No need for trolling. :P

I like this idea. Having a way to check what drivers were used on a
certain make/model will be helpful for me in the future.

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 2/2] cmake-utils.eclass: _ninjaopts_from_makeopts, fix plain '-j' and '-l'

[Michał Górny]

Fix the _ninjaopts_from_makeopts to handle no-parameter '-j' and '-l'
options correctly and convert them to appropriate parametrized ninja
options.

[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 1/2] cmake-utils.eclass: _ninjaopts_from_makeopts, fix handling of -k

[Michał Górny]

Fix _ninjaopts_from_makeopts to handle -k correctly. Make does not
support parameters to -k, while ninja requires one. Therefore, handle
only a single '-k' and convert it into '-k 0' (no limit of failing
tasks).

[gentoo-dev] cmake-utils.eclass: fixes to ninja MAKEOPTS conversion

[Michał Górny]

Hello,

Just a quick two patches against cmake-utils that fix MAKEOPTS->ninja
conversion. In particular:

1. -k never takes value in make, so do not account for that, and always
   convert '-k' to '-k 0',

2. -j and -l have optional values in make, so figure out if we're being
   passed a correct value and use '-j ' and '-l 0' otherwise.

Are there perhaps plans to remove this?

Before the reversed ChangeLogs, this option was useful,
but perhaps now removing it would really lower the traffic?

One would have to make a bunch of tests over 1-2 months, perhaps:

a) two with rsyncing every day
b) two with rsyncing 1/week, and perhaps even
c) two with rsyncing 1/month.

(where "two" means one with and onewithout --whole-file)
and add up the traffic.

I am not sure whether servers can be set up to implicitly assume
--whole-file to save possibly some resources needed to calculate
the checksums. This would give wrong results, of course.
In this case, it would be necessary for the tests to set up a
server with full support, locally. In the latter case, one could
also use historical webrsync data if they are available somewhere
which would mean that the tests could be done rather quickly...
