Any other suggestions? Historically I've used: https://artifact.ci.freebsd.org/snapshot/main/?C=3DM&O=3DD and the likes of kernel.txz (or more) from, for example: = https://artifact.ci.freebsd.org/snapshot/main/b4cc5d63b6112746598d21413c98= 00a43171da52/arm64/aarch64/?C=3DM&O=3DD to update just the kernel (or whatever) and rebooted. (It can help to have a somewhat older world that is left in place instead of running newer worlds on older kernels. Avoiding needing got update world as well has been helpful when testing for kernel issues.) This avoids building the kernels and allows a somewhat bisect like activity until some subrange has no arm64/aarch64 artifacts available. One can sometimes run into the dates for the sort for: https://artifact.ci.freebsd.org/snapshot/main/?C=3DM&O=3DD not matching up well with the dates on the files of interest in specific sub directoreis. (Some sort of directory update?) This can make the bisect far more difficult, given the choice to not have the directory names prefixed with text that would sort by a date/time estimate when sorted by name. (Only using the commit id/hash completely randomizes the naming.) =3D=3D=3D Mark Millard marklmi at yahoo.com
