Partial Build [Possibly due to parallelization]

[zoffixznet]

The screenshot below shows a partial build of the Language docs, even though the build log shows them built. Visiting the missing pages directly gave a 404.

This issue may or may not have been caused by 8d83f42 that added parallelzation. We undid it in d41f52e and the docs built fine.

Some more testing needs to be done with the parallelization feature turned on.

I would not have --parallel enabled for whatever auto-builds the docs for docs.perl6.org. I believe my code is correct, but Rakudo just doesn't implement it well enough (yet). On my machine it's actually still faster to just run with --parallel a couple times until it completes, versus running it serially, but unless the script loops until the exit status is ok I'd leave it on the old behavior for the website.

The parallel code causes SEGVs and other oddities. A barebones version of htmlify that exhibits the issue is on the coke/bughunt branch

jnthn++ fixed the issues I had golfed down on the coke/bughunt branch - need to investigate what issues are left with --parallel now.

The remaining one I know about is the code-gen for NEXT phasers in while/until/loop has issues, which show up under recursion of concurrency. There may be further problems in htmlify.p6 and its related modules beyond those I already fixed, however. Guess we'll see after the NEXT bug is addressed.

@jnthn ticket id?

What's the current status of this? If I got this correctly, parallelization is turned off but we would like to turn it on for, among other things, speed up test, right?

It looks like this issue has been addressed and is no longer needed. I'll close it, please clarify and reopen it if necessary.
