dunno but it sure is frustrating
<steev>
especially when 4 out of 5 times, the reboot doesn't reboot properly
<steev>
i attempted to revert soundwire: stream: Make master_list ordered to prevent deadlocks and interestingly enough, the first reboot did NOT give me a null pointer deref, but also didn't give me working audio, but 4 reboots/cold boots from holding power button down (because i can't tell what is going on because i no longer get console when shutting down) and i'm back to getting them

i can also tell if there is gonna be a null pointer deref because the speaker icon doesn't show up on the gdm login screen (because it doesn't happen til you actually log in)

<JensGlathe[m]> "why is sound even more complicat..." <- Funny thing is I have worked on two ports of games from the N64. For both of them audio was the hardest part. Fixing logic took a few weeks of man power. Graphics was about the same. Audio took around 2 months.

hrrm, wifi after working well for ages has started crashing like crazy today on my x13s
<steev>
audio would also be a lot easier if i could fucking play with the damn modules instead of having to reboot each time, but they're all tied together in this weird dependency hell, so i can't even modprobe -r
<steev>
knowing my luck though, it's probably soemthing stupid and the QMI wait timeout just means that the audio firmware isn't getting loaded or something
<JensGlathe[m]>
I guess I need a different approach
<steev>
are you doing git bisect or are you pulling each commit?
<JensGlathe[m]>
bisect, but odd. I needed to cherry-pick the chain of commits that are not mainline every time (that works well), otherwise I won't get the bsod behaviour because it depends on venus.
<JensGlathe[m]>
That throws the bisect algorithm into slo-mo apparently. 2 options to rectify it:
<JensGlathe[m]>
1. rebase mainline onto the good branch and bisect that
<JensGlathe[m]>
2. take a separate repo for bisect recording
<JensGlathe[m]>
I'm inclined to do #2, hate to do shenanigans with the mainline
<JensGlathe[m]>
in the end it's whatever works
<steev>
oh, yeah
<steev>
maybe konradybcio has some ideas
<JensGlathe[m]>
cross-build fails badly (so its build on the box)
<steev>
looks like they've pushed out v641 to the firmware repo for bluetooth
<steev>
no idea what is different because as always, there's no mention of what changes
