Full schedule for Linaro Connect 2025 is now available! Join my presentation on May 14th if you wish to learn about how to use #LLMs to find compiler regressions. I'll be using the #LLVM buildbots for #arm in this session. See you in Lisbon!

They're not testing it with all their apps. They're testing it with the base OS as an automated bug finding feature. They aren't using it in production or aren't even using it on the devices of Googlers testing internal releases yet. It's only special buildbots running tests.

Deserved for managing communities like a pajeet and glazing buildbots.

Yeah! My two @fosdem devroom talks have been accepted! 🎉 See you in #Brussels in February when I talk about (a) the programming models in #ROCm and (b) my journey and what we do with our buildbots for upstream testing. #LLVM #AMD #GPU

custom aosp roms are made by small group of buildbots kangers , who don't know how to implement stock oem feature provided by the company bcs its not possible also (cus of closed shource shit ) they can't kang those and put in the roms ...

Meanwhile in Buildbots HQ: #myart #doodles #toontown

i wanna see toontown sugar rush become a thing, i want the buildbots to be real and then we'll have a corporate-related yellow coded ladder!

buildbots after hearing this 🤑🤑🤑

A character that I wanted to introduce for so much time, there is Jade Jonquil! Patches Tailor and Buildbots secretary! “Pretty unusual and filled of curiosity, this secretary has a big interest in science and help her department to gain some recognition” #myart #toontown

Spam of the Buildbots!

Approaching to talk about Buildbots in general ;)

I have two but take the more of the CC one She’s a mute kiwi toon who lives in toontown central, she begins like a common toon who just defeat cogs and learning more stuff about them. Eventually met Buildbots and become to think probably they’re not different at all

Seeing so much furry ver of the managers and characters makes me do this to my Buildbots Security Connor: Beaver Hackerman: Gorilla Eraserhead: Dove Word Corrector: Squid Inkwell: Octopus Patches Tailor: Bunny #myart #doodles

Buildbots got something new in their bulletin board I wonder what they would do? 👀🤔

Lucy Bombus, the Beverly's baby girl I get late for the thing about cog bosses children but well: This little girl right now could be seen in Buildbots HQ and in Ottoman’s office when her mother is busy. You wouldn’t probably know who’s the father ;) #toontown #myart

Best GitHub PR of 2023, Python JIT. Merry JIT-mas indeed! 'Twas the night before Christmas, when all through the code Not a core dev was merging, not even Guido; The CI was spun on the PRs with care In hopes that green check-markings soon would be there; The buildbots were nestled all snug under desks, Even PPC64 AIX; Doc-writers, triage team, the Council of Steering, Had just stashed every change and stopped engineering, When in the "PRs" tab arose such a clatter, They opened GitHub to see what was the matter. Away to CPython they flew like a flash, Towards sounds of PROT_EXEC and __builtin___clear_cache. First LLVM was downloaded, unzipped Then the Actions were running a strange new build script, When something appeared, they were stopped in their tracks, jit_stencils.h, generated from hacks, With their spines all a-shiver, they muttered "Oh, shit...", They knew in a moment it must be a JIT. More rapid than interpretation it came And it copied-and-patched every stencil by name: "Now, _LOAD_FAST! Now, _STORE_FAST! _BINARY_OP_ADD_INT! On, _GUARD_DORV_VALUES_INST_ATTR_FROM_DICT! To the top of the loop! And down into the call! Now cache away! Cache away! Cache away all!" But why now? And how so? They needed a hint, Thankfully, Brandt gave a great talk at the sprint; So over to YouTube the reviewers flew, They read the white paper, and the blog post too. And then, after watching, they saw its appeal Not writing the code themselves seemed so unreal. And the platform support was almost too easy, ARM64 Macs to 32-bit PCs. There was some runtime C, not too much, just enough, Basically a loader, relocating stuff; It ran every test, one by one passed them all, With not one runtime dependency to install. Mostly build-time Python! With strict static typing! For maintenance ease, and also nerd-sniping! Though dispatch was faster, the JIT wasn't wise, And the traces it used still should be optimized; The code it was JIT'ing still needed some thinning, With code models small, and some register pinning; Or new calling conventions, shared stubs for paths slow, Since this JIT was brand new, there was fruit hanging low. It was awkwardly large, parsed straight out of the ELFs, And they laughed when they saw it, in spite of themselves; A configure flag, and no merging this year, Soon gave them to know they had nothing to fear; It wasn't much faster, at least it could work, They knew that'd come later; no one was a jerk, But they were still smart, and determined, and skilled, They opened a shell, and configured the build; --enable-experimental-jit, then made it, And away the JIT flew as their " 1"s okay'ed it. But they heard it exclaim, as it traced out of sight, "Happy JIT-mas to all, and to all a good night!"

Our main server, hosting WWW, Wiki, buildbots and Multiplayer had some major hardware failure. We will find out the details only in several hours. Looks like the box just got fried. We have the backups, but no idea about the hardware yet.

Again promoting sorry but: Starring characters that would been available in the Buildbots Ask Blog. The link is here for anyone: tumblr.com/buildbotsblog

Bonus: Buildbots practice
