Hello, the docs on the repo say that the channel is on Freenode, is this the right channel? :D
<robclark>
I suppose the docs have not been updated since the great freenode implosion.. this is the right channel
<flowriser>
robclark, great! I will make a PR later to update the docs with all the things I found
<flowriser>
Managed to create a nifty dockerfile with buildx arm64 platform and it seems to be working great to create the debian installer
<flowriser>
I think it can also be used for the ubuntu one as well
<flowriser>
I am very curious; how long does it take you guys to compile the kernel with the arm toolchain?
<robclark>
I usually cross compile kernel.. but it makes a *really* big difference for full distro config building everything vs more targeted config (like maybe at least a factor of 5x or more)
<macc24>
flowriser: for me 3 minutes, one kernel for all arm64 chromebooks B-)
<flowriser>
that is impressive, I get about 8 minutes inside Docker (dunno if that makes any difference); macc24, what cpu do you have?
<macc24>
flowriser: 20 threads of xeon x5650

<flowriser>
I got 24 threads of ryzen 5900x and I find it suspicious it takes so long on my machine O.o

<HdkR>
I find that IO latency is what kills my build times
<HdkR>
Compiling over a 40gbit network connection is a heck of a lot slower than a PCIe 3.0 NVMe drive
<macc24>
i'm building in a vm, sometimes on a ramdisk
<robclark>
if one is comparing kernel build time, I recommend to use matching .config.. a single kernel that works across all arm64 chromebooks is still a lot less than distro config ;-)
<robclark>
otherwise you are likely comparing apples and oranges ;-)
<macc24>
robclark: technically cadmium config /is/ a distro config since cadmium is somewhat of a distro
<robclark>
well, I mean like a debian/fedora type distro config ;-)
<flowriser>
I sometimes hate qemu, swear to god
<macc24>
flowriser: why?
<flowriser>
So I did the whole preseed thingy to automate the iso qemu installation so I don't have to select install everytime; and now out of the blue, libvirt tells me it cannot allocate to the default pool even though it worked many times before
