09:50 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: hey :)

09:51 <PaulFertser> So is it the right time for the next rc today?

09:52 <PaulFertser> I see you were merging fixes just recently, so probably it's not finished yet?

09:58 <PaulFertser> Hm, regarding gerrit being slow, we start not one but two Jenkins jobs when doing CI, and that's on a single-CPU VM. That's odd, I wonder how it worked so much more reliable in the past, probably VM got downgraded or somethingz

10:09 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: hello. I have two fixes pending in gerrit, one for ticket 376, another for cortex-m33 without security. 7402 and 7403

10:11 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: do you think could be ok to merge them after RC3 ?

10:17 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: regarding Gerrit slow. I have more the feeling that it's some networking limit between the VM. When Jenkins job starts a build, it fetches the code and that looks like the moment everything turns odd. Maybe the VM is limited at n of connection per second

10:36 <zapb_> Who pays / own the server Gerrit and Jenkins runs on?

10:37 <zapb_> s/own/owns

10:38 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: I'm looking at 7402 and 7403 and can't see many reasons to /not/ merge them before rc3

10:39 <PaulFertser> zapb_: the VM is hosted with a regular commercial hoster (but for OpenOCD specifically they agreed to provide a bit better specs for the same price) and is paid from the donations the project received so far.

10:41 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: fetching the code shouldn't be a bottleneck because it's using local everything. The subprojects are cached on filesystem (and updated periodically), and Gerrit itself is hosted on the same machine so shouldn't involve any additional connections that might get limited.

10:41 <zapb_> PaulFertser, oh, we really receive donations? I'm wondering if we could promote donations a bit more

10:42 <maribu[m]> Btw: What, except for a rebase, is needed to get https://review.openocd.org/c/openocd/+/5584 in?

10:43 <maribu[m]> I have a rebase of if lying around here https://github.com/maribu/openocd/commit/0abcb3f9c1697537d71c5177bad5dbc65e79358d and it works like a charm

10:44 <zapb_> maribu[m], at least fix all coding style issues ;)

10:46 <PaulFertser> zapb_: the current amount is enough for hosting and it's unclear what to spend them on if we receive more.

10:48 <zapb_> PaulFertser, is this information (donator, amount etc.) public?

10:48 <maribu[m]> OK. I can give this a try. There may be still some rookie mistakes, as I have no experience with contributing to OpenOCD. Should I just try to take over from iosabi, or open a new {insert correct term for merge request in Gerrit context}? In either case, I would keep authorship with iosabi to not steal credits

10:49 <maribu[m]> * credit

10:49 <PaulFertser> zapb_: not the amount, but many donations are listed on https://openocd.org/pages/donations.html

10:49 <PaulFertser> maribu[m]: better to push a new version of the same change (keeping the Change-Id).

10:50 <PaulFertser> maribu[m]: it's ok to take over something that's not getting any attention from the original author anyway.

10:50 <borneoa_> maribu[m]: update the patch with same change-id. This will preserve the Gerrit history

10:51 <zapb_> PaulFertser, ah, *looks* somehow outdated but okay :D

10:52 <PaulFertser> zapb_: you mean you donated but not listed there?

10:52 <PaulFertser> The list seems to be about hardware donations only though.

10:52 <borneoa_> For 7402 and 7403 I would wait for review till tonight. Would it work for you to tag rc3 tomorrow.

10:53 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: sure thing

10:53 <zapb_> PaulFertser, yes, to me it *looks* like a list that was not updated the last 10 years :D

10:54 <PaulFertser> zapb_: Spencer is taking care of all the donations and renting the server.

10:55 <zapb_> PaulFertser, ah okay

12:04 <PaulFertser> ok, right at the moment java jenkins eats up CPU but gerrit is still responsive, hm. And it's unclear what jenkins spends it on.

12:11 <PaulFertser> Hm, strace shows it doing nothing.

12:23 <PaulFertser> strace -f -p ... is more interesting.

21:56 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: merge completed. Whenever you want, please go ahead with -rc3. Don't forget to include https://review.openocd.org/7351/

21:59 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: sure, thanks for reminding, and yes, I remember about that commit, very grateful to you for taking care of all this.

22:00 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: thanks to you!

22:01 <borneoa_> PaulFertser: did you get any hint about gerrit and jenkins?

22:29 <PaulFertser> borneoa_: not really, my tests today show Gerrit was responsive at all times, even during the 100 % CPU load.
