Buildman has been around for a little over a year and is used by a fair number of U-Boot developers. However quite a few people still use MAKEALL.
Buildman was intended to replace MAKEALL, so perhaps now is a good time to start that process.
OK, lets start. First, I had to make up a special directory with symlinks to the various toolchains, in order to get them to work with buildman, due to the various layouts:
$ ls -l ~/work/u-boot/toolchain-links/ total 4 lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 38 Aug 1 17:09 arc_gnu_4.8-R2_prebuilt_uclibc_be -> /opt/arc_gnu_4.8-R2_prebuilt_uclibc_be lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 38 Aug 1 17:09 arc_gnu_4.8-R2_prebuilt_uclibc_le -> /opt/arc_gnu_4.8-R2_prebuilt_uclibc_le lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 24 Aug 1 17:10 bfin-elf -> /opt/uClinux-45/bfin-elf lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 32 Aug 1 17:09 m68k-linux -> /opt/gcc-4.9.0-nolibc/m68k-linux lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 34 Aug 1 17:09 microblazeel-xilinx-linux-gnu -> /opt/microblazeel-xilinx-linux-gnu lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 32 Aug 1 17:09 microblaze-xilinx-linux-gnu -> /opt/microblaze-xilinx-linux-gnu lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 66 Aug 1 17:15 mips32-linux -> /opt/eldk-5.2.1/mips/sysroots/i686-eldk-linux/usr/bin/mips32-linux lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 36 Aug 1 17:09 nds32le-linux-glibc-v1f -> /opt/nds32le/nds32le-linux-glibc-v1f lrwxrwxrwx 1 trini trini 20 Aug 1 17:09 sparc-elf-3.4.4 -> /opt/sparc-elf-3.4.4
I tried a few things but I couldn't get a toolchain section setup that found all of those. Second:
OK, can you give me a trace of the output of 'buildman --list-tool-chains' - I should be able to figure out what is wrong.
(testing the MMC pull request) $ ./tools/buildman/buildman -b master 'arc|blackfin|m68k|microblaze|nds32|sparc|mips' No section: 'make-flags' Building 11 commits for 121 boards (6 threads, 1 job per thread) Cloning repo for thread 0 Cloning repo for thread 1 Cloning repo for thread 2 Cloning repo for thread 3 Cloning repo for thread 4 Cloning repo for thread 5 1155 88 88 /1331 axs101
So it's nice that it spit out a thread per commit, but I really only care right now if master builds right. And I've gone blind and can't find the end result logs of what failed to build (88 failures doesn't quite match the warning/errors I get for my wrapper around toolchains+MAKEALL).
You can use the -s flag to see the broken builds, and -se to see errors also. Is that what you mean?
The output is in ../<branch>/<commit>/<board> but if you want to keep the binaries, you need -k also.
I also didn't quite see how to plugin an arm64 toolchain.
I haven't tried - can you please point me to one and I'll give it a go.
Next up, is there some way to have multiple toolchains for an arch available? On some compute resources I have at work I throw arm/eldk4.2, arm/eldk5.2, arm/linaro-2013.03 (since we've pinned to that for some projects) and some various combos for powerpc as well. I didn't see how to do that with buildman aside from different ~/.buildman files per invocation.
Yes I remember you talking about this before. One option would be to add toolchain as a new dimension in the matrix. It might be painful though. So to be clear, you want to define multiple toolchains for an arch, and have buildman always build with all of them?
