Comment 2 Jarod Wilson 2016-06-27 20:27:21 UTC
Okay, I've done an initial pass through the spec, and a few things of note to take care of:

1) There's mixed use of both $RPM_BUILD_ROOT and %{buildroot}. These two are equivalent, but it's preferred that you only use one or the other consistently through the spec.

2) The COPYING file these days needs to be listed in the spec file under %license, rather than as %doc.

3) Formatting on the changelog entry is slightly off, there should be a space between the initial "*" and the date entry, and the version at the tail end of the line should be version-release, i.e. "0.5.223-1".

4) Fedora guidelines complain about unversioned library files dropped straight into %libdir, though putting a .a file into a -devel-static package seems to be the norm for all rdma hardware-specific libibverbs-based driver libs like this, so I think we can leave that as-is.

5) the Source: url to the tarball is a bit off, it says ./downloads/i40iw/., but it should be ./downloads/libi40iw/. instead.

6) the file dropped under libibverbs.d/ should probably be marked at %config, as you can edit the file to alter behavior, and don't want that overwritten by a package update. I've looked at another libibverbs driver or two, and they're done as %config as well.

7) The spec says license GPL/BSD, and looking at the various sources, that seems accurate, as I see both GPLv2 and GPLv3, and various BSD license text in the source. However, the COPYING file looks to only mention GPLv2. May need multiple license files here to cover all cases. Also, rpmlint complains that "GPL/BSD" isn't a valid value for the License: field. Looking at https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging:LicensingGuidelines I think "GPLv2+ and BSD" or "GPLv2+ or BSD" might be appropriate.

8) BuildRequires on libibverbs-devel are not versioned, which may well be just fine, but I'd like to double-check that there isn't some minimal version required for proper libi40iw support. (I seem to recall the hfi1 bits requiring libibverbs 1.3.0 or later, thus why I ask).

9) BuildRoot doesn't actually need to be explicitly defined, and the preference of late is actually that we let RPM internals figure it out, so the BuildRoot: ... line could actually be removed from the spec. Not a hard requirement though, particularly if looking to support much older versions of RPM in older distributions with the same spec.

Most of this is pretty trivial to fix up, but the one that really needs the most effort is probably the license bit, to make sure we can get through legal with the proper licensing documented here.

Comment 3 Jarod Wilson 2016-06-29 15:10:33 UTC
Some further reading on the licensing issue and a bit of back-channel discussion, and what I now believe to be the thing to do for #7 is "License: GPLv2 or BSD", rename COPYING to LICENSE-GPL and include a new LICENSE-BSD file so the text of both licenses is easily distributable with the binaries. The only GPLv3+ files are config/config.*, which aren't part of the distributed binaries, and License: is only in reference to distributed binaries, so no reference to GPLv3+ is required here.

Comment 4 Jarod Wilson 2016-06-29 15:29:43 UTC
Just let me know when there's an updated package I can look over, I think we should be pretty close once the initial review pass notes are addressed.

The package is updated. The new version libi40iw-0.5.224.tar.gz is available at the URL provided above. All the changes can be viewed in the public git repository.

Using fedora-review's template, with notes added after anything marked as !/fail:

Package Review
==============

Legend:
[x] = Pass, [!] = Fail, [-] = Not applicable, [?] = Not evaluated
[ ] = Manual review needed


Issues:
=======
- Development (unversioned) .so files in -devel subpackage, if present.
  Note: Unversioned so-files directly in %_libdir.
  See: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Packaging/Guidelines#DevelPackages

Waiving this issue, as this is the norm for libibverbs plugins.

===== MUST items =====

[x]: Package does not contain kernel modules.
[x]: Package contains no static executables.
[x]: Header files in -devel subpackage, if present.

     other legal requirements as defined in the legal section of Packaging
     Guidelines.
[x]: License field in the package spec file matches the actual license.
     Note: Checking patched sources after %prep for licenses. Licenses
     found: "MIT/X11 (BSD like)", "GPL (v2 or later)", "Unknown or
     generated". 16 files have unknown license. Detailed output of
     licensecheck in /home/jwilson/review-libi40iw/licensecheck.txt

Present in the spec, which is apparently no longer okay. This is actually news to me.

[x]: Sources contain only permissible code or content.
[!]: %config files are marked noreplace or the reason is justified.
     Note: No (noreplace) in %config /etc/libibverbs.d/i40iw.driver

I missed that this maybe should be marked %config(noreplace), but will also accept justification for why it shouldn't be. If it isn't, i40iw.driver modified by the user becomes i40iw.driver.rpmorig, I believe.

[x]: Each %files section contains %defattr if rpm < 4.4
     Note: %defattr present but not needed
[-]: Package contains desktop file if it is a GUI application.

