<@davide:cavalca.name>

any followups from the last meeting?

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:08:15

nope, so let's do

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:08:16

!topic Announcements

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:08:45

we have a new systemd build tagged for release, including a couple of backported bugfixes

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:08:59

Matteo Croce: Ryan Wilson did most of the work there

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:09:37

sweet

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:10:03

also new since the last time is a qemu update

<@rrbc:matrix.org>

16:10:12

hi!

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:10:49

I swear Roberto Campesato must have been watching the qemu keyword :)

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:11:30

oh and I pushed a bind backport for c9s, as the stock one has a memory leak we were hitting in production but couldn't pinpoint to a specific commit

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:12:12

anybody else has announcements?

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:12:30

I'm getting a request to update mstflint (a Mellanox firmware burning tool) - currently we have 4.24.0 in hs.el9

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:12:44

and we need 4.28 - any objection?

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:13:13

should be fine, we've backported that one before and it's usually pretty easy

<@rrbc:matrix.org>

16:14:29

I would like to build edk2 as well for hyperscale, but didn't manage yet. Tried quickly but hit some blocks around how the sources are fetched. I also tried some builds for c10s so I'll come back with some questions eventually

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:15:19

iirc we built that in EPEL at one point, because the stock one was fine but just missing a subpackage

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:15:26

edk2 is a bit of a mess

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:15:43

yeah https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/edk2-epel

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:15:52

are you thinking of just building the Fedora version in HS, or an entirely different version?

<@rrbc:matrix.org>

16:16:25

this was the plan, and include some changes only in hs+fb (like disabling ipv4 support)

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:16:48

ah yeah if you're bumping to a new version doing the whole thing in Hyperscale is fine

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:17:46

my trick normally is adding the Fedora dist-git as a remote , switch to the fedora branch, fedpkg srpm, then upload all the sources it downloads to the CentOS SIG lookaside :)

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:18:17

I think our docs are now updated since the commands to upload are now properly packaged in one of the centos RPMS... centos-packager I think

<@rrbc:matrix.org>

16:18:33

ah interesting, I'll give it a try

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:19:10

https://sig.centos.org/hyperscale/internal/building/#onboarding

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:19:13

one more thing: https://cfp.fedoraproject.org/centos-showcase-2024-11/ is happening on Nov 4, you should join if you can

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:19:17

(it's a virtual event)

<@salimma:fedora.im>

16:19:20

see the "if you need to add new source tarballs"

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:19:23

I've submitted a SIG update there as well

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:20:35

anything else for announcements?

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:23:44

yeah

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:23:50

we have c10s kernels now

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:24:22

admittedly the most recent one failed, and I'll have to look at it

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:24:45

ugh

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:24:48

bpftool: https://cbs.centos.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=4239024

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:25:04

this is going to become a problem, I guess

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:26:00

I have an idea of how to work around it, I'll try it for the next update

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:29:04

next up

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:29:05

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:29:17

I saw Conan Kudo did some spring cleaning, thank you!

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:29:30

yeah I'm going to try to be a little more aggro about that

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:29:36

at some point we should probably sit down and go over the tracker, a bunch of stuff there is pretty old

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:29:37

it's kind have turned into a mess of things

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:29:42

yeah

<@conan_kudo:matrix.org>

16:29:53

maybe the next meetup we can have a sit down for it

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:30:03

yeah, good idea

<@davide:cavalca.name>

16:30:14
