gperftools missing ppc64le support sharkcz update 2.2.1 gperftools-2.2.1-1.fc21
ceph OOM due too many CPUs and too few memory sharkcz run build on builder with only 4 or 6 CPUs online - added RFE for redhat-rpm-config
dbus-python test failing test fails on ppc64 only with latest buildroot dbus-python-1.2.0-5.fc21 rebuilt with pygobject3-3.13.3-1.fc21 in buildroot
libdb FTBFS with openjdk8 - http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1941862 jcajka 1119258 fails on all archs libdb-5.3.28-7.fc21
python3-cairo failing tests - http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1942017 jcajka probably the same problem was with pycairo python3-cairo-1.10.0-10.fc21

python FTBFS in primary - http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=7135864 - the maintainer is looking on it => root cause are changes in glibc and openssl glibc 1119769 we need a new build because python-2.7.7-2.fc21 uses the old libffi ABI on LE python-2.7.7-3.fc21 built
strace "failed to trace fstatat/fstatat64 properly" - http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1960025 sharkcz 1122323 strace-4.8-5.fc21

xorg-x11-apps and busybox struct winsize not defined hamzy 1122714 should be fixed in glibc 2.20

Detailed plans

python (DONE)

  • http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1962223 which uses latest gcc-4.9.1-2.fc21 and glibc-2.19.90-30.fc21, but still fails on setegid test
  • plan agreed with Siddhesh
    • (DONE as glibc-2.19.90-31.fc22) he builds new glibc in rawhide and assures there is no problem in primary (i686), no builds in f21 until we are sure it works on all platforms
    • (DONE) we rebuild this one in f21 as scratch build - http://ppc.koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/taskinfo?taskID=1964230
    • then rebuild python with it, mean a local mock build, on both ppc64 and ppc64le and wait for the result
      • if all OK, I'll forward the info to Siddhesh
      • if BAD, then we will work on isolating the failing test and give him access to the machine
      • isolating the test could mean rebuild without test suite to have the python binaries that can be then used to execute the test

Various notes

  • recently I have seen a stuck guile process (during build of graphviz-2.38.0-8.fc21 on ppc-le-builder2), very likely due the threading issue (waiting in futex), after attaching strace to the hung process, the process got unblocked
