Summary:
- Step 1: Testing Kokkos itself using test_all_sandia
- Step 2: Testing of Kokkos integrated into Trilinos (scripts/trilinos-integration/*.sh)
- Step 3: Close all issues labeled "InDevelop"
- Step 4: Locally update CHANGELOG, merge into master, edit scripts/master_history.txt
- Step 5: Locally snapshot new master into corresponding Trilinos branch (develop or temporary), push with checking-test-sems.sh
- Step 6: Push local Kokkos master to GitHub (need Owner approval)
Steps 1, 2, and 4 include testing that may fail. These failures must be fixed either by pull requests to Kokkos develop, or by creating a new Trilinos branch for parts of Trilinos that must be updated. This is what usually takes the most time.
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 1: The following should be repeated on enough machines to cover all
supported compilers. Those machines are:
kokkos-dev
??? <- TODO: identify other machines
1.1. Clone kokkos develop branch (or just switch to it)
git clone -b develop git@github.com:kokkos/kokkos.git
cd kokkos
1.2. Create a testing directory
mkdir testing
cd testing
1.3. Run the test_all_sandia script with no options to test all compilers
nohup ../scripts/test_all_sandia &
tail -f nohup.out # to watch progress
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 2:
2.1. Build and test Trilinos with 4 different configurations; Run scripts for white and shepard that are provided in kokkos/scripts/trilinos-integration. These scripts load their own modules/environment, so don't require preparation. You can run all four at the same time, use separate directories for each.
mkdir serial
cd serial
nohup KOKKOS_PATH/scripts/trilinos-integration/shepard_jenkins_run_script_serial_intel &
2.2. Compare the compile errors and test failures between updated and pristine versions. There may be compile failures that happen in both, tests that fail in both, and there may be tests that only fail some times (thus, rerun tests manually as needed).
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 3: Close all issues labeled "InDevelop"
Use the GitHub web interface: https://github.com/kokkos/kokkos/issues?q=is%3Aopen+is%3Aissue+label%3AInDevelop
Select all with checkbox in upper left, "Mark as closed"
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 4: This step should be run on kokkos-dev
4.1. If you don't have a GitHub token already, generate one for yourself (this will give you TOKEN):
https://github.com/settings/tokens
4.2. Get a clean copy of the Kokkos develop branch
git clone -b develop git@github.com:kokkos/kokkos.git
cd kokkos
4.3. If you haven't already, install Ruby and the "github_changelog_generator" "gem"
The github_changelog_generator is here: https://github.com/skywinder/github-changelog-generator
Its compatible Ruby version can be found here: https://github.com/skywinder/github-changelog-generator/blob/master/.ruby-version
Grab the corresponding Ruby version from here: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/downloads/
Follow the usual configure,make,make install process: https://www.ruby-lang.org/en/documentation/installation/#building-from-source
Note that you will likely have to install to a non-default location with "./configure --prefix=/path"
4.4. Generate the initial changelog. Use the most recent tag as OLDTAG (`git tag -l` can show you all tags). The NEWTAG is the new version number, e.g. "2.04.00". RUN THIS OUTSIDE THE KOKKOS SOURCE TREE!
github_changelog_generator kokkos/kokkos --token TOKEN --no-pull-requests --include-labels 'InDevelop' --exclude-labels 'question,DevelopOnly' --enhancement-labels 'enhancement,Feature Request' --future-release 'NEWTAG' --between-tags 'NEWTAG,OLDTAG'
cat CHANGELOG.md
Note: you may need to set an HTTPS proxy in order for this script to work:
export https_proxy=http://wwwproxy.sandia.gov:80
4.5. Manually cleanup and commit the change log.
(Copy the new section from the generated CHANGELOG.md to KOKKOS_PATH/CHANGELOG.md)
(Make desired changes to CHANGELOG.md to enhance clarity (remove issues not noteworthy))
(Commit the CHANGELOG.md locally to develop)
The changelog commit message should be:
Adding Changelog for Release A.B.CD
Part of Kokkos C++ Performance Portability Programming EcoSystem A.B
4.6. Merge develop into master. DO NOT FAST-FORWARD THE MERGE!!!!
DO NOT USE AN OLD GIT VERSION!!!!
(From kokkos directory):
git checkout master
git merge --no-ff develop
The merge commit message should be:
Merge branch 'develop' for A.B.CD
Part of Kokkos C++ Performance Portability Programming EcoSystem A.B
4.7. Update the tag in kokkos/scripts/master_history.txt
Tag description: MajorNumber.MinorNumber.WeeksSinceMinorNumberUpdate
Tag field widths: #.#.##
date description: month:day:year
date field widths: ##:##:####
master description: SHA1 of previous master commit (use `git log --first-parent master`)
develop description: SHA1 of merged develop branch (use `git log develop`)
SHA1 field width: ######## (8 chars)
# Append to scripts/master_history.txt:
tag: 2.03.13 date: 07:27:2017 master: da314444 develop: 29ccb58a
git commit --amend -a
Keep the merge commit as described in 4.6
4.8. Create the new tag:
git tag -a #.#.##
(type the following into the tag message (same as for step 4.7))
tag: #.#.##
date: mm/dd/yyyy
master: sha1
develop: sha1
4.9. DO NOT PUSH YET !!!
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 5: This step can be done on any SEMS machine (e.g. kokkos-dev). Actually, the checkin step requires lots of disk space and RAM. Use ceerws1113 if you have access to it.
5.1. Clone the Trilinos corresponding branch (or just switch to it)
git clone -b kokkos-develop git@github.com:trilinos/Trilinos.git
TRILINOS_PATH=$PWD/Trilinos
5.2. Snapshot Kokkos into Trilinos - this requires python/2.7.9 and that both Trilinos and Kokkos be clean - no untracked or modified files. Run the following outside of the Kokkos and Trilinos source trees.
* Use the master branch of Kokkos for this.
module load sems-python/2.7.9
python $KOKKOS_PATH/scripts/snapshot.py $KOKKOS_PATH $TRILINOS_PATH/packages
If snapshotting kokkos-kernels, use the snapshot.py in kokkos.
5.3. Push this Trilinos branch to GitHub, open a pull request for it.
The pull request title should be
Kokkos + KokkosKernels Promotion To Version X.X.XX
Mention @trilinos/kokkos and @trilinos/kokkos-kernels
Add a short description of the most significant features and bug fixes.
Then add:
## Kokkos Changelog
And copy-paste the content for this release from the kokkos CHANGELOG.md file, then do the same for kokkos-kernels under:
## KokkosKernels Changelog
5.4. Wait for Trilinos Autotester results
5.5. If there are failures, fix and backtrack. Otherwise, go to next step
// -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- //
Step 6: Push Kokkos master and develop to GitHub (requires Owner permission).
6.1. Master branch:
cd KOKKOS_PATH
git checkout master
git push --follow-tags origin master
6.2. Develop branch: First merge (--no-ff) master back into develop
cd KOKKOS_PATH
git checkout develop
git merge --no-ff maseter
git push origin develop
