CI is mostly interested in GTK not introducing compiler warnings, other
submodules like Wayland might have their own and that shouldn't hinder
CI testing of GTK.
Disable -Werror for the wayland submodule, and let it be fixed independently
at some point.
The gnome-runtime-images have been recently migrated to Quay. This is already reflected in the template.
Please note this MR has been created semi-automatically. If it doesn't make sense, feel free to close it.
This makes the hotspot of DND surfaces work when using the Vulkan and
OpenGL renderers.
This bumps the CI image used to the newly built image. This is needed to
install a new enough libwayland-client.so needed for wl_surface.offset.
This is done by adding wayland as a meson subproject, building it
on-demand if the version in the system is not new enough. As
libwayland-client.so is pulled in implicitly when linking to gtk4, the
compile step needs LD_LIBRARY_PATH set to make ld find the right library
to link to.
This is supposed to test the most fallback GL stuff, so we might want to
set even more env vars here.
Also enable the run for the Fedora builder in CI.
GTK supports webm playback, which means a backend should always be
compiled.
The ffmpeg backend however is incomplete (no audio) and as such, we
don't want people to end up with it accidentally.
Since we don't want to drag an entire gstreamer build into our ci
on MacOs or msvc, explicitly disable the gstreame media backend there.
v32 of the image includes wayland-protocols 1.21, and
other updates from Fedora 34.
While we are at it, drop gtk-doc from the image, and drop
the separate DOCS_IMAGE - no longer used.
Right now, we land inside a 404 if we go to:
https://gnome.pages.gitlab.gnome.org/gtk/
as we have all our API references in a sub-level. We should have a
landing page for the root, similar to developer.gnome.org/references/.
Most of this is cribbed from glib.
We don't use COMMON_MESON_FLAGS here, since disabling
-Werror one subproject at a time is too painful for
all the promoted sub-sub-projects. This needs a better
solution in meson.
Since this is a full rebuild of the entire stack, limit
this to master and merge requests.
Yielding option means that if pango is built as a subproject, it will
take the value of that option from the parent project (e.g. gst-build).
For that to work it must be of the same type, which is "feature" instead
of "boolean" in all GStreamer modules.
I added libcloudproviders to the base image, but
now I see that we already enabled libcloudproviders
in the build anyway, so I'm a bit confused.
Fixes: #2480
Use feature options for things that are optional features,
update the docs.
Visible changes here is that the 'print-backends' option
got renamed to 'print' to go better with 'media', and the
'tracker3' option got renamed to 'tracker'.
For options that have been changed into features, the
syntax now is -Dfeature=enabled or -Dfeature=disabled
or -Dfeature=auto.
We don't support any profilers other than sysprof,
so name the option accordingly. While we are at it,
change it to a meson feature option, so
-Dprofiler=true becomes -Dsysprof=enabled
Run our testsuite under asan. We do this in a
separate build, since we need to turn off
introspection to make the build succeed.
As Michael Catanzaro pointed out, this requires a
privileged runner in order to use kernel apis.
Currently we have to hunt all the `image` keys when updating the image
in use for a job. We should centralise them all at the top of the file,
so they are easy to update in one simple change.
It doesn't understand the powershell syntax which leads to the cache
key being empty which leads to cache restore being skipped
which leads to slow builds not using ccache.
See https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab-runner/-/issues/2747
They use powershell instead of cmd.exe, use the tag win32-ps instead of win32,
and run Windows 2016 instead of 2012r2.
The old runners will be switched off in the comming weeks.
We need to investigate release-specific failures, and possibly fix our
test suite to deal with debug-specific poking through the internal
state.
For the time being, allow the release job to fail, but this is strictly
a temporary measure.
We are going to need to hide the report generation into the test runner
script, as we want the job to produce the reports even in case of
failure, instead of bailing out immediately.
Now that we figured out why the build was failing on Fedora when the
profiling code was enabled, we can go back to building both shared and
static libraries by default.
We should have a single job for building both static and shared
versions of GTK. On the other hand, having a separate job for the
release build would be a plus.
Additionally, we shouldn't use an opaque script to build GTK; the only
step in the process that requires hand-holding is running the tests
suites under Xvfb, and having the build options visible from the YAML
file gives us a better idea of what kind of build we're running.
The msys2 runner has started failing for internal reasons:
- gtk-3-24 times out
- master fails with a ld.exe assertion:
BFD (GNU Binutils) 2.33.1 assertion fail
../../binutils-2.33.1/bfd/cofflink.c:2348
Both seem related to some MSYS2 issue. Until the runner is updated, we
should not block on it.
The JUnit cover report is useful, but only up to a point; for instance,
it's not used unless it's part of a merge request. This means you don't
get a report if you're pushing to a branch that does not have an MR open.
With a simple Python script and some minimal templating, we can generate
an HTML report from the "I Can't Believe it's not JSON™" log that Meson
produces, and keep it as a CI artifact.
GitLab's CI will bail out at the first failure, which means the
JSON-to-JUnit conversion script won't run unless it's part of the same
script that we run for building an testing.
There where some problems (??) with ccache not detecting changes during meson
checks. Setting CCACHE_DISABLE during the meson execution makes ccache not use
the cache and pass things directly to the compiler.
When building GTK through the CI infrastructure, it would help to have
some ways of testing it; for instance, if we want to verify that theme
changes are useful, or if we want to run the result without necessarily
build it locally.
This is where flatpak comes in handy. By having the CI build a flatpak
buundle, and storing it as an artifact, of the GTK demos, we can easily
point developers and designers to an installable binary that won't break
their system, nor will require development tools and environments to
run.
The GitLab cache is kept across jobs, whether they succeeded or not:
this means that if a compiler check fails during the Meson
configuration, the small compiler program gets cached and restored the
next time the job is run, thus failing again.
I've rebuilt the new Docker image we use for CI to include GStreamer in
the dependencies.
We really need to have the Docker registry hosted on gnome.org, to avoid
pointing people at Dockerhub.
The CI runner is pretty slow to set up (takes about 6 minutes to get
through the system dependencies needed to build GTK), and does not work
with dependencies as subprojects.
Until we figure out how to make it work, and make it work a bit faster,
we should drop CI and rely on Continuous for a while longer.
We can revert this commit as soon as we find out how to make things
work.
