because this file is a chronological history of port builds that have
failed, the files listed may not be present in the current set of
error logs, and we currently have no easy way to find the most recent
failure log to use instead.
i386-5-latest that are linked to from the index.html are symlinks to
dated directories (e.5.`date`), so the URLs in the error reports will
expire with the start of the next build when the symlink is repointed.
This change makes the URLs in the error reports use the realpath of
the target file, so they do not expire.
* Clients no longer have ssh access to the master, so we need to
push/pull everything on the client from here. This means we need to
know where the build took place so we can go in and get the files
after it finishes. Introduce the claim-chroot script which
atomically claims a free chroot directory on the host and returns
the name. This directory is later populated by the portbuild script
if it does not already contain an extracted bindist.
* Use the per-node portbuild.$(hostname) config file to decide where
in the filesystem to claim the chroot on the build host.
* If a port failed unexpectedly (i.e. is not marked BROKEN), or if
something strange happened when trying to pull in build results from
a client, then send me email (XXX should be configurable).
* Clean up after the build finishes and we have everything we need, by
dispatching the clean-chroot script on the client.
if requested (".keep" file in the port directory), no matter where
we fail.
* Add package dependencies before the corresponding build stage
(e.g. FETCH_DEPENDS before 'make fetch'), and remove them again
afterwards. This allows us to catch ports that list their
dependencies too early/late.
* No need to check for set[ug]id files here, the security-check target
in bsd.port.mk does it for us.
* Exclude some more directories and files from showing up in the mtree
before/after comparison, to trim down the false-positive in the
pkg-plist check.
* Other minor changes
it's done properly^Wbetter in makeparallel
* Script accepts new arguments:
-nodoccvs: skip cvs update of the doc tree
-trybroken: try to build BROKEN ports (off by default because the
i386 cluster is fast enough now that when doing incremental builds we
were spending most of the time rebuilding things we know are probably
going to fail anyway. Conversely, the other clusters are slow enough
that we also usually don't want to waste time on BROKEN ports).
-incremental: compare the interesting fields of the new INDEX with
the previous one, remove packages and log files for the old ports that
have changed, and rebuild the rest. This substantially cuts down on
build times since we don't rebuild ports that we know have not
changed. XXX checkpoint of work-in-progress, not yet working as
committed.
* When setting up the nodes, read in per-node config files
("portbuild.$(hostname)") before dispatching the setupnode script on
each node. For disconnected nodes (which don't mount the master via
NFS), we also rsync the interesting files required by the builds
(ports/src/doc trees, bindist tarballs, scripts) into place on the
client. They will be mounted locally via nullfs in the build chroots.
* Break out the restricted.sh generation into a makerestr script so it
can be called manually as needed.
* Remove the -nocvsup argument which has been unused for a long time.
* For now, don't prune the list of failed ports with prunefail,
since when -trybroken is not specified, every BROKEN port ends up in
the duds file (so the build is skipped), and as a result we would
prune almost everything from the list of failed ports. XXX
prunefailure should be run conditionally on -trybroken, or I should
find a way to prune in both cases.
* Don't run index in the background, it was thrashing against makeduds
and not saving any time by doing it concurrently.
* Build with 'make quickports all' to kick off the quickports builds
earlier.
* Delete restricted and/or cdrom distfiles *after* post-processing the
distfiles, otherwise the script doesn't remove any of them since
they're not in the expected place.
* Miscellaneous other minor changes and cleanups
tells us whether the node has NFS access to the master.
* Also copy the bindist-$(hostname).tar file to allow local
customization of the build chroots (e.g. resolv.conf and make.conf
files for disconnected systems)
* For disconnected hosts, we don't copy the bindist files from the
master, but just set up the local directories and let the server rsync
them into place later. Also set up dangling symlinks to the bindist
files in the build area, which will be filled in by the server too (in
the NFS case it makes sense to cache the bindist files locally to
avoid extra NFS traffic, but here we know the file is local so a
symlink is fine)
* Remove an apparently spurious 'killall fetch' that snuck in for what
were probably transient reasons.
