Re: autopkgtest for security archive



Dear DSA and ftp-master,

The security team inquired [1] if we, the CI team, could support
autopkgtesting of (embargoed) security uploads. We have already
discussed some of the requirements (mostly about secrecy), but with my
questions [2] about the embargoed queue/archive I want the wrong way,
see the reply from the wanna-build team.

So, my questions to you are:

a) Are you indeed the right people to talk to about getting access to
the embargoed queues?

b) If the access is indeed set-upped via IP whitelisting, than I have
the following concern. We are currently running 12 amd64 workers in the
AWS framework. I am typically recreating workers after 60 to 90 days as
we are having issues with them after a while. This means they get new IP
addresses. Would that be a problem? Soon I hope to also have arm64
workers from another platform available. I expect similar issues there.

c) How are the embargoed queue set up? If the CI-infrastructure would
get access to it, can it just process this archive like other archives,
or would we need to get build artifacts and put them together ourselves?
I would expect the former, but just to be sure.
