This patch adds a Python (3.5 or later) script to build many different configurations of glibc, including building the required cross compilers first. It's not intended to change any patch testing requirements, although some people may wish to use it for high-risk patches such as adding warning options (and it can also be used to test building, including compiling tests, for an individual configuration, if e.g. you wish to do such a compilation test of a patch for an architecture it touches). The configurations include all the GNU/Linux ABI variants in <https://sourceware.org/glibc/wiki/ABIList> (although some do not yet build cleanly) and it would be desirable to cover enough other variants e.g. for CPUs using different sysdeps directories to test building each piece of code in glibc at least once. It would also be desirable to extend it to cover Hurd and NaCl, which might best be done by people familiar with those configurations. You call the script as build-many-glibcs.py /some/where thing-to-do <other-arguments> where /some/where is a working directory for the script. It will create and use subdirectories build, install, logs therein. You can use it with thing-to-do being "checkout" to create a subdirectory src therein, with subdirectories binutils, gcc, glibc, gmp, linux, mpc, mpfr with the sources of those components, or create those directories manually (all except glibc can be symlinks to sources elsewhere). In the checkout case, by default it checks out GCC 6 branch, binutils 2.27 branch, glibc mainline and releases of other components. You can specify <component>-<version> to choose a version to check out, where <version> is "vcs-mainline" or "vcs-<branch>" to check out from version control (only supported for gcc, binutils, glibc) and otherwise a release version number to download and use a tarball; components not specified on the command line have default versions checked out. If you rerun "checkout" (with the same version specifications) it will update checkouts from version control, but will not detect cases where the location something is expected to be checked out from has changed. Other than "checkout", thing-to-do is one of host-libraries, compilers, glibcs. So you run, in that order: build-many-glibcs.py /some/where host-libraries build-many-glibcs.py /some/where compilers build-many-glibcs.py /some/where glibcs host-libraries is run once and then those libraries are used for all the compilers. compilers can be run once and then used many times for testing different glibc versions (so a bot only needs to update glibc and rerun the glibcs task, if using stable GCC / binutils; if testing the latest versions of the whole toolchain together including mainline GCC, it would probably want to update everything and rerun both compilers and glibcs). You can also name particular variants after "compilers" or "glibcs" to build just those variants (the possible variants are hardcoded in the script). I may add support for allowing the set of configurations to depend on the GCC version (to get cleaner default results), and optionally looping over architecture-independent glibc variants of CFLAGS and configure options as well, for every glibc configuration listed (e.g. -Os). GCC versions before 4.9 are not expected to work (the code uses --with-glibc-version to get the bootstrap GCC appropriately configured). There are various problems for particular configurations as well. Command-line options to the script: -jN to run N jobs in parallel (default the number of CPU cores reported by the system); --keep=all or --keep=failed to control keeping around build directories (default --keep=none). * scripts/build-many-glibcs.py: New file. |
