Follow-up to PR #6093 (reusables for legacy-binlog-g1 / mysql90-binlog-g1 / mysql95-binlog-g1, already merged). That PR made the workflows wire up but didn't fix the actual mysql84-binlog-g1 failure mode that the issue tracks.

Problem

ci-builds.yml deletes test/deps/ from the workspace before packing the _test cache to save ~700 MB. The deletion also wipes the mysqlbinlog binary that the mysql-connector-c-8.4.0 build produced as a side effect of make (output at test/deps/mysql-connector-c-8.4.0/<src>/runtime_output_directory/mysqlbinlog). test_com_binlog_dump_enables_fast_forward-t shells out to ${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog at runtime, so it fails with sh: 1: .../mysqlbinlog: not found. Reproduced on PR #6094's rerun against 16c23c2f2: the symlink was created (lrwxrwxrwx ... -> /usr/bin/mysqlbinlog) but /usr/bin/mysqlbinlog doesn't exist in the runner container because Ubuntu 24.04's mysql-client does not ship mysqlbinlog (only the mysql, mysqladmin, mysqldump family — mysqlbinlog is in mysql-server-core-8.0).

Fix

Before the sudo rm -rf test/deps line, copy the freshly-built mysqlbinlog into test/tap/tap/bin/. test/tap/tap/ is inside the _test cache's tar -cf - test/ root, so the binary survives the cache prune. The runner at test/infra/control/run-tests-isolated.bash already finds the workspace for a mysqlbinlog executable and symlinks it into ${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog — that part already works (verified on the rerun, the symlink was created); it just had nothing to symlink to before.

~37 MB extra in the _test cache (mysqlbinlog is a debug-mode binary). Negligible vs. the ~700 MB saved by the rest of the prune.

Closes

#6092.

Companion

#6094 (v3.0) lands the runner-side symlink fallback at the same time. The two land independently — this PR is purely a build-side change.


Summary by cubic

Stages mysqlbinlog into the _test cache before pruning test/deps, so binlog TAP tests can find it via the runner symlink. Previously, pruning removed the mysql-connector-c-8.4.0-built mysqlbinlog, causing test_com_binlog_dump_enables_fast_forward-t failures on Ubuntu 24.04; now the binary survives with a ~37 MB cache increase.

  • Adds a copy step in .github/workflows/ci-builds.yml that glob-matches test/deps/mysql-connector-c-8.4.0/mysql-*/runtime_output_directory/mysqlbinlog, stages it into test/tap/tap/bin/, sets executable perms, and warns if not found.
  • Leverages existing runner logic to find and symlink the staged binary into ${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog; no other workflow changes.
  • No migration required; all CI test jobs using the _test cache will have mysqlbinlog available.

Written for commit 3350038. Summary will update on new commits.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Tests

    • Improved TAP test build reliability by preserving the generated mysqlbinlog executable for use in the test environment.
    • Added a warning when the executable cannot be found, allowing the build process to continue and provide clearer diagnostics.
  • Chores

    • Updated continuous integration handling for generated test artifacts.

ci-builds.yml deletes test/deps/ before packing the _test cache to
save ~700 MB. The deletion also wipes the mysqlbinlog binary that the
mysql-connector-c-8.4.0 build produced at
test/deps/mysql-connector-c-8.4.0/<src>/runtime_output_directory/mysqlbinlog
-- which test_com_binlog_dump_enables_fast_forward-t then needs at
runtime (it shells out to ${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog).

Copy the binary into test/tap/tap/bin/ (inside the _test cache's tar
root) before the rm, so it survives the prune. The runner at
test/infra/control/run-tests-isolated.bash will then `find` it and
symlink it into TEST_DEPS/mysqlbinlog. ~37 MB extra in the _test
cache; negligible vs. the ~700 MB saved by dropping the rest.

Closes #6092.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The TAP build now searches for the generated mysqlbinlog executable, copies it into the persistent TAP test cache, and continues with a warning when no executable is found.

Changes

TAP mysqlbinlog cache

Layer / File(s) Summary
Stage mysqlbinlog before dependency cleanup
.github/workflows/ci-builds.yml
The workflow searches MySQL 8.4 runtime output directories, copies the first executable match to test/tap/tap/bin/mysqlbinlog, sets executable permissions, and warns when no match exists.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 33500

If the expected mysqlbinlog binary is absent, the workflow can still publish an incomplete test cache and later fail the binlog TAP test; merge should wait until cache publication is guarded, alongside correcting the inaccurate glob comment.

Poem

A bunny found the binlog tool,
And tucked it where tests stay cool.
Before dependencies hop away,
It copies the tool to its cache today.
If none appears, a warning sings—
Then TAP proceeds on steady wings.

Correct the documented glob.

Line 521 describes mysql-*-8.4*, but Line 528 uses mysql-*. The documented pattern would not match the current mysql-8.4.0 directory. Align the comment with the actual glob.

Suggested comment fix

Do not publish an incomplete test cache.

When no binary matches, these lines only emit a warning. The later cache steps still package test/ without test/tap/tap/bin/mysqlbinlog. test/tap/tests/test_com_binlog_dump_enables_fast_forward-t.cpp:12-29 executes ${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog, so that cache cannot satisfy the test.

Fail the build here, or skip cache publication when the required test is present.

PR #6094 was failing on mysql84-binlog-g1 because the
test/infra/control/run-tests-isolated.bash symlink fallback created
${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog -> /usr/bin/mysqlbinlog, but /usr/bin/mysqlbinlog
doesn't exist in the runner image (Ubuntu 24.04's mysql-client does
NOT ship mysqlbinlog). PR #6096 lands the real fix: ci-builds.yml now
copies the freshly-built mysqlbinlog (from the mysql-connector-c-8.4.0
build) into test/tap/tap/bin/ before the test/deps/ prune, so the
existing runner `find` has something to symlink to.

The next CI-builds run on this branch will use the updated ci-builds.yml
via the GH-Actions ref, producing a _test cache that contains
test/tap/tap/bin/mysqlbinlog. The binlog TAP tests will then resolve
${TEST_DEPS}/mysqlbinlog to a real binary.

Closes #6092.
