Hi, I come by retriaging old bugs that have been dormant for too long giving them a second change. Right now is IMHO the right time (well again, the original report was as well) to give this a shot. We are just after an LTS could try it out and revert later if needed.
I see fixes applied for profiling by upstream every now and then, so it isn't dead. If the performance overhead while disabled is indeed negligible then why not enabling it. But as outlined before we'd want to do so together with Debian, so next steps (for us): 1. To be safe - kick off a discussion with upstream why it never has been default enabled 2. Prep a change that enables this at build time (and tests it) 3. Submit that (plus a bug if needed) for discussion with Debian Bonus: In openvswitch when we were unsure about the supportability of DPDK enabled for non DPDK environments we ended up building openvswitch twice - not sure if that is feasible with the many libs and packages of samba - but it is one more option to consider (make an extra opt-in profile enabled binary). Adding server-todo (not do do it, but to give it a bit more time to evaluate what would happen and dirve the #1 discussion of above) ** Tags added: server-todo -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1846947 Title: No profiling support To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/netdata/+bug/1846947/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
