About

This project is home for the generation of daily

• LLVM source snapshots
  • See generate-snapshot-tarballs workflow
• Fedora LLVM snapshot RPMs
  • See fedora-copr-build workflow

Troubleshooting

We also have a Makefile in case we encounter an error with the snapshots and want to rebuild locally to fix errors. These are the make targets to choose from:

clone-%

Clones the upstream-snapshot branch of the given package package (%) into the
buildroot.

build-%

Clones and builds the package (%) and then installs it in the chroot.

init-mock

Initializes the mock chroot.

build-and-install-%

For the package (%) an SRPM and an RPM is built and then it is installed in
the chroot.

shell

Opens up a shell to inspect the mock chroot.

install-vim

Allows you to use vim inside of mock.

clean-mock

Cleans the mock chroot

clean-buildroot

Removes the buildroot directory

clean

Cleans the mock chroot and removes the buildroot.

clean-%

Removes the buildroot dir for the given package (%).

copr-build-%

Builds the package (%) in copr by using the tooling used for the automated
snapshot generation.

Usage

The LLVM snapshot packages depend on one another. The fastest and independent package to build is python-lit. To try out how to build it, you can do:

make init-mock
make build-python-lit

This will initialize the mock environment. Note, that you only have to run this once and not for every package. The second line clones the upstream-snapshot branch of the python-lit package repository into ./buildroot/<yyyymmdd>/python-lit and starts a build of the package. We build an SRPM, an RPM and then we install it. This makes the package available to the next package to be built, e.g. llvm.

In case you encounter an error when build clang in the official snapshots, you need llvm as a build dependency available in the mock environment. You're options are to run make build-llvm && make build-clang or you could just run make build-clang. Then the llvm version that is needed will be downloaded from the official Fedora snapshot YUM repository (if it is available there).
