POUDRIERE(8) BSD System Manager's Manual POUDRIERE(8) NAME poudriere -- bulk package builder and port tester SYNOPSIS poudriere command subcommand [options] DESCRIPTION The poudriere tool is used to build packages from the ports tree. It can also be used to test a single port. GLOBAL OPTIONS poudriere accepts a global option: -e etcdir Path to the directory where poudriere will find its configu- ration data. See FILES and ENVIRONMENT for more informa- tion. -N Disable color support. COMMANDS The first argument to poudriere must be a command from the following list: bulk This command makes a ready-to-export package tree, and fills it with binary packages built from a given list of ports. During the build, hit ^T to send SIGINFO and get stats and progress back. jail This command allows you to manage the jails used by poudriere which are building environments differing by OS version and architecture. ports This command allows you to manage different portstrees which will be used by poudriere (create, update and delete port- strees). testport This command, mainly targeted at ports developers, launches a test on a given port (useful before submitting/committing a port). options This command allows to configure the options for a given port distclean This command will cleanup old distfiles pkgclean This command will cleanup old and unwanted packages queue This command allows a non-root user to queue poudriere com- mands. status This command shows status of current and previous builds version Show version of poudriere. SUBCOMMANDS Here are the list of subcommands and associated options supported by poudriere, sorted by command order. bulk These subcommands are mutually exclusive. -a Build all ports in the tree. -f file Absolute path to a file which contains the list of ports to build. Ports must be specified in the form category/port and shell-style comments are allowed. Multiple -f file ar- guments may be specified at once. cat/port cat/port2 ... A list of ports can be specified directly. See CUSTOMISATION to know how to build binary packages with options that differs from defaults. Here are the options associated with the bulk command. -B name Specify which buildname to use. By default YYYY-MM-DD_HH:MM:SS will be used. This can be used to re- sume a previous build and use the same log and URL paths. Resuming a build will not retry built/failed/skipped/ignored packages. -c Clean all previously built packages and logs. -C Clean only the packages specified on the command line or in in the file given in -f file -F Only fetch from original MASTER_SITES. Skip FreeBSD mir- rors. -j name Run the bulk build on the jail named name. -J number[:number] This argument specifies how many number jobs will run in parallel for a bulk build. The optional second number is the number of jobs used for the steps before the build, they are more IO bound than CPU bound, so you may want to use a different number. -i Interactive mode. Enter jail for interactive testing and automatically cleanup when done. A local pkg.conf(5) repos- itory configuration will be installed to LOCALBASE/etc/pkg/repos/local.conf so that pkg(8) can be used with any existing packages built for the jail. The FreeBSD repository will be disabled by default. -I Advanced Interactive mode. Leaves jail running with ports installed after test. When done with the jail you will need to manually shut it down: poudriere jail -k -j JAILNAME. As with -i this will install a pkg.conf(5) file for pkg(8) usage. -n Dry run. Show what woud be done, but do not actually build or delete any packages. -N Do not build package repository or INDEX when build is com- pleted. -p tree This flag specifies on which ports tree the bulk build will be done. -R Clean RESTRICTED packages after building. -s Skip incremental rebuild and sanity checks. Sanity tests are made to check if the ports exists, does not have an in- creased version number, packaged dependencies match, pkgname matches, if the compiled options match the current options from the make.conf files and /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options, and that its own depen- dencies did not require rebuild as well. -S Don't recrusively rebuild packages affected by other pack- ages requiring incremental rebuild. This is a subset of -s. This may result in broken packages if the ones they depend on are updated and are not ABI-compatible. -t Add some testing to the specified ports. Add -r to recur- sively test all port dependencies as well. Currently unin- stalls the port, and disable parallel jobs for make. When used with -a then -rk are implied. -r Recursively test all dependencies as well. This flag is au- tomatically set when using -at. -k When using -t do not consider failures as fatal. Do not skip dependent ports on findings. This flag is automati- cally set when using -at. -T Try building BROKEN ports by defining TRYBROKEN for the build. -w Save WRKDIR on build failure. The WRKDIR will be tarred up into ${POUDRIERE_DATA}/wrkdirs. -v This will show more information during the build. Specify twice to enable debug output. -z set This specifies which SET to use for the build. See CUSTOMISATION for examples of how this is used. jail These subcommands are mutually exclusive. -c Creates a jail. -d Deletes a jail. -i Show information about a jail. See also status. -l List all available jails. -n When combined with -l, only display jail name. -s Starts a jail. -k Kills a jail (stops it). -r name Rename a jail to name. -u Update a jail. Except for -l, all of the subcommands require the -j option (see below). Here are