<gnu_srs2>sobkas: Congrats to your upstream mesa commits :)
<gnu_srs2>A question: How do you rebase your local and remote branch and submit a new MR in GIT?
<gnu_srs2>Working on a MR for another project in gitlab.
<sobkas>I clone repo, add my own remote eg 'sobkas' and do git push -f sobkas HEAD:for_hurd
<sobkas>then if I want to rebase I do git pull -r and it floats my commit to top of main branch
<jab>weird question...I'm guessing the answer is no...but is it possible for the same GNU Mach kernel to run either a 32 bit userland and/or a 64 bit userland, with the user selecting which one at boot time ?
<azert>jab: not the same kernel. Userspace pointer size is chosen at compile time
<sobkas>jab: Right now amd64 kernel is build with --disable-user32 it disables 32bit userspace, never poked it before
<sobkas>How much of space llvm build on hurd needs?
<jab`>well I know why I couldn't get the Hurd to run in qemu a couple of days ago. My user was not in the kvm group, so the Hurd's performance was complete crap.
<jab`>The hurd kept locking up with the tiniest things.
<azert>sobkas: I might be wrong, but I think that with --disable-user32 what is really disabled is the 32bit system call interface. And that you currently cannot keep both this as well as the 64bit one
<azert>32bit userspace should still be available to allow thingslike, just not directly calling the kernel from it
<azert> things like wine
