[PATCH 0/4] CI improvements

["Maxim Yu. Osipov" <mosipov@ilbers.de>]

Hello everybody,

At the moment there is a confusion regarding CI build.
"Fast" CI build (called with parameter '-f') _cross_ builds 
3 most common (at least we think that) configurations
with cached base repository feature enabled:

 * multiconfig:qemuarm-stretch:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuarm64-stretch:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuamd64-stretch:isar-image-base

When default (w/o parameters) CI is called it _natively_ builds 
the following set of configurations:

 * multiconfig:qemuarm-jessie:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuarm-stretch:isar-image-base 
 * multiconfig:qemuarm-buster:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuarm64-stretch:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemui386-jessie:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemui386-stretch:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemui386-buster:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuamd64-jessie:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuamd64-stretch:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuamd64-buster:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:qemuamd64-buster-tgz:isar-image-base
 * multiconfig:rpi-jessie:isar-image-base

Unfortunately this set doesn't include supported configurations 
(real boards) 
 * multiconfig:bananapi-stretch.conf
 * hikey-stretch.conf
 * de0-nano-soc-stretch.conf

The reason is that these configurations include build of Linux kernel/U-Boot so 
the native build will last huge amount of time.

So the problem with two flavours (fast and default) of CI build is that they 
test different features for the subset of all supported configurations.

After upgrade of CI server we intend to increase a test coverage - 
 * Include cross builds for mentioned boards hikey, de0-nano-soc etc.
 * To use default build for overnight builds with different combination of features enabled 
 (native and cross, with or without used cached base repo etc.)

This patchset is the first step towards this direction.

Kind regards,
Maxim.


Maxim Yu. Osipov (4):
  ci: Introduce TARGETS_SET variable
  ci: Introduce --repro parameter to enable use of cached base
    repository
  ci: Include de0-nano-soc target into fast build
  ci: Disable use of cached base repository for fast build by default
