The Travis CI scripts were taught to ship back the test data from failed tests. * sg/travis-retrieve-trash-upon-failure: travis-ci: include the trash directories of failed tests in the trace log
2018-08-01travis-ci: include the trash directories of failed tests in the trace logLibravatar SZEDER Gábor3-3/+104
The trash directory of a failed test might contain invaluable information about the cause of the failure, but we have no access to the trash directories of Travis CI build jobs. The only feedback we get from there is the build job's trace log, so... Modify 'ci/print-test-failures.sh' to create a tar.gz archive of the trash directory of each failed test, encode that archive with base64, and print the resulting block of ASCII text, so it gets embedded in the trace log. Furthermore, run tests with '--immediate' to faithfully preserve the failed state. Extracting the trash directories from the trace log turned out to be a bit of a hassle, partly because of the size of these logs (usually resulting in several hundreds or even thousands of lines of base64-encoded text), and partly because these logs have CRLF, CRCRLF and occasionally even CRCRCRLF line endings, which cause 'base64 -d' from coreutils to complain about "invalid input". For convenience add a small script 'ci/util/extract-trash-dirs.sh', which will extract and unpack all base64-encoded trash directories embedded in the log fed to its standard input, and include an example command to be copy-pasted into a terminal to do it all at the end of the failure report. A few of our tests create sizeable trash directories, so limit the size of each included base64-encoded block, let's say, to 1MB. And just in case something fundamental gets broken and a lot of tests fail at once, don't include trash directories when the combined size of the included base64-encoded blocks would exceed 1MB.

2018-07-23travis-ci: fail if Coccinelle static analysis found something to transformLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+19
Coccinelle's and in turn 'make coccicheck's exit code only indicates that Coccinelle managed to finish its analysis without any errors (e.g. no unknown --options, no missing files, no syntax errors in the semantic patches, etc.), but it doesn't indicate whether it found any undesired code patterns to transform or not. To find out the latter, one has to look closer at 'make coccicheck's standard output and look for lines like: SPATCH result: contrib/coccinelle/<something>.cocci.patch And this only indicates that there is something to transform, but to see what the suggested transformations are one has to actually look into those '*.cocci.patch' files. This makes the automated static analysis build job on Travis CI not particularly useful, because it neither draws our attention to Coccinelle's findings, nor shows the actual findings. Consequently, new topics introducing undesired code patterns graduated to master on several occasions without anyone noticing. The only way to draw attention in such an automated setting is to fail the build job. Therefore, modify the 'ci/run-static-analysis.sh' build script to check all the resulting '*.cocci.patch' files, and fail the build job if any of them turns out to be not empty. Include those files' contents, i.e. Coccinelle's suggested transformations, in the build job's trace log, so we'll know why it failed.

2018-07-23travis-ci: run Coccinelle static analysis with two parallel jobsLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+1
Currently the static analysis build job runs Coccinelle using a single 'make' job. Using two parallel jobs cuts down the build job's run time from around 10-12mins to 6-7mins, sometimes even under 6mins (there is quite large variation between build job runtimes). More than two parallel jobs don't seem to bring further runtime benefits. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>

2018-01-30travis-ci: don't fail if user already exists on 32 bit Linux build jobLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-1/+7
The 32 bit Linux build job runs in a Docker container, which lends itself to running and debugging locally, too. Especially during debugging one usually doesn't want to start with a fresh container every time, to save time spent on installing a bunch of dependencies. However, that doesn't work quite smootly, because the script running in the container always creates a new user, which then must be removed every time before subsequent executions, or the build script fails. Make this process more convenient and don't try to create that user if it already exists and has the right user ID in the container, so developers don't have to bother with running a 'userdel' each time before they run the build script. The build job on Travis CI always starts with a fresh Docker container, so this change doesn't make a difference there.

