.gitlab-ci.yml: add trigger per job
Triggering a single defconfig or runtime test job can be handy:
- when adding or changing a defconfig;
- when adding or changing a runtime test case;
- when fixing some bug on a use case tested by a runtime test case.
Currently there are 3 subsets of jobs that can easily be triggered by
pushing a temporary branch with specific suffix:
- to trigger only the check-* jobs:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:<name> # currently 4 jobs
- to trigger all defconfigs and all check-* jobs:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:<name>-defconfigs # currently 197 jobs
- to trigger all runtime tests and all check-* jobs:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:<name>-runtime-tests # currently 118 jobs
When the user wants to trigger a single defconfig or runtime test job,
hand-editing the .gitlab-ci.yml and creating a temporary commit are
currently needed.
Add 2 more subsets that can be triggered based on the name of the
branch pushed.
- to trigger one defconfig job:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:<name>-<defconfig name> # currently 1 jobs
- to trigger one runtime job:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:<name>-<test case name> # currently 1 jobs
The check-* jobs are fast, so there is no need to add a per job trigger
for them. Also, they are anyway triggered with every push already.
While adding those new triggers, use the full name of the job as suffix.
This leads to large branch names:
$ git push gitlab HEAD:test1-tests.toolchain.test_external.TestExternalToolchainBuildrootuClibc
$ git push gitlab HEAD:test2-olimex_a20_olinuxino_lime_legacy_defconfig
But those branches are temporary, and this way the user doesn't need to
think much, just copy and paste the job name as suffix.
The hidden keys that now hold the commonalities between jobs does not
hold only a script anymore, so rename then from *_script to *_base.
