| <p>Volunteers can provide their build machines to work as build slaves to |
| public LLVM Buildbot.</p> |
| |
| <p>Here are the steps you can follow to do so:</p> |
| |
| <ol> |
| <li><p>Check the existing build configurations to make sure the one you are |
| interested in is not covered yet or gets built on your computer much |
| faster than on the existing one. We prefer faster builds so developers |
| will get feedback sooner after changes get committed.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>The computer you will be registering with the LLVM buildbot |
| infrastructure should have all dependencies installed and you can |
| actually build your configuration successfully. Please check what degree |
| of parallelism (-j param) would give the fastest build. |
| You can build multiple configurations on one computer.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Install buildslave (currently we are using buildbot version 0.8.5). |
| Depending on the platform, buildslave could be available to download and |
| install with your packet manager, or you can download it directly from |
| <a href="http://trac.buildbot.net">http://trac.buildbot.net</a> and |
| install it manually.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Create a designated user account, your buildslave will be running |
| under, and set appropriate permissions.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Choose the buildslave root directory (all builds will be placed under |
| it), buildslave access name and password the build master will be using |
| to authenticate your buildslave.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Create a buildslave in context of that buildslave account. |
| Point it to the <b>lab.llvm.org</b> port <b>9990</b> (see |
| <a href="http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/current/full.html#creating-a-slave"> |
| Buildbot documentation, Creating a slave</a> |
| for more details) by running the following command:</p> |
| |
| <div class="doc_code"> |
| <pre> |
| $ buildslave create-slave <i>buildslave-root-directory</i> \ |
| lab.llvm.org:9990 \ |
| <i>buildslave-access-name buildslave-access-password</i> |
| </pre> |
| </div></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Fill the buildslave description and admin name/e-mail. |
| Here is an example of the buildslave description:</p> |
| |
| <div class="doc_code"> |
| <pre> |
| Windows 7 x64 |
| Core i7 (2.66GHz), 16GB of RAM |
| |
| g++.exe (TDM-1 mingw32) 4.4.0 |
| GNU Binutils 2.19.1 |
| cmake version 2.8.4 |
| Microsoft(R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 16.00.40219.01 for 80x86 |
| </pre> |
| </div></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Make sure you can actually start the buildslave successfully. Then set |
| up your buildslave to start automatically at the start up time. |
| See the buildbot documentation for help. |
| You may want to restart your computer to see if it works.</p></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Send a patch which adds your build slave and your builder to zorg.</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>slaves are added to |
| <tt>buildbot/osuosl/master/config/slaves.py</tt></li> |
| <li>builders are added to |
| <tt>buildbot/osuosl/master/config/builders.py</tt></li> |
| </ul></li> |
| |
| <li><p>Send the buildslave access name and the access password directly |
| to <a href="mailto:gkistanova@gmail.com">Galina Kistanova</a>, and wait |
| till she will let you know that your changes are applied and buildmaster |
| is reconfigured.</p> |
| |
| <li><p>Check the status of your buildslave on the |
| <a href="http://lab.llvm.org:8011/waterfall">Waterfall Display</a> |
| to make sure it is connected, and |
| <a href="http://lab.llvm.org:8011/buildslaves/your-buildslave-name"> |
| http://lab.llvm.org:8011/buildslaves/<your-buildslave-name></a> |
| to see if administrator contact and slave information are correct.</p> |
| </li> |
| |
| <li><p>Wait for the first build to succeed and enjoy.</p></li> |
| </ol> |
