** Description changed:

  [Availability]
  - This package rust-hwlib is published to the PPA: 
https://launchpad.net/~nhutsko/+archive/ubuntu/hwcert,
    it'is NOT part of the universe. We have an exception to publish it directly 
to main, since this library
    will help the development of solutions that affect Canonical customers 
directly.
    Please check with ~paelzer for more information.
  - The package rust-hwlib build for the architectures it is designed to work 
on.
  - It currently builds and works for architectures: riscv64, arm64, armhf, 
amd64
  - Link to package: 
https://launchpad.net/~nhutsko/+archive/ubuntu/hwcert/+packages
  
  [Rationale]
  - This package rust-hwlib is part of the 
[hardware-api](https://github.com/canonical/hardware-api)
    project, owned and developed by Canonical Certification team.
    It will be used by Ubuntu pro-client to retrieve information about the 
machine and check its certification status.
  - The package rust-hwlib will generally be useful for a large number of users 
who use Ubuntu and
    want see what components have been tested and certified and for which 
Ubuntu releases
  - There is no other/better way to solve this that is already in main or
    should go universe->main instead of this.
  - The package rust-hwlib is required in Ubuntu main no later than October 
10th due to Oracular's
    release date, so users and Canonical customer can install it for the latest 
Ubuntu release
  
  [Security]
  - No CVEs/security issues in this software in the past
  
  - no `suid` or `sgid` binaries
  - no executables in `/sbin` and `/usr/sbin`
  - Package does not install services, timers or recurring jobs
  - Packages does not open privileged ports (ports < 1024).
  - Package does not expose any external endpoints
  - Packages does not contain extensions to security-sensitive software
  
  [Quality assurance - function/usage]
  - The package works well right after install
  
  [Quality assurance - maintenance]
  - The package is maintained well in Upstream and does
    not have too many, long-term & critical, open bugs
    - Upstream's bug tracker: https://github.com/canonical/hardware-api/issues
  - The package does not deal with exotic hardware we cannot support
  
  [Quality assurance - testing]
  - The package runs a test suite on build time, if it fails
    it makes the build fail, link to build log:

  RULE:   - The package should, but is not required to, also contain
  RULE:     non-trivial autopkgtest(s).
  TODO-A: - The package runs an autopkgtest, and is currently passing on
  TODO-A:   this TBD list of architectures, link to test logs TBD
  TODO-B: - The package does not run an autopkgtest because TBD
  
  RULE: - existing but failing tests that shall be handled as "ok to fail"
  RULE:   need to be explained along the test logs below
  TODO-A: - The package does have not failing autopkgtests right now
  TODO-B: - The package does have failing autopkgtests tests right now, but 
since
  TODO-B:   they always failed they are handled as "ignored failure", this is
  TODO-B:   ok because TBD
  
  RULE: - If no build tests nor autopkgtests are included, and/or if the package
  RULE:   requires specific hardware to perform testing, the subscribed team
  RULE:   must provide a written test plan in a comment to the MIR bug, and
  RULE:   commit to running that test either at each upload of the package or
  RULE:   at least once each release cycle. In the comment to the MIR bug,
  RULE:   please link to the codebase of these tests (scripts or doc of manual
                                                              RULE:   steps) 
and attach a full log of these test runs. This is meant to
  RULE:   assess their validity (e.g. not just superficial).
  RULE:   If possible such things should stay in universe. Sometimes that is
  RULE:   impossible due to the way how features/plugins/dependencies work
  RULE:   but if you are going to ask for promotion of something untestable
  RULE:   please outline why it couldn't provide its value (e.g. by splitting
                                                                 RULE:   
binaries) to users from universe.
  RULE:   This is a balance that is hard to strike well, the request is that all
  RULE:   options have been exploited before giving up. Look for more details
  RULE:   and backgrounds https://github.com/canonical/ubuntu-mir/issues/30
  RULE:   Just like in the SRU process it is worth to understand what the
  RULE:   consequences a regression (due to a test miss) would be. Therefore
  RULE:   if being untestable we ask to outline what consequences this would
  RULE:   have for the given package. And let us be honest, even if you can
  RULE:   test you are never sure you will be able to catch all potential
  RULE:   regressions. So this is mostly to force self-awareness of the owning
  RULE:   team than to make a decision on.
  TODO: - The package can not be well tested at build or autopkgtest time
  TODO:   because TBD. To make up for that:
  TODO-A:   - We have access to such hardware in the team
  TODO-B:   - We have allocated budget to get this hardware, but it is not here
  TODO-B:     yet
  TODO-C:   - We have checked with solutions-qa and will use their hardware
  TODO-C:     through testflinger
  TODO-D:   - We have checked with other team TBD and will use their hardware
  TODO-D:     through TBD (eg. MAAS)
  TODO-E:   - We have checked and found a simulator which covers this case
  TODO-E:     sufficiently for testing, our plan to use it is TBD
  TODO-F:   - We have engaged with the upstream community and due to that
  TODO-F:     can tests new package builds via TBD
  TODO-G:   - We have engaged with our user community and due to that
  TODO-G:     can tests new package builds via TBD
  TODO-H:   - We have engaged with the hardware manufacturer and made an
  TODO-H:     agreement to test new builds via TBD
  TODO-A-H: - Based on that access outlined above, here are the details of the
  TODO-A-H:   test plan/automation TBD (e.g. script or repo) and (if already
                                                                     TODO-A-H:  
 possible) example output of a test run: TBD (logs).
  TODO-A-H:   We will execute that test plan
  TODO-A-H1:  on-uploads
  TODO-A-H2:  regularly (TBD details like frequency: monthly, infra: jira-url)
  TODO-X:   - We have exhausted all options, there really is no feasible way
  TODO-X:     to test or recreate this. We are aware of the extra implications
  TODO-X:     and duties this has for our team (= help SEG and security on
                                                  TODO-X:     servicing this 
package, but also more effort on any of your own
                                                  TODO-X:     bug triage and 
fixes).
  TODO-X:     Due to TBD there also is no way to provide this to users from
  TODO-X:     universe.
  TODO-X:     Due to the nature, integration and use cases of the package the
  TODO-X:     consequences of a regression that might slip through most likely
  TODO-X:     would include
  TODO-X:     - TBD
  TODO-X:     - TBD
  TODO-X:     - TBD
  
  RULE: - In some cases a solution that is about to be promoted consists of
  RULE:   several very small libraries and one actual application uniting them
  RULE:   to achieve something useful. This is rather common in the go/rust 
space.
  RULE:   In that case often these micro-libs on their own can and should only
  RULE:   provide low level unit-tests. But more complex autopkgtests make no
  RULE:   sense on that level. Therefore in those cases one might want to test 
on
  RULE:   the solution level.
  RULE:   - Process wise MIR-requesting teams can ask (on the bug) for this
  RULE:     special case to apply for a given case, which reduces the test
  RULE:     constraints on the micro libraries but in return increases the
  RULE:     requirements for the test of the actual app/solution.
  RULE:   - Since this might promote micro-lib packages to main with less than
  RULE:     the common level of QA any further MIRed program using them will 
have
  RULE:     to provide the same amount of increased testing.
  TODO: - This package is minimal and will be tested in a more wide reaching
  TODO:   solution context TBD, details about this testing are here TBD
