09:02:32wodzukleinek: could you share it? I would like to compare it to what I have
09:02:34God_Eaterhas there been any movement on Torne's plan?
09:02:49ukleinekwodz: I can provide you blocks 4 to 23, havn't decrypted them yet
09:03:02ukleinekwodz: one sed

09:03:06JdGordonGod_Eater: give him a few min to breath aye? :)
09:03:28God_EaterJdGordon: as I understand it, the onus isn't on him currently ;)
09:03:41God_Eaterhe's written the plan, he needs our swedish overlords input now
09:03:49JdGordonthats how i understand it also :)
09:03:58wodz4 contains s1 so this is very interesting. Others are not so unless you merge them into final binary (as this is rather boring process :-))
09:04:29God_Eateralthough I think I can probably help with step 1 too

09:06:31wodzI think the most crucial part now is to prepare documentation
09:07:05wodzukleinek: this are raw dumps or decrypted?
09:07:47wodzSo basicaly we need to start work on 4) from Torne's plan.
09:08:04ukleinekwodz: raw
09:08:13JdGordonmy guess is alot of 3) can be done before the move also
09:08:17wodzok
09:08:21JdGordonnot commited, but done
09:08:41God_EaterJdGordon: well volunteered that man
09:08:43God_Eaterget to work

09:09:47[Saint]*what* themeing work?
09:10:02[Saint]themeing? theming?
09:10:07ZagorI think most of 3) lands on me

09:10:07[Saint]bah...
09:10:11God_Eatersee Torne's email to the dev list

09:10:46JdGordonjust changing commands?

09:13:23Zagorfor instance, the build system is designed around a number revision number...
09:13:31Zagor*numeric
09:13:55God_Eateris there anything we can do with git metadata to make that a bit less painful?
09:14:28[Saint]there's not exactly a heck of a lot of work to do "themeing" gerrit...what, like 2 shades of blue (the website's blue right?) and throw a logo up. done ;)
09:14:42*[Saint] squints.
09:14:43Zagornah, I'll just tweak it to support a proper string instead. it doesn't actually parse the value much.
09:14:48[Saint]Yeah...looks blue to me.
09:15:03wodzukleinek: s1 from your player differs from any s1's I have collected so far. I'll need to look in dissasm to see what's the difference
09:16:00God_EaterZagor: "is the revision reference different from the previous one? If yes, rebuild" ?
09:16:23Zagornot even that, it builds whatever you send it

