19:31:44 <gitomat> [illumos-gate] 16231 git-pbchk -c $CHECK $FILES crashes with python stack trace -- Bill Sommerfeld <sommerfeld⊙ho>
20:33:13 <neirac> when a driver is going to be attached to a device is looks at /etc/driver_aliases.conf or at compatible property from prtconf -vp ? 
20:34:06 <rmustacc> So the way to think of /etc/driver_aliases is that it's an on-disk snapshot of everything the kernel knows.
20:34:10 <rmustacc> Things are added to it and then told to the kernel.
20:34:14 <rmustacc> The kernel maintains an internal mapping.
20:34:49 <rmustacc> When we get to the point that we're trying to bind a dev_info_t to a driver, the kernel will consult its internal mapping table. It will watch each entry in the compatible entry on the dev_info_t and try to find a matching driver.
20:35:07 <rmustacc> Thef irst thing that it finds will be taken, hence the order of entries in the compatible array is important and should go from most specific to least specific.
20:46:17 <tsoome> our opengrok last index update was 24 jan, is there update planned already?:)
20:46:35 <tsoome> it can not find some recent bits...
20:47:32 <neirac> rmustacc thank you for the explanation now I got it. 
21:04:17 <sommerfeld> tsoome: I believe jbk mentioned some issues with it here on February 6th and 9th
21:04:28 <tsoome> ah..
22:00:47 <jbk> well it had stopped responding for several days
22:01:03 <jbk> which prompted me to finally set one up locally on my own server
22:01:18 <jbk> and then i discovered how slooooooooow it is to index
22:01:42 <jbk> doing illumos-gate + freebsd + linux took > 24 hours on a 8 core / 16 thread machine w/ 128gb of ram
22:01:58 <jbk> (and it seemed like the bulk of it was linux)
22:02:22 <jbk> if i had more time, i'd be curious to see about something using rust or such
22:03:27 <jbk> or one thing i thought might be interesting would be to use something (there should be stuff out there) that can actually parse C (as well as the preprocessor) and index based off of that
22:03:59 <jbk> since it seems like the ctags it uses i don't think does that but is more hueristic (for lack of a better term)
23:12:25 <jclulow_> tsoome: OpenGrok indexing should be running again.  Sorry about that!
23:12:47 <jclulow_> It is an increasingly tedious piece of software to operate -- not that it was ever especially good to begin with.