* Forcibly clean up old chroot directories since we are preparing to
start another build and don't want old (possibly orphaned) builds to
skew the job scheduling or use up resources.
host), specified by disconnected=1 in portbuild.$(hostname) file.
These do not mount via NFS, so we need to maintain a local copy of
things needed by the build (like the ports/src/doc trees) on the build
host, which are mounted into the chroot by read-only nullfs. These
local files are maintained in the dopackages script via rsync.
* Download packages via http instead of NFS. Allow fetching via a
local http proxy (http_proxy variable in per-node
portbuild.$(hostname) file). Caching package dependencies saves about
85% of package fetches and similar reduction in package fetch traffic
by byte count.
* Support a per-node tarball (bindist-$(hostname).tar) to customize
the build chroots. This is used for things like local resolv.conf and
make.conf files on disconnected nodes.
* Make sure we don't use a chroot until it is finished extracting.
* Don't set '.' in PATH; this is bad practise, and fortunately nothing
seems to rely on it.
* Only try to build broken packages if requested
* Try harder to unmount leftover linprocfs mounts in the chroot, by copying
in the 5.x mount binary and supporting libraries from the host system.
The 5.x mount is able to unmount by FSID in situations where the 4.x umount
becomes confused.
* Don't clean up when we are signalled, that is done by the build
master from outside.
* Suppress some code relating to jail builds, which are not yet ready
for use.
* Don't push results of the build back to the master; the master now
pulls them from the client when the build completes. Clients no
longer need ssh access into the master; this is good for security as
well as significantly reducing the load on the master since it is not
thrashed by dozens of sshd processes.
advantage is that here we know the value of PKGSUFFIX (.tgz/.tbz) for
the build via buildenv.
* Add a list of 'quickports', which are ports with long dependency chains
that we should kick off straight away to try and avoid bottlenecks later
on when most of the cluster idles waiting for one or two ports to build.
Ideally we'd build dependencies of these ports exclusively first and only
build other ports when we run out (i.e. a build slot becomes free), but I
couldn't work out how to do this. As a compromise, we now do
'make -k -j<#> quickports all' which doesn't give quite as high a
priority to the quickports (i.e. we also build other ports from the
beginning while there are quickport dependencies still to build), but is
better than nothing.
* Pass in the FETCH/EXTRACT/PATCH/BUILD/RUN_DEPENDS separately via env
variables when dispatching a job. This allows us to add and remove
the dependencies at the corresponding build stage to catch ports
with dependencies listed too early/late.
sure we don't try and schedule jobs on it even if all other machines are
busy
* Remove sleep in outer loop, this isn't needed or worthwhile now that there
are so many machines being monitored
for INDEX builds [1]
* Remove the parallel target from Makefile; this is heavily tied to
the package build cluster and can be better done in the makeparallel
script (commit to follow) [2]
* Extend the format of INDEX to separately list the
EXTRACT/PATCH/FETCH_DEPENDS instead of lumping them all in together
with BUILD_DEPENDS. The three new fields are appended to the end of
the record in that order. [2]
* Change BROKEN to IGNORE in BROKEN_WITH_MYSQL failure code [3]
* Support non-default PREFIX for perl 5.00503 [5]
* Use pkg_info -I instead of ls when searching for conflicts [6]
* Allow local customization of the port subdirectories by including
${.CURDIR}/Makefile.local in bsd.subdir.mk if it exists [7]
* Fix 'make search' when ${PORTSDIR} is a symlink to a directory name
containing extended regexp metacharacters [8]

This script is the primary starting point for a package build. Symlinks
should be created in the form of dopackages.${branch} -> dopackages.wrapper
where ${branch} is currently one of 4, 4-exp, or 5. This script takes the
place of the unofficial (i.e. uncommitted) dopackages.steveX scripts.
