- how are the EFIKAs used?
All four (or 3 in practice) are currently connected to an suse internal copy of the Open Build Service system that rebuilds 1:1 openSUSE:Factory:ARM on native hardware without qemu. we use this for finding packages /build differences that trigger due to our usage of qemu. we can't connect them to the external build service yet due to policy restrictions (must not run code in chroot for OBS, as chroot is considered unsafe). looking at the options, we either have to set them up to build only "trusted" packages in the OBS (which requires a capability system that does not yet exist), or find a way to confine them further. Unfortunately one of the 4 machines is unstable and crashes every 3-4 hours hard. I had no success in finding the cause of that, as the identical setup works on the other machines just fine. I have no real HDMI capable monitor nor the ability to connect a serial console to it (or no time to dig out how to do that) so I don't know what the cause is. As only one of the 4 machines has this massive stability issue I suspect a hardware issue though. the other 3 machines are building happily along. I've connected external storage to them to have enough capacity for swapping and for build root setup, and it happily builds along around 200 packages in 24 hours. However, some of the bigger packages just fail due to OOm kills, as 512MB ram is not enough anymore for some of them , but the rest works almost as fast as the qemu based setup in OBS at the moment.
