using a program to do something complicated first, i.e. loading firmware, unpacking a squashfs in an embedded device, etc
22:01 trinque the only reason initramfs is used on personal machines is that the users have been lost to sloth and "can't be expected" to build own kernel
22:02 trinque http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896088 << this is precisely backwards; doing that is the right answer to ^ and ~obviates~ the need for an initramfs for the firmware purpose
22:02 a111 Logged on 2019-02-14 01:42 mod6: So I went to build one, but that was barfing on me. Which lead me to find this kernel option 'CONFIG_FIRMWARE_IN_KERNEL=y'. Which would help me complete the build of the initramfs. http://www.mod6.net/cuntoo-blog-1/genkern/genkern.jpg
22:02 trinque this is precisely what I do, and I load all manner of "liquishit" hardware (like amd GPUs) without initramfs
22:03 trinque I highly encourage you to not accidentally haul in an artifact of "user can't be expected to" into cuntoo
22:04 trinque very glad to see your experiments with using the UUID labels btw; I'm soon to haul that into the script. I do want to remind that this won't change the genesis that is produced by the bootstrapper.
22:04 trinque I still want to know whether your genesis.vpatch matches mine, and this is at least as important as whether it produced a bootable drive
22:06 mod6 So the thinking behind initramfs: 1. I have one on the working gentoo on that box, 2. from what I've read that can help with various kernel related problems
22:07 mod6 I'm not a "kernel hacker guy", so I've been down these roads based on trying to emulate what I see working in my other machines, and various online posts in teh gentoo forums and others.
22:07 trinque so "because I have this amulet" I'm not interested in what trinque is trying to teach me about what the amulet is?
22:08 mod6 You have to understand, that I'm not trying to piss you off here. I don't even look at it on this level.
22:08 mod6 I'm just a guy, trying to boot the thing so I can test something totally not related to kernel mods.
22:09 mod6 If going through all the motions to try to figure out what the actual hardware problem is, and it'll get me across the finish line, great. I'll do that, but I think you're acting as if I'm somehow trying to violate you.
22:09 trinque my telling you that you're doing so incorrectly is not an emotion
22:10 trinque nor would "mod6 now knows about initramfs and what they're for" do anything but set you up to understand later tools I have for the republic that actually use the things properly
22:10 mod6 trinque: I have little clue of what I'm doing. I'm just trying to solve it, in the only ways that I can.
22:11 trinque do you recall how to interact with the logs? I responded to some lines of yours there. what of them?
22:11 mod6 Sometimes that means taking a shot in the dark, even if it's misguided from the point of view of someone who knows better.
22:12 mod6 Trying to make an educated guess, or educated experiment I suppose. Are you disappointed that I tried to make the initramfs? If so, why does this bother you so?
22:13 mod6 I'm the fool here, not you.
22:13 trinque eh dude, explaining to you what's an initramfs is not calling you a fool.
22:13 trinque this is the entirety of the problem
22:14 mod6 Maybe we're talking past eachother a bit here. Anyway, I don't know much about these things. I'm kinda learning bit by bit as I go... it all certainly doesn't "fit in head" or whatever yet.
22:15 trinque lemme come at it another way. suppose your result here, absent my help, appears to be "this hardware only boots with initramfs"
22:15 trinque what is the consequence of that?
22:15 mod6 well, that's a win for me, the only thing that sucks is you don't get to make your improvements from my own experience.
22:16 mod6 But not matter what happens, I'll be sure to provide you with any information that I can provide. Who knows, maybe this is a shit system or some such.
22:17 trinque so your goal is to have a computer for mod6 on the back of my work, and if it incidentally helps get the cuntoo thing done, w/e
22:17 trinque since I have a fetish for futility, lemme press on
22:18 trinque so now you need an initramfs; what are you going to use to build it?
22:18 trinque genkernel? dracut? ... ?
22:18 mod6 I don't quite see it that way, I'm just trying to do Foundation work, that does overlap with the Cuntoo work.
22:18 trinque what's the dependency chain of what you chose? how much additional weight do you bring into the genesis.vpatch for portage?
22:19 mod6 So if you can glean soemthing off of my exp. that's great. I just didn't view the problems with my pos box to be super helpful to you.
22:19 mod6 Maybe it is, maybe misjudged.
22:19 trinque and by the way, note how easily "I did not read this thing; I just want to use" bloats the holy tree of meaning is illustrated here
22:20 mod6 I posted a jpg of the beginning of my genkernel. Basically there is another similar command to make the initramfs. Both end in failure that I spoke about above.
22:20 trinque so then. a core claim I'm making is *this is all I have ever needed to boot a sane linux on commodity hardware for years*
22:21 mod6 But alf helped me to realize that there is a way we can still try to diagnose this issue by trying to boot off of USB stick, so I'm going to attempt that first before any more initramfs stuff.
22:22 mod6 I'm not sure that I get your meaning.
22:23 mod6 Are you saying that your claim is that is what I'm saying, or is that what you are saying?
22:23 trinque I'm saying this is the aim in my building this item.
