for the fun of it I enabled KCSAN a on last kernel update and I am seeing some data-races in foot reported in dmesg - not sure if they are a problem/worth a bug (probably not): https://dpaste.com/F6AHEVZTU
<manio>
sochotnicky: pls tell me how you enabled the KCSAN output
<manio>
I assume you enabled it somehow and you've got all results in dmesg, right?

<manio>
just asking because maybe it will be useful for my case (I am trying to locate one problem in kernel module)...
cvmn has joined #foot

manio: it's was added recently-ish - it's under kernel debugging section

Hi, on my screen I have trouble reading the hyperlink shortcuts. (I think you use a better name here.) They appear in black on ochre. Can I change that locally? Thanks!
<sochotnicky>
lechner: change theme used by foot - or adjust jump-labels colors (see man 5 foot.ini) ?
<dnkl>
sochotnicky: don't think they're real issues. Foot itself doesn't read, or write to the tty from different threads.
<rj1>
foot is the best
<dnkl>
The client applications obviously reads, and writes, to the client side of the tty in parallel with foot
<lechner>
sochotnicky: "jump labels" was the name. thank you!
<sochotnicky>
dnkl: yeah, I disabled KCSAN right now, it's really probably only useful for someone who knows the app/modules more intimately...

you should check if that race you found has been reported upstream already
<ericonr>
oops, sorry for the pasted link :P
<ericonr>
sochotnicky: no applications, libraries or whatever should be able to cause races in the kernel-side code
<ericonr>
it happens, because the kernel isn't perfect and has bugs, but it shouldn't. That foot triggers them *might* also be a foot bug (doesn't seem to be the case), but it doesn't mean there's something wrong in the kernel
