#4985: Extend test image creation SOP to require notification of delays ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Reporter: adamwill | Owner: rel-eng(a)lists.fedoraproject.org Type: task | Status: new Milestone: | Component: koji Keywords: | ----------------------+----------------------------------------------------- Working through the F16 QA retrospective here: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_16_QA_Retrospective One of the notes is: "jlaska - Alpha TC1 - Missed the Alpha-TC1 milestone by 1 week, little to no communication regarding status. With only two weeks Alpha ISO test time, losing 50% of time almost certainly results in a slip. See rel-eng ticket#4844 . None of the Alpha rel-eng release tickets have been filed at this time. adamw - perhaps releng image compose SOP should require updating of ticket with progress info, especially when image compose / delivery is delayed?" So: this ticket proposes that the releng 'Composing test images' SOP - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Composing_test_images - should be extended to require whoever is creating the images to post a comment on the image request ticket if the compose is delayed, explaining the reasons for the delay (so that any other interested party can attempt to contribute to resolving them) and giving a best estimate of an ETA if possible (so other groups can adjust their scheduling as best they can).

#5924: CPUID flags on buildvm-20.phx2.fedoraproject.org -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: jakub | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 21 Alpha | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ In the gcc-4.9.0-12.fc21 build logs I saw a weird error: /builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.9.0-20140619/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/gcc/xgcc -B/builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.9.0-20140619/obj-x86_64-redhat-linux/gcc/ /builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.9.0-20140619/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/pr57275.c -fno-diagnostics-show-caret -fdiagnostics-color=never -O3 -march=native -lm -o ./pr57275.exe /builddir/build/BUILD/gcc-4.9.0-20140619/gcc/testsuite/gcc.target/i386/pr57275.c:1:0: error: CPU you selected does not support x86-64 instruction set and I'd like to debug that, but don't know of a way to force e.g. a scratch rpm build to a particular build host. Would it be possible for some release engineer to run gcc -v -march=native -S -xc /dev/null -o /tmp/foo.s cat /proc/cpuinfo in the F21 mock chroot on that box? Perhaps we are missing something in the -m{arch,tune}=native logic, a CPU which clearly does support x86_64 64-bit ISA should not be determined as one that does not.

#5959: Enable keep-alive connections for koji (primary and secondaries) -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: till | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 20 Final | Component: koji Keywords: meeting | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ Keeping connections alive will speed up koji acces when multiCall() is not used without a significant speed penalty. Therefore it is a good idea to support this. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5959> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

Lookaside: Move away from md5
by Mathieu Bridon 24 Feb '15

24 Feb '15

We should move to something more secure than md5 for the uploaded sources. This patch series implements the client-side part of this change. We might want to drop the md5 fallback once we have migrated completely, that is when: 1. all archives on the lookaside have been moved to a stronger hash 2. the "sources" file in all git repos has been updated to the same hash https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5846

#5846: move away from md5 for look-aside cache ------------------+------------------------ Reporter: till | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: | Component: other Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | ------------------+------------------------ The lookaside cache uses md5, but something more secure like sha-256 or sha-512 should be used instead. Maybe it should even be made to allow easy changes in the future. -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5846> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project

#5654: Report full image creation for quality website updates

#5654: Report full image creation for quality website updates -----------------------------+------------------------ Reporter: shaiton | Owner: rel-eng@… Type: task | Status: new Milestone: Fedora 19 Final | Component: koji Keywords: | Blocked By: Blocking: | -----------------------------+------------------------ Hi, we already discussed a bit about this issues with nirik, before the F19 release day. However, yesterday was worse as expected. Please see the number of fixes: https://git.fedorahosted.org/cgit/fedora-web.git/log/ (7 important fixes after the merge into prod aedf487eb). == Summary of major issues: * http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/spins/ changed to http://torrent.fedoraproject.org/torrents and we had no idea about this. * The naming scheme of the file changed which introduced a bug in our spins website build as it is based against the Json file. We had to fix a 2 years old python code. And we did not know about this. * Each release we have the 32 bit arch named i686 or i386, it's always changing. We defined variables in order to help us maintain the websites.. And this does not help us. I know that it depends of the proc instruction set. But where is the need to change that really? Could we avoid it? Sooner or later we will drop 32 bit arch... Couldn't we define which arch to stick with? * We don't know before last minute if the Spin has built for GA and therefore if it is going to be released. We need to check it manually. And really, we can't do it all manually. (as lazy programmers we can't even think about this). * Even the spins name has changed in the past, which break our code and already existing URLs. And then we need to define URL redirect... I hope jam-kde won't be changed to jam-mate-compiz-fusion-dark at some point.. Just wondering... * The secondary (ARM) path changed from Images/arm/ to Images/armhfp/.. I understand the need to tell if it's using FP or not, but again we didn't know about this before testing in prod. That should not happen again. Please, help me define the best way to avoid this. It could be improving SOP, or updating a file after each build.. whatever. It's a probably wider collaboration issues as it is involving primary, secondary, SIGs (spins, cloud).. But starting with Releng we can probably sort this and define the smoother solution for all. What we need in a simple way (script friendly) and easy to generate for you is a way to get: All image full name, path (if possible before release), size (not needed for torrents), format (torrent, spin, dvd, cloud... whatever) and checksum. What can't be available easily can have an easy process to get them or at least we need to know how and when to get them. The most important of course is the image full name. If we don't know that this image exists (or died), we won't be able to update it. Any brillant idea? -- Ticket URL: <https://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng/ticket/5654> Fedora Release Engineering <http://fedorahosted.org/rel-eng> Release Engineering for the Fedora Project
