when *SSL_VERSION="latest" behaviour was introduced, it seems to be fine
for development branches, but too intrusive for stable branches.
let us limit "latest" semantic only for development builds, if branch name
contains "haproxy-" it is supposed to be stable branch, no latest openssl
should be taken
[wla: must be backported as far as 2.6]

Some occasional builds fail only on a specific platform and being able
to figure the exact compiler version used there is crucial. It's not
easy to guess from the rest of the output, so let's add it before the
platform-specific defines, which suit the same needs.
This enables DEBUG_MEMORY_POOLS and DEBUG_POOL_INTEGRITY so that by
default the tests run under stricter checks, which are likely to
catch more bugs. Note that these ones are permanently used in prod
on haproxy.org.
step condition "if: ${{ !failure() }}" was added in 2ef4c7c843
during my experiments. As Tim Düsterhus mentioned, that condition is default and may be omitted.
this is mostly cleanup, issue is minor. If build failed, VTest execution
tried to be performed as well as VTest result show. This change ignores
those steps if build failed.
Sometimes figuring what differs between platforms is useful to fix
build issues, to decide what ifdef to add for example. Let's always
call $CC -dM -E- before starting make.
Using 'sudo' required quite a few workarounds in various places. Setting an
explicit 'ulimit -n' removes the requirement for 'sudo', resulting in a cleaner
workflow configuration.
The issue with VTest not building properly in gcc is fixed since commit
vtest/VTest@0730540c43. Revert the patch to keep
the CI configuration simple.
This reverts commit e61f53eb44.
Both the source file and the dummy library are now at the same place.
Maybe the build howto could be moved there as well to make things even
cleaner.
The Makefile, MAINTAINERS, doc, and vtest matrix were updated.
As of January, 11th the macOS builds fail due to regression introduced in
VTest. This patch pins VTest to the newest good commit.
This patch should be reverted once VTest's 'master' is stable again.
see vtest/VTest#26
This is a preparation to later run some matrix entries on schedule only.
Within the matrix.py script it can now be detected whether the workflow is
running on schedule by using:
if build_type == "schedule":
matrix.append(...)
Travis is becoming overall increasingly unreliable lately. We've already
seen that the timing sensitive tests regularly fail and thus they were
disabled.
Additionally they recently announced a new pricing model that caps the number
of minutes for Open Source projects:

GitHub Actions VMs are working well, possibly allowing to use custom runners
for special tasks in the future.
In addition to this better performance its workflow configuration language
is more expressive compared to the Travis CI one. Specifically the build
matrix does not need to be specified in YAML. Instead it can be generated
ad-hoc using a script. This allows us to cleanly define the various build
configurations without having an unreadable 80 line mess where the flags
are inconsistently activated. As an example in the current Travis CI
configuration the prometheus exporter is tested together with LibreSSL 2.9.2
for whatever reason.
In addition to all the previous points the UI of Travis is not that nice.
On GitHub you are just seeing that "Travis failed" without any details which
exact job failed. This requires you to visit the slow Travis page and look
up the details there. GitHub Actions creates a single entry for each
configuration that is tested, allowing you to see the details without needing
to leave GitHub.
This new GitHub Actions workflow aims to reproduce the configurations tested
in Travis. It comes close, but is not completely there, yet. Consider this
patch a proof of concept that will evolve in the future, ideally with Ilya's
expertise.
The current configurations are as follows. Each one is tested with both gcc
and clang.
- All features disabled (no USE flags)
- All features enabled (all USE flags)
- Standalone test of each of the supported compression libraries:
- USE_ZLIB=1
- USE_SLZ=1
- Standalone test of various SSL libraries:
- stock (the SSL installed by default on the VM)
- OpenSSL 1.0.2u
- LibreSSL 2.9.2, 3.0.2, 3.1.1
- All features enabled with ASAN (clang only)
Future additions of new tests should take care to not test unrelated stuff.
Instead a distinct configuration should be added.
Additionally there is a Mac OS test with clang and all features disabled.
Known issues:
- Apparently the git commit is not properly detected during build. The HEAD
currently shows as 2.4-dev0.