09:34:31B4gderI'm not doing much rockbox dev these days personally so I won't speak up about this much, but requiring review before push seems like a new layer of bureaucracy we're not used to having and I don't see the need for it
09:35:14B4gderfrom existing experienced committers I mean
09:35:37[Saint]It stops controversial or "ninja" commits.
09:35:49B4gderyes, it also stops all other quick commits
09:36:36wodzI expressed my feeling in mail, while this may be ok for general rb work what will be the added value when working on new port?
09:36:47[Saint]A small price to pay to ensure a developer can't just do "Ah fuck it, I want this so its going in even though I know its controversial"
09:36:55[Saint]of course...then that could just be reverted.
09:36:56B4gderI agree with you wodz, but I wouldn't want it as a rule for "normal" either
09:37:26*Llorean thinks it's surprising that one of the people who complains most about things being "slow" wants to add that layer.
09:37:36wodzB4gder: me too, but I can see some benefits at least
09:37:38B4gderit'll just make committers more annoyed when nobody has reviewed it in a while and the queue piles up
09:37:59B4gderthen all of a sudden we have a review-queue problem
09:38:30LloreanI think ninja commits aren't typically a problem.
09:38:33B4gderimho, it's a fix for a problem we don't have
09:39:00LloreanThere have been occasions where there's been a reversion. And one or two threats of "if you don't do it my way, I'll make other changes" and such. But over all, most people knowing that their commit could be reverted will try to talk it through first.
09:39:02[Saint]Llorean: Only becasue the pre-discussion has created a hugle flamewar first ;)
09:39:03wodzanyway thats for revert is
09:39:09[Saint]if they stopped discussing...
09:39:25God_Eaterit's a pointless thing to enforce in my opinion
09:39:44God_Eaterif you have a patch you think *needs* review, then submit it to the gerrit review queue yourself
09:39:51God_Eateryou don't *have* to commit directly to master
09:39:59B4gderexactly
09:40:07LloreanI don't think there's any gain from *forcing* review.
09:40:11God_Eaterbut forcing review of all commits is stupid
09:41:09LloreanThough if it were finer grained, such as "forcing review to all files outside this folder" for something like brand new committers who are brought in to work on, say, a new port, that's different. That could be discussed, I think.
09:41:15LloreanI still think, though, that that would show a lack of trust.
09:41:20wodzagreed
09:42:01LloreanYou give someone commit access if you trust them. If you stop trusting them to use commit access responsibly, you take it away. If they're irresponsible, they should just submit patches. That *is* the forced review process.
09:42:17[Saint]Yes, even for regular committers. Its still possible they may fuck something up that someone else will notice easily.
09:42:37[Saint]Perhaps we wouldn't have bootloaders in SVN that brick devices if this happened earlier.
09:42:46[Saint]bootloader(s)?
09:43:40God_Eater[Saint]: I'm completely against *enforced* review for people who are already trusted committers.
09:43:49God_Eaterthose people get commit access for a reason
09:43:59[Saint]I don't see the review as a bad thing, as I think that there _should_ be enough people around for the review process to take a trivial time.
09:44:09*Llorean wasn't aware we had bootloaders that brick devices.
09:44:09God_EaterI trust them to know *if* they think something they're commiting needs review or not
09:44:24wodzI see only one true potential benefit. One can imagine that uploaded patches in gerrit gets automatically applied in branch and proofed to compile on all targets.
09:44:33God_EaterLlorean: H300 bootloader has been unusable for about 2 years now.
09:44:42[Saint]Llorean: there certainly are. "bootloader" I think, though.
09:44:45God_Eater(if you build from source that is)
09:44:53God_Eaterthe ones we have for download are fine of course
09:45:02LloreanGod_Eater: Yeah, if you build from source. But we have a tagged good revision.
09:45:11*God_Eater just said that ;)
09:45:42LloreanWouldn't it be somewhat crazy to reflash an H300 for every change that *might* affect the bootloader? We've got, what, one or two people who can do that safely?
09:45:43God_Eater[Saint]: the point there though is just reviewing the patch that caused that wouldn't tell you it was okay to flash
09:45:53[Saint]My point was...*perhaps* (not definitely) that might not be the case if a review system was in place.
09:45:53God_EaterLlorean: only one I believe
09:45:59God_Eaterand he's still too busy to really get involved.
09:46:06[Saint]that must have been a "trusted" committer that broke this, no?
09:46:08God_Eater[Saint]: there *is* a review system in place
09:46:24God_Eaterit's just not enforced, and I don't want it enforced.
09:46:56Llorean[Saint]: I seriously doubt anyone would've caught it in advance without flashing every revision along the way, given how much time was spent on it and past devcons without being able to fix it.
09:47:33God_Eater[Saint]: it was completely impossible to tell it was going to brick a device. And only a trusted committer found out it did.
09:47:52God_Eaterand we *still* don't know which revision broke it
09:48:10wodzthe problem with h300 bootloader seems to be that binary size increase caused to cross some magic border. This something you cannot catch by patch review
09:48:19God_Eaterexactly
09:48:53wodzgevaerts: got my TBLCF BDM pod so start bugging him :-)
09:49:51gevaertswodz: LinusN has my irivers now to make them BDM-ready, so I have an excuse :)
09:49:53[Saint]Well, I'm by no means saying I don't understand why its contentious. I do. Nothing changes for me, anything I want committed needs to be reviewed at this point, and that won't change for me...so, yeah, I can see why its upsetting.
09:50:00LloreanAll a review phase would do would be to share the blame when some bad commit came through
09:50:19LloreanMaking people timid to commit things outside their area of expertise, making it *harder* for people working on less popular bits.
09:50:49God_Eaterthe number of "bad commits" we've had over the project lifecycle..... why, I can't think of more than about 3.
09:50:58God_Eaterthis would be a complete waste of time imo
09:51:16LloreanIt doesn't make accidental bad commits much less likely. They're very, very rare as it is, and wouldn't be reduced without on-device testing and that would slow things down dramatically.
09:51:33LloreanIt does make intentional bad/contentious commits less likely. Those aren't going to happen anyway with trusted people.
09:51:34wodzgevaerts: oh, come on soldering to sockets is not an excuse
09:51:40[Saint]I think the point is that it gives people the opportunity to say "hey, there's a better way to do this", is it not?
09:51:44*God_Eater proposes we forget JdGordon's silli suggestion and just move on.
09:51:46LloreanIt does make *good* commits more of a headache though.
09:52:12God_Eater[Saint]: no it doesn't - it would encourage exactly the opposite.
09:52:21God_EaterPeople would get blase about the review system
09:52:41[Saint]If they reject it from the beginning...yeah, I guess.
09:52:45God_Eateror we'd end up in an even WORSE situation of patch rot than we're in now with flyspray.
09:52:47wodzI guess the proposition whas cause because Jd often asks for test/review and nobody cares really.
09:53:11LloreanHe said on the thread that review wouldn't even be necessary.
09:53:22LloreanWhich basically makes it a blame-sharing system rather than a review system.
09:53:23God_Eaterwhich makes the whole thing pointless
09:53:52Zagorwodz: that is an issue we should try to address, but not by enforcing review
09:54:51God_EaterI find it hysterical that it's Jd that asks for this, since even when he *gets* his review, if the result isn't favourable to what he wants to achieve, he loses his rag
09:55:17wodzZagor: agreed - the only solution I see is to force Saint to 'speak' C fluently
09:55:24LloreanGod_Eater: I was figuring out how to diplomatically say "Does he really think forcing someone to commit his stuff for him is going to get *more* of his stuff in?"
09:55:27gevaertswodz: maybe it isn't, but right now that doesn't really matter since the stuff isn't at my place

09:56:18[Saint]wodz: ;)
09:57:41[Saint]WHen he asks me for review, its never about the code (maybe if tags are sane, or could be better), but rather about "Can I manage to break his new toy with unexpected syntax"
09:59:38God_Eater[Saint]: of course that's about the code
10:00
10:00:01God_Eaterit might not be asking you to check his pointer arithmetic personally, but you're still reviewing the functionality he's attempting to implement.

