croelandtHello! Glance recently updated a periodic job (https://zuul.opendev.org/t/openstack/build/6715d43f216342f09311689de77f9ba6) to use CentOS 10 rather than CentOS 9. The logs (https://storage.gra.cloud.ovh.net/v1/AUTH_dcaab5e32b234d56b626f72581e3644c/zuul_opendev_logs_671/openstack/6715d43f216342f09311689de77f9ba6/job-output.txt) show a failure:  "msg": "[Errno 2] No such file or directory: 13:46
croelandtb'fips-mode-setup'". This is because fips-mode-setup has been removed (see https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RemoveFipsModeSetup). I don't really have the technical knowledge to fix and test this, could anyone take a look and help me out?13:46
fungicroelandt: i don't know if the folks who worked on fips testing hang out in here, but ade_lee drove most of that initially13:48
croelandtyes, I'm trying to figure out who could help and was directed to this channel. I'll try pinging ade_lee, thanks!13:50
fungicroelandt: reading that article, i'd just disable the job for now, sounds like rh doesn't expect rebooting into fips mode post-install to work correctly, so this would probably require custom vm images which isn't feasible for opendev to provide for such a small subset of jobs13:51
fungiunfortunate, but it's probably better if rh just does their own testing of this functionality downstream if they still care strongly about it13:52
croelandtok, interesting14:10
croelandtI'll try to confirm with Ade that there is no simple workaround for this and I'll try to figure out how Red Hat can do this14:10
fungii'm also dubious of the value, personally, seeing as how it's testing parameters specifically required for usa government/military use, and we don't go out of our way to do that for any other countries even though the usa represents a fairly small minority of openstack users and developers14:15
fungiit smacks of hegemonic imperialism for a regime that is quickly becoming distrusted by the rest of the planet14:16
JayFit is arguable that you could no longer trust the FIPS standard to evolve in an "actually more secure against everyone"16:40
