[U-Boot] buildman: display list of boards with warnings/errors during build?
Hello,
Apologies if I have missed the answer to my question in tools/buildman/README or the buildman -h output.
When buildman runs on a large set of boards (such as when I run 'tools/buildman/buildman -k aarch64 arm') it shows a summary of how many boards so far have built fine, built with warnings and built with errors, which is good, and a list of notes, warnings and errors emitted by the compiler so far, which is good when building branches. But when building architectures, as I do, I would prefer that buildman just list the boards that have failed clean building (and list them again when invoked with -s)
Did I just miss the option or option combination which produces this, or should I go and patch buildman to add such an option?
Amicalement,

Also -H which gives the full README.

Does -l do what you want?

Not exactly: -l does list the failing boards, but it does so as they are found, mixing the warning and error cases. MAKEALL lists them at the end, in a summary, where all boards with warning are listed together and so are all boards with errors. I don't mind getting the list displayed before the end, for instance each time a new board fails, but I really would like it to be grouped by failure type (warning or error) and ideally, sorted in alphabetical board name order.
Also, -l apparently does not prevent all notes, warnings and error diagnostics from being emitted by the compiler during builds.
Plus, with -l, there seems to be a weird bug whereby a single board gets listed a bazillion times for a warning.
To make things easier, I have pushed the commit I am using with buildman as branch "buildman_test" on u-boot-arm, and here is the command line I use, without -l:
tools/buildman/buildman -o build -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space
And with -l
tools/buildman/buildman -o build -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space -l
The first four boards have warnings or errors (the last two ones are just added as known guild build cases) with gcc version 4.8.2 (Ubuntu/Linaro 4.8.2-16ubuntu4).
Again, if this is not possible, I am willing to contribute a patch to get it done.

OK I see. I think this is a bit wrong at the moment - I pushed a few patches to u-boot-x86 in branch 'buildman' for you to try.

Well beyond the possible fixes I just pushed, yes it would be great if you could implement the features you need.

The commit to fix -l works.
The commit to preselect -e only when not in summary mode does not exactly match what I would like, because I want to hide compiler diagnostics in summary mode as well as in non-summary mode. IOW, when I build all of arm+aarch64 I am primarily looking at the list of boards which fail, not (at this point) at the reason why they do; this I can find later by looking at the err files.
I guess removing entirely the 'options.show_errors = True' statement would be better, and anyway, I see one problem in automatically setting it True despite -e not being specified on the command line: in that case, the user has no way to set it back to False on the command line.
On the other hand, removing the automatic setting of -e from the non-branch case causes a call to buildman to just produce the failing board names, which is close enough to what I want:
$ tools/buildman/buildman -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space Building current source for 6 boards (6 threads, 2 jobs per thread) arm: + odroid arm: + apalis_t30 arm: + tricorder_flash arm: + tricorder 2 1 3 /6 0:00:05 : tricorder $
$ tools/buildman/buildman -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space -s
$ tools/buildman/buildman -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space -s boards.cfg is up to date. Nothing to do. Summary of current source for 6 boards (6 threads, 2 jobs per thread) arm: + tricorder tricorder_flash odroid apalis_t30 $
$ tools/buildman/buildman -k odroid apalis_t30 tricorder_flash tricorder edminiv2 wireless_space -s -e boards.cfg is up to date. Nothing to do. Summary of current source for 6 boards (6 threads, 2 jobs per thread) arm: + tricorder tricorder_flash odroid apalis_t30 [awful lots of notes, warnings, errors] $
Would it be ok to remove 'options.show_errors = True' altogether in the non-branch case?

Probably, it would just require an update to the instructions. It's a very new feature. I'll update the patch and send it out.
