June 2018 - Dev - Clearlinux.Org

by Sven Hartrumpf

Hi all. Does Clear Linux support running binaries for the x32 ABI? If I look at the following line # CONFIG_X86_X32 is not set in https://github.com/clearlinux-pkgs/linux-lts/blob/master/config , it seems to be disabled. For many applications, x32 clearly outperforms i386 and x86-64, e.g. (for functional programming): https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/chicken-users/2015-09/msg00000.html https://sympa.inria.fr/sympa/arc/bigloo/2016-12/msg00015.html In the long run, also compiling x32 binaries could be an important performance option for Clear Linux. Ciao Sven

QT avx2 autospec changes

by Douglas, William

Hi all, Looking at https://github.com/clearlinux/autospec/pull/175 we are considering how to best integrate this kind of feature. Thiago brought up the idea of a script that could do mv and could be generic for different build systems that could live in autospec. I liked that idea but does anybody have other thoughts or do they think the current proposed patch is better for our needs? William

Couple of questions regarding Clear Linux container

by VanCutsem, Geoffroy

Hi folks, I am building a Clear Linux-based container that includes some dev tools in it. There is a couple of behaviours that puzzle me however: 1. The latest update it sees is 21520 (which is from end of March). Is this related to the format bump (from 24 in 21520 to 25 in 21530)? If true, can someone post a newer base container on Docker Hub so one can get the latest and greatest version of it? 2. When I build a container, include some additional bundles and update it, it fails to update the system (see more details below) unless I use the "-b" option. I thought that swupd would automatically detect that it's running in a container. Is this not true (or is it only true for newer versions that are not available on Docker Hub)? Thanks, Geoffroy The Dockerfile is pretty basic and simply add a couple of bundles and then attempts to update the system. First lines of the Dockerfile: # Build container based on Clearlinux FROM clearlinux:base RUN swupd bundle-add os-clr-on-clr python3-basic RUN swupd update <snip> When $ sudo docker build -t clearlinux -f Dockerfile.clearlinux .
