    Description

      Since an AIX machine is available, this needs to be added to Buildbot. Docker is not available for AIX, so the buildbot process needs to run directly on the machine.

      This is a new addition compared to the old buildbot

              Tried to install the buildbot-worker python package but there is a problem with libssl for which I haven't found yet a solution.

              Successfully installed buildbot worker on the AIX machine and defined an AIX buildbot build. The MariaDB deps need to be installed next on the AIX machine, before turning on the builder.

            Pulling up notes from emails:

            Dependencies (runtime at least) http://www-frec.bull.com/pkg?id=5875

            RPM build dependencies https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/mariadb/blob/master/f/mariadb.spec#_198
            so hopefully most of those map up.

            very obvious linux dependencies like systemd/systemtap can obviously be dropped. Not sure if libaio is cross platform

            latest ssl https://www-01.ibm.com/marketing/iwm/iwm/web/pickUrxNew.do?source=aixbp
            We might have to run 'updtvpkg' after updating openssl.

            So wpars are the AIX forms of docker. Two types, system, which is like VM, and application, which is like docker.

            Looked up wpars a bit more. wparexec is the main executable for application WPARS. Best documentation I've found so far is the man page.

            It requires root to execute (bottom of man page), /etc/security/privcmds has some privs than can be used if RBAC is used to grant bb addition admin privs on creating wpars, so having the aix.wpar.owner accessauth (https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_aix_72/security/rbac_using.html).

            /etc/security/privcmds

            		 
            /usr/sbin/wparexec:
            		 
                    accessauths = aix.wpar.owner
            		 
                    innateprivs = PV_AZ_ROOT,PV_DAC_O,PV_DAC_R,PV_DAC_W,PV_DAC_X,PV_FS_CHOWN,PV_PROC_PRIV
            		 
                    inheritprivs = PV_AZ_CHECK,PV_AZ_ROOT,PV_DAC_O,PV_DAC_R,PV_DEV_CONFIG,PV_DEV_LOAD,PV_FS_CHOWN,PV_KER_ACCT,PV_KER_DR,PV_KER_WLM,PV_KER_WPAR,PV_NET_CNTL,PV_NET_PORT,PV_PROC_PRIV,P
            		 
            V_PROC_SIG,PV_SU_UID,PV_TCB
            		 
                    euid = 0
            		 
                    egid = 0
            		 
                    secflags = FSF_EPS

            Its filesystem is shared with the host. Its network and process are isolationed. Options exist to:

            • create templates
            • control mountpoints (-M)
