436966 - should have an x86-64 linux tinderbox building mozilla-central

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Release Engineering :: General, defect, P2)

Description

We have an x86-64 tbox on the 1.9 branch, but we don't have one on mozilla-central.

Ostensibly this could block bug 433384, since it's a parity issue.

Comment 2

We should just take the one from 1.9 and move it to moz-central. I don't think we need the 1.9 one... dbaron do you agree?

I'm not sure where the 1.9 one is; it may prevent things going in without the appropriate config/system-headers changes, but that's only if people are looking at it.

Turns out I never had it reporting to the Firefox tinderbox. It was running for along while, but down at the moment due to a hardware problem.

It's far easier for me to just move it over to mozilla-central, but if we need it on 1.9 still I can make a new one.

I'm going to steal the 1.9 slave. Won't have time to get to this for at least a week.

I'm pulling the 1.9 slave for this.

Attachment: add a linux 64-bit builder for mozilla-central

Note that this will end up uploading snippets for Linux-64. I've looked at aus2-staging and the nightly cron job on prometheus-vm and I *think* this will work OK. In any case, the update platform is different, so it won't cause any problems. I don't think we need to be doing Linux 64-bit nightlies, but it's actually easier to leave them on than turn them off.

Same goes for buildsymbols && uploadsymbols -- though I'm not quite sure what will happen with two different linux builds uploading.

Yeah, I totally forgot, but Breakpad doesn't build on Linux x86-64. You'll have to turn off the buildsymbols/uploadsymbols steps. (crashreporter gets disabled in configure.in)

Builds are going fine, I'm spinning a couple nightlies now to see if updates are going to work.

Comment 16

[[e-mail] (:bhearsum)]

Had to change the update platform to "Linux_x86_64-gcc3" to get nightly updates to work.
