SRPMS for AltArch (more specifically aarch64 kernel)
by Dominique Martinet 22 Aug '18

22 Aug '18

Hi folks, I've asked on IRC and have been pointed to this list. I can't seem to find this particular source rpm: kernel-aarch64-4.5.0-29.el7.src.rpm which is what is pointed by `rpm -qi kernel` on my system. Are these supposed to be available anywhere? Looking on google I only see one for an older release in someone's centos user/people page, but I can't seem to find these in any repo. The debuginfo are properly here but it's good to have sources as well when messing around with low level stuff :) Cheers and thanks for the hard work, -- Dominique Martinet

Status of Ansible within CentOS 7 and SIGs
by Thomas Oulevey 10 Jun '18

10 Jun '18

Hello Folks, Starting with CentOS 7.5, ansible package will no be available in CentOS -extras anymore as Red Hat decided to ship Ansible on a separate channel. Looking at ansible package in CBS [1] I see that Troy, Fabian, Sandro and Alan are rebuilding it. Can we get better at that task ? My proposal would to initiate a rebuild of the new Ansible channel[2](within the Config Management SIG) and follow a better release cycle. What do you think ? Would it be a solution from all SIG, or should we continue to ship Ansible within each SIG ? I would be happy to contribute the rebuild/debranding of existing source rpms (all available versions) if we all agree. Please note that EPEL is shipping again Ansible 2.5 as it was removed from Extras [3] -- Thomas Oulevey [1]: http://cbs.centos.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=1947 [2]: http://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/enterprise/7Server/en/Ansible/SRPMS/ [3]: https://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/packageinfo?packageID=13842

URLs in centos-release-<sig> packages: /altarch vs. /centos/
by Brian Stinson 13 May '18

13 May '18

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Folks, Now that we have SIG Content in the /altarch directories for CentOS 7 on the mirrors, we need to come with some requirements and recommendations for dealing with the different locations. tl;dr The current thinking is to add the following snippet in the %post of centos-release and release to all of the arches. This will set a yum var to the correct content location when a new system gets installed: `uname -m | grep -q 'x86_64' && echo 'centos' >/etc/yum/vars/contentdir || echo 'altarch' >/etc/yum/vars/contentdir` Here's the start of a proposal from the SIG perspective ## Requirements: - - The same noarch binary RPM *must* be distributable to the Extras repo for each architecture - - The centos-release-<SIG> packages *must* require centos-release ## New Recommendations for creating a centos-release file: - - A yum variable called 'contentdir' will be populated with the toplevel directory for SIGs to use 1.) Modify baseurls in the SIG repo files to look like the following (using openstack-queens as an example): [centos-openstack-queens] name=CentOS-7 - OpenStack queens baseurl=https://mirror.centos.org/$contentdir/cloud/$basearch/openstack-que… gpgcheck=1 enabled=1 gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-SIG-Cloud exclude=sip,PyQt4 ## Discussion I'd like to hear thoughts, additions, and subtractions here before we update the SIGGuide and rework centos-release.

[Artwork] Is the Artwork SIG alive?
by Rich Bowen 03 May '18

03 May '18

I've been working through the various SIGs, trying to determine which ones are active. I'm curious about the state of the Artwork SIG. https://wiki.centos.org/SpecialInterestGroup/Artwork Is this still an ongoing effort, or is it "done"? -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com @RDOcommunity // @CentOSProject // @rbowen

Reboot issue with kernel 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64
by Lamar Owen 02 May '18

02 May '18

Ok, so I'm trying out CR for 7.5.1804, and I have upgrade three machines with it. One is my laptop, a Dell Precision M6700, which worked fine. Another is a Dell R715 server, and that worked fine. The third machine will not successfully reboot with the 3.10.0-862.el7.x86_64 kernel, throwing endless errors of the form "qla2xxx [0000:03:07.0]-5046:4: Async-gpdb failed - hdX-xxx portid=xxxxxx status=38 mb1=0 mb2=0 mb6=0 mb7" (that's as long as the line is on the screen, and it's not recorded into /var/log/messages (and C7 by default doesn't implement persistent journal storage; journalctl --list-boots only lists the current boot log)). System is a bit old, but is only used for development: Dell PowerEdge SC1425 two single-core Xeon 3.2GHz (obviously 64-bit capable, as it is running stock CentOS 7 already, with kernel 3.10.0-693.21.1.el7.x86_64 running fine. System is connected to two EMC Clariion arrays via a dual-port Fibre-Channel card: lspci tells me: 03:07.0 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp. ISP2312-based 2Gb Fibre Channel to PCI-X HBA (rev 02) 03:07.1 Fibre Channel: QLogic Corp. ISP2312-based 2Gb Fibre Channel to PCI-X HBA (rev 02) Yeah, I know, not new, and maybe even deprecated (I actually don't see that adapter in the deprecated list for RHEL 7.5, but I do see ISP24xx ones in the deprecated list), but it worked fine with the 7.4.1708 kernel. I set the system to boot the older kernel until I can more fully troubleshoot. I have a lot invested in ISP24xx-based cards, which are on the deprecated list, and I am still running fibre-channel, so will have to find another solution before 7.x EOL. So I consider this a regression; for the moment I'll boot the older kernel, but I know that isn't sustainable.

CentOS 7.4.1708 CR Available in CBS
by Brian Stinson 27 Apr '18

27 Apr '18

Hi Folks, The CR (https://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories/CR) repository was released earlier today. We have regenerated all the CentOS 7 buildroots in CBS so you can build against the content that will make it into the next point-release of CentOS Linux. Machines in ci.centos.org are available with CR as well so you may continue your testing. As we discussed earlier (https://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2018-April/016627.html) we are currently in Point-release Freeze which means anything tagged for release will *NOT* get pushed out to mirror.centos.org and we will be holding new push requests until we have a GA point-release. If there are any questions please find us here or in #centos-devel on Freenode. Cheers! -- Brian Stinson

[HPC SIG] "talking points" for an HPC event
by Rich Bowen 27 Apr '18

27 Apr '18

I was hoping to get the attention of folks from the HPC SIG to help me craft a message to take to an HPC event that I'll be attending soon - ISC-HPC in Frankfurt. I expect that you're aware of it. Last year, I got questions regarding what's happening in the HPC SIG in CentOS, and I know at that time it was still fairly young. I was hoping to get something from you - whether bullet points, a blog post, a video I should watch, or whatever - so that this year I will be better informed, and can answer questions intelligently about what's happening in HPC in CentOS. I see just one email to this list, from back in October, from Adrian Reber, about the first SIG meeting, but nothing since then. Are you having regular meetings that I should attend between now and June? Thanks for any info you can pass my way. --Rich -- Rich Bowen - rbowen(a)redhat.com @CentOSProject // @rbowen
