Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Thanks for the reminder! From my perspective, we should indeed end CentOS 7 build support. I will initiate a discussion email later this week to talk about this. Best, Shilun Fan. On 2025/07/06 19:28:40 Cheng Pan wrote: > Looks like no one objects removing CentOS 7 support for trunk (3.5), > do

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Looks like no one objects removing CentOS 7 support for trunk (3.5), do we need a VOTE to move this forward? Thanks, Cheng Pan On 2025/03/18 05:18:28 Istvan Toth wrote: > Thanks Steve. > > I agree that it's time to move off Java 8. > > The *trunk* and *branch-3.4* CIs are still broken because o

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Thanks Steve. I agree that it's time to move off Java 8. The *trunk* and *branch-3.4* CIs are still broken because of the original issue, so there is also a short-term problem that needs to be fixed. If we're not ready to drop Centos7 from CI right now, my PR

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

I think we really need to push ahead on a 3.5 release for this stuff and for java 17. I'm doing the new thirdparty jar once I've got the docker building *and signing* it...I'm having to do the build in EC2 as it doesn't seem to work on my arm64 laptop right now. Then ahmar can start the 3.4.2 rel

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Thanks everyone for contributing. To summarize the discussion on YARN-11794: We can fix the build on 3.4 by using an older plugin binary (which does not have any changes related to the generated code compared to the current one), or by committing the generated Java code. Shilun Fan and I prefer th

"Support for any OS SHOULD NOT be dropped without first being documented as deprecated for a full major release and MUST NOT be dropped without first being deprecated for at least a full minor release." I am not aware of any distro being explicitly deprecated by Hadoop, I don't think that the inte

Istvan, thank you for working on restoring build support on CentOS 7 on branch-3.4, let’s keep the high level discussion on the mailing list and implementation details on the PR directly. Thanks, Cheng Pan > On Mar 12, 2025, at 16:47, Istvan Toth wrote: > > "Support for any OS SHOULD NOT be

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Hi Chris, thank you for detailed explanation, now I see the exact issue after reading the description of YARN-11794. I have full confidence in Java cross-platform nature, but given that Hadoop involves some native code, and requires some native libraries to build and run, I'm afraid I must buil

Re: Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

I'm adding Cheng Pan, who expressed concerns here: https://github.com/apache/hadoop/pull/7493#issuecomment-2710815286 Cheng, this is a build time issue. If it doesn't impact runtime, then is it still a problem for you? I can imagine it might still be an impact if you need to make a custom patched

Dropping support for builds on Centos 7

Hi, As reported in YARN-11794 , building Hadoop on Centos 7 has been broken for some time, and I don't see an easy way to fix it. I propose removing Centos 7 from the supported build platforms, and removing the CentOs 7 precommit tests from Jenkins HADOOP-19489 . Note that this is a build isse,
