hexa | thank you nixos-generate-config | 12:57:34 |
hacker1024 | No guarantee that it'll fix it but it can't hurt | 12:57:42 |
hacker1024 | They have long lists of errata | 12:57:52 |
hexa | yeah, worth a try | 12:58:00 |
hexa | can always roll back | 12:58:03 |
hexa | thx | 12:58:58 |
connor (he/him) | I keep forgetting I added myself as a maintainer to glibc until I get emails for reviews lmao | 19:09:59 |
connor (he/him) | SomeoneSerge (utc+3) GaƩtan Lepage thoughts on having backendStdenv automatically propagate autoAddDriverRunpath and autoPatchelfHook? I feel like forgetting to add the former is a footgun people keep firing, and the latter is a great check to make sure all your dependencies are either present or explicitly ignored. | 19:22:47 |
GaƩtan Lepage | I am not sure to be qualified to answer properly. From my point of view, these kind of automations indeed help and avoid sneaky mistakes. | 19:24:29 |
hexa | hacker1024: I think your recommendation was spot on | 21:27:27 |
hexa | at 22% I see the first [pt_main_thread] instances | 21:27:36 |
hexa | and they don't seem to crash with microcode updates applied | 21:27:50 |
hexa | wow, I hope that makes python-updates much smoother in the future | 21:28:06 |

True
autoAddDriverRunpath
Yes and no. Yes because that'd definitely make one-off and our own contributions easier. No because once we start propagating it we lose the knowledge of which packages actually need to be patched. It still seems to me that most packages we don't have to patch because they call cudart and cudart is patchelfed. Maybe yes because I'm unsure what happens with libcudart_static.
autoPatchelfHook
I'd be rather strongly opposed to this one. Autopatchelf is a huge hammer, coarse and imprecise. It can actually erase correct runpaths from an originally correct binary. Let's reserve it for non
Another important thing to consider is (here we go again) whether we want to keep both backendStdenv and the hook and which of these things should be propagating what
