@opna2608:matrix.orgPuna

would it be acceptable to raise the timeout on the functional2 testsuite to like, triple its current value (300 seconds)? my ppc64 hardware is nowhere close to completing that in time when building lixPackageSets.latest.lix in Nixpkgs

lix> 80/80 installcheck - lix:functional2                                             OK              712.47s   1118 subtests passed

@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusShould it be sent to nixpkgs or do you need it on the HEAD builds as well?13:26:49
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusI'd also say that a conditional timeout based on the architecture doesn't surprise me at all13:27:02
@opna2608:matrix.orgPunawell the machine is sadly 21 years old, so that's prolly the main reason for it taking so long… just the cheapest available ppc64 hardware13:28:29
@opna2608:matrix.orgPunai'm fine with w/e, would just like to avoid carrying a patch for this in my branch forever13:29:56
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusplease send it first to nixpkgs if that's what you are using with a conditional to keep the short timeout for fast architectures and a default slow timeouts for others architectures13:30:19
@raitobezarius:matrix.orgraitobezariusput me reviewer and i will take care of it13:30:22
@opna2608:matrix.orgPuna well, a more recent POWER machine bought from IBM (or prolly smth from raptor too) would likely be fine with the current timeout. it's not really an issue with the architecture, just with me not being made out of money to afford fancy new machines :)
but can discuss that on the pull request ig

@grimmauld:m.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all) @Rutile you do functional2, you get my complaints :P
> 80/80 installcheck - lix:functional2 TIMEOUT 300.28s killed by signal 15 SIGTERM
Just ran into a test timeout on my shitty overloaded aarch64 builder. It really did not appreciate building kernel and testing functional2 at the same time. What is your take on making the timeout more lenient? I understand why there is a timeout, but i am willing to wait longer than just 5min when i tell that underpowered box to rebuild itself from source over night.

@grimmauld:m.grimmauld.deGrimmauld (any/all)Ah oops11:41:42
@rootile:flausch.socialRutileThis should get documented in the issue tracker tho '^^12:34:16
@opna2608:matrix.orgPunaconsidering the above, should i add ARM (prolly in general) to the condition for the raised timeout in the pull request?12:43:17
@opna2608:matrix.orgPuna* considering the above, should i add ARM (prolly in general) to the condition for the raised timeout in the pull request? or drop the condition entirely?12:45:27
