+ <body>
+ <p>The Jenkins Continuous Integration and Testing project
+ has been helping to improve the quality of &os;. Since the last
+ status report, we have quickly found commits that caused build
+ breakage or test failures. &os; developers saw these problems and
+ quickly fixed them. Some of the highlights include:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>Ricky Gallagher wrote a script named
+ <tt>portest</tt>, which can take a patch to the &os; ports
+ tree as input, and can generate a sequence of commands to
+ check out the ports tree from Subversion, apply the patch, and
+ then invoke <tt>poudriere</tt> to build the affected part of
+ the ports tree. Ricky consulted with Torsten Zühlsdorff
+ on this. This script will be used later to test changes to
+ the ports tree.</li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>&a.rodrigc; converted some Jenkins builds to use
+ the Workflow plugin. Workflow is a plugin written by Jesse
+ Glick and other developers at Cloudbees, the main company
+ providing commercial support for Jenkins. With this plugin, a
+ Jenkins job can be written in a Domain Specific Language (DSL)
+ which is written in the Groovy scripting language. Workflow
+ scripts are meant to provide sophisticated access to Jenkins
+ functionality, in a simple scripting language. As Jenkins
+ jobs get more complicated and have more interdependencies,
+ using a DSL is easier for maintainability instead of creating
+ Jenkins jobs via menus.</p>
+
+ <p>&a.rodrigc; worked with Jesse Glick to identify
+ and fix a problem with the Durable Task plugin used by the
+ workflow plugin. This problem seemed to show up mostly on
+ non-Linux platforms such as OS X and &os;.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>&a.eadler; worked with &a.rodrigc; to test a
+ Jenkins plugin written by Aiden Scandella at Uber which
+ integrates Phabricator and Jenkins. With this plugin, if
+ someone submits a code review with Phabricator's Differential
+ tool, a Jenkins build with this code change will be triggered.
+ The Phabricator code review would then be updated with the
+ result of the build.</p>
+
+ <p>&a.eadler; and &a.rodrigc; had some initial
+ success testing this plugin using the &os; docs
+ repository, but this plugin still has a lot of hardcoded
+ dependencies specific to Uber's environment which make it
+ difficult to use out-of-the-box for &os;. Alexander Yerenkow
+ submitted some patches upstream to fix some of these problems,
+ but this plugin still needs more work. &a.rodrigc; thinks
+ that it might be better to write a workflow script to call
+ Phabricator commands directly.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>
+ <p>&a.rodrigc; pushed fixes upstream to several
+ plugins including:</p>
+
+ <ul>
+ <li>SCM Sync configuration plugin</li>
+
+ <li>NodeLabel parameter plugin</li>
+
+ <li>Subversion plugin</li>
+
+ <li>Multiple SCMs plugin</li>
+
+ <li>Clang Scanbuild plugin</li>
+ </ul>
+
+ <p>&a.rodrigc; was granted commit access to the SCM
+ Sync configuration plugin, Multiple SCMs plugin, and Clang
+ Scanbuild plugin.</p>
+ </li>
+
+ <li>&a.lwhsu; set up multiple builds using jails on
+ machines located at NYI and administered by the &os; Cluster
+ Administrators. One of these builds targets 64-bit ARM.</li>
+
+ <li>Michael Zhilin fixed the Akuma library for &os;.
+ The Akuma library is used by Jenkins to determine what
+ command-line arguments were passed to a running process. To
+ fix this, Michael invoked an &os;-specific sysctl() with
+ KERN_PROC_ARGS to determine the arguments for a running pid.
+ This fix allows a running Jenkins instance to restart itself
+ after new plugins are installed.</li>
+
+ <li>&a.jmmv; accepted a fix for Kyua from &a.rodrigc;
+ to fix writing out XML characters to test report files.</li>
+ </ul>
