The goal of the libc crate is to have CI running everywhere to have the
strongest guarantees about the definitions that this library contains, and as a
result the CI is pretty complicated and also pretty large! Hopefully this can
serve as a guide through the sea of scripts in this directory and elsewhere in
this project.
# Files
First up, let's talk about the files in this directory:
* `Dockerfile-android`, `android-accept-licenses.sh` -- these two files are
used to build the Docker image that the android CI builder uses. The
`Dockerfile` just installs the Android SDK, NDK, a Rust nightly, Rust target
libraries for Android, and sets up an emulator to run tests in. You can build
a new image with this command (from the root of the project):
docker build -t alexcrichton/rust-libc-test -f ci/Dockerfile-android .
When building a new image contact @alexcrichton to push it to the docker hub
and have libc start using it. This hasn't needed to happen yet, so the process
may be a little involved.
The script here, `android-accept-licenses.sh` is just a helper used to accept
the licenses of the SDK of Android while the docker image is being created.
* `msys2.ps1` - a PowerShell script which is used to install MSYS2 on the
AppVeyor bots. As of this writing MSYS2 isn't installed by default, and this
script will install the right version/arch of msys2 in preparation of using
the contained C compiler to compile C shims.
* `run-travis.sh` - a shell script run by all Travis builders, this is
responsible for setting up the rest of the environment such as installing new
packages, downloading Rust target libraries, etc.
* `run.sh` - the actual script which runs tests for a particular architecture.
Called from the `run-travis.sh` script this will run all tests for the target
specified.
* `cargo-config` - Cargo configuration of linkers to use copied into place by
the `run-travis.sh` script before builds are run.
* `dox.sh` - script called from `run-travis.sh` on only the linux 64-bit nightly
Travis bots to build documentation for this crate.
* `landing-page-*.html` - used by `dox.sh` to generate a landing page for all
architectures' documentation.
# CI Systems
Currently this repository leverages a combination of Travis CI and AppVeyor for
running tests. The triples tested are:
* AppVeyor
* `{i686,x86_64}-pc-windows-{msvc,gnu}`
* Travis
* `{i686,x86_64,mips,aarch64}-unknown-linux-gnu`
* `x86_64-unknown-linux-musl`
* `arm-unknown-linux-gnueabihf`
* `arm-linux-androideabi`
* `{i686,x86_64}-apple-darwin`
The Windows triples are all pretty standard, they just set up their environment
then run tests, no need for downloading any extra target libs (we just download
the right installer). The Intel Linux/OSX builds are similar in that we just
download the right target libs and run tests. Note that the Intel Linux/OSX
builds are run on stable/beta/nightly, but are the only ones that do so.
The remaining architectures look like:
* Android runs in a docker image with an emulator, the NDK, and the SDK already
set up (see `Dockerfile-android`). The entire build happens within the docker
image.
* The MIPS, ARM, and AArch64 builds all use QEMU to run the generated binary to
actually verify the tests pass.
* The MUSL build just has to download a MUSL compiler and target libraries and
then otherwise runs tests normally.
Hopefully that's at least somewhat of an introduction to everything going on
here, and feel free to ping @alexcrichton with questions!
