Package: release.debian.org
Severity: normal
User: release.debian....@packages.debian.org
Usertags: unblock
X-Debbugs-Cc: armci-...@packages.debian.org
Control: affects -1 + src:armci-mpi
Please unblock package armci-mpi
[ Reason ]
armci-mpi 0.3.1~beta-7 makes some small changes to test management
that will be bookworm management more reliable. Source was
occasionally and randomly failing, evidently when only 1 cpu was
available (armci-mpi usually uses 2 processes for testing). s390x
fails debci tests with mpich.
armci-mpi/0.3.1~beta-7 restricts build-time testing to 1 process if
only 1 cpu is available. It switches off mpich tests on s390x in
debian/tests.
So tests should pass more reliably and s390x won't show a "false"
failure (the failure is real but is known. No point making bookworm
continue to fail on s390x. Better to let it just monitor openmpi
operations).
[ Impact ]
If not accepted, s390x will show debci failure, when in fact openmpi
tests should be passing (an openmpi failure should not be treated as
"not a regression").
Also binNMUs may occasionally fail (if only 1 cpu is provided for the
build)
[ Tests ]
debci tests are passing as normal
s390x now reports as passing (with openmpi, skipping mpich)
[ Risks ]
(Discussion of the risks involved. E.g. code is trivial or
complex, key package vs leaf package, alternatives available.)
[ Checklist ]
[x ] all changes are documented in the d/changelog
[x ] I reviewed all changes and I approve them
[x ] attach debdiff against the package in testing
[ Other info ]
Our default MPI is openmpi. The mpich build is provided to enable an
mpich build of nwchem that supports multinode execution (with the env
variable documented in nwchem/7.0.2-4).
armci-mpi might now migrate after 20 day testing. I've filed this
unblock request to complement the unblock request for nwchem/7.0.2-4,
since nwchem/7.0.2-4 was built against armci-mpi/0.3.1~beta-7
(it uses static libraries, no problem in practice but better for
bookworm to have the matching package versions)