2018-01-30travis-ci: don't run the test suite as root in the 32 bit Linux buildLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-6/+26
Travis CI runs the 32 bit Linux build job in a Docker container, where all commands are executed as root by default. Therefore, ever since we added this build job in 88dedd5e7 (Travis: also test on 32-bit Linux, 2017-03-05), we have a bit of code to create a user in the container matching the ID of the host user and then to run the test suite as this user. Matching the host user ID is important, because otherwise the host user would have no access to any files written by processes running in the container, notably the logs of failed tests couldn't be included in the build job's trace log. Alas, this piece of code never worked, because it sets the variable holding the user name ($CI_USER) in a subshell, meaning it doesn't have any effect by the time we get to the point to actually use the variable to switch users with 'su'. So all this time we were running the test suite as root. Reorganize that piece of code in 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' a bit to avoid that problematic subshell and to ensure that we switch to the right user. Furthermore, make the script's optional host user ID option mandatory, so running the build accidentally as root will become harder when debugging locally. If someone really wants to run the test suite as root, whatever the reasons might be, it'll still be possible to do so by explicitly passing '0' as host user ID. Finally, one last catch: since commit 7e72cfcee (travis-ci: save prove state for the 32 bit Linux build, 2017-12-27) the 'prove' test harness has been writing its state to the Travis CI cache directory from within the Docker container while running as root. After this patch 'prove' will run as a regular user, so in future build jobs it won't be able overwrite a previously written, still root-owned state file, resulting in build job failures. To resolve this we should manually delete caches containing such root-owned files, but that would be a hassle. Instead, work this around by changing the owner of the whole contents of the cache directory to the host user ID.

2018-01-30travis-ci: don't repeat the path of the cache directoryLibravatar SZEDER Gábor4-6/+11
Some of our 'ci/*' scripts repeat the name or full path of the Travis CI cache directory, and the following patches will add new places using that path. Use a variable to refer to the path of the cache directory instead, so it's hard-coded only in a single place. Pay extra attention to the 32 bit Linux build: it runs in a Docker container, so pass the path of the cache directory from the host to the container in an environment variable. Note that an environment variable passed this way is exported inside the container, therefore its value is directly available in the 'su' snippet even though that snippet is single quoted. Furthermore, use the variable in the container only if it's been assigned a non-empty value, to prevent errors when someone is running or debugging the Docker build locally, because in that case the variable won't be set as there won't be any Travis CI cache.

2018-01-30travis-ci: use 'set -e' in the 32 bit Linux build jobLibravatar SZEDER Gábor1-10/+10
The script 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' running inside the Docker container of the 32 bit Linux build job uses an && chain to break the build if one of the commands fails. This is problematic for two reasons: - The && chain is broken, because there is this in the middle: test -z $HOST_UID || (CI_USER="ci" && useradd -u $HOST_UID $CI_USER) && Luckily it is broken in a way that it didn't lead to false successes. If installing dependencies fails, then the rest of the first && chain is skipped and execution resumes after the || operator. At that point $HOST_UID is still unset, causing 'useradd' to error out with "invalid user ID 'ci'", which in turn causes the second && chain to abort the script and thus break the build. - All other 'ci/*' scripts use 'set -e' to break the build if one of the commands fails. This inconsistency among these scripts is asking for trouble: I forgot about the && chain more than once while working on this patch series. Enable 'set -e' for the whole script and for the commands executed under 'su' as well. While touching every line in the 'su' command block anyway, change their indentation to use a tab instead of spaces.

2018-01-19travis: run tests with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEXLibravatar Thomas Gummerer1-0/+4
Split index mode only has a few dedicated tests, but as the index is involved in nearly every git operation, this doesn't quite cover all the ways repositories with split index can break. To use split index mode throughout the test suite a GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX environment variable can be set, which makes git split the index at random and thus excercises the functionality much more thoroughly. As this is not turned on by default, it is not executed nearly as often as the test suite is run, so occationally breakages slip through. Try to counteract that by running the test suite with GIT_TEST_SPLIT_INDEX mode turned on on travis. To avoid using too many cycles on travis only run split index mode in the linux-gcc target only. The Linux build was chosen over the Mac OS builds because it tends to be much faster to complete. The linux gcc build was chosen over the linux clang build because the linux clang build is the fastest build, so it can serve as an early indicator if something is broken and we want to avoid spending the extra cycles of running the test suite twice for that.

