fa21f83d2983d97006ec1e3c47634dc0fe0349dc ci: Use G++ in valgrind tasks (MarcoFalke) fabd05bf651138679f76728f974f141ac8ce99a9 refactor: Fix net_processing iwyu includes (MarcoFalke) fa1622db208025e1744e78c4f5b135db11b293d4 refactor: Make node_id a const& in RemoveBlockRequest (MarcoFalke) Pull request description: Currently, `valgrind` is not usable on a default build with GCC. Specifically, `p2p_compactblocks.py --valgrind` gives a false-positive in `RemoveBlockRequest` when comparing `node_id` with `from_peer`. According to the upstream bug report, this happens because both symbols are on the stack and the compiler can more aggressively optimize the compare (order). See https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=472329#c7 It is possible to work around this bug by pulling at least one value from the stack. For example, by making `from_peer` a `const` reference. Alternatively, by replacing `auto [node_id, list_it]` with `const auto& [node_id, list_it]`, which is done here. I think this workaround is acceptable, because it does not look like valgrind can trivially fix this. The alternative would be to add a (temporary?) suppression. Fixes https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues/27741 Also, fix iwyu includes, while touching this module. Also, switch the CI valgrind scripts to use G++.

CI Scripts
This directory contains scripts for each build step in each build stage.
Running a Stage Locally
Be aware that the tests will be built and run in-place, so please run at your own risk. If the repository is not a fresh git clone, you might have to clean files from previous builds or test runs first.
The ci needs to perform various sysadmin tasks such as installing packages or writing to the user's home directory. While it should be fine to run the ci system locally on your development box, the ci scripts can generally be assumed to have received less review and testing compared to other parts of the codebase. If you want to keep the work tree clean, you might want to run the ci system in a virtual machine with a Linux operating system of your choice.
To allow for a wide range of tested environments, but also ensure reproducibility to some extent, the test stage
requires bash
, docker
, and python3
to be installed. To run on different architectures than the host qemu
is also required. To install all requirements on Ubuntu, run
sudo apt install bash docker.io python3 qemu-user-static
It is recommended to run the ci system in a clean env. To run the test stage with a specific configuration,
env -i HOME="$HOME" PATH="$PATH" USER="$USER" bash -c 'FILE_ENV="./ci/test/00_setup_env_arm.sh" ./ci/test_run_all.sh'
Configurations
The test files (FILE_ENV
) are constructed to test a wide range of
configurations, rather than a single pass/fail. This helps to catch build
failures and logic errors that present on platforms other than the ones the
author has tested.
Some builders use the dependency-generator in ./depends
, rather than using
the system package manager to install build dependencies. This guarantees that
the tester is using the same versions as the release builds, which also use
./depends
.
It is also possible to force a specific configuration without modifying the file. For example,
env -i HOME="$HOME" PATH="$PATH" USER="$USER" bash -c 'MAKEJOBS="-j1" FILE_ENV="./ci/test/00_setup_env_arm.sh" ./ci/test_run_all.sh'
The files starting with 0n
(n
greater than 0) are the scripts that are run
in order.
Cache
In order to avoid rebuilding all dependencies for each build, the binaries are cached and reused when possible. Changes in the dependency-generator will trigger cache-invalidation and rebuilds as necessary.