22:23 mod6 Anyway, do you agree with what alf has asked me to try next?
22:24 trinque that we have something to muntz further, and I'll strongly oppose any argument to ADD to it without hard justification
22:24 trinque recall the work with trb, and how much better a patch that removes is than one that adds.
22:24 mod6 Ok, I see this as distinctly differnt.
22:25 mod6 I'm not asking you to add my posbox foibles into your config. trb/ada/musl that I want to test on there doesn't care what kernel modules are loaded.
22:26 trinque I don't even think your box is a piece of shit.
22:26 trinque any more than my amd zenwhatever thing with 30 firmware to load before GPU will work properly
22:27 mod6 Ok, even if its not. I'm just saying I'd never expect anyone to follow the initramfs thing or any other thing. You know way more about what is kosher in gentoo/cuntoo than I do.
22:27 trinque I very much want you on an actual cuntoo because one of the immediate needs is a trb ebuild.
22:27 mod6 Cool, yeah, that too.
22:28 mod6 no worries, we'll get there.
22:28 mod6 I'll try to do this the way that #t sees fit. but, on my own, left to my own decision making (as I don't know much about these things) might be a bit askew.
22:29 mod6 Like I said, didn't mean to offend in any sort of manner. I just got excited, thinking I was on the right track, and tried to get the thing up and running. I mean, shit, it's been like 13 or 14 days now of reboots, inflations, etc.
22:29 trinque 0% offended man, I'll ask you to stop guessing at my state.
22:29 mod6 Anything that even remotely looks like the finish line seems like a win -- even if it's not.
22:30 trinque even willing to look at your box with you sometime
22:31 mod6 lol, not trying to guess your state. your language seems strong, so I sense irritation.
22:31 mircea_popescu he's from texas, they just talk in an accent there.
22:32 trinque the accent is yelling!
22:32 mod6 lol. I'm gonna have to do that when reading trinque. Just add accent.
22:32 mod6 i suspect that if we did have a beer irl, some of this would be cleared up.
22:32 mod6 anyway, im here for you baby.
22:32 mod6 and if alf's way seems like a sane thing to try, that's what I'm working on now. otherwise, I'm all ears and can adjust as you see fit.
22:33 trinque word
22:33 trinque proposal is that you investigate what initramfs is, which will lead to an answer on why one worked on the box you had before, which will lead to why you don't need one
22:35 mod6 ok, but it is understood that we're talking about the same box though, right?
22:36 trinque yeah, comparing a boot with initramfs to one without would be a fine thing; even better would be for you to bake your own initramfs sometime with say busybox, and have the init script drop to a shell so you can see what it is
22:36 trinque larger context here is I'm not eating a linux distribution by myself
22:36 trinque RECRUITS NEEDED
22:36 mod6 ok.
22:36 mod6 *nod*
22:38 mod6 you know, at one point i did actually handroll an initramfs on cuntoo, at which point I updated the /etc/lilo.conf and when I booted, and it panic'd, it did drop me into a shell.
22:38 mod6 but I didn't really know what do with it.
22:38 mod6 so i just wiped the disk again and moved on.
22:38 mod6 but, I just followed some steps, I didn't know too much about what it was doing, or myself.
22:39 mod6 you know? I think learning about it is a fine thing, probably would make me understand the errors of my ways.
22:40 * trinque is quite familiar with the impulse to torch the thing when it misbehaves, but it's not going to get us a distro we own.
22:41 mod6 I suppose there's some good wisdom in that. I wouldn't want mircea_popescu torch his trb if it does weird shit on a 'getinfo' either.
22:41 trinque ftr there are loads of interesting uses for initramfsen; we will have tooling to make them, but it has to come absent the sin of the load-all-modules thing and "lemme go automatically mount whatever root I can find" and miles else
22:41 trinque righto
22:41 mircea_popescu initramfs seems the logical intermediate step to romware.
22:42 mircea_popescu but a lot of this before we care about that.
22:42 * trinque nods
22:42 mod6 Ok, starting small, I got you. I dunno where the fire is either -- I don't know why I'm in any sort of rush here.
22:42 mircea_popescu in any case, on a sane system that's stable there's ~0 reason to have the CODE on disk.
22:42 * mircea_popescu has been playing the same heroes 2 for 20 years now. if it were on chip it'd have hurt nothing.
22:43 mircea_popescu not like i rebuild it every other week or w/e.
22:44 trinque very little justification for writable root. I've fiddled with the CD burning too.
22:45 mircea_popescu right. but for now, that'll lie as it fell.
22:46 mircea_popescu http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896202 << did this ever get answered ?
22:46 a111 Logged on 2019-02-14 03:04 trinque: I still want to know whether your genesis.vpatch matches mine, and this is at least as important as whether it produced a bootable drive
22:47 mod6 Oh, no, I got side tracked. It never did match up for me. Let me check on the latest one that was output.
22:47 trinque http://trinque.org/2018/11/27/cuntoo-bootstrapper/#comment-52 << latest sig
22:47 mod6 thx
22:47 trinque mod6: please post me your genesis somewhere so I can diff if it doesn't match.