2018-01-08travis-ci: build Git during the 'script' phaseLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-9/+3
Ever since we started building and testing Git on Travis CI (522354d70 (Add Travis CI support, 2015-11-27)), we build Git in the 'before_script' phase and run the test suite in the 'script' phase (except in the later introduced 32 bit Linux and Windows build jobs, where we build in the 'script' phase'). Contrarily, the Travis CI practice is to build and test in the 'script' phase; indeed Travis CI's default build command for the 'script' phase of C/C++ projects is: ./configure && make && make test The reason why Travis CI does it this way and why it's a better approach than ours lies in how unsuccessful build jobs are categorized. After something went wrong in a build job, its state can be: - 'failed', if a command in the 'script' phase returned an error. This is indicated by a red 'X' on the Travis CI web interface. - 'errored', if a command in the 'before_install', 'install', or 'before_script' phase returned an error, or the build job exceeded the time limit. This is shown as a red '!' on the web interface. This makes it easier, both for humans looking at the Travis CI web interface and for automated tools querying the Travis CI API, to decide when an unsuccessful build is our responsibility requiring human attention, i.e. when a build job 'failed' because of a compiler error or a test failure, and when it's caused by something beyond our control and might be fixed by restarting the build job, e.g. when a build job 'errored' because a dependency couldn't be installed due to a temporary network error or because the OSX build job exceeded its time limit. The drawback of building Git in the 'before_script' phase is that one has to check the trace log of all 'errored' build jobs, too, to see what caused the error, as it might have been caused by a compiler error. This requires additional clicks and page loads on the web interface and additional complexity and API requests in automated tools. Therefore, move building Git from the 'before_script' phase to the 'script' phase, updating the script's name accordingly as well. 'ci/run-builds.sh' now becomes basically empty, remove it. Several of our build job configurations override our default 'before_script' to do nothing; with this change our default 'before_script' won't do anything, either, so remove those overriding directives as well.

Every once in a while our explicit .gitignore files get out of sync when our build process learns to create new artifacts, like test helper executables, but the .gitignore files are not updated accordingly. Use Travis CI to help catch such issues earlier: check that there are no untracked files at the end of any build jobs building Git (i.e. the 64 bit Clang and GCC Linux and OSX build jobs, plus the GETTEXT_POISON and 32 bit Linux build jobs) or its documentation, and fail the build job if there are any present.

The next commit is about to make sure that there are no untracked files present after the build, and the downloaded executables in the working tree are interfering with those upcoming checks.

2018-01-02travis-ci: record and skip successfully built treesLibravatar SZEDER Gábor6-0/+57
Travis CI dutifully builds and tests each new branch tip, even if its tree has previously been successfully built and tested. This happens often enough in contributors' workflows, when a work-in-progress branch is rebased changing e.g. only commit messages or the order or number of commits while leaving the resulting code intact, and is then pushed to a Travis CI-enabled GitHub fork. This is wasting Travis CI's resources and is sometimes scary-annoying when the new tip commit with a tree identical to the previous, successfully tested one is suddenly reported in red, because one of the OSX build jobs happened to exceed the time limit yet again. So extend our Travis CI build scripts to skip building commits whose trees have previously been successfully built and tested. Use the Travis CI cache feature to keep a record of the object names of trees that tested successfully, in a plain and simple flat text file, one line per tree object name. Append the current tree's object name at the end of every successful build job to this file, along with a bit of additional info about the build job (commit object name, Travis CI job number and id). Limit the size of this file to 1000 records, to prevent it from growing too large for git/git's forever living integration branches. Check, using a simple grep invocation, in each build job whether the current commit's tree is already in there, and skip the build if it is. Include a message in the skipped build job's trace log, containing the URL to the build job successfully testing that tree for the first time and instructions on how to force a re-build. Catch the case when a build job, which successfully built and tested a particular tree for the first time, is restarted and omit the URL of the previous build job's trace log, as in this case it's the same build job and the trace log has just been overwritten. Note: this won't kick in if two identical trees are on two different branches, because Travis CI caches are not shared between build jobs of different branches.

2018-01-02travis-ci: create the cache directory early in the build processLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-1/+2
It seems that Travis CI creates the cache directory for us anyway, even when a previous cache doesn't exist for the current build job. Alas, this behavior is not explicitly documented, therefore we don't rely on it and create the cache directory ourselves in those build jobs that read/write cached data (currently only the prove state). In the following commit we'll start to cache additional data in every build job, and will access the cache much earlier in the build process.

