Re: [Swift CI] Build Still Failing: 0. OSS - Swift Incremental RA - Ubuntu 16.04 (master) #5937

This failure might be related to https://github.com/apple/swift-compiler-rt/commit/6f8a608c6b2467140785338c5b7b7bb3b5bd95bf

Thanks,

I think Kuba is fixing it here:

https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/20037

-Andy

Yup.

It is normal that I do "@swift-ci please test and merge" and nothing happens?

Kuba

Yup.

It is normal that I do "@swift-ci please test and merge" and nothing happens?

Kuba

Unfortunately, yes. I usually try several times. Do you want me to force merge?

-Andy

Yup.

Sigh. Mishal, anything that can be done about that?

I triggered the testing again, this time it actually started. If you feel this needs to be resolved sooner than the testing is done, please force-merge (both on 5.0 and master).

Thanks and sorry for the breakage!

Kuba

If you force push to PR branch, it takes time for GitHub servers to pickup the new sha.

Thanks,

Mishal Shah

I did see the new sha on the Github web page. Then I did "@swift-ci please ...". And then an hour later, I see that testing didn't start :/

But there’s neither any feedback nor automatic retry. So every attempt to issue a swift-ci command involves staring at the browser, hitting refresh for a few minutes. This is not conducive to our mental health.

-Andy

Kuba, just trying to understand why we did not see this failure before pushing the original change (https://github.com/apple/swift-compiler-rt/commit/6f8a608c6b2467140785338c5b7b7bb3b5bd95bf), did you run PR testing on swift-compiler-rt?

Thanks,

Mishal Shah

Andy, we do auto retry for all other PR testing except for test and merge.

Thanks,

Mishal Shah

So, I really don’t need to issue 3-4 “@swift-ci test” commands after I push? What’s the interval between retrying?
-Andy

It takes about 2-4mins, because it has to checkout the swift repertory and check the sha before it can re-trigger new build.

Thanks,

Mishal Shah

That's not my observation. See what happened on my PR. It didn't start even after 1 hour.

Kuba

Andy, we do auto retry for all other PR testing except for test and merge.

It does not currently support re-try on test and merge, I said earlier.

Ah, sorry, I missed that, thanks! Plans to fix that?

Kuba

No worries, hopefully soon.

I did not. Does PR testing actually work on swift-compiler-rt?
