Description Miroslav Franc 2013-04-03 14:23:09 UTC
Description of problem:

As part of beakerlib lives function called rlGetArch.  The problem is the result you'll get from it does not always match the actual architecture we support.  There is concept of primary and secondary architecture on RHEL.  For example on ppc64 machine with rhel5 the primary architecture is ppc and secondary ppc64, on rhel6 and rhel7 with the same machine it's the other way around.  Similar problems are with x86_64.  On rhel5 the secondary architecture is i386, but on rhel6 it's i686.  There's no simple command to query this piece of information within the test.  Would it be possible to implement rlGetPrimaryArch for us to be able to get string describing primary architecture and similar thing for secondary arch?  It would somewhat simplify writing of our tests.

Agreed. Also possibly a nice item for some new hire's 90day/intern goals :-)

Comment 2 Petr Muller 2013-04-09 11:15:07 UTC
I think such RHEL-related stuff would make a great BeakerLib library. I would even consider dumping the rlGetDistroRelease there.