The change in commit 4f2636667 (travis-ci: use 'set -x' in 'ci/*' scripts for extra tracing output, 2017-12-12) left a couple of rough edges: - 'ci/run-linux32-build.sh' is executed in a Docker container and therefore doesn't source 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which would enable tracing executed commands. Enable 'set -x' in this script, too. - 'ci/print-test-failures.sh' iterates over all the files containing the exit codes of all the executed test scripts. Since there are over 800 such files, the loop produces way too much noise with tracing executed commands enabled, so disable 'set -x' for this script. - 'ci/run-windows-build.sh' busily waits in a loop for the result of the Windows build, producing too much noise with tracing executed commands enabled as well.

2017-12-12travis-ci: set GIT_TEST_HTTPD in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor2-2/+2
Commit 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated scripts, 2017-09-10) converted '.travis.yml's default 'before_install' scriptlet to the 'ci/install-dependencies.sh' script, and while doing so moved setting GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang Linux build jobs to that script. This is wrong for two reasons: - The purpose of that script is, as its name suggests, to install dependencies, not to set any environment variables influencing which tests should be run (though, arguably, this was already an issue with the original 'before_install' scriptlet). - Setting the variable has no effect anymore, because that script is run in a separate shell process, and the variable won't be visible in any of the other scripts, notably in 'ci/run-tests.sh' responsible for, well, running the tests. Luckily, this didn't have a negative effect on our Travis CI build jobs, because GIT_TEST_HTTPD is a tri-state variable defaulting to "auto" and a functioning web server was installed in those Linux build jobs, so the httpd tests were run anyway. Apparently the httpd tests run just fine without GIT_TEST_HTTPD being set, therefore we could simply remove this environment variable. However, if a bug were to creep in to change the Travis CI build environment to run the tests as root or to not install Apache, then the httpd tests would be skipped and the build job would still succeed. We would only notice if someone actually were to look through the build job's trace log; but who would look at the trace log of a successful build job?! Since httpd tests are important, we do want to run them and we want to be loudly reminded if they can't be run. Therefore, move setting GIT_TEST_HTTPD=YesPlease for the 64-bit GCC and Clang Linux build jobs to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' to ensure that the build job fails when the httpd tests can't be run. (We could set it in 'ci/run-tests.sh' just as well, but it's better to keep all environment variables in one place in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'.)

2017-12-12travis-ci: move setting environment variables to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh'Libravatar SZEDER Gábor1-0/+21
Our '.travis.yml's 'env.global' section sets a bunch of environment variables for all build jobs, though none of them actually affects all build jobs. It's convenient for us, and in most cases it works just fine, because irrelevant environment variables are simply ignored. However, $GIT_SKIP_TESTS is an exception: it tells the test harness to skip the two test scripts that are prone to occasional failures on OSX, but as it's set for all build jobs those tests are not run in any of the build jobs that are capable to run them reliably, either. Therefore $GIT_SKIP_TESTS should only be set in the OSX build jobs, but those build jobs are included in the build matrix implicitly (i.e. by combining the matrix keys 'os' and 'compiler'), and there is no way to set an environment variable only for a subset of those implicit build jobs. (Unless we were to add new scriptlets to '.travis.yml', which is exactly the opposite direction that we took with commit 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated scripts, 2017-09-10)). So move setting $GIT_SKIP_TESTS to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', where it can trivially be set only for the OSX build jobs. Furthermore, move setting all other environment variables from '.travis.yml' to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', too, because a couple of environment variables are already set there, and this way all environment variables will be set in the same place. All the logic controlling our builds is already in the 'ci/*' scripts anyway, so there is really no good reason to keep the environment variables separately.