10:11:33JdGordLlorean you fucking moron, requiring a shipit would make controversial changes harder to get in
10:11:44 Quit JdGord (Client Quit)
10:13:11LloreanEloquent and civil as always, that man.
10:14:36LloreanFor the record, I've explicitly said that while a change may be controversial, it's still up to the committer to make the decision whether or not to override objections and commit. I've told him directly that he should feel free to ignore my objections if he's sure they're invalid on multiple occasions.
10:15:17LloreanThat's why I'm in favor of not having the forced review. Whether or not I agree with all commits, I think that as long as someone has commit access, they have a right to the final decision on their work's commit.
10:15:20B4gderI really don't think that attitude and language is acceptable
10:15:22God_EaterJdGordon is getting too offensive recently. Seriously needs to wind his neck in.
10:16:14wodzanyway speculating that "Does he really think forcing someone to commit his stuff for him is going to get *more* of his stuff in?" is a bit unfair in the context of this discussion
10:16:27n1swhile i'm not much in favour of forced reviews it might be interesting to test them and see what happens
10:16:59[Saint]wodz: I *think* that was where the objection came from.
10:17:09[Saint]I would have probably taken that rather badly also.
10:17:22[Saint](regardless of its intent)
10:18:07LloreanIt's a mathematical certainty though. If you add in another step at which something can be rejected, more stuff will be rejected. You certainly can't *increase* the commit rate by adding a step that can only reduce it.
10:18:40wodzLlorean: so why the hell you said something like quoted above?
10:18:51[Saint]Did anyone suggest it would be increased?
10:18:53LloreanGiven that his view on Rockbox development is that A) It's too slow, and B) things keep getting in his way to including stuff, adding *another* thing isn't very wise from that perspective.
10:19:45Llorean[Saint]: No. My point was simply that he's going contrary to his normal perspective on 'problems with Rockbox development'
10:19:53LloreanI really don't see how saying "that's not his normal tune on the issue" is offensive at all.
10:20:08[Saint]...which is why it was really big of him to be the one to suggest such a thing.
10:20:09wodzLlorean: the point is that your statement sounds a bit offensive - regardless of how he behave
10:21:41wodzIt's the matter of wording probably
10:22:04Llorean[Saint]: Yes, and when I went contrary to my perceived view, and suggested in the email that it's bad, he responded by calling me a moron. And yet I'm getting lectured?
10:22:28[Saint]You are?
10:22:39LloreanYou're both complaining about what I said far more than you've complained about what he said.
10:22:42God_Eateryes, by you and wodz
10:22:43LloreanIt certainly feels like a lecture.
10:23:26[Saint]I was simply stating how it could be percieved, as I'm pretty sure wodz is also. I don't claim to agree or disagree.
10:23:30God_Eaterlooks like one too from where I'm standing
10:24:09God_EaterI don't really care how it could be perceived, Llorean didn't use offensive language.
10:24:21God_EaterJdGordon did. Unacceptable.
10:24:25wodzJd reaction is unacceptable, period. That doesn't mean that I percive Your statement (Llorean) as polite
10:24:32[Saint]I was just saying "this is why I think X happened", I don't think X was necessarily the right way to react.
10:25:02 Quit stripwax (Quit: http://miranda-im.org)
10:25:26Lloreanwodz: Given JdGordon's nearly-constantly antagonistic behaviour toward me these days, I think most people would consider a light chuckle in his direction from me in response to someone else's similar comment to him "not particularly bad"
10:26:57wodzthis discussion is pointless - you wan't take into consideration that your statement sounds unfair.
10:27:15wodzregarding Jd reaction I expressed my opinion.
10:27:36God_Eaterwodz: I'm pretty sure Llorean did just take that into consideration.
10:27:59LloreanI admit my statement wasn't wholly respectful.
10:28:08LloreanIt doesn't change the fact that I really think it wasn't particularly bad.
10:28:40wodzthats the point where we have different view, lets left this behind now
10:28:57[Saint]We've probably all blown up when taking something as it wasn't intended. Some just have smaller fuses I guess.
10:29:02[Saint]I know mine is short.
10:29:52God_EaterI think the pair of you are off your heads. JdGordon has *repeatedly* sworn at, and insulted Llorean over the past few weeks, and you're giving Llorean a hard time over a light jab back in his direction?

10:31:00[Saint]Fwiw, I didn't mean to sound as I was lecturing Llorean at all. Nor do I personally feel as though I was. I was merely trying to offer an explanation as to why that particular reaction may have happened.

10:36:42wodzGod_Eater: Didn't I expressed my view of Jd reaction explicitly? I'll express it once more - its unacceptable. Jd proposed something, which we all agreed, will make controversial changes *harder* to get in. Now presenting this proposition as a sneaky way to pushing controversial changes is unfair at best.
10:37:31LloreanI don't think I suggested that at all.
10:38:01God_Eaterno you didn't
10:38:05God_Eaterit's far from sneaky
10:38:37LloreanI don't think I suggested there was an sneaking either. What I meant to suggest is "he typically claims it's a problem that things are slow to get in, but now he's advocating a process explicitly designed to slow this down. I find this situation humorous."
10:38:39kugelFWIW, I'm also very much against forced review
10:39:08kugelit'll serve nothing, but make review pointless by making it even more annoying than it's now
10:39:15God_Eaterand that's exactly how I interpreted it Llorean
10:39:41LloreanGod_Eater: Good to know.
10:40:07LloreanI definitely did not mean to suggest or imply *any* wrongdoing on his part in regard to that statement.
10:40:17kugelI'm also surprised about JdGordon's proposal. Not surprised about the proposal itself (I think many of us had a mind-experiment wit that) but that he made it
10:40:17God_EaterI don't see how wodz interprets it differently to be honest.
10:40:26LloreanIf I want to accuse someone of wrongdoing, I'll do it explicitly and seriously. Not with a joke.
10:41:32kugeland tbh I think his intent is to share responsibility for controversial things
10:41:39wodzMy view is probably caused by the fact that english is not my native language. In polish such construction sounds cynically and offensive.
10:41:47kugel(blame-share as someone called it earler)
10:42:37kugelso JdGordon could've pointed at someone else if his main menu change got in
10:42:39God_Eaterkugel: I don't really see how *enforcing* reviews of every commit helps that. He can *still* achieve blame share for controversial commits by just submitting his work to the review system on purpose.
10:42:57God_Eatermaking every commit require review is just insanity
10:43:04Lloreankugel: That would also be me, though I was talking about that in general too. I was thinking more along the lines of "I don't want to be the person who reviews Bootloader code. Only Bob knows it, but he wrote the patch so he can't do it."
10:43:32kugelenforcing makes people to just click it away like ads, voluntary review doesn't (I hope)
10:43:41God_Eaterkugel: my view precisely
10:43:54LloreanI was thinking of it more as "because the button pusher has to share the blame, it may make some people tentative to review certain things" more than "so the committer can push the blame off on others"
10:44:04LloreanVoluntary review is good, I think. Very good.
10:44:09 Join dfkt [0] (dfkt@unaffiliated/dfkt)
10:44:10God_Eaterwe'll either end up with people just clicking "yes this is fine" without really thinking about it, or we'll end up with, as gevaerts said, 3 commits a month.
10:44:16B4gderVoluntary review is very good
10:44:25kugelso it would possibly create a way to sneak in controversial changes with the feature of being able to point at someone
10:44:39B4gderor just queue them up
10:45:59kugelotoh I can also believe that JdGordon is worried thatvolunteer review doesn't change the status quo (people simply don't do review) much
10:46:20kugelbut I agree with [Saint], JdGordon isnt usually asking for review but for testing
10:46:29God_Eaterkugel: that may be true too - but introducing this change doesn't help that.
10:46:31God_Eaterit makes it worse.
10:46:51LloreanI doubt voluntary review would change things much, but it does create the opportunity where if you feel nervous about your code for any reason (touching areas you don't normally, controversy, whatever) you can put it in a place where responsibility may be more readily shared.
10:46:55***Saving seen data "./dancer.seen"
10:46:55God_Eaterthis is not a problem we can fix with a technical solution
10:47:25kugelright
10:53:25kugelbtw, I also find the constant insults of JdGordon unacceptable (not only recently, he did that always), and we should do something about it