the options associated with the jail command. -J number This argument specifies how many number jobs will run in parallel for buildworld. -q Remove the header when -l is the specified mandatory option. Otherwise, it has no effect. -j name Specifies the name of the jail. -v version Specifies which version of FreeBSD to use in the jail. If you are using method ftp then the version should in the form of: 9.0-RELEASE. If you are using method csup then the version should be in the form of cvs branches: RELENG_9 or . for current. If you are using method svn then the version should be in the form of svn branches: stable/9 or head for current. -a architecture Specifies which architecture of FreeBSD to use in the jail. (Default: same as host) -m method Specifies which method to use to create the jail. (default: ftp) Pre-built distribution options: allbsd Use www.allbsd.org. ftp http Fetch from configured FREEBSD_HOST vari- able from poudriere.conf. freebsd-archive Fetch from ftp-archive.freebsd.org. null This option can be used to import an ex- isting directory that already contains an installed system. The path must be spec- ified with -M path. It is expected that this directory be installed to with the following: /usr/src# make installworld DESTDIR=PATH DB_FROM_SRC=1 /usr/src# make distrib-dirs DESTDIR=PATH DB_FROM_SRC=1 /usr/src# make distribution DESTDIR=PATH DB_FROM_SRC=1 The path will be null-mounted during builds. It will not be copied at the time of running jail. Deleting the jail will attempt to revert any files changed by poudriere. src=PATH Install from the given src directory at PATH. This directory will not be built from. It is expected that it is already built and maps to a corresponding /usr/obj directory. tar=PATH Install from the tarball at the given PATH. Note that this method requires the tarball contains the /usr/src files as well if you plan to build any port con- taining modules. url=PATH Fetch from given PATH. Any URL supported by fetch(1) can be used. For example: url=file:///mirror/10.0 Build from source options: csup Use legacy CVS repository. svn svn+file svn+http svn+https Use SVN. This will use the SVN_HOST variable in poudriere.conf. -f filesystem Specifies the filesystem name (${ZPOOL}/jails/filesystem). -M mountpoint Gives an alternative mountpoint when creating jail. -p name This specifies which port tree to start/stop the jail with. -P patch Apply the specified patch to the source tree before building the jail. -t version instead of upgrading to the latest security fix of the jail version, you can jump to the new specified version. -z set This specifies which SET to start/stop the jail with. -x Build the native-xbuild target and copy this into the jail. Used exclusively for cross building a ports set, typically via qemu-user tools. ports These subcommands are mutually exclusive. -c Creates a ports tree. -d Deletes a ports tree. -u Updates a ports tree. -l List all available ports trees. Except for -l, all of the subcommands require the -p switch (see below). Here are the options associated with the ports command. -q Remove the header when -l is the specified subcommand. Oth- erwise, it has no effect. -p name Specifies the name of the ports tree to use. -F When used with -c, only create the needed ZFS file systems and directories, but do not populate them. -f filesystem Specifies the filesystem name (${ZPOOL}/jails/filesystem). -M mountpoint Gives an alternative mountpoint when creating ports tree. -m method Specifies which method to use to create the ports tree. Could be portsnap, git, svn{,+http,+https,+file,+ssh} (De- fault: portsnap). -v Show more verbose output. -B branch Specifies which branch to checkout when using the svn or git methods. (Default: head/master) -k When used with -d, only unregister the ports tree with out removing the files. testport The specified port will be tested for build and packaging problems. All missing dependencies will first be built in parallel. TRYBROKEN=yes is automatically defined in the environment to test ports marked as BROKEN. There is only 1 subcommand for the testport command. -o origin Specifies an origin in the ports tree Here are the options associated with the testport command. -c Run make config for the given port. -i Interactive mode. Enter jail for interactive testing and automatically cleanup when done. A local pkg.conf(5) repos- itory configuration will be installed to LOCALBASE/etc/pkg/repos/local.conf so that pkg(8) can be used with any existing packages built for the jail. The FreeBSD repository will be disabled by default. -I Advanced Interactive mode. Leaves jail running with port installed after test. When done with the jail you will need to manually shut it down: poudriere jail -k -j JAILNAME. As with -i this will install a pkg.conf(5) file for pkg(8) usage. -j name Runs only inside the jail named name. -J number This argument specifies how many number jobs will run in parallel for building the dependencies. -k Do not consider failures as fatal. Find all failures. -P Use custom prefix. -N Do not build package repository or INDEX when build of de- pendencies is completed. -p tree Specifies which ports tree to use. -s Skip incremental rebuild and sanity checks. Sanity tests are made to check if the ports exists, does not have an in- creased version number, packaged dependencies match, pkgname matches, if the compiled options match the current options from the make.conf files and /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options, and that its own depen- dencies did not require rebuild as well. -S Don't