2017-12-12travis-ci: introduce a $jobname variable for 'ci/*' scriptsLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-5/+10
A couple of 'ci/*' scripts are shared between different build jobs: 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', being a common library, is sourced from almost every script, while 'ci/install-dependencies.sh', 'ci/run-build.sh' and 'ci/run-tests.sh' are shared between the "regular" GCC and Clang Linux and OSX build jobs, and the latter two scripts are used in the GETTEXT_POISON Linux build job as well. Our builds could benefit from these shared scripts being able to easily tell which build job they are taking part in. Now, it's already quite easy to tell apart Linux vs OSX and GCC vs Clang build jobs, but it gets trickier with all the additional Linux-based build jobs included explicitly in the build matrix. Unfortunately, Travis CI doesn't provide much help in this regard. The closest we've got is the $TRAVIS_JOB_NUMBER variable, the value of which is two dot-separated integers, where the second integer indicates a particular build job. While it would be possible to use that second number to identify the build job in our shared scripts, it doesn't seem like a good idea to rely on that: - Though the build job numbering sequence seems to be stable so far, Travis CI's documentation doesn't explicitly states that it is indeed stable and will remain so in the future. And even if it were stable, - if we were to remove or insert a build job in the middle, then the job numbers of all subsequent build jobs would change accordingly. So roll our own means of simple build job identification and introduce the $jobname environment variable in our builds, setting it in the environments of the explicitly included jobs in '.travis.yml', while constructing one in 'ci/lib-travisci.sh' as the combination of the OS and compiler name for the GCC and Clang Linux and OSX build jobs. Use $jobname instead of $TRAVIS_OS_NAME in scripts taking different actions based on the OS and build job (when installing P4 and Git LFS dependencies and including them in $PATH). The following two patches will also rely on $jobname. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>
2017-11-02travis-ci: fix running P4 and Git LFS tests in Linux build jobsLibravatar SZEDER Gábor2-6/+12
Linux build jobs on Travis CI skip the P4 and Git LFS tests since commit 657343a60 (travis-ci: move Travis CI code into dedicated scripts, 2017-09-10), claiming there are no P4 or Git LFS installed. The reason is that P4 and Git LFS binaries are not installed to a directory in the default $PATH, but their directories are prepended to $PATH. This worked just fine before said commit, because $PATH was set in a scriptlet embedded in our '.travis.yml', thus its new value was visible during the rest of the build job. However, after these embedded scriptlets were moved into dedicated scripts executed in separate shell processes, any variable set in one of those scripts is only visible in that single script but not in any of the others. In this case, 'ci/install-dependencies.sh' downloads P4 and Git LFS and modifies $PATH, but to no effect, because 'ci/run-tests.sh' only sees Travis CI's default $PATH. Move adjusting $PATH to 'ci/lib-travisci.sh', which is sourced in all other 'ci/' scripts, so all those scripts will see the updated $PATH value.

2017-03-28travis-ci: build and test Git on WindowsLibravatar Lars Schneider1-0/+74
Most Git developers work on Linux and they have no way to know if their changes would break the Git for Windows build. Let's fix that by adding a job to TravisCI that builds and tests Git on Windows. Unfortunately, TravisCI does not support Windows. Therefore, we did the following: * Johannes Schindelin set up a Visual Studio Team Services build sponsored by Microsoft and made it accessible via an Azure Function that speaks a super-simple API. We made TravisCI use this API to trigger a build, wait until its completion, and print the build and test results. * A Windows build and test run takes up to 3h and TravisCI has a timeout after 50min for Open Source projects. Since the TravisCI job does not use heavy CPU/memory/etc. resources, the friendly TravisCI folks extended the job timeout for git/git to 3h. Things, that would need to be done: * Someone with write access to https://travis-ci.org/git/git would need to add the secret token as "GFW_CI_TOKEN" variable in the TravisCI repository setting [1]. Afterwards the build should just work. Things, that might need to be done: * The Windows box can only process a single build at a time. A second Windows build would need to wait until the first finishes. This waiting time and the build time after the wait could exceed the 3h threshold. If this is a problem, then it is likely to happen every day as usually multiple branches are pushed at the same time (pu/next/ master/maint). I cannot test this as my TravisCI account has the 50min timeout. One solution could be to limit the number of concurrent TravisCI jobs [2].

2017-03-06Travis: also test on 32-bit LinuxLibravatar Johannes Schindelin1-0/+30
When Git v2.9.1 was released, it had a bug that showed only on Windows and on 32-bit systems: our assumption that `unsigned long` can hold 64-bit values turned out to be wrong. This could have been caught earlier if we had a Continuous Testing set up that includes a build and test run on 32-bit Linux. Let's do this (and take care of the Windows build later). This patch asks Travis CI to install a Docker image with 32-bit libraries and then goes on to build and test Git using this 32-bit setup.