13:14:05LloreanI don't see it as a way for someone committing to force someone to share the blame. I see it as a situation where people might not want the responsibility of reviewing someone else's work because if they don't catch something, they get caught up in it.

13:20:30Tornethere is literally zero point in requiring everyone to upload stuff for review if you are also going to say it's okay for them to approve their own stuff
13:20:36LloreanActual review isn't what's going to happen here, in a lot of cases.
13:20:58Tornewhy don't we, yaknow, switch to new tools first
13:21:04Torneand then *see if people actually do reviews*
13:21:07Torneand then discuss it then
13:21:09n1si still think people have too much preconcieved oppinions about what will happen
13:21:17Tornen1s: exactly
13:21:31*JdGordon just wanted to have the talk
13:21:43LloreanJdGordon: And we did have the talk, *mostly* fairly civilly.
13:21:45JdGordonpeer review drives me freeking bonkers at work, but it is a good thing
13:21:47Tornethere is no point having it now, seriously
13:21:56JdGordonso when?
13:22:11JdGordononce gerrit is in place and everyone is already used to pushing directly
13:22:13JdGordon?
13:22:17LloreanAfter people are acclimatized to the new tools, and understand the workflow better and how a review step would fit into it.
13:22:19Torneyou say "used to pushing directly"
13:22:21Tornelike that's a new thing
13:22:23*[Saint] just sees the same people shooting it down at a later point.
13:22:26God_Eaterwe already *are* used to pushing directly
13:22:26TorneThis is also called "committing"
13:22:33Tornethis is what people do now
13:22:47JdGordononly because the tools dont cater for it
13:23:07Torneyou are suggesting that switching to git and allowing commits directly is a regression
13:23:12God_Eaterrubbish - we could have forced people to commit to a branch in svn, and only move to trunk when it's approved.
13:23:21JdGordondoesnt gerrit let you accept a commit directly from the web interface?
13:23:23gevaertsJdGordon: if we keep adding more things to discuss before we can switch, we won't switch
13:23:59JdGordonall this would be is literally saying "guys, i've pushed X which is pretty small, has someone got a min to ok it?"
13:24:31Tornewhich is a radical departure from our current development culture
13:24:37Tornepossibly a good one, possibly not
13:24:43Tornebut *more change at once* is rarely a good thing
13:24:50JdGordongit is a radical departure already
13:24:57Torneno it isn't.
13:25:03 Quit user890104 (Ping timeout: 250 seconds)
13:25:28Tornegit gives you the option of inventing ways of working that are radically different
13:25:34Tornebut most people don't and won't
13:25:49Tornefor most people i imagine a small shell script that pretended to be svn would be sufficient :)
13:25:54JdGordonok, so we continue having code which never gets a second look
13:26:10LloreanWhich has worked for us pretty well for many years.
13:26:12JdGordonif everyone really is ok with that then fine
13:26:17Torneyou keep saying this like "continuing to do as we are" is some terrible outcome
13:26:31JdGordonwell, it is far from ideal
13:26:34 Join user890104 [0] (~Venci@6bez10.info)
13:26:34LloreanAnd then, once everyone's settled in, we bring up the idea again, and talk about the benefits of a review process in a reasoned manner, without yelling at people who bring up ideas we disagree with.
13:26:59TorneJdGordon: by trying to force this discussion now you are letting the ideal impede *any progress at all*
13:27:21JdGordonno im not
13:27:37JdGordonyour list has it as step 4 no?
13:28:01Torneyes, and time allowing i was hoping to get there by next week or so :)
13:28:23JdGordonputting policies into affect at some random pooint later is going to go over far more smootly isnt it?
13:28:37Tornewhat?
13:28:43gevaertsIt's going to work better than trying to do it now, yes
13:28:49Zagoriterative change is usually less painful than revolutionary, yes
13:28:58gevaertsBecause trying to do it now means staying with svn for another two years
13:29:00Torneyes, it will be much easier to discuss whether we want to require code review once lots of peopl ehave had a chance to try doing it
13:29:29LloreanYeah, it'd help a lot if people used the voluntary review process some, and showed in the real-world how easily it is to get things through it consistently
13:29:36TorneRight.
13:29:45TorneThat would be great: if you want to advocate that, do it
13:29:52TorneI intend to try and get my changes reviewed
13:30:04TorneI intend to review other people's changes if they are related at all to code i'm familiar with
13:30:12pamauryIf I understand correctly, you want to force discussion for *every* commit ? I can't see how this is compatible with the vast dispersion of knowledge. There are parts of the code that only afew people can really review and I would expect such people to do it anyway after the commit, that's the implicit part of being a contributor in some area of the code. Code review should be a option for the commiter
13:30:15God_EaterI will too - when, on the rare occasions I make them, I feel they warrant it
13:30:28God_Eaterthe one line change I made yesterday to "installToolchain.sh" didn't warrant it.
13:30:28JdGordonpamaury: NO! not discussion
13:30:31Lloreanpamaury: Not discussion. Just approval. By any one person other than the original committer.
13:30:43JdGordon*review*, it just needs one person to go over the code and look for SNAFU's
13:31:08JdGordonGod_Eater: so what would we have lost if it took an extra 3 min for someone else to ok it first?
13:31:18JdGordonsmall commits are jsut as likely to be wrong as big ones
13:31:33pamauryIt doesn't change my point
13:31:33God_Eater"Why? Just come in irc and ask someone to press the button. They don't need to do a full blown revue" <−− your words
13:31:35Torneit only takes an extra three minutes if people are around to do it
13:31:45JdGordonpeople are always around
13:31:52*JdGordon is in here alone more than anyone else
13:31:54pamauryno
13:31:56Tornethe right people are frequently not around
13:32:19God_Eaterhaving just "someone" press the button is a waste of time
13:32:24Tornethe right people for many things is a very small set of people
13:32:24JdGordonagain, no... if you actually want "the right people" to review it then it isnt ready for commit
13:32:26pamaurymany people are around but not necessarily the one who know your part of the code
13:32:33JdGordonthis is a second set of eyes giving it a oce over
13:32:34JdGordononce*
13:32:45TorneI don't believe that is useful.
13:32:49God_Eatera second set of eyes who may not having a clue what it's doing!
13:32:55JdGordonpamaury: thats the point! you want a fewsh set of eyes to look for something obvious
13:33:00TorneI have done code reviews for a good eight years
13:33:10Torneusing a variety of systems, sets of rules, etc
13:33:22Torneand my experience has been that 100% of reviews done by random people are worthless
13:34:29TorneI have never, ever had a bug found in my code by someone who wasn't knowledgable about the code in question
13:34:29JdGordonok, that type of response is helpful
13:34:29Tornethe kind of mistake that can be spotted by just anyone iare the kind that can be spotted by basic building + testing
13:34:29*JdGordon is surprised more of the old timers didnt say that before
13:34:29Tornedo not commit code you haven't built and tested.
13:34:29DBUGEnqueued KICK Torne
13:34:29Tornethat solves that one :)
13:35:08JdGordonnext fight :) doesnt commitnig directly let people to merge commits instead of the single change commits? :)
13:35:11CtcpIgnored 1 channel CTCP requests in 0 seconds at the last flood
13:35:11*God_Eater is surprised JdGordon couldn't work it out on his own.
13:35:36JdGordonGod_Eater: and you've been doing software development professionally for how long?
13:35:47God_Eater15 years thanks
13:35:54JdGordonyet you didnt say that
13:35:54pamauryNo my point is that for some parts of the code, only 1 or 2 people can review your code and if you don't feel confident, you should ask them for review instead of letting random people do it. But since you are expected to build and test before commit, that greatly reduces the probably of doing something wrong.
13:36:00God_EaterJdGordon: I don't have to
13:36:42TorneJdGordon: allowing merges vs forcing flattening/rebasing is orthogonal
13:36:58*JdGordon was kidding there :)
13:36:59TorneJdGordon: gerrit knows the difference between merge commits and regular commits and they are independantly controllable regardless of destination
13:37:30Tornethat part is something i do intend to discuss soon because I've changed my mind about what the best way of doing things is, having had more experience using git
13:37:42JdGordonpamaury: my tihnking is that someone who has no clue about the code might see something which someone who's been staring at it for weeks had already glossed over
13:37:45Tornebut can we not bring that up now :)
