| nacelle | Joerg-Neo900: the first sata specs call for hotplug support | 00:03 |
|---|---|---|
| nacelle | hence why the hardware is designed for it even (if you look at the power plug, the ground pin sticks out just a little more so it goes in first) | 00:03 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | sure, it's not mandatory however, at least SATA (not eSATA) often seems to _not_ support hotplugging | 00:18 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | and linux seems to never have heard of eSATA anyway | 00:18 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | since otherwise why would I have needed >><Pali> Joerg-Neo900: command for rescaning sata devices on bus <n>: "echo \"- - -\" >/sys/class/scsi_host/host<n>/scan"'<< | 00:20 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | and even that is a pretty disruptive and dangerous command | 00:21 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | it seems to talk-over to other channels/buses on my system | 00:21 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | sort of similar to blkid | 00:22 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | I.E. it seems to make all drives stumble, not only "rescan" the one drive/bus I give as parameter | 00:23 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | maybe was a hiccup in my old dusty OS, I didn't check nor reproduce this on the up-to-date system now | 00:24 |
| nacelle | software support for it early on was quite hit or miss, true | 00:27 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | s/ talk-over / crosstalk/ | 00:32 |
| Pali | Joerg-Neo900: that is the last command to call when SATA disk does not wont to show up in the system | 00:46 |
| Joerg-Neo900 | Pali: yeah. had it that way. And the reason I'd need it: when the hardware doesn't even detect a hotplug on hw level | 01:04 |
| Pali | IIRC you can also specify numbers instead of - - - to limit what would be probed | 01:06 |
| Pali | I'm using that command to initialize optical mechanic after hostplug | 01:06 |
| Pali | sata (and also pci-e) has hotplug support but ... some hw has it improperly implemented | 01:07 |
| Pali | sometimes pci rescan also helps | 01:07 |
| booyah | Pali: how you do pci rescan? | 01:37 |
| Pali | booyah: there is some file in sysfs for it | 01:37 |
| Pali | booyah: look: https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/ABI/testing/sysfs-bus-pci | 01:39 |
| Pali | you have more "rescan" files, either rescan everything or rescan pci subtree... | 01:40 |
| fpat | :) | 13:37 |
| Digit | oh devuan. still doing me well. :) | 15:20 |
| Kizano | lol +1 Digit | 15:58 |
| Centurion_Dan | o/ | 18:08 |
| MinceR | \o | 18:10 |
| Centurion_Dan | So seems there are a couple of people interested in ppc64el and ppc64 (BE) for Devuan from the Talos2 community... | 18:29 |

| DocScrutinizer | a_flj_1: egrep '(s)ystemd' | 20:40 |
| DocScrutinizer | egrep 'k\ontact' works too, but has pitfalls | 20:47 |
| DocScrutinizer | well, egrep 's\ystemd' | 20:48 |
| DocScrutinizer | always working and maybe more convenient since "syntactically" simpler e.g. for aliases: egrep '[^]]kontact' | 20:55 |
