Currently CI builds can fail spuriously during the LLVM build (#39003). I
believe this is due to sccache, and I believe that in turn was due to the fact
that the sccache server used to just be a raw mio server. Historically raw mio
servers are quite complicated to get right, but this is why we built Tokio! The
sccache server has been migrated to Tokio which I suspect would fix any latent
issues.
I have no confirmation of this (never been able to reproduce the deadlock
locally), but my hunch is that updating sccache to the master branch will fix
the timeouts during the LLVM build.
The binaries previously came from Gecko's infrastructure, but I've built new
ones by hand for Win/Mac/Linux and uploaded them to our CI bucket.
In the long run we want to separate out the dist builders from the test
builders. This provides us leeway to expand the dist builders with more tools
(e.g. Cargo and the RLS) without impacting cycle times.
Currently the Travis dist builders double-up the platforms they provide builds
for, so I figured we could try that out for MSVC as well. This commit adds a new
AppVeyor builder which runs a dist for all the MSVC targets:
* x86_64-pc-windows-msvc
* i686-pc-windows-msvc
* i586-pc-windows-msvc
If this takes too long and/or times out we'll need to split this up. In any case
we're going to need more capacity from AppVeyor no matter what becaue the two
pc-windows-gnu targets can't cross compile so we need at least 2 more builders
no matter what.
travis: Add builders without assertions
This commit adds three new builders, one OSX, one Linux, and one MSVC, which
will produce "nightlies" with LLVM assertions disabled. Currently all nightly
releases have LLVM assertions enabled to catch bugs before they reach the
beta/stable channels. The beta/stable channels, however, do not have LLVM
assertions enabled.
Unfortunately though projects like Servo are stuck on nightlies for the near
future at least and are also suffering very long compile times. The purpose of
this commit is to provide artifacts to these projects which are not distributed
through normal channels (e.g. rustup) but are provided for developers to use
locally if need be.
Logistically these builds will all be uploaded to `rustc-builds-alt` instead of
the `rustc-builds` folder of the `rust-lang-ci` bucket. These builds will stay
there forever (until cleaned out if necessary) and there are no plans to
integrate this with rustup and/or the official release process.

Previously we only uploaded tarballs, but this modifies Travis/AppVeyor to
upload everything. We shouldn't have anything else in there to worry about and
otherwise we need to be sure to pick up pkg/msi/exe installers.
This commit adds a new flag to the configure script,
`--enable-extended`, which is intended for specifying a desire to
compile the full suite of Rust tools such as Cargo, the RLS, etc. This
is also an indication that the build system should create combined
installers such as the pkg/exe/msi artifacts.
Currently the `--enable-extended` flag just indicates that combined
installers should be built, and Cargo is itself not compiled just yet
but rather only downloaded from its location. The intention here is to
quickly get to feature parity with the current release process and then
we can start improving it afterwards.
All new files in this PR inside `src/etc/installer` are copied from the
rust-packaging repository.
travis: Stop uploading sha256 files
We'll generate these later in the build process and otherwise they could just
cause spurious failures with files overwriting one another.
cc #38531
This is a target that we're shipping today, so this commit adds this matrix
entry to AppVeyor. This reuses the existing i686 MSVC matrix entry as it's
currently finishing about a half hour under two hours, which should hopefully
give it enough extra time to run this test suite.
This commit starts adding the infrastructure for uploading release artifacts
from AppVeyor/Travis on each commit. The idea is that eventually we'll upload a
full release to AppVeyor/Travis in accordance with plans [outlined earlier].
Right now this configures Travis/Appveyor to upload all tarballs in the `dist`
directory, and various images are updated to actually produce tarballs in these
directories. These are nowhere near ready to be actual release artifacts, but
this should allow us to play around with it and test it out. Once this commit
lands we should start seeing artifacts uploaded on each commit.

This commit is an attempt to debug #38620 since we're unable to reproduce it
locally. It follows the [advice] of those with AppVeyor to use the `handle.exe`
tool to try to debug what processes have a handle to the file open.
This won't be guaranteed to actually help us, but hopefully it'll diagnose
something at some point?

This commit relegates all pretty tests to not get run by default and rather get
run as part of an "aux" test suite. This "aux" suite is renamed from the old
"cargotest" suite to just collect tests that don't need to run everywhere but
should at least pass on Unix/Windows.
This commit adds support for sccache, a ccache-like compiler which works on MSVC
and stores results into an S3 bucket. This also switches over all Travis and
AppVeyor automation to using sccache to ensure a shared and unified cache over
time which can be shared across builders.
The support for sccache manifests as a new `--enable-sccache` option which
instructs us to configure LLVM differently to use a 'sccache' binary instead of
a 'ccache' binary. All docker images for Travis builds are updated to download
Mozilla's tooltool builds of sccache onto various containers and systems.
Additionally a new `rust-lang-ci-sccache` bucket is configured to hold all of
our ccache goodies.
This commit switches the default build system for Rust from the makefiles to
rustbuild. The rustbuild build system has been in development for almost a year
now and has become quite mature over time. This commit is an implementation of
the proposal on [internals] which slates deletion of the makefiles on
2016-01-02.
[internals]: https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/proposal-for-promoting-rustbuild-to-official-status/4368
This commit also updates various documentation in `README.md`,
`CONTRIBUTING.md`, `src/bootstrap/README.md`, and throughout the source code of
rustbuild itself.
Closes#37858
We hope to move to AppVeyor in the near future off of Buildbot + EC2. This adds
an `appveyor.yml` configuration file which is ready to run builds on the auto
branch. This is also accompanied with a few minor fixes to the build system and
such to accomodate AppVeyor.
The intention is that we're not switching over to AppVeyor entirely just yet,
but rather we'll watch the builds for a week or so. If everything checks out
then we'll start gating on AppVeyor instead of Buildbot!