     (~1MB) or number of files.
     Note: Documentation size is 10240 bytes in 1 files.
[!]: Package complies to the Packaging Guidelines

Just a few little things to fix up as noted in this comment.

[x]: Package successfully compiles and builds into binary rpms on at least
     one supported primary architecture.
[x]: Package installs properly.
[x]: Rpmlint is run on all rpms the build produces.
     Note: There are rpmlint messages (see attachment).
[x]: If (and only if) the source package includes the text of the
     license(s) in its own file, then that file, containing the text of the
     license(s) for the package is included in %license.
[x]: Package requires other packages for directories it uses.
[x]: Package must own all directories that it creates.
[x]: Package does not own files or directories owned by other packages.
[x]: All build dependencies are listed in BuildRequires, except for any
     that are listed in the exceptions section of Packaging Guidelines.
[x]: Package uses either %{buildroot} or $RPM_BUILD_ROOT
[x]: Macros in Summary, %description expandable at SRPM build time.

     provided in the spec URL.
[x]: Spec file name must match the spec package %{name}, in the format
     %{name}.spec.
[x]: Static libraries in -static or -devel subpackage, providing -devel if
     present.
     Note: Package has .a files: libi40iw-devel-static.
[x]: File names are valid UTF-8.
[x]: Packages must not store files under /srv, /opt or /usr/local

===== SHOULD items =====

Generic:
[!]: Buildroot is not present
     Note: Buildroot: present but not needed

Fine to leave it if so desired.

[!]: Package has no %clean section with rm -rf %{buildroot} (or
     $RPM_BUILD_ROOT)
     Note: %clean present but not required

Fine to leave it if so desired.

[x]: If the source package does not include license text(s) as a separate
     file from upstream, the packager SHOULD query upstream to include it.
[x]: Final provides and requires are sane (see attachments).
[!]: Fully versioned dependency in subpackages if applicable.
     Note: No Requires: %{name}%{?_isa} = %{version}-%{release} in
     libi40iw-devel-static , libi40iw-debuginfo

I'm not entirely familiar with the %{?_isa} bit, but this would be a trivial addition, and won't negatively impact any case where _isa isn't defined, thanks to the ? prefix.

[-]: Package functions as described.

I don't actually have the hardware to test with myself, but I assume it does work. :)

[x]: Latest version is packaged.
[x]: Package does not include license text files separate from upstream.
[-]: Description and summary sections in the package spec file contains
     translations for supported Non-English languages, if available.
[x]: Package should compile and build into binary rpms on all supported
     architectures.
[-]: %check is present and all tests pass.
[x]: Packages should try to preserve timestamps of original installed
     files.
[x]: Reviewer should test that the package builds in mock.
[x]: No file requires outside of /etc, /bin, /sbin, /usr/bin, /usr/sbin.
[x]: Packager, Vendor, PreReq, Copyright tags should not be in spec file
[x]: Uses parallel make %{?_smp_mflags} macro.
[x]: Sources can be downloaded from URI in Source: tag
[x]: SourceX is a working URL.
[x]: Spec use %global instead of %define unless justified.

===== EXTRA items =====

Generic:
[x]: Rpmlint is run on debuginfo package(s).
     Note: No rpmlint messages.
[x]: Rpmlint is run on all installed packages.
     Note: There are rpmlint messages (see attachment).
[x]: Large data in /usr/share should live in a noarch subpackage if package
     is arched.
[x]: Spec file according to URL is the same as in SRPM.

Comment 7 tatyana 2016-07-06 22:16:04 UTC
[!]: %config files are marked noreplace or the reason is justified.
     Note: No (noreplace) in %config /etc/libibverbs.d/i40iw.driver

The file /etc/libibverbs.d/i40iw.driver contains the driver name to be used by ib verbs and is not intended to be edited by the user. This file stays the same in different library versions (since the driver name is the same). If the file is somehow modified by the user, it can cause issues and it is preferred to be overwritten by the next libi40iw install.

We are working on fixes for the other items on the list.

Comment 8 tatyana 2016-07-07 19:50:16 UTC
The package is updated. The new version libi40iw-0.5.225.tar.gz is available at the URL provided above. All the changes can be viewed in the public git repository.

Hm. The prior version built in mock just fine when I ran fedora-review, but this latest version fails with the following error:

(CDPATH="${ZSH_VERSION+.}:" && cd . && /bin/sh /builddir/build/BUILD/libi40iw-0.5.225/config/missing autoheader)

         You should only need it if you modified 'acconfig.h' or

         The 'autoheader' program is part of the GNU Autoconf package:

Comment 10 tatyana 2016-07-07 21:07:27 UTC
Assuming the auto-generated files got messed up, I rebuilt the package. I didn't change the version and there aren't source changes. Could you let me know if the issue above is resolved.

