I believe the SPECS check failures are because I have not uploaded the release artifacts to the spec store, jslobodzian was going to point me to instructions on how to do that. |
OpenVMM is a modular, cross-platform virtual machine monitor written in Rust. This package ships the OpenVMM host binary, which runs virtual machines on Linux via KVM or the Microsoft Hypervisor. Source0 is the archive GitHub generates for the openvmm-v<version> tag. Upstream publishes a single release asset, openvmm-<version>-vendor.tar.gz, containing the vendored crate sources and the cargo_config source replacement written by cargo vendor, so the package builds offline. The package requires rust >= 1.95, which Azure Linux 3.0 does not ship yet, so it does not build until the distribution toolchain advances.

Here are the instructions https://dev.azure.com/mariner-org/mariner/_wiki/wikis/mariner.wiki/1284/Source-Tar-Publishing , but I would leave that as the last step before merging (in case there's a need to amend the release sources) |

Adds a package for OpenVMM, a modular, cross-platform virtual machine monitor written in Rust. Ships the
openvmmhost binary.Important
Draft: this does not build on Azure Linux 3.0 yet. OpenVMM requires rust 1.95 and the distribution ships 1.90. A toolchain bump is in motion, and this is ready to move out of draft once it lands.
Built offline from the upstream release: the tag archive plus the vendor archive uploaded as a release asset.
Change Log
openvmm0.1.0Does this affect the toolchain?
NO
Test Methodology
Built in an
mcr.microsoft.com/azurelinux/base/core:3.0container from the published assets, supplying a 1.95 toolchain in place of the distribution's. Producesopenvmm-0.1.0-1.azl3.x86_64.rpm, which installs withtdnfand reportsopenvmm 0.1.0.A toolkit build has not been run, as it cannot pass until the toolchain lands.
