This changes the build script to build all the things in one go
invocation, instead of one invocation per cmd. This is a lot faster
because it means more things get compiled concurrently. It's especially
a lot faster when things *don't* need to be rebuilt, possibly because it
only needs to build the dependency map and such once instead of once per
binary.
In order for this to work we need to be able to pass the same ldflags to
all the binaries. This means we can't set the program name with an
ldflag.
When it needs to rebuild everything (go clean -cache):
( ./old-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 65.82s user 11.28s system 574% cpu 13.409 total
( ./new-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 63.26s user 7.12s system 1220% cpu 5.766 total
On a subsequent run (nothing to build, just link the binaries):
( ./old-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 26.58s user 7.53s system 582% cpu 5.853 total
( ./new-build -gocmd go1.14.2 build all 2> /dev/null; ) 18.66s user 2.45s system 1090% cpu 1.935 total
This makes the GC runner a service that will stop fairly quickly when
told to.
As a bonus, STTRACE=app will print the service tree on the way out,
including any errors they've flagged.
* release:
lib/db: Don't get blocklists on drop and missing continue (ref #6457) (#6502)
Revert "cmd/syncthing: Do auto-upgrade before startup (fixes#6384) (#6385)"
lib/ur: Correct freaky error handling (fixes#6499) (#6500)
So, in a funny plot twist, it turns out that WriteFile in Go 1.13
doesn't actually set the read only bit on Windows when called with
permissions 0444 so my test was broken. With an improved test it turns
out that Rename does not, in fact, overwrite a read-only file on
Windows. This adds a fix for that.
(Rename might get improved in Go 1.15...)
