Information about M68k Autobuilder

Autobuilder (aka Buildds) are machines that automatically build packages from source packages. The M68k port is using several autobuilders for that purpose.

HowTo Setup/Upgrade A Buildd from Etch-m68k to Unstable

There are these possible ways:

HowTo Setup buildd chroot

On kullervo the system has been set up in partition /dev/sda5. Partition /dev/sda7 is a big empty partition, that we want to use with LVM for the buildd.

apt-get install lvm2

# create physical volume pvcreate /dev/sda7 pvscan pvdisplay

# create volume group vgcreate kullervo /dev/sda7 vgdisplay

# create logical volume lvcreate -L 4G -n buildd kullervo lvscan lvdisplay

Now we can use /dev/kullervo/buildd as device in the chroot config below. Note that I chose the ?VolumeGroup to be called "kullervo" and not "vg" so that I do not run into problems when I swap harddisks and suddenly have two different volumegroups with the same name on the system.

HowTo configure dupload

The upload queue "dports" is not predefied in /etc/dupload.conf (at least in dupload 2.7.0)

$cfg{'dports'} = {

};

HowTo configure buildd

Wouter wrote in a mail to debian-68k list this:

Now, while it's still fresh in my memory, for those of you who want to
set things up, here's a (not so) short HOWTO:

- First, set up sbuild so it can build packages. This has changed fairly
 significantly since the old days, so you'll have to learn all over
 again. Since Ingo set that up on arrakis, I'm afraid I can't help
 here, but he said he'd mail his explanation some time soon.

 Important: make sure the 'schroot' chroot name follows the following
 pattern:

 <dist>-<arch>-sbuild

 e.g.,

 sid-m68k-sbuild

 otherwise buildd won't find the chroot and can't build.
- Install buildd. Note that 'buildd.conf' has been renamed, you should
 now use ~buildd/.builddrc instead. A template configuration file looks
 like this:

--->8--->8---
@distributions = (
       {
               dist_name => [ "sid" ],
               built_architecture => 'm68k',
               wanna_build_ssh_host => "buildd.debian.org",
               wanna_build_ssh_user => "buildd_m68k",
               wanna_build_ssh_socket => "buildd.debian.org.ssh",
               wanna_build_ssh_options => [],
               wanna_build_db_user => "buildd_m68k-arrakis",
               dupload_local_queue_dir => "upload",
               no_auto_build => [],
               weak_no_auto_build => [],
               logs_mailed_to => 'wouter@debian.org,logs@buildd.debian.org',
               sign_with => "96DC703F",
       },
);

@upload_queues = (
       {
               dupload_local_queue_dir => "upload",
               dupload_archive_name => "dports",
       },
);

my $autoclean_interval = 86400;
my $secondary_daemon_threshold = undef;
$admin_mail = "wouter\@debian.org";
$statistics_mail = $admin_mail;

# How many days until archiving build logs
my $buildd_log_keep = 7;

# Log successful messages from upload queue daemon?
my $log_queued_messages = 1;

# Send rotated daemon.log files?
$daemon_log_send = 1;

# Arrakis is a dedicated daemon, it shouldn't need nice
$nice_level = 0;

my $max_build = 1;

# Ask whether packages should be built if they failed earlier?
$should_build_msgs = 0;

# Don't remove this, Perl needs it

 Yes, that means we can specify more than one distributions with more
 than one target upload queue. On debian.org machines, this is used to
 build for unstable, experimental, backports, and security, all from
 the same host.

 Obviously you'll want to change the values of logs_mailed_to,
 wanna_build_db_user, and $admin_mail :-)
- Add a cronjob for 

 schroot -c source:sid-m68k-sbuild -- apt-get update

 and have it run every six hours, but *not* at 6-12-18-24, because
 that's just *before* the archive run. This is because 'apt-get update'
 takes about 25 minutes these days, and otherwise it'll try to do that
 for *every* build, which isn't always necessary. With this, it'll do
 it as often as debian-ports gets updated; much more useful.  Note the
 source: bit in the schroot command line, it means you don't want
 schroot to create a snapshot that it'll throw away after you log out
 (fairly crucial for what we want to do here)
- Patch /usr/share/perl5/Buildd/Daemon.pm, find the line that says
 '--apt-update' and change it into '--no-apt-update'. I'll file a
 bugreport in a minute so that isn't hardcoded anymore, but for now
 you'll have to do that.
- Generate an OpenPGP key with:
 - 4096 bits RSA
 - expiry set to 1 year
 - no password
 You do *not* want to do this on the m68k; generate it on a faster
 machine, and use 'gpg --export-secret-key' to copy it over to the
 m68k. Otherwise you'll be at it for hours. Note that
 --export-secret-key doesn't export the public key, you have to use
 --export-key for that. Use --import on the m68k machine to import both
 files there. Don't forget to gpg --delete-secret-key it from your
 other machine (don't want to needlessly increase the attack surface)
- Sign the OpenPGP key with your own OpenPGP key (the one that you can use to do
 debian.org uploads with)
- Change the value of 'sign_with' in .builddrc to the key ID of the OpenPGP
 key that you just generated.
- Upload the OpenPGP key to some keyserver somewhere.
- Generate an SSH key (if that has not already been done)
- Send a mail to aurelien with OpenPGP fingerprint, SSH public, and mail
 forward address
- Install buildd-watcher and buildd-uploader in cron, as before.
- Profit!