13:37:50JdGordonits not completly unimaginable
13:38:01Zagorbut exceedingly unlikely
13:38:03JdGordonbut that does require an actual code read
13:38:03TorneJdGordon: it's not unimaginable, but it's fairly rare if you have a build and test system :)
13:38:15Torneand it takes more than three minutes, for any change that isn't a oneliner.
13:38:32B4gder... unless you want to find spelling mistakes in comments
13:38:36JdGordonok, and had you convinced me that way 2 hours ago we'd all be much happier
13:39:00pamauryAs for what I do (port, low level drivers), you can miss something important at every line so it's extremely unlikely that you notice something. But it might true for other parts of the code
13:39:27Tornepamaury: sure, there are areas that are reasonable for a wide pool of potential reviewers
13:39:52God_EaterJdGordon: and if you hadn't crashed into the channel with an obscenity thrown at Llorean, we'd all be much happier too.
13:41:23JdGordonyou'd already said the discussion was completly disregardlable before that
13:41:28Torneanyway, yes, i would personally like us to move toward a world where reviews are the norm, rather than the exception. I don't think making them mandatory right now is a helpful step toward that. Changing culture takes time and people have to be willing, and for them to be willing it has to be demonstrated that it's worthwhile
13:41:52JdGordonso some time next millenium considering how slow change happeens here :)
13:42:02Tornemaybe :)
13:42:11TorneMore reasonably: do the migration as i describe first
13:42:15Tornethen wait maybe six months?
13:42:23Torneassuming a reasonable number of people *do8 actually use the review system in that time
13:42:28Tornethen discuss it.
13:42:35God_EaterI can't imagine them not using it
13:42:35JdGordonyou know full well the discussion will then be "why change? i like it the way it is"
13:42:44TorneThen we've lost nothing
13:42:49God_Eaterit's a nicer workflow than putting stuff in flyspray which people do already - even if they *are* committers
13:43:05TorneJdGordon: and I don't intend to be content with that
13:43:09B4gderJdGordon: if people prefer one way, why is it bad to use that way?
13:43:16Torneat that time, I will do what I can to help convicne people
13:43:34Tornebut I have no desire to force people to change at all, especially not right now
13:43:48JdGordonB4gder: you asking in general? or this specifically?
13:44:17B4gderyou just said it was bad, and I find that a bit amusing
13:44:35God_Eaterdoing it the way one person wants in spite of what everyone else wants is called a dictatorship. And our dictator is Zagor. :D
13:44:51JdGordonall hail our swedish overlords!
13:45:01Zagoror was, at least. it was many years since I last forced a decision.
13:45:34JdGordonB4gder: because I'm still fresh out of uni where we are drilled in with peer programming ideas and cocde review, and im forced to use it at work, so obviously my brain thinks it is correct!
13:45:38God_EaterZagor: I don't remember you resigning though ;)
13:45:51ZagorI'm a sleeper dictator :-)
13:45:59Zagorready to pounce
13:46:03JdGordonbut in general, just because "this is the way its always been" is a worthless arguemnt
13:46:15B4gderthat I fully agree with
13:46:17God_Eaterthat wasn't the argument being proporsed though
13:46:17TorneJdGordon: the thing is, the only reason we are even looking at gerrit is because i wanted it. but i've tried really hard not to force the issue or impose my will on anyone here, and to instead convince people by demonstrating its merits
13:46:32TorneJdGordon: your argument for mandatory code review is largely by assertion, which is not great.
13:46:52JdGordonI'd hardly call it an argument
13:46:59Tornethe assertions are meaningful to people who have been in environments where mandatory code review was in place and successful
13:47:15Tornebut that's not everyone, and that doesn't automatically mean we have the right environment right now.
13:48:01Torne(also, there is more than one level of "mandatory" that exists..)
13:48:06*JdGordon stops arguing with people who clearly know more than him on the topic
13:48:13Torne(e.g. i made a commit to a project yesterday and I reviewed it myself :)
13:48:25LloreanI'm just not sure I see how we can have *mandatory* code review, and at the same time have it be useful. Either people won't touch code they don't feel comfortable reviewing, or don't have time to review, or they'll skim it and put it in, removing the usefulness of it.
13:48:32God_Eatercriteria for review fulfilled presumably Torne ? :)
13:48:34JdGordonI'm way more pissed off with how the argument unfolded
13:48:37 Join MethoS- [0] (~clemens@134.102.106.250)
13:48:40TorneGod_Eater: yup :)
13:48:57LloreanThere's a happy medium in there, where every patch gets looked at seriously by people who read it carefully looking for typos and bugs, but I have this feeling that's not going to be the lions share of reviews in the long term.
13:49:02TorneGod_Eater: gerrit doesn't currently have a rule engine (it's coming soon) and nobody has bothered to implemnent a non-rule-engine based check that you haven't reviewed your own change
13:49:15TorneGod_Eater: enforcement is thus by peer pressure :p
13:49:19God_Eaterhehe
13:49:52LloreanJdGordon: Most people stated reasonable fears about why mandatory reviews could be a bad thing. Then you called me names. Then we went back to reasonably discussing it on the mailing list instead of in here.
13:49:55TorneLlorean: It's possible
13:50:04TorneLlorean: I think we can get there over time
13:50:12LloreanTorne: And I think a term of voluntary review is a great way to test the waters.
13:50:17TorneIndeed
13:50:19God_Eaterditto
13:50:24TorneWhile we're doing that we can also look at other helpful tricks
13:50:30Tornelike having buildbots test changes before commit
13:50:48God_Eaterinfrastructure is fun!
13:50:57 Join rinaku [0] (johan@nibox.dgmil.net)
13:50:59Torneif you pile enough demonstrably useful functionality on a system then people will use it :p
13:51:27*Llorean wishes there were a way to complete all builds *then* perform the final commit.
13:51:32TorneLlorean: There is
13:51:44TorneIt's something of a bottleneck though
13:51:54TorneChromium uses a compromise
13:52:10Torne(when you hit commit, it runs a build against the *current* HEAD with your change then if that succeeds, commits it)
13:52:23TorneThis is not quite perfect because more commits might get applied to HEAD after your build starts
13:52:25LloreanSince I feel like, typically, we've seen more "commit, gotta sleep, by" broken builds than "oops, that damn typo screwed up the logic but it still compiles without errors" broken builds.
13:52:42TorneLlorean: Right, but you don't actually need a commit queue to do that
13:52:53Torne*most* of the time it's sufficient to test the change against *anY8 version of trunk
13:53:06Tornesince normally it's either broken or it's not, and subsequent changes to trunk don't affect that state
13:53:17Torneso yeah, trybots
13:53:31Tornewhich, on completion, give your review a +1/-1 according to the build results
13:53:34JdGordonadding a 3-30min lag for commits is fine but a 5 min lag to get a review is a waste of time?
13:53:38Torneor maybe +1/-2
13:53:57TorneJdGordon: i am suggesting that again this be a voluntary thing you can do.
13:54:20JdGordonbeing able to ask the build bots to run our branches would be sweet thouh
13:54:26JdGordonpre commit is a bit annoying
13:54:35TorneJdGordon: as noted already, doing a good review takes more than 5 minutes in many cases
13:54:48Torneand doing a build run is for us pretty fast because we have no tests :0
13:54:53Tornefor chromium it takes a while.
13:55:01Tornebut I still do it, even though it's also voluntary
13:55:08LloreanAnd we do a build run every commit *anyway* (except when they're stacked on top of each other too closely)
13:55:17*JdGordon would have rnu last nights commit through the buildsystem pre commit if he could have
13:55:30TorneJdGordon: anyway, this is an independant thing, at this point
13:55:38JdGordoneasier to just commit and fix than to get all the toolchains built and working and then decide which to build
13:55:44TorneIf we are using gerrit the easiest way to integrate trybot runs would be through gerrit reviews.
13:55:48*JdGordon just wats git already :)
13:56:08Tornesince there is a known, fixed way to get the contents of a gerrit change, from a single server
13:56:17Tornewhich makes it somewhat easier than pulling a git branch from whoknowswhere
13:56:18JdGordonok
13:56:27Torneanyway
13:56:30Tornei'm going for lunch. ;)
13:59:02God_EaterZagor: will this also fix the naughty network card thing? (re: maintenance)
13:59:11B4gderyes
13:59:16God_Eaterhoo-bloody-ray
13:59:19God_Eater:D
13:59:27B4gderout with the old, in with the new!
13:59:43God_Eaterno no - I don't want a new naughty network card
13:59:47God_EaterI just want plain rid of it :)
14:00
14:00:01B4gderbrand new problems coming up! =)
14:00:10God_Eaterhaha

