Fedora Linux 39 Beta blocker status summary #1

2023-09-10 Thread Adam Williamson
Hi folks! Sorry for not sending these sooner, but better late than
never: here's a blocker bug status summary for Fedora 39. We're
currently targeting a go/no-go meeting this Thursday (September 14) and
release the following Tuesday (September 19).

Action summary
==

Accepted blockers
-

1. anaconda - webUI: cannot install to encrypted software RAID
partition - POST: anaconda team to send new release/build

2. kernel - /dev/tpm* is missing with new kernels - VERIFIED: releng
and I to push the fix stable

3. shim - Live image made with BOOTX64.EFI from latest shim-x64-15.6-2
fails to boot on some boards - NEW: likely waive again at go/no-go

Proposed blockers
-

1. anaconda - Anaconda webUI can't handle two volumes with the same
LABEL, writes into a different partition than indicated - NEW: anaconda
team to investigate and fix

2. edk2 - Fedora 39 fails to boot on qemu VM using OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd
firmware - NEW: QA to isolate the bug more precisely, kraxel to
investigate and fix

3. fedora-repos - updates-testing is not enabled when it should be -
VERIFIED: releng and I to push the fix stable

4. python-blivet - blivet-gui creates different volumes with the same
name, confusing anaconda webUI - ASSIGNED: blivet team to investigate
and fix

Bug-by-bug detail
=

Accepted blockers
-

1. anaconda - webUI: cannot install to encrypted software RAID
partition - POST

There is a fix for this which has been verified. We need a new anaconda
build with it included (anaconda team).

2. kernel - /dev/tpm* is missing with new kernels - VERIFIED

This just needs to be pushed to stable (me and releng).

3. shim - Live image made with BOOTX64.EFI from latest shim-x64-15.6-2
fails to boot on some boards - NEW

It seems that, unfortunately, we may have to waive this *again*. There
is definite movement upstream but it probably hasn't moved far enough
to let us fix it for Beta. We're hoping to finally have this resolved
for Final.

Proposed blockers
-

1. anaconda - Anaconda webUI can't handle two volumes with the same
LABEL, writes into a different partition than indicated - NEW

It's possible to have multiple btrfs volumes with the same label, which
confuses anaconda/blivet and can result in data getting written to a
different place than indicated. Seems likely to be accepted as a
blocker, we need anaconda/blivet folks to look at fixing this (anaconda
team).

2. edk2 - Fedora 39 fails to boot on qemu VM using OVMF_CODE.secboot.fd
firmware - NEW

This was initially filed and proposed on the basis that VM boot didn't
work at all, but then we discovered it was specific to the Secure Boot-
enabled UEFI firmware configuration. That may not be important enough
to merit blocker status, but we should definitely look into exactly
what the trigger is between host and guest, and get the edk2
maintainers to look into this (kraxel).

3. fedora-repos - updates-testing is not enabled when it should be -
VERIFIED

It's an interesting question whether the criteria do or should cover
this, but the fix is already accepted as an FE and queued for stable,
so it will be pushed shortly (me and releng).

4. python-blivet - blivet-gui creates different volumes with the same
name, confusing anaconda webUI - ASSIGNED

This is kinda a companion to 1: not only can multiple btrfs volumes
with the same label exist, but blivet actually creates them this way at
present unless you explicitly set a label. There's a question whether
resolving this would be enough to make 1. not a blocker, or whether we
should still block on 1. because other tools could potentially create
the same situation. Either way, we want blivet devs to fix this,
ideally (vtrefny).

[Test-Announce] 2023-09-11 @ 16:00 UTC - Fedora 39 Blocker Review Meeting

2023-09-10 Thread Adam Williamson
# F39 Blocker Review meeting
# Date: 2023-09-11
# Time: 16:00 UTC
# Location: #fedora-blocker-review on irc.libera.chat (*NOT* Matrix)

Hi folks! We have 4 proposed Beta blockers, 5 proposed Beta freeze
exception issues and 4 proposed Final blockers to review, so let's
have a meeting tomorrow.

The meeting will on IRC only due to the ongoing lack of a Matrix <->
IRC bridge and a meeting bot on the Matrix side. If you no longer have
an IRC setup you can join via webIRC: https://web.libera.chat/ , enter
a nickname and put #fedora-blocker-review in the Channel box.

If you have time tonight, you can take a look at the proposed or
accepted blockers before the meeting -  the full lists can be found
here: https://qa.fedoraproject.org/blockerbugs/ .

Remember, you can also now vote on bugs outside of review meetings! If
you look at the bug list in the blockerbugs app, you'll see links
labeled "Vote!" next to all proposed blockers and freeze exceptions.
Those links take you to tickets where you can vote.
https://pagure.io/fedora-qa/blocker-review has instructions on how
exactly you do it. We usually go through the tickets shortly before the
meeting and apply any clear votes, so the meeting will just cover bugs
where there wasn't a clear outcome in the ticket voting yet. **THIS
MEANS IF YOU VOTE NOW, THE MEETING WILL BE SHORTER!**

We'll be evaluating these bugs to see if they violate any of the 
Release Criteria and warrant the blocking of a release if they're not 
fixed. Information on the release criteria for F39 can be found on the 
wiki [0].

For more information about the Blocker and Freeze exception process, 
check out these links:
 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_blocker_bug_process
 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_freeze_exception_bug_process

And for those of you who are curious how a Blocker Review Meeting 
works - or how it's supposed to go and you want to run one - check out 
the SOP on the wiki:
 - https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/QA:SOP_Blocker_Bug_Meeting

Have a good day and see you tomorrow!
