 Lily Foster | Regardless the point being it would require an additional thing on our part to start GHAs on PRs created by our backport workflow | 22:02:22 |
| Lily Foster | We actually don't run actions at all even on manual PRs iirc since for some reason we decided to exclude PRs to release branches on our github actions.... (ofborg still runs but again it just gets queued at the webhook and takes a while to actually start eval depending on queue size) | 22:03:55 |

 @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | is it possible to increase the timeout for a specific (platform, package) pair? polkadot has been timing out on darwin for quite a while:
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/244483/checks?check_run_id=15298342100
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/239325/checks?check_run_id=14499669290
- https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/257419/checks?check_run_id=17145741624
| 09:07:39 |
| K900 | meta.timeout | 09:08:19 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | huh interesting, where is it defined in nixpkgs? can't see it in lib/meta.nix | 09:09:58 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | here?
https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/tree/4a359e2106bc1eb23d9c99837e8f1ecb90453f3e/pkgs/stdenv/generic/check-meta.nix#L291 | 09:11:33 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | i assume it represents minutes? | 09:11:46 |
| K900 | Seconds IIRC? | 09:15:01 |
 piegames | I hate meta attributes from the bottom of my heart | 09:16:52 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | In reply to @piegames:matrix.org
I hate meta attributes from the bottom of my heart why? | 09:18:00 |
| piegames | Because they are under- or undocumented, barely checked, and generally an unstructured free-for-all. | 09:21:19 |
| piegames | * Because they are under- or undocumented, barely checked, not discoverable, and generally an unstructured free-for-all. | 09:21:36 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | seems that:
- it's seconds
- hydra sets a default of 10 hrs?
https://github.com/NixOS/hydra/blob/master/src/hydra-eval-jobs/hydra-eval-jobs.cc#L195
| 09:24:28 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | so if i set it to e.g. 2 hours for ofborg i'd actually be lowering relative to the default for hydra? | 09:25:34 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | should this be set to the same value as hydra's 36000? https://github.com/NixOS/ofborg/blob/de415d372959b7e6fc6b2f6c95f0c21e5010348d/config.public.json#L124 | 09:26:53 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | the package only times out on ofborg, so changing meta.timeout doesn't seem like the cleanest solution: https://hydra.nixos.org/job/nixpkgs/trunk/polkadot.aarch64-darwin | 09:43:40 |
| @asymmetric:matrix.dapp.org.uk | i wonder if alternatively we could tell ofborg not to build the package on certain archs at all. rn it's just wasting precious cycles | 09:45:03 |

 raitobezarius | badPlatforms ? | 12:57:56 |
 7c6f434c | The question seems to be distinguishing «broken there», «don't build on Hydra for resource reasons including space» and «will timeout on ofBorg» | 12:59:37 |
| Lily Foster | Yeah there's a meta attribute for controlling hydra platforms, but there is not for ofborg currently | 13:17:50 |
| Lily Foster | I mean I think ofborg does pure eval, so you could try to detect it and those bad platforms in meta.broken 🙈 | 14:02:21 |
