This adds support for running 4 jobs via Cirrus CI runners: * FreeBSD 12 * FreeBSD 13 * macOS 11 with default XCode * macOS 11 with latest XCode The gitlab job uses a container published by the libvirt-ci project (https://gitlab.com/libvirt/libvirt-ci) that contains the 'cirrus-run' command. This accepts a short yaml file that describes a single Cirrus CI job, runs it using the Cirrus CI REST API, and reports any output to the console. In this way Cirrus CI is effectively working as an indirect custom runner for GitLab CI pipelines. The key benefit is that Cirrus CI job results affect the GitLab CI pipeline result and so the user only has look at one CI dashboard.

Cirrus CI integration
|
|
=====================
|
|
|
|
GitLab CI shared runners only provide a docker environment running on Linux.
|
|
While it is possible to provide private runners for non-Linux platforms this
|
|
is not something most contributors/maintainers will wish to do.
|
|
|
|
To work around this limitation, we take advantage of `Cirrus CI`_'s free
|
|
offering: more specifically, we use the `cirrus-run`_ script to trigger Cirrus
|
|
CI jobs from GitLab CI jobs so that Cirrus CI job output is integrated into
|
|
the main GitLab CI pipeline dashboard.
|
|
|
|
There is, however, some one-time setup required. If you want FreeBSD and macOS
|
|
builds to happen when you push to your GitLab repository, you need to
|
|
|
|
* set up a GitHub repository for the project, eg. ``yourusername/qemu``.
|
|
This repository needs to exist for cirrus-run to work, but it doesn't need to
|
|
be kept up to date, so you can create it and then forget about it;
|
|
|
|
* enable the `Cirrus CI GitHub app`_ for your GitHub account;
|
|
|
|
* sign up for Cirrus CI. It's enough to log into the website using your GitHub
|
|
account;
|
|
|
|
* grab an API token from the `Cirrus CI settings`_ page;
|
|
|
|
* it may be necessary to push an empty ``.cirrus.yml`` file to your github fork
|
|
for Cirrus CI to properly recognize the project. You can check whether
|
|
Cirrus CI knows about your project by navigating to:
|
|
|
|
``https://cirrus-ci.com/yourusername/qemu``
|
|
|
|
* in the *CI/CD / Variables* section of the settings page for your GitLab
|
|
repository, create two new variables:
|
|
|
|
* ``CIRRUS_GITHUB_REPO``, containing the name of the GitHub repository
|
|
created earlier, eg. ``yourusername/qemu``;
|
|
|
|
* ``CIRRUS_API_TOKEN``, containing the Cirrus CI API token generated earlier.
|
|
This variable **must** be marked as *Masked*, because anyone with knowledge
|
|
of it can impersonate you as far as Cirrus CI is concerned.
|
|
|
|
Neither of these variables should be marked as *Protected*, because in
|
|
general you'll want to be able to trigger Cirrus CI builds from non-protected
|
|
branches.
|
|
|
|
Once this one-time setup is complete, you can just keep pushing to your GitLab
|
|
repository as usual and you'll automatically get the additional CI coverage.
