The shell script has gotten a little out of hand.

...though if I'd known how much trouble it would be, I probably wouldn't have started doing this. Dealing with the Windows path styles burned way, way more time than it should have. Especially since my local test wasn't a great match for CI because CI uses a vs2015u2 package that I don't have. Anyway, it's ugly but it's working finally.

But I just double-checked with firefox builds, and on 32-bit we use --target=i686-pc-mingw32 --host=i686-pc-mingw32 and on 64-bit we use --target=x86_64-pc-mingw32 --host=x86_64-pc-mingw32. I don't know exactly what effect those flags have, but they do seem to produce the right thing. (Though I'm worried now that the win32 one might now or in the future be a 64-bit build; leaving off the options as the shell build does now seems dangerous.) > > @@ +189,5 @@ > > + env['CC'] = '{CC} -arch i386'.format(**env) > > + env['CXX'] = '{CXX} -arch i386'.format(**env) > > + elif platform.system() != 'Windows': > > + env.setdefault('CC', 'gcc') > > + env.setdefault('CXX', 'g++') > > What the...? Am I looking at the right patch? Why? This is saying the non-Windows default is gcc.

I wish I could move the rest of the gunk to those files, but unless I want to make one file per platform x config x shell configuration x ..., I can't quite.

I think I'll stick with the iteration, because I'd like to preserve the semantics in the comment: # Always run all enabled tests, even if earlier ones failed. But return the # first failed status. The set() would explicitly discard the ordering. In practice, I'm guessing Python would always choose a consistent ordering between runs, so it's not like the behavior would vary much. I could definitely see an argument for sys.exit(max(results)), though. Or perhaps sys.exit(max(results, key=lambda st: abs(st))) to get signal throws. But that would be implying that we have some semantics to our different error codes that we probably don't have, so I'd rather not make that implication. (This isn't completely pedantic, btw -- I think some status codes may get mapped differently to red vs orange on treeherder. So right now adding an earlier orange could obscure a later red. But I don't want to have to depend on that mapping here, so I'd rather just pick the simple "first failure wins".)

Nice! Thanks for the explanation, I didn't realize there was so much riding on the order.

There is a bug here (https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/annotate/4c05938a64a7fde3ac2d7f4493aee1c5f2ad8a0a/js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py#l136) that prevents building arm-sim when autoconf-2.13 does not exist but autoconf2.13 does. The bug is causes by checking if call_alternatives returns a non-zero value, but it will always return None (implicitly). A fix for this issue could be: diff --git a/js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py b/js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py --- a/js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py +++ b/js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py @@ -135,28 +139,32 @@ if args.variant == 'nonunified': # Note that this modifies the current checkout. for dirpath, dirnames, filenames in os.walk(DIR.js_src): if 'moz.build' in filenames: subprocess.check_call(['sed', '-i', 's/UNIFIED_SOURCES/SOURCES/', os.path.join(dirpath, 'moz.build')]) if not args.nobuild: autoconfs = ['autoconf-2.13', 'autoconf2.13', 'autoconf213'] - if call_alternates(autoconfs, [], cwd=DIR.js_src) != 0: + try: + call_alternates(autoconfs, [], cwd=DIR.js_src) + except OSError: logging.error('autoconf failed') sys.exit(1)

I don't follow. call_alternates should never be returning None. It is doing |return subprocess.call(...)| within call_alternates, which should return the return code of the call unless it raises an exception. In your example, autoconf-2.13 doesn't exist, so subprocess.call should throw an OSError, which will cause it to try autoconf2.13, which should run and return its exit code. Are you seeing different behavior?

I'm getting the following output without the fix: smvv@multivac ~/work/leaningtech/gecko-hg/js/src $ (cd ~/work/leaningtech/gecko-hg/; python2.7 js/src/devtools/automation/autospider.py arm-sim) sh: 1: autoconf-2.13: not found ERROR:root:autoconf failed smvv@multivac ~/work/leaningtech/gecko-hg/js/src $ which autoconf2.13 /usr/bin/autoconf2.13 smvv@multivac ~/work/leaningtech/gecko-hg/js/src $ which autoconf-2.13 smvv@multivac ~/work/leaningtech/gecko-hg/js/src $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS Release: 16.04 Codename: xenial

Ah! Ok, is because my Windows fix broke call_alternates. I switched from invoking the binary directly to running it via sh -c. I think that's probably because other things required sh -c so that I could use the right type of paths? I don't see why it's needed here, and in fact it breaks the (unused) command_args parameter since that'll get passed to sh instead of the command. Ugh. Let me try going back to calling it directly and see if a try push gets upset about it. If so, then I'll have to use the return value (it'll be 127 if sh couldn't find the program.) I don't understand why your fix works, though. On my machine, I don't get an OSError at all if I'm running sh. I would have expected the failed autoconf-2.13 to return an error value, then the script to continue on as if the autoconf had succeeded.

Ok, how about this? It converts the shell return of 127 (command not found) into an OSError so it can follow the same path. Even if different systems handle this differently, this should make them the same?

And yet another thing not reviewed by a build system peer, who would have told you autospider.py shouldn't be bothering with autoconf in the first place...

It's a total hack (and it prevents you from using eg parentheses in dnl comments), but it's kind of nice to be able to do cp configure.in configure chmod +x configure

Stop running autoconf.

Oops, shouldn't be doing this on a FIXED bug. Migrating patches to bug 1295751.
