A note about riscv64 changes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



A quick note that you may be seeing pull requests for riscv64 changes
against your packages, like these examples:

https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/ghc/pull-request/7
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/zlib-ng/pull-request/11
https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/gdal/pull-request/21

For many years we have been building Fedora for the RISC-V
architecture on a separate build system at
http://fedora.riscv.rocks/koji/ , and maintaining downstream patches
against dist-git in http://fedora.riscv.rocks:3000/rpms/
(Most of this work was done by David Abdurachmanov, not me.)

I'm trying to get as much of this stuff back into Fedora dist-git,
although only (hopefully!) where it doesn't break ordinary builds and
isn't intrusive.  Obviously I may get this wrong sometimes so feel
free to make comments if you disagree with changes.

Some time, with any luck soon, we will be creating a new Koji instance
with FAS authentication which will allow anyone to optionally build
their packages on RISC-V builders.  And then later in the year we may
be in a position with the availability of new hardware to discuss
adding RISC-V as a regular architecture.  (We're not there yet as
current hardware is far too slow to force it on Fedora developers.)
