[Buildroot] [PATCH v3 2/2] utils/test-pkg: add gitlab-ci support

Sat Jun 26 22:38:40 UTC 2021


The gitlab-ci support in test-pkg allows to parallelize the test-pkg
work into several gitlab jobs. It's much faster than local serialized
testing.

The current generate-gitlab-ci-yml script is updated to generate a
gitlab-ci pipeline using the newly introduced .test_pkg job template.

The test-pkg script is executed in the generate-gitlab-ci job to
create the list of jobs in the child-pipeline. There is no need to
execute test-pkg locally. But we need to add a new --generate-only (-g)
option to generate .config file for each toolchains without building
them. All configuration files are kept as gitlab artifacts for the
child-pipeline jobs.
(We can't keep br-test-pkg directory due to a 5 Mo size limit in gitlab)

Only valid toolchains are added to the child-pipeline job list.

To execute test-pkg we need to provide a config snippet to select
the package we want to test. The config snippet must be added to the
last commit log below the line "test-pkg config:"
The config snipped is retrieved in generate-gitlab-ci job using
CI_COMMIT_DESCRIPTION gitlab variable.

Since the test-pkg script is executed from generate-gitlab-ci job in
parent pipeline, we have to enable the parent's artifacts download
from the child-pipeline jobs [1]. This artifact contains the
br-test-pkg directory that contains all .config files.

v3: Implement Arnout's review: http://lists.busybox.net/pipermail/buildroot/2021-May/310656.html
    Enable artifacts download from child-pipeline

v2: Rework this patch following Arnout review
    use CI_COMMIT_DESCRIPTION
    remove .config from artifacts but keep images directory since
    it can be useful for further issue investigation
    use the "br-test-pkg" prefix for test-pkg jobs
