open[qe-core][ci] git fetch origin master in distri-opensuse perl tests sometimes fails with GnuTLS recv error
0%
Description
Observation¶
@tonyyuan made me aware of it in chat. Although I couldn't see this occur on master, it's failed multiple times in forks with no apparent changes to the GHA workflow. The compile tests fail to fetch from git:
git clone https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst.git
Cloning into 'os-autoinst'...
fatal: unable to access 'https://github.com/os-autoinst/os-autoinst.git/': GnuTLS recv error (-54): Error in the pull function.
make: *** [Makefile:12: prepare] Error 128
Error: Process completed with exit code 2.
I wasn't able to re-produce this in podman run --pull=always --rm -it perldocker/perl-tester:5.26, so it could be an issue specific to GitHub infra.
The offending code is specifically the git fetch origin/master in ci.yml.
Suggestions¶
- Confirm what the fetch is needed for, maybe it could simply be dropped
- Look for relevant upstream issues or report one
- If all else fails, try https://github.com/marketplace/actions/retry-step

Hello Oli, you have moved the ticket to openQa tests and Infrastructure but no label "[..]“ yet. What would be the right label: tools?

Not tools. This is about os-autoinst-distri-opensuse so in the domain of testing related squads, fallback to qe-core

https://github.com/curl/curl/issues/1707 and https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48035434/git-error-rpc-failed-curl-56-gnutls-recv-error-54-error-in-the-pull-functi indicate it'd be either network problem or "use curl with openssl instead" if I read it correctly. But since it's sometimes, it's maybe a network problem and one could try curl with automatic retry option with some delay for example? (if git allows such a thing)

As hinted by Oliver, possibility to also check if https://github.com/marketplace/actions/retry-step could be used to mitigate the problem.
