The Jenkins Continuous Integration and Testing project + has been helping to improve the quality of &os;. Since the last + status report, we have quickly found commits that caused build + breakage or test failures. &os; developers saw these problems and + quickly fixed them. Some of the highlights include:

+ +
    +
  • Ricky Gallagher wrote a script named + portest, which can take a patch to the &os; ports + tree as input, and can generate a sequence of commands to + check out the ports tree from Subversion, apply the patch, and + then invoke poudriere to build the affected part of + the ports tree. Ricky consulted with Torsten Zühlsdorff + on this. This script will be used later to test changes to + the ports tree.
  • + +
  • +

    &a.rodrigc; converted some Jenkins builds to use + the Workflow plugin. Workflow is a plugin written by Jesse + Glick and other developers at Cloudbees, the main company + providing commercial support for Jenkins. With this plugin, a + Jenkins job can be written in a Domain Specific Language (DSL) + which is written in the Groovy scripting language. Workflow + scripts are meant to provide sophisticated access to Jenkins + functionality, in a simple scripting language. As Jenkins + jobs get more complicated and have more interdependencies, + using a DSL is easier for maintainability instead of creating + Jenkins jobs via menus.

    + +

    &a.rodrigc; worked with Jesse Glick to identify + and fix a problem with the Durable Task plugin used by the + workflow plugin. This problem seemed to show up mostly on + non-Linux platforms such as OS X and &os;.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    &a.eadler; worked with &a.rodrigc; to test a + Jenkins plugin written by Aiden Scandella at Uber which + integrates Phabricator and Jenkins. With this plugin, if + someone submits a code review with Phabricator's Differential + tool, a Jenkins build with this code change will be triggered. + The Phabricator code review would then be updated with the + result of the build.

    + +

    &a.eadler; and &a.rodrigc; had some initial + success testing this plugin using the &os; docs + repository, but this plugin still has a lot of hardcoded + dependencies specific to Uber's environment which make it + difficult to use out-of-the-box for &os;. Alexander Yerenkow + submitted some patches upstream to fix some of these problems, + but this plugin still needs more work. &a.rodrigc; thinks + that it might be better to write a workflow script to call + Phabricator commands directly.

    +
  • + +
  • +

    &a.rodrigc; pushed fixes upstream to several + plugins including:

    + +
      +
    • SCM Sync configuration plugin
    • + +
    • NodeLabel parameter plugin
    • + +
    • Subversion plugin
    • + +
    • Multiple SCMs plugin
    • + +
    • Clang Scanbuild plugin
    • +
    + +

    &a.rodrigc; was granted commit access to the SCM + Sync configuration plugin, Multiple SCMs plugin, and Clang + Scanbuild plugin.

    +
  • + +
  • &a.lwhsu; set up multiple builds using jails on + machines located at NYI and administered by the &os; Cluster + Administrators. One of these builds targets 64-bit ARM.
  • + +
  • Michael Zhilin fixed the Akuma library for &os;. + The Akuma library is used by Jenkins to determine what + command-line arguments were passed to a running process. To + fix this, Michael invoked an &os;-specific sysctl() with + KERN_PROC_ARGS to determine the arguments for a running pid. + This fix allows a running Jenkins instance to restart itself + after new plugins are installed.
  • + +
  • &a.jmmv; accepted a fix for Kyua from &a.rodrigc; + to fix writing out XML characters to test report files.
  • +
+ + + + +

Work more on using the workflow plugin for various builds.

+
+ + +

Set up a build to test bmake's meta-mode.

+
+ + +

Finish off integration with Phabricator.
