1268979 - Would like linux64 instead of b2gtest to display in Treeherder report for test runs

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Taskcluster :: General, defect)

Description

[David Lawrence [:dkl]]

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=bmo-development

Currently all test runs triggered by our github commits show up as 'b2gtest' as the platform in the Treeherder results. I was told that if I added a machine.platform value to our taskgraph.json file it should show up as the platform instead yet I still see b2gtest.

taskgraph.json:
https://github.com/mozilla/webtools-bmo-bugzilla/blob/development/taskgraph.json

list of platforms supported by Treeherder:
https://github.com/mozilla/treeherder/blob/master/ui/js/values.js#L3-L66

Do I need to format the treeherder section differenty?

Thanks

I think you might need to specify treeherder.build.platform as well as treeherder.machine.platform.  

Based on this task graph: https://queue.taskcluster.net/v1/task/BtpKHNDWQIq5v5q_JUy5Tw

It LOOKS like task cluster is falling back to the "workerType" as the build.platform upon submission.  So I think if you supply both in the extra.treeherder section, that should do it.

yeah, confirmed in our DB and with garndt you need to specify both.
Actually, you REALLY only need to specify the build.platform, because that's what we use in the UI.  But setting both is better for correctness in our DB as well.

Works. Thanks!
