This makes the built toolchain usable outside of MSYS2 too.
For running tests, this has another very subtle effect.
If the toolchain is built in the MSYS2 clang64 environment, the
compiler binary depends on libc++.dll. This DLL is found in $PATH,
in /clang64/bin.
When building/running tests, the current working directory will be
e.g. llvm-mingw/test/x86_64. At some point while building/running
tests, the test makefile will copy the llvm-mingw toolchain's
runtime DLLs into this directory in order to be able to execute those
newly built binaries. This also includes another, different libc++.dll.
When a libc++.dll exists in the current directory, this is preferred
over the one found further back in $PATH in /clang64/bin. As this
file is copied in parallel with other build jobs that might be
doing compilation, those compilation processes may end up loading
this other DLL. If fully copied it probably shouldn't be an issue,
but if not fully copied yet, who knows what might happen.
By making sure that there is a libc++.dll in the same directory as
the toolchain executables (rather than expecting it to be found
further back in $PATH), we ensure that this DLL is loaded and used
instead of the one in the current directory.
This should fix stray errors when running tests in the clang64
environment.
This skips test that use a lot of memory. In particular, there's
one test that would use up to 6.8 GB of memory, while the GitHub
Actions runners only have 8 GB of memory available.
This parameter was added in 122064a6303eb9c06e0af231f5a4ce145d9a2e67
in the llvm-project main branch, and backported to 17.x in
aa03fba83b17bbfcd9ed869efed2818b503875d6.
This allows seeing the names of tests as they are executed, making
the intermediate log output on github actions more useful. It
also makes it easier to correlate test issues between tests as
they are executed (e.g. if one test causes another one to run out
of memory).
Also run with --time-tests, allowing identifying slow tests.
This was already applied in the separate libcxx test job added in
7483eae1821766a0f84dbd96f5619058f7065008; this backports the change
into the test job in the main build file.
Ninja isn't documented as one of the tools provided by the CI runner
images, but it used to be available implicitly installed before
in the windows-2022 images. Since the 20230918.1.0 image update,
it no longer is available out of the box; see
https://github.com/actions/runner-images/issues/8343.
Disable Python, to make the LLDB executables more portable,
so they don't rely on whatever version might have been installed on
the GitHub Actions runner.
These tests should now all pass on both architectures; the
check-asan tests for the static CRT are skipped automatically,
the failures in check-interception have been fixed by compiling
the tests with the --large-address-aware flag, and the
check-asan-dynamic tests on i686 have been fixed - all by
Alvin Wong.
The fewer dynamic library dependencies we have, the easier it is
to run the binaries on other linux distributions than the one it
was built on.
In the docker based releases, these libraries haven't been installed
and thus haven't been used so far.
The docker based releases haven't linked against zlib though, but
keep linking against that, since that should have a quite stable
ABI and not cause much binary compatibility issues.
This should make the produced artifact more widely compatible.
Releases built with release.sh with the dockerfile are currently
based on Ubuntu 18.04 though, and are more shielded from potential
extra libraries that are found during the build.
For non scheduled builds, those env variables are just left empty.
This is much neater than using the "versions" file, and uses much
fewer lines of code.
We still probably want to bundle a file labelling what versions
it contains in the built packages though; give that file a
.txt suffix.
These test suites now pass in the latest git main.
This target isn't run automatically anywhere, but in case the
target is enabled to run the tests, include the libcxxabi and libunwind
test suites too.
