dramforever | do we just ignore that fact | 19:56:12 |
ElvishJerricco | what do you mean? | 19:56:35 |
ElvishJerricco | I think that fixes the bug? | 19:56:38 |
ElvishJerricco | it's just not in 258 | 19:56:44 |
ElvishJerricco | it's in 258.1 | 19:56:49 |
dramforever | yeah but that rebuilds systemd right | 19:56:49 |
ElvishJerricco | right, we can't do the patch this cycle | 19:56:59 |
ElvishJerricco | so we'll do a workaround | 19:57:04 |
dramforever | so if we merge staging-next we ship this bug to users | 19:57:11 |
dramforever | and given the links this breaks real use cases kinda bad | 19:57:22 |
dramforever | * and given the links in the pr thread this breaks real use cases kinda bad | 19:57:32 |
ElvishJerricco | yea, I just don't think we can actually fix it, right? | 19:57:58 |
ElvishJerricco | like we can fix the test by doing something dumb, but I don't think we can actually fix the bug without a systemd patch | 20:00:28 |
dramforever | can we add a udev rule to fix this | 20:01:38 |
ElvishJerricco | no because these aren't devices in /sys, right? | 20:01:54 |
dramforever | oh, right, because static_node rules are basically magic | 20:02:43 |
ElvishJerricco | ok yea, confirmed, the PR that's in 258.1 fixes it | 20:12:05 |
ElvishJerricco | dramforever: do you agree that there's not a reasonable way to fix the underlying bug, other than to just update to 258.1? If so I'm just going to change the test to check a non-static dev node, like /dev/dri/card0, with a note to change it back after 258.1 | 20:13:07 |
dramforever | when do we expect 258.1 to land? it's the next staging-next right? | 20:29:19 |
dramforever | on the release schedule | 20:29:28 |
dramforever | well basically, what is this line? 2025-11-01 master (Day before ZHF) Merge staging-next into master, prepare for ZHF. Begin first staging-next cycle | 20:31:10 |
dramforever | is it the staging-next we're doing now? | 20:31:18 |
dramforever | or the next one? | 20:32:19 |
ElvishJerricco | yea | 20:34:39 |
ElvishJerricco | we can't get 258.1 in this cycle | 20:34:46 |
ElvishJerricco | so I'm going to open a PR to update to 258.1 on staging, probably today | 20:35:06 |
dramforever | i guess we'll just ship this regression for a few weeks | 20:38:05 |
ElvishJerricco | yea, kind of a bummer, but I don't really see anything we can do about it | 20:38:32 |
ElvishJerricco | https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/453603 | 20:38:39 |
dramforever | if nobody beats me to it i'll come back after ~10h to test aarch64-linux | 20:42:41 |