Yes, thank you, I'm getting through the build just fine now, more detailed review notes forthcoming.

It's my non-RH login that actually has Fedora Package Review Approval and Sponsorship privs, so setting fedora-review flag to + now. Do you have an account in the Fedora Account System yet? Once you do, I can officially sponsor you as a new Fedora packager (if you're not already?).

This isn't a "MUST" from my reading of things.

> > %clean
> > rm -rf %{buildroot}
> MUST be dropped

This is under "SHOULD" in the packaging guidelines, not "MUST".

> > make %{?_smp_mflags}

Potayto, potahto.

> > %setup -q -n %{name}-%{version}
> COULD be changed to %setup -q or to %autosetup

I did miss this one, could easily be just %setup -q, since '%{name}-%{version}' is already the default name things are expected to be in, but I wouldn't consider this a blocking issue. Easily fixed in the next bump.

> > BuildRoot: %{_tmppath}/%{name}-%{version}-%{release}-root-%(%{__id_u} -n)
> MUST be dropped

Also a "SHOULD", not a "MUST".

Take a look at every other libibverbs hardware driver (libocrdma, libcxgb4, libmlx5, etc), this is how all of them look. This is following precedent.

What is your FAS username? I'm struggling to find it at the moment. :)

Comment 18 tatyana 2016-07-08 14:24:17 UTC

Ah, wasn't in the packager group yet, and I was apparently only looking within that group. I've added you to the group and sponsored you now.

I believe the next step is:

https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Join_the_package_collection_maintainers?rd=PackageMaintainers/Join#Add_Package_to_Source_Code_Management_.28SCM.29_system_and_Set_Owner

Should be able to request a new package there, with you as the maintainer. Please set me (FAS account name jwilson) as a co-maintainer.

Comment 20 tatyana 2016-07-08 17:31:49 UTC
I submitted a new package request: 
•user: tatyana request package: libi40iw-0.5.225-1.el7.src.rpm on branch master

I am not sure if branch master was the right one.

Comment 21 tatyana 2016-07-08 17:40:30 UTC
Apparently, I need to fix the ticket number - should I send another package request. Is there a way to edit the first one?

Just gave it a try myself, I think the issue was the package name:

•user: jwilson request package: libi40iw on branch master
•user: jwilson request package: libi40iw on branch f24
•user: jwilson request package: libi40iw on branch f23

I don't see anything about fixing a ticket number yet anyway...

Yeah, that too is an issue.
I am trying to submit a new package request, but when I enter the ticket number = bugzilla id = 1350029 and click sync, I get "Review not approved by the assignee of the ticket jarodwilson"

Comment 24 Gwyn Ciesla 2016-07-08 18:02:30 UTC
Package request has been approved: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/pkgdb/package/rpms/libi40iw

Comment 25 tatyana 2016-07-08 18:03:50 UTC
Now the sync is working. Which collection should I choose?

Comment 26 tatyana 2016-07-08 18:21:48 UTC
Ok, I see the package request has been approved. Thank you.

Comment 27 Jarod Wilson 2016-07-08 18:28:31 UTC
Ah, the problem was that the bug was still assigned to my RH login instead of the one I have on file with the Fedora package database. I'm updating some permissions on the package now, so you can build for Fedora 24 (just released a week or two ago, iirc) and Fedora 23 as well.

Comment 28 Igor Gnatenko 2016-11-20 09:10:17 UTC
ping?

Comment 29 tatyana 2016-11-22 19:57:30 UTC
I thought that this package has been released and no further action was required. I don't know who needs to update the bug status.

I don't see any builds of this package in Fedora. So you need to:
1. import spec and oter stuff into git repo
2. build in koji
3. submit updates in bodhi

You can always ask someone who sponsored you into packagers group as it's his duty to help.

Thank you for the information.

Just to clarify this package was released as part of RedHat 7.3. There is another libi40iw bug report (id=1381746) which targets RehHat 7.4. We are still working on preparing patches for the new libi40iw package. Are you referring to a new package for RedHat 7.4?

No, this is parallel to Red Hat Enterprise Linux work, libi40iw should also be built for Fedora. This particular bug was to get the package into Fedora, where it needs to be accepted before it goes into RHEL, we're just missing the final step where it's actually built in Fedora.

Comment 33 Mattia Verga 2021-06-10 09:20:04 UTC
So, this package was never imported in Fedora.

Tatyana, are you still interested in importing and building for Fedora, or should we properly retire it?

Comment 34 Mattia Verga 2021-07-10 11:30:25 UTC
I've received no response, so I've filed a request to releng to orphan the package: https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10205

Comment 35 Mattia Verga 2021-07-12 16:05:29 UTC
Package orphaned, closing as DEADREVIEW
