IC-OS Verification

To build and verify the IC-OS disk image, run:

# From https://github.com/dfinity/ic#verifying-releases
sudo apt-get install -y curl && curl --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 -sSLO https://raw.githubusercontent.com/dfinity/ic/b0ade55f7e8999e2842fe3f49df163ba224b71a2/ci/tools/repro-check.sh && chmod +x repro-check.sh && ./repro-check.sh -c b0ade55f7e8999e2842fe3f49df163ba224b71a2

The two SHA256 sums printed above from a) the downloaded CDN image and b) the locally built image, must be identical, and must match the SHA256 from the payload of the NNS proposal.

Thanks for this release @DRE-Team!

Presumably these were picked up as GuestOS changes due to the changes to rs/http_endpoints/public/src/lib.rs and other dependencies? This is the same situation as mentioned last week, where it was strongly agreed that this is a problem.

I’m still not clear on what the plan is for solving this:

This is one of the reasons I think that IC engineers should be asked to label their commits with the affected deployment targets (making them mindful of the change logs their commit will show up in, and then consider whether that would be appropriate).

I think there must be a misunderstanding, I’m not talking about taking anything away (I can’t see how it would be ‘worse than what we have now’). If they don’t do this having been asked, that’s a separate issue. Anticipation that they won’t do this despite being asked isn’t a good reason not to just ask… :neutral_face: (they may not be aware that this is an issue - one that you strongly agree with).

For anyone interested @Luka was kind enough to share this with me on slack the other day:

I think it’s really useful to easily see a list of ‘Other changes (either not directly modifying GuestOS or not relevant)’, and a justification for why each commit is not regarded as relevant. Thanks a lot for working on this @Luka!

The boundary node GuestOS commit is interesting, which as I understand it, it regarded as a separate deployment target that is not elected nor deployed via NNS proposal. This commit does stand to affect replica GuestOS indirectly though (by throttling update calls). I’ve posted a question about this here for anyone who’s interested.