22:47 trinque or if it does, so I can diff anyway and cackle with glee
22:47 mircea_popescu ^
22:48 mircea_popescu trinque nice avatar kekekex
22:50 trinque loller. john k still apparently allowing himself to be unpersoned after having admitted to having teenaged girlfriends, instead of joining the republic.
22:50 mircea_popescu who ?
22:51 trinque the ren and stimpy guy
22:51 mircea_popescu ah.
22:51 mod6 hmm, nope didn't verify. I threw in a sha512 of each sigfile just to ensure that I have the correct ones: http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/CCU2l/?raw=true
22:52 trinque mod6: can I get the genesis.vpatch ?
22:52 mircea_popescu they do a lot of this http://trilema.com/2018/the-night-of-the-hunter/#selection-133.0-133.542 lately, don't they.
22:52 mircea_popescu socialist future has no room for individual creators of beloved mass-cultural icons!!!
22:52 mircea_popescu burgeois-decadent^H^H patriarchy-oppressive!
22:53 trinque nope, there'd be cobain me2 by now if he hadn't eaten it
22:54 mircea_popescu im sure he fucked a bunch of seattle cokewhores without asking them.
22:55 mod6 http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/g7Y5f/?raw=true << weird, 133682 genesis.vpatch lines long tho, so maybe too big. I'll post it, one sec.
22:56 mircea_popescu kinda lulzy, considering they can't really stand up for five minutes without them. no cobain there to argue for alternative to mp worldview, what's left ?
22:56 mircea_popescu shockingly similar to an autoimmune disease, all this.
22:56 mircea_popescu autoimmune encephalitis ; it actually is a thing.
22:59 mod6 trinque: http://www.mod6.net/cuntoo-blog-1/genesis.vpatch
22:59 trinque no great shock that hating oneself so can't stand on its own forever
22:59 trinque thx mod6
23:00 mod6 yup np.
23:01 mod6 ok so next marching orders are to not do the USB Stick, and `lsmod -v` compare; but instead, will take a few days to look into initramfs, and then try to build another?
23:02 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-14#1896276 << notably ye olde trb-on-pogo asciilifeform recipe ran off initramfs
23:02 a111 Logged on 2019-02-14 03:41 trinque: ftr there are loads of interesting uses for initramfsen; we will have tooling to make them, but it has to come absent the sin of the load-all-modules thing and "lemme go automatically mount whatever root I can find" and miles else
23:03 trinque aha!
23:03 asciilifeform but it dun have much use case on pc, unless yer building dick^H^Hskless box for special purpose ( e.g. router )
23:05 trinque mod6: the curious thing is that you have full paths in just *part* of your genesis.vpatch, in the same exact way diana_coman did
23:06 trinque I suspect I have a different vdiff than both of you
23:06 mod6 I'm 98% sure that I got my vdiff out of diana_coman's starter_v.zip, lemme double check.
23:07 asciilifeform hm waitasec mod6 , didja ever post yer kernel config ?
23:08 asciilifeform betcha it's fulla 'M'
23:08 trinque yep, whereas I pressed mine to bvt's patch http://btcbase.org/patches/vtools_tempfile_standalone_notmp
23:08 mircea_popescu well at least this discussion's narrowing down the paths issue
23:08 mod6 http://p.bvulpes.com/pastes/zHUbI/?raw=true << vdiff info, built with the gnat '16 blob, and starter_v.zip
23:09 trinque mod6: a/profiles/home/mod6/cuntoo/cuntoo/build/usr/portage/profiles/releases/17.0/package.use.mask << this for example is not a valid path for anything
23:09 mod6 trinque: hmm, ok.
23:09 mod6 asciilifeform: yeah, one sec.
23:09 trinque it looks like both the symlink and the path symlinked commingled
23:09 trinque phf: ^ this familiar at all?
23:10 mod6 http://www.mod6.net/cuntoo-blog-1/trb-test1-kernel-config << asciilifeform my trb-test1 kernel config
23:10 asciilifeform it's got m!! mod6
23:10 asciilifeform http://btcbase.org/log/2019-02-09#1894555 << seealso
23:10 a111 Logged on 2019-02-09 19:58 asciilifeform: ( change all yer 'M' to a 'Y' .. )
23:11 * trinque cheats and just boots a moduletronic kernel, then "make localyesconfig" and rebuilds
23:11 asciilifeform rather than fiddling with initramfs fulla modulism, wainot do what asciilifeform does on piz boxen and bake it all =y
23:11 mod6 oh crap, maybe overlooked that asciilifeform. I can change and retry if that's the best plan.
23:12 asciilifeform then dun need modulism at all
23:13 trinque lots of decent tools in the kernel makefile; worth building kernels directly (rather than via "genkernel") to get acquainted with them
23:18 mod6 Ok, so do `sed -i 's/=m/=y/g' trb-test1`, then rebuild and try again?
23:23 mod6 Alright, that's what I'll do.
23:26 mod6 Ok, no more '=m', now zeroing drive.
23:26 mod6 Once complete, will re-inflate. Will report back more tomorrow. Thanks for help!
