WhoWhatWhen
syoungmchehab: my pull request is marked as accepted, but not in media_tree yet. Did you forget to push? [15:50]
mchehabmaybe
or maybe I applied on a wrong local branch... that seems to be the case, actually
hmm.. no...
I'll check later what happened
877f1a7cee3f media: rc: mceusb: allow the timeout to be configurable
91352b572786 media: rc: mceusb: IR of length 0 means IR timeout, not reset
53a62800efb2 media: rc: mce_kbd decoder: fix race condition
cb5bd0575c41 media: rc: mce_kbd decoder: remove superfluous call to input_sync
63039c29f7a4 media: rc: mce_kbd decoder: fix stuck keys
539327608dbe media: rc: mce_kbd protocol encodes two scancodes
c421c62a4a08 media: rc: mce_kbd decoder: low timeout values cause double keydowns

syoungyep, looks good. Thanks [16:09]

[16:10]
syoungthanks [16:13]

mchehabsyoung: should be there
there was a conflict on a temp tree I use here
(locally)
In order to make it more secure, I have one local bare tree...
where I push everything
and from there I push upstream
I didn't notice a conflict on an experimental branch when I pushed to the bare tree
! [rejected] devel/compile_test_v7 -> devel/compile_test_v7 (non-fast-forward)
what I do here is:
$ git push && git --git-dir my_bare_tree.git/ push
due to the conflict, it didn't push from the bare tree
syoung: anyway, patches should be there
please check
[17:46]
syoungmchehab: I've checked it, looks good. Thanks! [18:03]

mchehabgreat, thanks!
oh, no! something that I was afraid started to happen...
people are starting to send patches to "fix" Spectre variant 1 bugs
except that they have no idea about what it means nor how this could be exploited
they're doing it just because a new logic at smatch started to popup warnings
As described at the commit that introduced the smatch spectre analyser:
Logically, you would have expected those numbers to be closer together so
it probably indicates this test is very flawed.

Anyway, this is a first draft..
https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/smatch.git/commit/?id=69e9094e11c16853fd40e3b00ca25aa041ca8733
hverkuil, pinchartl, sailus, syoung: please be grumpy when people start sending "spectre" fix patches
I don't discard that some things would be vulnerable to it, but the one sending us a patch should provide us some explanation to convince us about the need...
as spectre mitigation made by some script kid usually means: "let's slow down the Kernel... just in case"
