CI-Scripts and RTEMS Cached files on GHA

["Johnson, Andrew N. via Core-talk" <core-talk at aps.anl.gov>]

Earlier today I had to clear the cached copies of the dependencies for the 3 RTEMS builds of pvAccessCPP. Looking at this run, despite apparently successfully restoring the cached copies:

 

Received 174353040 of 174353040 (100.0%), 169.5 MBs/sec

17Cache Size: ~166 MB (174353040 B)

18/usr/bin/tar -z -xf /home/runner/work/_temp/0a59dd1a-0e60-48ac-aa81-7b50d65052c4/cache.tgz -P -C /home/runner/work/pvAccessCPP/pvAccessCPP

19Cache restored successfully

20Cache restored from key: 7.0/ubuntu-20.04/gcc/default/5/RTEMS-pc686-qemu/

 

the main builds were failing with this error:

 

make[2]: Leaving directory '/home/runner/work/pvAccessCPP/pvAccessCPP/configure/O.linux-x86_64'

45 perl -CSD /home/runner/.cache/base-7.0/bin/linux-x86_64/convertRelease.pl checkRelease

I am also seeing these "Annotations" about the run from GHA which I suspect may be related:

 

7.0 Ub-20 gcc-9 + RT-5.1 pc686

Node.js 16 actions are deprecated. Please update the following actions to use Node.js 20: actions/checkout@v2, actions/cache@v2, actions/upload-artifact@v2. For more information see: https://github.blog/changelog/2023-09-22-github-actions-transitioning-from-node-16-to-node-20/.

Show less

7.0 Ub-20 gcc-9 + RT-5.1 pc686

The following actions uses node12 which is deprecated and will be forced to run on node16: actions/checkout@v2, actions/cache@v2, actions/upload-artifact@v2. For more info: https://github.blog/changelog/2023-06-13-github-actions-all-actions-will-run-on-node16-instead-of-node12-by-default/

 

On deleting the cached data the dependencies are rebuilt and the main build succeeds (see run #70), but it fails again on subsequent builds (#71). I just cleared the caches again and re-ran the failed builds which I hope will succeed.

 

Can anyone explain what needs to be done to fix this properly?

 

Thanks,

 

- Andrew
