Port SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH patterns from xcat-core to all xcat-dep build
scripts. RPM and Debian packages now produce identical output given
the same Gitepoch timestamp, regardless of build host or time.
EL (RPM) changes:
- mockbuild-all.pl: --build-timestamp flag, deterministic run_id,
tar --sort/--owner/--group/--mtime, createrepo --revision
- All mockbuild.pl: SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH cascade (CLI > Gitepoch > git > time),
deterministic mock config with SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH in chroot env,
RPM macros for timestamp clamping and fixed buildhost
- goconserver: -trimpath -buildvcs=false, canonical rpmbuild path
- xnba: canonical rpmbuild path
- syslinux: ZERO_AR_DATE=1 in mock env
Ubuntu (Debian) changes:
- All make_deb.sh: SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH fallback from Gitepoch
- goconserver: deterministic SNAP_TS and changelog from epoch,
-trimpath -buildvcs=false in debian/rules
- syslinux: -fdebug-prefix-map for path-independent debug info
- build-apt-repo.sh: gzip -n, Release Date: from SOURCE_DATE_EPOCH
Verified: 31/33 package artifacts produce identical SHA256 hashes
across independent builds. 2 syslinux sub-packages (devel,
debugsource) have known limitations from upstream build system.
Create debian/ directory and make_deb.sh for building goconserver
as a .deb package. Clones upstream, removes etcd backend, builds
with CGO_ENABLED=0 for static linking, packages via dpkg-buildpackage.
Tested on Ubuntu 22.04, 24.04, and 26.04.
Auto-detection used OS ID directly (e.g. almalinux+epel-10-ppc64le)
but mock configs use short forms (alma+epel-10-ppc64le). Add
resolve_mock_cfg helper that tries the full ID first, then falls
back to known short forms.
The smoke test previously required the IPMI probe to fail, which
breaks on any build host with a BMC. Allow rc=0 when hardware is
present; only fail on unexpected error output.
Clone goconserver from upstream master (v0.3.3), initialize Go
modules, and compile both server and client binaries with
CGO_ENABLED=0 for static linking. The etcd storage backend is
removed before building because its dependencies are incompatible
with modern Go modules; xCAT only uses file-based console storage.
v0.3.3 removes RC4 and 3DES ciphers from the TLS configuration.
