obs-service-vendor_node_modules by cdimonaco

Description

When building a javascript package for obs, one option is to use https://github.com/openSUSE/obs-service-node_modules as source service to get the project npm dependencies available for package bulding.

obs-service-vendornodemodules aims to be a source service that vendors npm dependencies, installing them with npm install (optionally only production ones) and then creating a tar package of the installed dependencies.

The tar will be used as source in the package building definitions.

Goals

• Create an obs service package that vendors the npm dependencies as tar archive.
• Maybe add some macros to unpack the vendor package in the specfiles

Learn obs/ibs sync tool by xlai

Description

Once images/repo are built from IBS/OBS, there is a tool to sync the image from IBS/OBS to openqa asset directory and trigger openqa jobs accordingly.

Goals

Check how the tool is implemented, and be capable to add/modify our needed images/repo in future by ourselves.

Switch software-o-o to parse repomd data by hennevogel

Currently software.opensuse.org search is using the OBS binary search for everything, even for packages inside the openSUSE distributions. Let's switch this to use repomd data from download.opensuse.org

Bootstrap openSUSE on LoongArch by glaubitz

Description

LoongArch is a new architecture from China which has its roots in the MIPS architecture. It has been created by Loongson and is already supported by Debian Ports, Gentoo and Loongnix.

Upstream support for LoongArch is already quite complete which includes LLVM, Rust, Golang, GRUB, QEMU, LibreOffice and many more. In Debian Ports, where the port is called "loong64", more than 95% of the whole Debian archive have been successfully built for LoongArch.

QEMU support is rather complete and stable such that packages can be built in emulated environments. Hardware can also be requested by Loongson on request for free. Access to real hardware is also provided through the GCC Compile Farm.

Goals

The initial goal should be to add LoongArch to OBS and build a minimal set of packages.

Resources

• Introduction to LoongArch: https://docs.kernel.org/arch/loongarch/introduction.html
• LoongArch community on Github: https://github.com/loongarchlinux
• Debian Ports repository for loong64: http://ftp.ports.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-loong64/main/
• Gentoo stage3 for loong: https://www.gentoo.org/downloads/#loong

Results

• An initial set of packages for openSUSE loongarch64 has been successfully bootstrapped
• An OBS project has been set up to build packages for openSUSE loongarch64 with more than 3000 packages being built already
• A work-in-progress guide on how to bootstrap a new openSUSE port from Debian has been created
• A work-in-progress guide on how to add a new target to the openSUSE toolchain has been created

Acknowledgements

• Thanks to Adrian Schröter and Rüdiger Oertl for the help with setting up the FTP space and OBS project
• Thanks to Dirk Müller for the input on how to get started with a new port
• Thanks to Richard Biener for quickly accepting my submit requests to add loongarch64 support to the toolchain

Automation of ABI compatibility checks by ateixeira

Description

ABI compatibility checks could be further automated by using the OBS API to download built RPMs and using existing tools to analyze ABI compatibility between the libraries contained in those packages. This project aims to explore these possibilities and figure out a way to make ABI checks as painless and fast as possible for package maintainers.
