 @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | emily: btw can you think of a fancy jj command to find the commit where the systemd update commit I want them to test was merged into master? | 21:15:24 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | obviously the systemd update was on staging | 21:15:34 |
 emily | master here as a proxy for a channel bump? | 21:18:43 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | pretty much | 21:18:55 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I'm trying to find the masters before and after that round of staging | 21:19:05 |
| emily | roots(commit:: & description(glob:"staging-next *")) is kinda lame, but it works | 21:24:12 |
| emily | there's probably something nicer you can do with the topology | 21:24:24 |
| emily | if you could access the first-parents (planned feature) it would be easy, but it's a little bit mind-bending without that | 21:24:48 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | yea, might be impossible if you can't distinguish first-parent | 21:28:39 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | ah darn, the merge's master parent is only mildly cached | 21:34:35 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I don't suppose we keep an easily parsed list of commits the channel was bumped to, do we? | 21:35:25 |
| emily | sure. the Hydra eval list | 21:47:19 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | ended up using this :P https://releases.nixos.org/?prefix=nixos/unstable/ | 21:47:39 |

| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | new development on the issue: The 256.7 version of systemd-boot that originally introduced the 4GB boundary bug successfully boots a 24.11 generation but not a nixos-unstable generation | 23:39:00 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | with the same failure as the 257.2 systemd-boot | 23:39:26 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | so given that the breakage definitely happens between 256.6 and 256.7, just like the 4GB issue, it's certainly related, but probably a little different since it doesn't happen on a 24.11 generation | 23:40:34 |

I don't suppose we keep an easily parsed list of commits the channel was bumped to, do we? I'm planning on starting such a list again. I'm so tired of it not being easily available | 23:56:54 |

| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | K900: I guess I should ask you if anything changed since 24.11 in how the kernels look to systemd-boot that could screw it up? | 02:55:41 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | because the same systemd-boot is only broken for kernels from unstable, not from 24.11 | 02:56:17 |

K900: I guess I should ask you if anything changed since 24.11 in how the kernels look to systemd-boot that could screw it up? Don't think so? | 05:41:08 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | yea I didn't think so... I wondered about file size too but the kernel and initrd are both only barely larger in unstable | 05:41:36 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I mean certainly there's something different about these that causes the issue, as they are indeed the parameters that triggers the broken boot loader behavior | 05:42:13 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | just can't think of anything | 05:42:21 |
| @elvishjerricco:matrix.org | I don't know enough about how PEs work but it might be something as stupid as the virtual addresses used by the kernel sections? (Is that the right terminology for a kernel PE?) | 05:43:45 |