recrusively rebuild packages affected by other pack- ages requiring incremental rebuild. This is a subset of -s. This may result in broken packages if the ones they depend on are updated and are not ABI-compatible. -v This will show more information during the build. Specify twice to enable debug output. -w Save WRKDIR on build failure. The WRKDIR will be tarred up into ${POUDRIERE_DATA}/wrkdirs. -z set This specifies which SET to use for the build. See CUSTOMISATION for examples of how this is used. distclean This command accepts the following options: -J number This argument specifies how many number jobs will run in parallel for gathering distfile information. -n Dry run, do not actually delete anything. -p tree Specifies which ports tree to use. This can be specified multiple times to consider multiple tress. -y Assume yes, do not confirm and just delete the files. -v This will show more information during the build. Specify twice to enable debug output. pkgclean This command is used to delete all packages not specified to build. These subcommands are mutually exclusive. -a Keep all ports in the tree. -f file Absolute path to a file which contains the list of ports to keep. Ports must be specified in the form category/port and shell-style comments are allowed. Multiple -f file argu- ments may be specified at once. cat/port cat/port2 ... A list of ports can be specified directly. Here are the options associated with the pkgclean command. This command accepts the following options: -j name Jail to use for the packages to inspect. -J number This argument specifies how many number jobs will run in parallel for gathering package information. -n Dry run, do not actually delete anything. -N Do not build package repository or INDEX when done cleaning. -p tree Specifies which ports tree to use. -R Also clean restricted packages. -y Assume yes, do not confirm and just delete the files. -v This will show more information during the build. Specify twice to enable debug output. -z set SET to use for the packages to inspect. options This command accepts the following parameters: -f file Absolute path to a file which contains the list of ports to configure. Ports must be specified in the form category/port and shell-style comments are allowed. cat/port cat/port2 ... A list of ports can be specified directly. This command accepts the following options: -c Use 'config' target, which will always show the dialog for the given ports. -C Use 'config-conditional' target, which will only bring up the dialog on new options for the given ports. (This is the default) -j jailname If given, configure the options only for the given jail. -p portstree Run the configuration inside the given ports tree (by de- fault uses default) -n Do not be recursive -r Remove port options instead of configuring them -s Show port options instead of configuring them -z set This specifies which SET to use for the build. See CUSTOMISATION for examples of how this is used. The options subcommand can also take the list of ports to configure through command line arguments instead of the using a file list. queue This command takes a poudriere command in argument. There are no options associated with the queue command. status status sorts by SETNAME, PORTSTREE, JAILNAME and then BUILDNAME. This command accepts the following options: -a Show all builds, not just latest. This implies -f. -b Show details about what each builder for the matched builds are doing. -B name Specifies which buildname to match on. This supports shell globbing. Defaults to "latest". Specifying this implies the -f flag. -c Show a more compact output and do not include some columns. -f Show finished builds, not just currently running. This is implied by the -a, -B and -r flags. -H Do not print headers and separate fields by a single tab in- stead of arbitrary white space. -j name Specifies the name of the jail to filter by. -l Show logs instead of URL. -p tree This flag specifies which ports tree to filter builds by. -r Show build results. This implies the -f flag. -z set This specifies which SET to filter builds by. Use 0 to match on empty SET. ENVIRONMENT The poudriere command may use the following environment variable: POUDRIERE_ETC If specified, the path to poudriere's config directory. Defaults to /usr/local/etc. FILES POUDRIERE_ETC/poudriere.conf See self-documented /usr/local/etc/poudriere.conf.sample for example. POUDRIERE_ETC/poudriere.d/poudriere.conf The configuration can be stored in the poudriere.d directory as well. POUDRIERE_ETC/poudriere.d This directory contains various configuration files for the different jails. EXIT STATUS The poudriere utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs. EXAMPLES bulk build of binary packages This first example provides a guide on how to use poudriere for bulk build packages. [Prepare infrastructure] First you have to create a jail, which will hold all the building infra- structure needs. poudriere jail -c -v 8.2-RELEASE -a amd64 -j 82amd64 A jail will take approximately 3GB of space. Of course you can use another version of FreeBSD, regarless on what ver- sion you are running. amd64 users can choose i386 arch like in this ex- ample: poudriere jail -c -v 8.1-RELEASE -a i386 -j 81i386 This command will fetch and install a minimal jail, small (~400MB) so you can create a lot of them. It will install the jail under the pool you have chosen, at poudriere/jailname. You also need to have at least one ports tree to build packages from it, so let us take the default configuration by creating a ports tree. poudriere ports -c