Hi, I just noticed that travis again fails to build master, and did so for four days. The build logs only get sent to the committer, so if the first person breaking the build does not react, then all following commiters (who likely did obviously benign changes) will likely ignore any failures, (even if they break some of the test cases) and we have a broken-window effect. I wonder if we should configure travis to send build error messags to, for example, ghc-commits? Anyways, build time has increased and reached the (recently raised) time limit of 70 minutes. I fail to identify an obviously offending commit. Last working commit (which, by sheer luck, passed the time limit) was https://github.com/ghc/ghc/commit/fc6c222b90e68fed74a6bee6f087f47bf31f21c6 It looks that much of the time increase is due to enabling split sections by default: https://travis-ci.org/ghc/ghc/builds/198293519 I’ll see if that helps.

nope, even with echo 'SplitSections = NO' >> mk/validate.mk we run over the time limit. Not sure what best to do next.

Hi, ok, one of these patches brought the build time on Travis down to very nice 1h again: https://github.com/ghc/ghc/compare/749740f9c3cb...8ca4bb1ce9d9 The build would be marked as passing if it were not for integerConstantFolding which is marked as test('integerConstantFolding', [when(compiler_debugged(), expect_broken(11006))], run_command, ['$MAKE -s --no-print-directory integerConstantFolding']) but when Travis runs the build without -DDEBUG, then it still reports an unexepcted pass, so the compiler_debugged doesn’t quite work as expected: https://s3.amazonaws.com/archive.travis-ci.org/jobs/208399920/log.txt I am not sure why this does not work as expected on travis. If someone knowledgeable of the test suite driver would like to have a look, that’d be awesome.

fixed this issue. Travis should pass now again. Let’s keep it this way! Greetings, Joachim -- Joachim “nomeata” Breitner mail@joachim-breitner.de • https://www.joachim-breitner.de/ XMPP: nomeata@joachim-breitner.de • OpenPGP-Key: 0xF0FBF51F Debian Developer: nomeata@debian.org

FYI, liquidhaskell switched from travis to circleci.com because of timeout
problems.
It seems the time available is larger there.
And you get access to the build artifacts afterward, as per your
configuration.

IIRC CircleCI doesn't have an overall build timeout at all, just (configurable) per-command timeouts.
