- in unittest step, explicitly preserve kyua.log or atf.out
- preserve kyua results database if present
- generate HTML report from kyua results if available
Using fixed make concurrency settings on all runners is not flexible and
requires .gitlab-ci.yml to be modified each time tweaking these settings
is needed. Use environment variables which are expected to be set by
the runner (defaulting to 1 in case they are not set) for controlling
make concurrency.
Our current CI configuration causes ccache data to be zipped after each
job and also included in build artifacts, which will quickly become
infeasible as ccache data grows. Instead of asking gitlab-runner to
preserve ccache data between jobs, keep a separate ccache directory on
each runner, expecting it to be accessible at /ccache when a CI job is
run. As this requires gitlab-runner to be configured in a specific way,
do not use ccache at all in case the ccache directory is not found while
building.
- turn off some of the build tests
- increase test threads to 8
- build with --disable-static
- suppress the non-system tests under bin/tests (timers, task, etc)
- add CHANGES note
- update copyrights and license headers
- add -j to the make commands in .gitlab-ci.yml to take
advantage of parallelization in the gitlab CI process
