Hi to all project maintainers,
As you may know, over the last few months the oVirt project had got some code contributions geared towards enabling the use of s390x (Mainframe) machines as hypervisor hosts.
As you may also know, if you've followed the relevant thread, some work had been done in collaboration with the Fedora community to enable os390x support in oVirt`s CI system.
We're now at the point where we can take the final step and enable automated builds of node components for s390x/fc27. Looking at what we curently build for ppc64le, I already took the time and submitted patches to enable build jobs for vdsm [2], ovirt-host [3], and ioprocess [4]. The relevant maintainers should have had these patches land in thair inbpx already.
Few questions remain however: 1. When would be the best time to merge the patches mentioned above? Given that some of the projects do not support fc27 yet, that the new build jobs may raise issues and that the 4.2 release is fast approaching, the right timing should be considered carefully.
We should prepare a fedora 27 build for all projects before we enable the jobs in the CI. But if we can disable problematic jobs in the CI easily (and it seems we can), I think this is not a problem.
You can merge the ioprocess change now if you like.
2. Which additional projects need to be build? I can see we build some SDK components for ppc64le as wel, are those dependences of vdsm? Will we need to build then for s390x?
For vdsm we need: - ioprocess (nsoffer) - ovirt-imageio-daemon (derez) - ovirt-imageio-common (derez) - pthreading (ybronhei) - subprocess32 (sbonazzo?)
subprocess32 is included in Fedora https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=15499 I just rebuild it for Virt SIG: http://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=3725
For engine: - ovirt-imageio-common - ovirt-imageio-proxy
This is only (some) the components that we build. We have also tons of dependencies that are part of Fedora (e.g. sanlock, libvirt). I hope these projects are built for s390x.
Added some maintainers.