14:02:13JdGordonsoooooo....... what's the correct procdure to load a bitmap file into a buflib handle?
14:10:38rinakuHello
14:12:17rinakuI have a Sansa Clip+ and I just installed Rockbox to be able to play AAC files (which I get that way: sometimes I happen to have a H264/AAC/MP4 video and I convert it vith VLC to AAC/MP4; I just keep the AAC track not to lose quality)
14:12:47rinakuas described in the FAQ, "Weird things happen", aka skipping, when I try to play those files
14:13:18rinakuI just wanted to know if there is something smarter to do than just convert all my .mp4 files to vorbis or mp3
14:15:47n1sTorne: what does gerrit do if two conflicting changes are pushed for review?
14:16:13JdGordonfirst one to merge wins?
14:16:16God_Eatern1s: I would imagine "sod all" until they're actually commited.
14:16:52n1sGod_Eater: but if one is approved and committed what happens to the other one?
14:17:08God_Eaternothing until you try and merge it I would think
14:17:10JdGordonit fails to merge
14:17:14God_Eaterat which point you'll see conflicts
14:17:30God_Eatern1s: why don't you try it and see?
14:17:37God_Eaterthat's what the sandbox is there for!
14:18:04n1sah, right, i'll try to do that
14:18:31God_EaterI didn't go begging for that server for it to just sit there and look pretty ;)

