arm7 gitbuilder ?

[Loic Dachary]

Hi Sandon,

Would it be possible to resurect / create an arm7 gitbuilder for whatever distribution is more convenient ? Janne made a great contribution to erasure code optimization on NEON ( https://bitbucket.org/jannau/gf-complete/branch/neon ) and it would make it easier to have a gitbuilder to run it throught teuthology and torture it ;-) If that's complicated or there is another way to run teuthology jobs for this purpose, I'm open to suggestions.

Cheers

We have a bunch of armv7l nodes that used to run distcc and a gitbuilder.
It's a bit of a time suck to maintain, though. Is there an interested
party we can set up with lab access that can help administer these on an
ongoing basis? Sandon is a highly contended resource. :)

Thanks!

Long term I'm not sure. I'll try to setup something temporary and see where it goes. Is there a risk that these machines go away in the next 6 months ? 3 months ?

No risk! :)

I am an interested party, and at least in the short term would
dedicate some time to getting arm7 builds working too.

Hi Noah,

My focus is to create centos7 and ubuntu-14.04 packages at this point. And somehow find a way to convince teuthology to use them instead of what http://ceph.com/gitbuilder.cgi creates, but that's a separate issue.

What kind of output would you like to get from these arm7 machines ?

Cheers

What we did previously was use one set (~20 nodes?) for build, and the
remainder for any testing. We can probably just resurrect that
arrangement?

Yes. The idea would be that we ask Sandon a one time help for resurection ? And we then fix whatever problem show up by ourselves. We could also try to resurect the gitbuilder pool without Sandon to save his time. But ... I have not clue where to start ;-)

I think a newish Ubuntu should work just fine for us. Are the builds
using a cross compile? If so it'd be great if there was one build for
ARMv8.

I would be surprised if it could easily be setup for cross compilation. Although it would be nice to have an ARMv8 I don't need it right now. Do you ?

Potentially. I'll poke around a bit and see. Maybe we can run 32-bit
builds on ARMv8. I'm not in a huge rush, and can always build from
source on those boxes, as cross-compiling might be a major headache :)

You are lucky to have access to ARMv8 boxes :-) Would you be willing to run a few tests on my behalf ?

That might be a challenge since we (our reserach group) don't own
them--we just have remote access for a specific project. But it
doesn't hurt to ask! I'll let you know.
