It's not clear why this happens. But since recently in our gitlab-ci,
all the Fedora machines will fail. It happens in the step
check_run_clean 6 && test $IS_FEDORA = 1 -o $IS_CENTOS = 1 && ./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -g -w crypto_gnutls -w debug -w iwd -w test -W meson
which explains why it only affects Fedora configurations.
It does not always fail, but the probability of failure is high.
The failure is:
...
rm -f et.gmo && /usr/bin/msgmerge --for-msgfmt -o et.1po et.po NetworkManager.pot && /usr/bin/msgfmt -c --statistics --verbose -o et.gmo et.1po && rm -f et.1po
libgomp: Thread creation failed: Resource temporarily unavailable
make[3]: *** [Makefile:383: et.gmo] Error 1
Maybe some new resource restricting in gitlab. Let's add this workaround.
I don't really understand the cause, but this seems to avoid it, which is
good enough for me.
When we run `NM_TEST_SELECT_RUN=x ./.gitlab-ci/run-test.sh` to run one
step only, we should not do the final clean, so that the build artifacts
are preserved.
When the test in gitlab-ci fails, you might want to rerun the test
on your machine. You fire up podman, run "./.gitlab-ci/*-install.sh"
and "./.gitlab-ci/run-test.sh".
Make it possible to manually select parts that are tested by
"run-test.sh" by setting NM_TEST_SELECT_RUN. Otherwise, if you want to
test a particular configuration, you either have to run all earlier
steps (which takes a long time and can even be broken) or you have
to manually patch the file.
For example,
NM_TEST_SELECT_RUN=6 ./.gitlab-ci/run-test.sh
We want to follow current Fedora, so update to f37.
Also, we now use clang-format from Fedora 37 release, so the default
image in gitlab-ci must match, because that image is used for the
"check-tree" test.
Instead, hack gettext's Makefile.
gettext has an issue with parallel make. See [1] and [2].
Reproduce with:
git reset --hard &&
git clean -fdx &&
NOCONFIGURE=yes ./autogen.sh &&
./configure --enable-gtk-doc --enable-introspection &&
make -j distcheck V=1
We worked around this by setting "DIST_DEPENDS_ON_UPDATE_PO = yes",
however that (obviously) results in regenerating source files during
dist. "Source files" in the sense that the po files are commited to git
and get distributed in the release. Doing this is very ugly.
In particular it's ugly, because `make -C po update-po` is not reproducible
and the output depends on the current time (*had one job*).
Otherwise, we could just regenerate the files before doing a release.
This means, running "release.sh" script ends up with a dirty tree
afterwards. Also, the distributed po files are not the ones from the source
tree when we did the release. Also, since "release.sh rc1" does two distributions
(once for the rc1 and once for the next devel snapshot), the commit for the
second distribution will have a large diff for the po files.
This reverts commit 978d8eb699 ('po: make dist depend on update-po')
and hacks around the problem.

Without it, the build artifacts were deleted before getting archived.
It means, the tarball and the docs were no longer archived and no
pages on gitlab no longer updated.

If we have a non-clean working directory after do_clean(), that
is a bug and something we need to investigate. Print information
to make that easier to debug.
Currently, for all tests we have python3 installed. So effectively,
even on CentOS 7, we would test the build with python3 only.
The package build on CentOS7/epel7 however uses python2. This happens
for example for our copr builds.
Also test that configuration in gitlab-ci.
In particular, `dpkg -l` likes to show a pager, when you are on the
terminal. Being on the terminal happens, if you try to reproduce
a test on your own container. So let's avoid that.
Previously, autotools would detect whether we have "black"
in the path. And if so, it would check formatting during `make check`.
That's problematic. When I run `./contrib/fedora/rpm/build_clean.sh -w test`
in certain cases, it would pick up black, but then fail with
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/black", line 5, in <module>
from black import patched_main
File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/black.py", line 42, in <module>
from attr import dataclass, evolve, Factory
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'attr'
make[3]: *** [Makefile:21658: check-python-black] Error 1
That's an installation error of black, but still, during package build
there is no need to check the formatting. We could export
`NMTST_SKIP_PYTHON_BLACK=1` to prevent it, but it's still unnecessary.
We check proper formatting in gitlab-ci. That is enough, it doesn't
need to run during `make check`. In particular, because `black .`
takes 1.5 seconds on my machine.
During the test, we `tee` the output to a log file in "/tmp".
We do that, because the test script cleans the working directory
several times, so the file cannot reside there.
Afterwards, we need to move the file back into the git-tree, so that
gitlab can archive it.
Previously that was done by "after_script", but the "after_script" may not
see the same "/tmp" as the test run ([1]). This needs to be done as part of the
"script" step.
[1] https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/ci/yaml/#after_script
The "check-{patch,tree}" jobs use the same container as the default
test on Fedora ("pages_build", which also builds our documentation).
Previously, we thus extended "t_fedora:35". But that way we also
got things that we didn't want (.nm_artifacts and .build@template).
Solve this differently, by letting the jobs directly define what they
need. It's not much more, than extending "t_fedora:35" and workaround
to drop stuff we don't want.
Our test is long and verbose. The output gets truncated after
a few megabytes, but sometimes it's interesting to see what
happens afterwards. Redirect also to a file and archive it.
The output of our test scripts is captured by gitlab. It does however
sanitize things that look like secrets. So it was reasonably save
to call `env` from within the test script.
Next, we will redirect (`tee`) the output of the test script to a
file and archive it. When we do that, the output does not get sanitized
and can be downloaded from the artifacts page.
Stop running `env` as part of the test script. Do it instead as a
separate step. After all, it is useful to see the environment variables
of the test. But sanitized.
It's true, that our gitlab-ci test mostly consists of building NetworkManager.
Hence the name of the script was not entirely wrong. But it's not only building.
I think "run-test.sh" is a much better name. Rename.
These containers are ancient. Also, when we update ci-templates
they will no longer build (because then a different container hub
will be used, which doesn't contain those images). Drop them.
"nm-code-format.sh" is going to change the default behavior from "-n" to
"-i", that is, from check-only to reformat. Explicitly pass "-n" where
we want it.
It fails to install the container. Disable it, until it is more
stable.