15:17:06JdGordonhas anyone tried putting volume on the quickscreen?
15:17:38Torneyes. it goes backwards from what you'd expect :)
15:18:02JdGordondoes it actually work though?
15:18:08JdGordoni.e the volume does indeed change?
15:18:42Tornelast time i tried, i thought so
15:18:47Tornesome time ago :)
15:19:59*JdGordon is looking into fs#12262 and is baffled
15:20:00fs-bluebothttp://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/12262 %T setting_inc and setting_set actions not updating volume properly (bugs, unconfirmed)
15:20:26JdGordonBAFFLED!
15:21:04JdGordon[Saint]: ping?
15:22:18[Saint]yo...
15:23:42JdGordonhave you tried using %T setting_inc/dec with volume?
15:23:43[Saint]Ah...
15:23:50*[Saint] sees what he should be looking at.
15:24:09JdGordonI have a one line fix which may work
15:25:00[Saint]I haven't tried that, no.
15:25:10[Saint]Oh...actually, I may have.
15:25:13[Saint]Gimme a min tho.
15:26:37JdGordonI'm 99.999% sure this fix is correct anyway
15:26:57JdGordonit looks like the callbacks for most settings were not called from the quickscreen
15:27:20JdGordonso adding that in should just fix this
15:27:32JdGordonI say the quickscreen here because it is the same code which %T runs
15:27:40[Saint]Hmmm...actually, why *would* you use setting_set/inc/dec for volume? I can't imagine setting to a specific volume too useful (unless its a "fake" mute, and isn't there volume up/down touch tags?
15:28:31[Saint]"Reason for closing: You're insane, use the right tags!" ;)
15:29:20JdGordonI vaguely remember you wanting to put a + and - volume button in
15:30:36 Join milk [0] (~milk@94-193-93-226.zone7.bethere.co.uk)
15:30:40[Saint]I did at one point.
15:30:50[Saint]but there's "volup" and "voldown"
15:30:53[Saint]I used those.
15:31:11JdGordonthe fix works anyway :)

15:31:37[Saint]So...I actually *don't* really think its a bug that this "doesn't work".
15:31:44[Saint]there's specific tags that do this.
15:31:55[Saint]and "setting_set" is practically useless for volume.

