- Split the monolithic ci-script.bash into ci-build.bash and
ci-test.bash, with shared setup in ci-common.bash.
- Pass job parameters as explicit command-line options rather than
environment variables (--compiler, --prefix, --suite, --asan,
--gcov, --reloc, --ccwarn).
- Detect the host OS and distribution at runtime (uname,
/etc/os-release) instead of the legacy Travis-era CI_OS_NAME,
CI_RUNS_ON and CI_BUILD_STAGE_NAME variables.
- Remove dead code: FreeBSD support, Windows wavediff install, the
unused CI_COMMIT variable, and various redundant operations.
- Inline the single-entry build-job matrices.
- Rename osx to macOS
- Refuse to run these ci scripts outside GitHub Actions to protect
developer checkouts.
Add an explicit 'sha' parameter to reusable-build, to define which
commit to build. This will be needed for PR coverage jobs. Consequently
use the 'archive' output from reusable-build to simplify retrieving the
resulting artifact in dependent jobs. Also fetch full history in
coverage builds.
Chores:
- Remove ci-ccache-maint. This has never been useful and is just cruft.
- Remove then unused CI_COMMIT
- Change job names so they come out nicer in the web views
- Make os-name input to reusable-build always explicit
Improvements:
- Have at most build-test job in progress per branch
- Cancel in-progress build-test jobs on PRs
- In forks (that is, not on 'verilator/verilator'), cancel any
in-progress build-test jobs on push to the branch
To run scheduled instances of the RTLMeter or coverage workflows, the
ENABLE_SCHEDULED_JOBS variable must explicitly be set to 'true' in the
repository settings. This enables each fork to decide whether to run the
scheduled instances or not.
Prep for adding more CI targets. Building dbg and opt in the same job
(as standard) simplifies caching, debugging and artifact handling. With
ccache it should not take much longer either. Also removes the need to
re-configure in the test job.
