36<p>Volunters can provade there build machines to work as slave builders to
37 public LLVM Buildbot. Below desrcibed recommended steps to implement this
38 task.</p>
39
40<p>The steps are roughly as follows:</p>
41
42<ol>
43 <li><p>Check the existing build configurations to make sure the one you are
44 interested in is not covered yet or gets built on your computer much
45 faster than existing one. We prefer faster builds so developers will get
46 feedback sooner after changes get committed.</p></li>
47
48 <li><p>The computer you will be registering with the LLVM buildbot
49 infrastructure should have all dependencies installed and you can
50 actually build your configuration successfully. You can build multiple
51 configurations on one computer.</p></li>
52
53 <li><p>Install buildslave (currently we are using buildbot version 0.8.5).
54 Depending on the platform, buildslave could be available to download and
55 install with your packet manager, or you can download it directly from
56 <tt>http://trac.buildbot.net/</tt> and install it manually.</p></li>
57
58 <li><p>Create a designated user account your buildslave will be running
59 under.</p></li>
60
61 <li><p>Choose the buildslave root directory (all builds will be placed under
62 it), buildslave access name and password the build master will be using
63 to authenticate your build slave.</p></li>
64
65 <li><p>Then create a build slave in context of that buildslave account.
66 Point it to the <tt>lab.llvm.org port 9990</tt><br />
67 (see <tt>http://buildbot.net/buildbot/docs/current/full.html#creating-a-slave</tt>
68 for more details) by running the following command:
69 <div class="doc_code">
70 <pre>
71 $ buildslave create-slave <i>buildslave-root-directory</i> lab.llvm.org: 9990 \
72 <i>buildslave-access-name buildslave-access-password</i>
73 </pre></div></p></li>
74
75 <li><p>Fill the build slave description and admin name/e-mail.
76 Here is an example of the build slave description:
77 <div class="doc_code">
78 <pre>
79 Windows 7 x64
80 Core i7 (2.66GHz), 16GB of RAM
81
82 g++.exe (TDM-1 mingw32) 4.4.0
83 GNU Binutils 2.19.1
84 cmake version 2.8.4
85 Microsoft(R) 32-bit C/C++ Optimizing Compiler Version 16.00.40219.01 for 80x86
86 </pre></div></p></li>
87
88 <li><p>Make sure you can actually start the buildslave successfully. Then set
89 up your build slave to start automatically at the start up time.
90 See buildbot manual for help.</p></li>
91
92 <li><p>Send a patch which adds your build slave and builder to zorg.<br />
93 * slaves are added to<br />
94<tt>http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/zorg/trunk/buildbot/osuosl/master/config/slaves.py</tt><br />
95 * builders are added to<br />
96<tt>http://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/zorg/trunk/buildbot/osuosl/master/config/builders.py</tt></p></li>
97
98 <li><p>Then send the buildslave access name and password directly to
99 <a href="mailto:gkistanova@gmail.com">Galina Kistanova</a>
100
101 <li><p>Finally, the end!</p></li>