A ports tree will take approximately 4GB of space. [Specify a list of ports you want to build] Create a flat text file in which you put the ports you want to see built by poudriere. echo 'sysutils/screen' > ~/pkglist echo 'editors/vim' >> ~/pkglist Any line starting with the hash sign will be treated as a comment. [Launch the bulk build] Now you can launch the bulk build. You can specify to build for only one arch/version ; by default it will make the bulk build on all the jails created by poudriere. poudriere bulk -f ~/pkglist -j 81i386 [Find your packages] Once the bulk build is over, you can meet your shiny new packages here: /usr/local/poudriere_data/packages/81i386 with 81i386 as the name of the jail. test a single port This second example show how to use poudriere for a single port. Let's take the example of building a single port; poudriere testport -o category/port -j myjail all the tests will be done in myjail. It starts the jail, then mount the ports tree (nullfs), then mounts the package dir (pourdriere_data/packages/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>), then it mounts the ~/ports-cvs/mybeautifulporttotest (nullfs) it builds all the dependencies (except runtime ones) and log it to poudriere_data/logs/testport/jailname/default/mybeautifulporttotest.log). If packages for the dependencies already exists it will use them When all the dependencies are built, packages for them are created so that next time it will be faster. All the dependency phase is done with PREFIX == LOCALBASE. After that it will build the port itself with LOCALBASE != PREFIX and log the build to poudriere_data/logs/testport/jailname/default/mybeautiful- porttotest.log It will try to: install it, create a package from it, deinstall it, check for cruft left behind and propose the line to add to pkg-plist if needed. It is very easy to extend it so that we can easily add other tests if wanted. CUSTOMISATION For bulk building, you can customize binary packages produced by poudriere by changing build options port by port, and you can also spec- ify building directives in a make.conf file. Custom build options Before building a package, poudriere can mount a directory containing op- tion files if available. poudriere will check for any of these directo- ries in this order: /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<setname>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<setname>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<tree>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-options /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/options If a directory with this name exists, it is null-mounted into the /var/db/ports/ directory of the jail, thus allowing to build package with custom OPTIONS. The options subcommand can be used to easily configure options in the correct directory. This directory has the usual layout for options: it contains one direc- tory per port (the name of the port) containing an 'options' file with lines similar to: WITH_FOO=true WITHOUT_BAR=true As a starter, you may want to copy an existing /var/db/ports/ to /usr/lo- cal/etc/poudriere.d/options. Blacklist ports You can also specify a blacklist which will disallow the lists port ori- gins from building on the matched jail. Any of the following are allowed and will all be used in the order shown: /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<setname>-blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<tree>-blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<setname>-blacklist /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>-blacklist Create optional poudriere.conf You can also specify an optional poudriere.conf that is pulled in depend- ing on the build. Any of the following are allowed and will all be used in the order shown: /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<setname>-poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<tree>-poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<setname>-poudriere.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>-poudriere.conf Create optional make.conf You can also specify a global make.conf which will be used for all the jails. Any of the following are allowed and will all be used in the or- der shown: /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<setname>-make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<tree>-make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<setname>-make.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-<tree>-<setname>-make.conf Create optional src.conf You can also specify a global src.conf which will be used for building jails with the jail -c subcommand. Any of the following are allowed and will all be used in the order shown: /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/src.conf /usr/local/etc/poudriere.d/<jailname>-src.conf COMPATIBILITY The poudriere command must be used on a recent version of FreeBSD, i.e. a version which has ZFS >= v15, and a zpool. CAVEATS Jailname -j is the name of the jail which will also be the name of the zfs filesystem. Be careful to respects the names supported by jail(8): "This is an arbitrary string that identifies a jail (except it may not contain a '.')" Be also careful to not begin the name of the jail by a number if you are not in -stable or current: http://svn.freebsd.org/viewvc/base?view=revision&revision=209820 BUGS In case of bugs, feel free to fill http://fossil.etoilebsd.net/poudriere/reportlist AUTHORS Baptiste Daroussin <bapt@FreeBSD.org> Bryan Drewery <bdrewery@FreeBSD.org> BSD September 15, 2014 BSD
