now that we have a ppc64le slaves in jenkins we can start building pkg for it and deploy it to resources.ovirt.org.
this ticket will track all pkg progress:
qemu-kvm - currently pending gluster builds for ppc64le, ETA - next week
vdsm
ioprocess
anything else that is not noarch which we need to build?
Looking at the vdsm.spec:
mom should be noarch
python-cpopen, but should be there already I guess
python-pthreading should be noarch
ovirt-vmconsole is noarch
So everything else should be ok
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/61629/ - support to build VDSM per arch - verified to be running the correct jobs on each slave per arch, but mock fails and requires adding support for more arch,
handled in this patch:
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/61735/
Pending centos tickets to allow build vdsm ppc64le, ioprocess was already built and deployed.
our patches:
https://gerrit.ovirt.org/#/c/62123/5

VDSM EL7 PPC64LE is now built using the new patches:
http://jenkins.ovirt.org/job/vdsm_master_build-artifacts-el7-ppc64le/
So the fix is pending merge from VDSM maintainers:
We have working VDSM ppc64le builds for master.
If any more issues will rise new ticket with specifics will be opened.
