When using #define CONFIG_SOME_OPTION, the value it set to '1'. When using
defconfig (i.e. CONFIG_SOME_OPTION=y) the value is set to 'y'. This results
in differences showing up with -K. These differences are seldom useful.
Adjust buildman to suppress these differences by default.

Normally buildman does a full build of a board. This includes creating the
u-boot.cfg file which contains all the configuration options. Buildman uses
this file with the -K option, to show differences in effective configuration
for each commit.
Doing a full build of U-Boot just to create the u-boot.cfg file is wasteful.
Add a -D option which causes buildman to only create the configuration. This
is enough to support use of -K and can be done much more quickly (typically
5-10 times faster).

When Ctrl-C is pressed, just exited quietly. There is no sense in displaying
a stack trace since buildman will always be in the same place: waiting for
threads to complete building all the jobs on the queue.

It is annoying that buildman does not respond cleanly to Ctrl-C or SIGINT,

Make it clear when buildman actually starts building. This happens when it
has prepared the threads, working directory and output directories.
Signed-off-by: Simon Glass <sjg@chromium.org>
When buildman starts, it prepares its output directory by removing any old
build directories which will not be used this time. This can happen if a
previous build left directories around for commit hashes which are no-longer
part of the branch.
This can take quite a while, so print a message to indicate what is going
on.

On a machine with a lot of CPUs this prints a lot of useless lines of the
form:
Cloning repo for thread <n>
Adjust the output so that these all appear on one line, and disappear when
the cloning is complete.
Note: This cloning is actually unnecessary and very wasteful on disk space
(about 3.5GB each time). It would be better to create symlinks.

One use-case for buildman is to continually run it interactively after
each small step in a large refactoring operation. This gives more
immediate feedback than making a number of commits and then going back and
testing them. For this to work well, buildman needs to be extremely fast.
At present, a couple issues prevent it being as fast as it could be:
1) Each time buildman runs "make %_defconfig", it runs "make mrproper"
first. This throws away all previous build results, requiring a
from-scratch build. Optionally avoiding this would speed up the build, at
the cost of potentially causing or missing some build issues.
2) A build tree is created per thread rather than per board. When a thread
switches between building different boards, this often causes many files
to be rebuilt due to changing config options. Using a separate build tree
for each board would avoid this. This does put more strain on the system's
disk cache, but it is worth it on my system at least.
This commit adds two command-line options to implement the changes
described above; -I ("--incremental") turns of "make mrproper" and -P
("--per-board-out-dir") creats a build directory per board rather than per
thread.
Tested:
./tools/buildman/buildman.py tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -I -P tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -b tegra_dev tegra
./tools/buildman/buildman.py -b tegra_dev -I -P tegra
... each once after deleting the buildman result/work directory, and once
"incrementally" after a previous identical invocation.

At present buildman can compare configurations between commits but the
feature is less useful than it could be. There is no summary by architecture
and changes are not reported on a per-board basis.
Correct these deficiencies so that it is possible to see exactly what is
changing for any number of boards.
Note that 'buildman -b <branch> -C' is recommended for any build where you
will be comparing configuration. Without -C the correct configuration will
not be reported since changes will often not be picked up.

It is useful to be able to see CONFIG changes made by commits. Add this
feature to buildman using the -K flag so that all CONFIG changes are

Normally buildman operates in two passes - one to do the build and another
to summarise the errors. Add a verbose option (-v) to display build problems
as they happen. With -e also given, this will display errors too.

branch), both -v and -e are enabled automatically.

We need the output options to be available in several places. It's a pain

Normally buildman wil try to configure U-Boot for a particular board on the
first commit that it builds in a series. Subsequent commits are built
without reconfiguring which normally works. Where it doesn't, buildman
automatically reconfigures and retries.

this optimisation.

After a build fails buildman will reconfigure and try again, if it did not

bit for failing builds. Previously they would always be built twice.

Generally a build failure with a particular commit cannot be fixed except
by changing that commit. Changing the commit will automatically cause
buildman to retry when you run it again: buildman sees that the commit
hash is different and that it has no previous build result for the new
commit hash.
However sometimes the build failure is due to a toolchain issue or some
other environment problem. In that case, retrying failed builds may yield
a different result.
Add a flag to retry failed builds. This differs from the force rebuild
flag (-f) in that it will not rebuild commits which are already marked as
succeeded.
