Package failures non-deterministic #16

Open Ham22 opened 7 years ago

Ham22 commented 7 years ago

Currently we run a full package build with something like this because multi-threaded builds some times fail so we give it another chance single threaded: make -j8 IGNORE_ERRORS=m || make -j1 IGNORE_ERRORS=m V=s

The problem is that depending on when the multithread build fails we have seen that different numbers of packages are being built successfully even on the same code base.

Perhaps a solution is to run this sequence of events for a build:

  1. make -j8 IGNORE_ERRORS=m
  2. grep log for failed packages
  3. for each failed package make -j1 package/<package>/{compile,install} (even if one fails)
  4. make package/index
