h2. Continuous Integration with Jenkins

h3. What

The software stack has grown to a size where it make sense to somehow track the state after

each commit. The Jenkins Software allows us to do this. The installation can be found at

"here":http://jenkins.osmocom.org/jenkins and all of Osmocom is tracked there. The goal is to

have all projects/repositories of the osmocom umbrella tracked there. We are happy if people

donate CPU time to be used as additional nodes to execute the compile jobs.

h2. How

We are using Jenkins as it comes from the [[FreeBSD]] port system. It runs using the standalone

servlet container (Winstone Servlet Engine) and is behind one (IPv6) or two (IPv4) cherokee

reverse proxies. Currently there are two nodes [[FreeBSD]]8.2/AMD64 and Debian Squeeze/i386 (

running on the [[FreeBSD]] kernel, any weirdness might be a broken syscall implementation).

h3. Custom Script

The osmo-deps.sh script was created to clone/update a dependency in the workspace of a build

node. The script will try to git-clone, git-fetch, git-reset --hard the dependency.

<pre>

<code class="sh">

if ! test -d $1;

then

  git clone git://git.osmocom.org/$1 $1

fi

cd $1

git fetch origin

git reset --hard origin/master

</code></pre>

h3. [[FreeBSD]] 8.2 and Osmocom

Not everything is required to build on GNU/Linux systems, for SIMtrace a fake libusb-1.0.pc

was created to point to the /usr/include,/usr/lib for libusb, all dependencies (fftw, erlang,

autotools...) were installed through the port system

h3. Debian/Squeeze

Normal Debian/Squeeze installation, all dependencies installed via the apt/dpkg package

system. The arm-elf-gcc toolchain is installed using the toolchain script of the bb.osmocom.org

wiki.
