[Starlingx-discuss] CentOS 7.5 upgrade status update

Fri Sep 7 23:29:40 UTC 2018

As previously, we found lighttpd 1.4.49 and 1.4.50 both have runtime issues, there is one help-needed email to Brent see attached. If we have to switch to 1.4.50, then let's prioritize the trouble-shooting together on this. @Jason, if you can help Zhipeng on debugging this issue, that will be very much helpful: https://review.openstack.org/#/c/596263/

thanks. - cindy

Hi Shuicheng,

I've completed a build of the code.  We have not yet run run-time tests, but here are the build-time issues I encountered:

-          The .lst file contains lighttpd-1.4.49, but this is no longer available for download, and the download_mirrors.sh step fails.  It appears than CentOS has updated to lighttpd-1.4.50.  I manually built a lighttpd-1.4.49-1.src.rpm to satisfy the .lst

-          Even though the .lst file specifies lighttpd-1.4.49, the code still references 1.4.45

-          At build-pkgs time (the build-srpms step), the meta-patches to openstack-aodh do not apply, as two of them are malformed.  https://review.openstack.org/#/c/598388/6/openstack/openstack-aodh/centos/meta_patches/0001-Modify-service-files-and-create-expirer-cron-script.patch -- In the new version, on line 190, the patch states that the old code covered 6 lines, and the new code covers 9 lines (-283,6 +286,9).  But there are only two lines inserted by the patch.  There is also a new blank line in the patch at line 194.  Removing this blank line and editing the hunk description to only insert 2 lines resolves the issue for this hunk (there are other similar issues in this patch, and in 0001-meta-modify-aodh-api.patch)

-          At binary build time, I had build failures on python-django-horizon and some magnum packages.  I had to pull in https://review.openstack.org/#/c/596855/2 (from the master branch, but not in the centos75 branch of stx-upstream) to get past this.

-          After building all packages, I attempted to build the ISO.  The tpm2-tss-1.3.0-2.el7.x86_64.rpm package were missing, and should be added to the .lst files.

-          Furthermore, the tpm2-tools package was requesting version tpm2-tss-1.3.0-2.el7.centos (rather than tpm2-tss-1.3.0-2.el7).  I hacked the spec file for tpm2-tools and rebuilt it to require the version mentioned, but there is some rework to be done there.

After these changes, I was able to produce a .iso

Hi Shuicheng,

As a download_mirrors.sh time issue, the version of lighttpd has been changed from 1.4.45 to 1.4.49.  The lighttpd-1.4.49-1.el7.src.rpm file no longer exists on EPEL or CentOS servers, as they've moved to 1.4.50.  I am attempting to locate an archived version of the 1.4.49 .src rpm.

Thanks Shuicheng. We'll run some tests in Wind River. Numan will be priming this activity. He'll share the results with the team sometime next week.

Regards,
Ghada

Hi all,
Most task of CentOS7.5 upgrade in story 2003389<https://storyboard.openstack.org/#!/story/2003389> is done. Please go ahead to have a try and verify it.

Here is the detail status update of this week.
For the total 44 srpm we plan to upgrade:

38 already merged in feature branch.

3 kept as original version.  Anaconda upgrade is not needed. python-os-vif has higher version than 7.5. python-eventlet kept due to new src rpm itself have known issue.

2 under review with code ready. Puppet-haproxy and openstack-aodh.

1 under debug. Lighttpd.

Besides srpm, we also upgraded 260+ rpm packages to 7.5 version.

Here is the build instruction:

1.       Switch to f/centos75 branch for stx-tools/stx-integ/stx-upstream/stx-root.
