From a quick grep of 24K Fedora specs for "ExcludeArch" / "ExclusiveArch":

  • Explicit exclude (ExcludeArch mentions riscv64): 4 pkgs
  • Implicit exclude (ExclusiveArch is missing riscv64): 1024 pkgs

Investigate the packages with ExclusiveArch that is omitting `riscv64.

During my tests, I got some packages built:

  • cpuinfo
  • crash
  • libvpd
  • libvpl
  • orthorobot
  • pdbg
  • perl-Dumbbench
  • perl-Parse-DMIDecode
  • playonlinux
  • powerstat
  • python-cryptography
  • qemu-sanity-check

Not tested them on real hardware, not checked does it make sense.

Looked at crashlib/folly/fbthrift.

folly in f43 is built with old libdwarf so it wants /usr/include/libdwarf-0/ directory while current libdwarf keeps headers in /usr/include/libdwarf-2/ dir. Discussed it with maintainer (Michael Lind) and he told that folly and fbthrift are going to be orphaned instead.

crashlib will bundle both folly and fbthrift soon.

Dropped ExclusiveArch for tdlib: https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/tdlib/pull-request/5 as all Fedora architectures have more than 16GB ram in builders nowadays.

RISC-V port has some 8GB builders but also have 16-32GB ones and schedule high memory use there.

This file lists 1064 packages with their ExclusiveArch values. I plan to work on it to turn it into a table with properly organized columns and status field.

The Global Extensible Open Power Manager (geopm) packages (geopmd, libgeopm, libgeopmd, python-geompy) built fine on riscv64.

Mailed maintainer as those packages are buildable also on aarch64 and ppc64le (fail on s390x).
