https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=2215187 Bug ID: 2215187 Summary: Review Request: gensio - General Stream I/O Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Hardware: All OS: Linux Status: NEW Component: Package Review Severity: medium Priority: medium Assignee: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: felix@xxxxxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Target Milestone: --- Classification: Fedora Spec URL: https://heffer.fedorapeople.org/review/gensio/gensio.spec SRPM URL: https://heffer.fedorapeople.org/review/gensio/gensio-2.6.5-3.fc39.src.rpm Description: This is gensio (pronounced gen'-see-oh), a framework for giving a consistent view of various stream (and packet) I/O types. You create a gensio object (or a gensio), and you can use that gensio without having to know too much about what is going on underneath. You can stack gensio on top of another one to add protocol functionality. For instance, you can create a TCP gensio, stack SSL on top of that, and stack Telnet on top of that. It supports a number of network I/O and serial ports. gensios that stack on other gensios are called filters. You can do the same thing with receiving ports. You can set up a gensio accepter (accepter) to accept connections in a stack. So in our previous example, you can setup TCP to listen on a specific port and automatically stack SSL and Telnet on top when the connection comes in, and you are not informed until everything is ready. A very important feature of gensio is that it makes establishing encrypted and authenticated connections much easier than without it. Beyond basic key management, it's really no harder than TCP or anything else. It offers extended flexibility for controlling the authentication process if needed. It's really easy to use. Note that the gensio(5) man page has more details on individual gensio types. Fedora Account System Username: heffer Notes: 1. The release on the SRPM is -3. I built it in my local Git repository using fedpkg and that repository has 3 commits. It will automatically revert to -1 once imported to dist-git. 2. You will encounter the following rpmlint errors / warnings: gensio.spec: W: patch-not-applied - This is due to a bug in rpmlint: https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmlint/issues/1074, patches are applied in %forgeautosetup gensio.x86_64: E: missing-call-to-setgroups-before-setuid /usr/sbin/gtlsshd - This is technically a non-issue, see https://github.com/cminyard/gensio/issues/59 3. You will encounter unversioned so-files in the package's libexecdir. These are plugins specific to the library. Nothing but the library is supposed to load or link against them. There are also the native Python 3 modules which have unversioned so-files. This is specific to how Python and Swig operate. 4. Patches are, as can be seen by their URL, already all upstream and should be in the next release. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
