-
Paul - meeting yesterday w/ Joanna and team to outline plan for MISRA
reporting. Got some guidance and Paul is moving forward.
-

-
ACTION: Joanna to put a short email note together on the
agreements in the meeting and send to Paul, and team
-
TFC-313 <https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/TFC-313>: Arm TF-A
member requesting CI staging area to create jobs and TFC JIRA access to
comment on tasks
-
Add Harrison to the Gerrit group. He should be able to submit and
approve new jobs for the Staging CI. He still needs to be
added to a GitHub
team member, Joanna could do it?
-
Plan to update the OpenCI User Guide
<https://tf-ci-users-guide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#brief-description-of-th…>
per Joanna’s request
-
Don created two new tickets based upon 1:1 w/ Hauke
-
TFC-311 and TFC-312
-
Currently at the bottom of the backlog. Consider moving up when
Shebu/Matteo are back
-
Joanna: Yes agree lots of “nuances” in the CI. Hard to prioritise
these things but agree would be helpful
-
Second rack all pieces are in, now preparing to build out
-
AOB
-
TFC-275: Chrome tests. Arthur working on this and has started, but
still in progress as other
-
Anton: LAVA logs accessed by anyone, now closed? TFC-195
-
Agreed to close-not done.

ACTION: Don Re-Open TFC-195, Done
-
ACTION: Anton add a note to TFC-195 explaining the need to reopen

Linaro LKFT has a need for these for kernel upstreaming testing,
would it be possible to swap in some other R0/1s.
-
Joanna to discuss w/ Matteo when he returns.

Minutes
*
FYI; Glen is out next week.
*
Status UpdateArthur - still narrowing down the production issue with
MbedTLS dropping connections. Has been testing with updated JVM,
matching whats on stage as well as adjusting the heap, TCP stack on
the server.
o
*
Paul - Able to use Jenkins Plugin showing some results with that.
Able to see 6000+ issues reported. This is quite large and that
number needs to be tuned/filtered down into something manageable
that ARM is concentrating on. Paul also needs to know the # of
configurations this should be run on. Need more insight from ARM
on that as it may impact performance.
*
Other priorities in Queue
o
Dan Handley sent in a Jira ticket
(https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/TFC-308
<https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/TFC-308>) ClickJacking
vulnerability. Resolved
*
AOB?
o
TF-M flash testing. Start using more FVP vs hardware. Some
issue with log files are not available (see:
https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/TFC-195
<https://linaro.atlassian.net/browse/TFC-195>) need them for FVP
logs.
o
Would migrating things over to FVP cause backups in Queues?
This could be a phase in issue. Doing it on nightly, vs per
patch. Team should be aware of this happening as they may see
queues start to back up.
o
Don, met with Hauke. Going to create a few tickets. Looking at
this https://tf.validation.linaro.org/scheduler/
<https://tf.validation.linaro.org/scheduler/>it was hard to know
what tests were running on what board, and some of the
descriptions was pretty cryptic. Don will log a few tickets on
this issue.
o
Summary of F2F meeting w/ TF & Linaro Systems team. Discussion
on potential CI infrastructure upgrades, Toolchains,
resourcing. Joanna has interest in other more recent FVP
models, beta state (early availability) and would like to see
about getting some of this working. The access should be
available to the testing, but not available to the general public.

have the meetings and address any issue.
* Status Update
o Arthur
+ Working on TFC-129 mbedtls Windows build node in Production.
Various debugging found an error in the logs -
"java.io.EOFException". Looking into this
o Paul
+ expanding the Prototype job; its now a jenkins matrix job
for 2 TF-A configurations. This can be extended to more
configurations and will need to get feedback from ARM on how
many configurations will be needed based on the performance.
+ Worked with Kelly to make sure that AWS-based private docker
repo works as expected, and switched the prototype to it
o Further investigation on ECLAIR Jenkins plugin - investigation
with Bugseng. Getting Java Exceptions, need to debug.

Arthur
-
MbedTLS; After the Production Upgrade, Windows build nodes still
have issues. Currently looking at other debug techniques - disabling
the ping thread
<https://wiki.jenkins.io/display/JENKINS/Remoting+issue>. Note
problem does not occur on Stage. As part of debug, a rebuilt AMI that
removed Windows defender has helped performance.

TFC-75: Repositories synchronization based on Gerrit topics; need
1+ week to resolve

Paul

Paul - “Over the last week, I worked on prototyping an actual
Docker image to run ECLAIR processing in our Jenkins (on
staging). My focus
was trying to go as "deep" as possible,trying to identify any possible
issues or contingencies. I'm glad to report that it worked
largely well, in
articular, there was no further issues with the license
server, everything
works as expected (at least by me). Already somewhat cleaned
up version of
my prototype job is available at:
https://ci.staging.trustedfirmware.org/job/pfalcon-tf-a-eclair/ “

Blocked. Need to go back to Linaro management to get progress
as this was
being addressed at a higher level.
Hello All,
The server will be offline to start a maintenance window on 2022-07-22 at
20:00 UTC. Jenkins will be put into "Shutdown Mode" at 2022-07-22 18:00
UTC to stop accepting new jobs and allow executing tasks to complete.
This downtime is required to add a plugin to Jenkins to support new
functionality required for a service being developed. The version of
Jenkins and the plugins currently being run will not be changing.
Emails will be sent prior to and following the upgrade to provide status
reports.
Start: 2022 07-22 18:00 UTC

MISRA Enablement
-
Licence server up and running. Allows Paul to leverage a licence
locally to advance on his work. It’s quite easy to break. It has secure
storage - if tampered, it breaks the licence server. Requires Bugseng to
fix when it breaks. No security - open to internet.
-
Next steps - Paul starting to get Jenkins agent images built.
Eclair should be enabled on staging server and Paul can then
move forward.

Killing TF-A jobs and the loads get higher. The FVP jobs are working
ok, but there are jobs that are jamming up the queue. The queue is going
down, but pretty slowly.

Seeing a lot of jobs, not finishing very quickly.
-
Seeing some FVP jobs go into an infinity loop as they have no time
out.
-
Ben will put the queue in maintenance and clear out the jobs.
-
All blockers are currently related to an infrastructure upgrade.
