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.
These no longer fail; they were fixed in ffmpeg in commit
76b33704b628248d77ed61cbef9ecd9430a4b6c5 in July 2022; we currently
test a pinned 6.0 release, where this fix is included.
This reduces the differences if using a proper release tarball
instead of an artifact from an earlier step (if testing parts of
the workflow by modifying it).
Keep this disabled by default (since it takes a fair amount of time
and has good test coverage upstream), but including it in disabled
form so that it's easy to enable temporarily for testing occasionally.
Libcxx does test the mingw configuration in their own CI (with an older
pinned release of the compiler), so this is mostly redundant, and
primarily relevant for testing that the very latest compiler (and
python setup) works for the tests.
