Hi all,
Eyal and I sat together to analyse and tweak the engine CI and this is what we came up with:
- dao test excludes updated - exclude dal/src/main/bundles from invoking dao tests A trivial update of validation messages without any db change would trigger dao test without any need. This is one less job run for lots of patches. This change is effective now.
I really recommend merging this into the standard ci scripts and doing the trigger/don't trigger stuff there
Yea, thats the plan (discussed on another thread) but since it requires some logic added of excluding certain path we'll need to think how best to write it in check-patch.sh.
- Spare CI re-run on trivial rebases Gerrit trigger supports suppressing itself if the change to the tree
was
trivial. Most of the waste of resources(time and IO :) ) is around rebasing a change and waiting for CI to rerun. if Change1 is ci+1 and Change2 is ci+1 the chances that they will break CI together is very small and taking that risk is most probably worth it due to the huge resources waste
This is not exactly how it works, trivial rebases don't care if the previous patch had ci+1 or not, it just means that the rebase did not get any conflicts, that most of the time is not related to the tests working or not (it might be that someone change a method on another file, that your patch is using and it will be a trivial rebase and break the tests/compile).
Even so, I think its worth doing a test for a limited amount of time (1 week?) while everyone is aware of it and to see if it cause errors, the chances of 2 people working on the same file exactly during the same time and one change failing another is slim (If someone thinks otherwise and can give an example I'd be happy to hear), But since this is a gray area which we don't really know, I think its worth the test.
I don't really recommend skipping them. What you might meant is non-code changes, those are changes that only change the commit message, for example, if you have a patch, and you want to fix a typo in the commit message, currently that small commit message fix will require and trigger a ci run, while when skipping the non-code changes, it will not needed.
This change isn't effective yet - *Please reply here* if you agree or not to make this change available.
All of this is 'master' - 3.6 will follow if we will agree on activating that change.
Thanks, Roy
