[Bug 424927] Re: [needs-packaging] include Brain fuck Scheduler

2009-10-15 Thread Susan Cragin
Will there be a version of bfs-bfq in the repository? If there is one now, I 
can't find it.
I tested the bfs scheduler. 
My impressions. 
VERY fast boot-up. 
VERY slow bringing up Dragon NaturallySpeaking running under wine. 
Good performance of DNS once it comes up. Right now I run linux-rt and Studio 
because DNS is very sensitive to latency. My impression was that DNS ran as 
well but not better. 
(I'm a one-trick pony.)

2009-10-15 Thread Darxus
Susan: Yes, I expect it to go into the universe archive of Lucid as soon
as the Lucid archives open, which will be soon after the Karmic release,
which happens on the 29th.  It's way too late in the Karmic release
cycle to include.  I think it is also likely to get into karmic-
backports, which would be your best option.  It is not currently in the
archives, only my ppa.

You can use Lucid as soon as the archives open, but it will be an early
Alpha testing version of the entire release at that point, and it's
important that you understand what that means (likely to break).  Lucid
will be released in April 2010.

There is also the option of running Karmic with the linux-bfs-bfq
packages pinned to Lucid: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/PinningHowto

You should try prepending the command you use to start dragon naturally
speaking with schedtool -I -e while using BFS.  This will give it
(basically) all the CPU it can use before it even considers other
processes.  This is generally recommended for all sound and UI apps
(pulseaudio, music players, video players, X, and your window manager
(including compiz)).  schedtool is in the schedtool package.

Referring to anything other than the Domain Name System as DNS is very
confusing, even immediately after mentioning Dragon NaturallySpeaking :)

Thank you for your feedback, I've passed it along to Con.

Breaking systems are my favorite kind. I'll be on Lucid the day after the repos 
open. 
If you do one for pae I may be able to test that, too.

Runs fine of my HP laptop Thurion 64bit running Karmic 64.  Trying on a
quad-core Intel to see if it helps with non-responsive IDEs while Java

I installed 2.6.31-12.41bfs1 (before the renaming into linux-bfs) on my 9.04 
installation, Thinkpad X31.
I've only been running it for a bit over a day and so far it has worked great, 
I havn't noticed a single problem.

I'll post back when I've been running it longer.

2009-10-10 Thread Darxus
The changes from the linux source package are only:

1) Renaming from linux to linux-bfs.
2) Disabling ABI and modules checks.
3) Renaming the source orig tarball (linux to linux-bfs).
4) Changing the linux to linux-bfs on the first line of debian*/changelog (both 
are necessary).
5) Applying http://ck.kolivas.org/patches/bfs/2.6.31-sched-bfs-303.patch

1 and 2 are in the attached patch.

Renaming was a pain, and it would be nice if it were a less manual task.
I think fixing this wouldn't be hard, since most of the relevant files
already have a variable defining the source package name, it's just
unnecessarily hard coded lots of places.

version.h is created as debian/build/linux/version.h.  The first time I
found it, it contained #define LINUX_VERSION_CODE (empty), which would
cause the first compile error I posted about.  But now I can't reproduce
it.

It looks like AUTOBUILD=1 in debian.master/rules.d/0-common-vars.mk will
actually disable the ABI and module checks that have been uncooperative.

I'm getting ABI errors.  How do I do an ABI bump?

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Kernel/Compile says to skip ABI, will
that work for building a package that might end up in the repositories?

linux-image-2.6.31-11-generic gives me an error with this patch, but not
without this patch.

But the error is in a file the patch doesn't touch:

kernel/power/snapshot.c:1338: error: expected expression before ')'
token

Any suggestions?

It looks like the error is due to include/linux/version.h not being
created, and this file is where LINUX_VERSION_CODE is defined.  It is
created when I manually run make defconfig prepare.

Any idea why it's not being created?