19:24:31[Saint]Not that I distrust preglow... not at all. I just want to know that InstallToolchain.sh didn't do something "very weird(TM)"
19:25:37bluebrotherhmm, not sure if I used that to install the toolchain or did it manually. It's been a while since I installed that.
19:25:49[Saint]If that is definitely the case, InstallToolchain needs to check what platform its on.
19:26:07[Saint]As Windows and Linux appear to both be using "platform-tools"
19:26:18bluebrotherit does have platform-tools
19:26:55bluebrothermy linux installation has more files in it, but that is likely to be caused by that installation being newer
19:27:10bluebrotherthe Mac is r10 while my Linux machine is r12
19:27:23preglowcheck r12
19:27:31preglowit's what the tool downloads
19:27:53preglowbetter yet, just run the tool
19:28:14[Saint](not a great idea if you installed manually...)
19:28:47bluebrothergimme a bit, haven't used the Mac for Android development for some time
19:28:49preglowdepends where he put the dirs
19:29:02preglowthe tool tries to stuff things in ~, but that's easily changed
19:29:24bluebrotherI've put that in a folder ~/nobackup since I want to exclude it from TimeMachine ;-)
19:29:39bluebrotherreminds me that I need to reconfigure TimeMachine since I've reinstalled ...
19:33:24[Saint]argh! I am *really* failing with my grep skills tonight.
19:34:00[Saint]"platform-tools" is the dir destination, but "platform-tool" is the required filter.
19:34:46preglownow why'd they do something like that
19:34:50bluebrotherok, script runs.
19:35:05[Saint]SDK's readme certainly didn't help me there, sontinually referring to "platform-tools"
19:35:11[Saint]*continually
19:35:34bluebrotherhmm, installToolchain.sh could create the install folder if it doesn't exist

19:37:27[Saint]Ah, good.
19:37:44bluebrotherthat platform-tools has been added just recently to the script IIRC
19:38:01[Saint]Yeah, silly me advising from memory.
19:38:03bluebrotherlet's try it on linux ...
19:38:18[Saint]bluebrother: No point.
19:38:55bluebrotherso it's just a wrong filter in the script and not related to OS X?
19:39:02[Saint]correct.
19:39:08bluebrothergood
19:39:19[Saint]I need better grep skills, and a better memory, apparently.
19:39:46bluebrotherbut calling the folder platform-tools and the filter platform-tool is a bit ... weird.

21:21:59CIA-14New commit by buschel (r30468): Submit FS #12258. Do not use '-ffunction-sections' and '-fdata-sections' when compiling. Fixes compiler warnings for mingw and cygwin simulatior ...
21:24:25CIA-14r30468 build result: All green
21:24:29*Buschel just recognizes the commit message is misleading...
21:24:50Buschelof course the cmopiler settings are only disabled for sdl-sim builds

21:58:17Zagorindeed
21:58:42bluebroth3rany debian user around that can look up how mingw's sdl-config is installed?
21:59:50*ukleinek uses Debian, what should I do?
22:00
22:00:14bluebroth3rhow does Debian install sdl-config for MinGW? As i586-mingw32msvc-sdl-config?
22:00:21bluebroth3r(or something like that)
22:00:44Zagoras far as I can see, Debian doesn't install mingw sdl
22:01:00ukleinekZagor: yeah, I think so, too
22:01:13bluebroth3rI'm looking at configure and it calls sdl-config without any cross compiler prefix. When building the w32 sim using mingw-cross-env it installs sdl-config as i686-pc-mingw32-sdl-config
22:01:18gevaertsLast time I used mingw on debian (a few years ago...) I compiled sdl myself
22:01:32bluebroth3rhmm, how does sdl-config work on Debian then? configure does call it
22:01:47Zagorsdl is available, but not mingw-sdl
22:02:52bluebroth3rso will cross compiling break if I add a cross prefix to sdl-config?
22:04:00Zagorhow do you mean?
22:04:05*bluebroth3r isn't sure if he gets findsdl() correctly
22:04:47bluebroth3rconfigure has findsdl() which looks after sdl-config. If I now make it search for ${CROSS}sdl-config it won't be able to find it in that case.
22:06:02bluebroth3rthat's what I'm doing: http://pastebin.com/tjmdHKJN
22:06:51bluebroth3rhmm, I've missed the non-crosscompiling case :o

22:58:23kugelI compiled it myself
22:58:25bluebroth3r(below its folder)
22:58:45bluebroth3rI guess I should check the mingw-cross-env Makefiles about that a bit then
22:58:48kugelmingw-cross-env?
22:59:17bluebroth3ra project that is a build environment for cross compiling for windows
22:59:28kugelnever heard of that
22:59:30bluebroth3ri.e. it builds all stuff you need for cross compiling

23:16:41rinakuMay I ask a (my) question again for people who weren't there 9h ago? I wanted to know, given that Rockbox (on my Sansa Clip+) won't read some AAC/MP4 files of mine, if there is something clever to do about it of if I have to convert all my files to Vorbis.
23:17:39CIA-14r30468 build result: 8 errors, 0 warnings (buschel committed)
23:17:39Zagorrinaku: are they drm-limited?
23:17:47rinakuZagor: no
23:17:57rinakuZagor: VLC reads them perfectly for example
23:18:34rinaku(*exept* if I give them an .aac extension, wich I find strange but I'm not sure this is related)
23:18:39rinakuexcept*
23:18:55rinakuwhich*
23:18:57rinakusorry
23:19:22bluebroth3rhmm, Fedora's mingw packages also don't provide a prefixed sdl-config. I guess we just need to try both :)
23:19:47wodzrinaku: any special tags like album art embedded or something?
23:20:23n1srinaku: what do you mean by "won't read"?
23:20:49rinakuwodz: only "title" and "editor" (vlc)
23:20:56rinakun1s: skips
23:20:57n1salso .aac files are usually raw aac streams and not the same as m4a/mp4
23:21:34n1srinaku: skips in the audio or does it skip the files entirely?

23:26:42 Quit balintx (Ping timeout: 260 seconds)
23:27:23LloreanOne problem we've seen is that, unless this has changed, MP4/AAC files that Rockbox can play need to be optimized for streaming. I'm not sure what tools are typically used to do this, but your conversion process may not take this into account.
23:28:19rinakuLlorean: optimized at wich level? codec or container?
23:29:03rinakuLlorean: if codec: wouldn't youtube videos be optimized for streaming?
