@monsieuricon Or another use case is ideas of fixes discussed during in LKML, which sometimes are now put as an attachment. That would work also for them.

@monsieuricon I mean since it cannot be disabled I can just as well use it for something.

I could also see that it could be nice way to reduce noise in LKML when you specifically ask someone to drop a "quick fix". So yeah, I'm interested to try it. I'll do the fork tomorrow (it is 9PM in Finland ATM). It'll be `jarkkojs/linux-tpmdd`.

@josh @bugaevc true :-) if i actually had to work on this kind of problem i would look up binder implementation for inspiration (not sure exactly what but it is sort of code base that i like to read when I have any problem to solve related to IPC). there was recently rust version of binder submitted to LKML

@monsieuricon why not now that i'm playing with these systems anyway. also setting up CI for keyutils to gitlab

@jani you can disable these days issues, which already reduces the noise a lot

YES https://plogue.com/products/chipsynth-c64.html #commodore #c64 #sid

@jani less noise but i just realized that i can still disable notifications so that should take care of it :-)

It is 2023 but for me #Github runners are new, flashy and exciting thing. I put some for my #zmodem2 crate ( basic CI tests).I discovered these functionalities for the first time in 2022 while at #Profian, and working on #Enarx.

I was thinking that I could start to mirror my kernel.org tree to GIthub just to run some CI but can you disable PR's completely? If not, then I think I pass . What about #Gitlab?

Have not used Gitlab that much David (Howells) just set me up access for keyutils repository so have to learn to use it more.

What has turned me away so far from Gitlab is that already Github is sometimes really feeling like someone was drilling a hole through my head and Gitlab on surface looks to have even more all kinds of weird controls and looks somewhat scary but perhaps the real truth is different than my prejudice :-)

Miettinyt välillä että eikö tollaisille paikoille vois antaa erityisoikeuden pistää rajat kiinni, niin se oli problem solved. Ja ei vaikuttais kenenkään elämään mitenkään...

@lari Hauska sinänsä, että semmoista vahvaa pohjakannatusta "kansallismielisille" tulee sellaisista kunnista, jonne kukaan suomalainenkaan ei haluaisi muuttaa, kuten just joku Orivesi :-)

on vaikeata olla eri mieltä :-) vähän tässä koputellut, kun tässä pitäisi syksyllä palata yritysmaailmaan, mutta ei ole oikein mitään. eli virtuaalisesti etänä ulkomaille töihin...

@alanc Nice work! These are also becoming common for some distros:

@jani I’ve been doing ZMODEM that was also a thing in the 90s :-) https://github.com/jarkkojs/zmodem2

I guess this is sort of retro modern project :-)

Just want to sort out the issue of difficult file transfers when you have only a serial cable access and get a basic serial terminal with nothing special except file transfers of which progress you can see and also cancel them. It is 2023 and we still have to curse lrzsz so it is better to fix that issue…

I mean I had a decent experience with ZMODEM last time when using MS-DOS and software such as Telemate and Telex.

I have also TUI client in progress but had to halt that because could not find an appropriate crate with decent quality.

it is already tested with `sz` and `rz` but it would be nice to have matching tests for the examples..

generated documentation starts to look a bit like actual documentation after fixing all the clippy::pedantic errors.i was not aware of this flag until some sent a PR fixing a few of these. not that experienced with the language yet..

only thing that is left is two integration tests for examples in order call this 0.1, i.e. test_sz_to_rzm and test_rz_szm but I need a. stable and idiomatic way to point out to the executables. I guess I could make this happen by injecting stuff through build.rs, right?

after that is sorted out it is good for what i needed it originally for (my serial terminal), i’ll set up github runner for CI (tests + clippy), make the crate release and call it a day. after that not going to do proactively do anything to it except review and merge pull requests.

@jani Too bad my daughter is already 18 I mean this would be perfect for kids to learn how to program :-) Nicely put set of tutorials and preservation of computing history at the same time...

@jani I watched this few months ago when I stumbled upon it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p83QUZ1-P10&list=PLtjBEWQ66xeLEqAUssJEDQRV1cbQR2-xk. Like not as a tutorial but more like entertainment. A culture act IMHO :-)

@matthiasott With decades of coding experience I don't have the skills to implement web sites from scratch :-) It requires a whole set of skills of which coding experience might not be even the most important one.

@josh @bugaevc why there can't be an additional pipe (i.e. not stdin/stderr/stdout) for reporting how things are?
