Description Lokesh Mandvekar 2013-04-24 19:43:47 UTC

TIPC development currently happens in-tree upstream, so it's safe to enable TIPC in the kernel config file. Please see history below and also check out https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=953379#c8 for upstream's comment about current development status.

Upstream proposes to include CONFIG_TIPC=m in the kernel config file.




+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #574800 +++

Description of problem:
Recently we've found that TIPC has been getting maintained out of tree upstream for some time, and as such, the upstream TIPC code is in bad shape (lots of possible bugs/errors/oopses etc).  As such, given its state, and relatively small community use, disable it in the config for now while we work on getting upstream back into shape.

Comment 1 Neil Horman 2013-04-24 20:14:43 UTC

I agree, TIPC has had upstream participation for some time now, and it seems the maintainers are dedicated to continuing to work in the right direction.  I think Fedora can have it re-enabled as such.  I'll take care of that tomorrow.

Test build to make sure everything builds properly.  When it completes successfully, I'll commit it to rawhide and f19

New build, forgot to set TIPC_CONFIG_PORTS

Comment 4 Josh Boyer 2013-05-13 18:20:27 UTC

This was fixed in the 3.9.0 build.
