Update the documentation on "How to Release LLVM". It lays out a new way of
tagging and branching for the release. I will update this more throughout the 2.9 release process. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@126604 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

<p>LLVM is released on a time based schedule — roughly every 6 months. We
|
||||||
|
do not normally have dot releases because of the nature of LLVM's incremental
|
||||||
|
development philosophy. That said, the only thing preventing dot releases for
|
||||||
|
critical bug fixes from happening is a lack of resources — testers,
|
||||||
|
machines, time, etc. And, because of the high quality we desire for LLVM
|
||||||
|
releases, we cannot allow for a truncated form of release qualification.</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<p>The release process is roughly as follows:</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<ul>
|
||||||
|
<li><p>Set code freeze and branch creation date for 6 months after last code
|
||||||
|
freeze date. Announce release schedule to the LLVM community and update
|
||||||
|
the website.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>Create release branch and begin release process.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>Send out release candidate sources for first round of testing. Testing
|
||||||
|
lasts 7-10 days. During the first round of testing, any regressions found
|
||||||
|
should be fixed. Patches are merged from mainline into the release
|
||||||
|
branch. Also, all features need to be completed during this time. Any
|
||||||
|
features not completed at the end of the first round of testing will be
|
||||||
|
removed or disabled for the release.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>Generate and send out the second release candidate sources. Only
|
||||||
|
<em>critial</em> bugs found during this testing phase will be fixed. Any
|
||||||
|
bugs introduced by merged patches will be fixed. If so a third round of
|
||||||
|
testing is needed.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>The release notes are updated.</p></li>
|
||||||
|

<p>Below are the rules regarding patching the release branch:</p>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<ol>
|
||||||
|
<li><p>Patches applied to the release branch may only be applied by the
|
||||||
|
release manager.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>During the first round of testing, patches that fix regressions or that
|
||||||
|
are small and relatively risk free (verified by the appropriate code
|
||||||
|
owner) are applied to the branch. Code owners are asked to be very
|
||||||
|
conservative in approving patches for the branch. We reserve the right to
|
||||||
|
reject any patch that does not fix a regression as previously
|
||||||
|
defined.</p></li>
|
||||||
|
|
||||||
|
<li><p>During the remaining rounds of testing, only patches that fix critical
|
||||||
|
regressions may be applied.</p></li>
