[16:09] <zul> hi smb
[16:09] <smb> Hi there
[16:10] <zul> anything to report?
[16:10] <smb> So not much. A bit of ec2 testing fallout, some xfs regression that was reported and some nasty Lucid behavior in net namespace.
[16:11] <smb> bug 720095
[16:11] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 720095 in linux (Ubuntu) "vsftpd causes a vmalloc space leak in Lucid" [Medium,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/720095
[16:11] <zul> oh thats fun
[16:11] <smb> bug 725089
[16:11] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 725089 in linux (Ubuntu) "SECCOMP causes kernel panic on EC2 AMD64 image" [High,Confirmed] https://launchpad.net/bugs/725089
[16:11] <smb> bug 692848
[16:11] <ubottu> Launchpad bug 692848 in linux (Ubuntu Karmic) "Regression between 2.6.32-27 and 2.6.32-26 xfsdump SGI_FS_BULKSTAT errno = 22" [Medium,In progress] https://launchpad.net/bugs/692848
[16:12] <zul> people shouldnt use ftp anyways ;)
[16:12] <zul> any questions?
[16:12] <smb> The seccomp panic "luckily" is no regression, just a race that sometimes happens
[16:12] <smb> ..
[16:12] <hallyn> smb: bug id for net ns lucid ?
[16:12] <smb> hallyn, Thats the vsftp bug
[16:13] <hallyn> ah
[16:13] <smb> Basically the problem is that the cleanup for clones of the net namespace hang around for a whole
[16:13] <smb> Upstream changed a lot between Lucid and Maverick to batch things
[16:14] <smb> Seems a bit much for backporting, so I try to find some smaller solution
[16:14] <smb> (not with much luck yet)
[16:14] <smb> ..
[16:14] <zul> thanks
[16:14] <hallyn> impressive root-cause finding ;)

[16:21] <zul> this would make testing images on openstack much more easier
[16:21] <hallyn> woot

[16:22] <Daviey> How will mainly bed supporting generic.lxc?
