Buildbot needs some maintenance, as some of the buildslaves are behaving badly :-(

1)
gb15 has a wrong host key and silently fails all uploads. It just completed 4 builds successfully, but did not upload them. That has been going on for some time now. It is rather sad that the buildbot script silently fails the binary uploads, because that makes the error hard to notice. The build shows green on the status screen, so unless you wonder about the missing binaries of a successful build and really check the upload step's log file, you won't notice the error. It would be great if the buildbot upload script could be modified to show the upload error more clearly.

2)
wyrding timeouts the imagebuilder/SDK tar file creation step for the largest firmwares. I have noticed that as ar71xx has suffered from that several times in the last few weeks. The 20 minutes given for waiting for any output from the process is sometimes too short for the tar file creation step and the buildbot breaks the build. Apparently "tar" does not produce any intermediate output. (When that timeout happens, the file cleanup step may also take hours, so there may be something wrong with the buildslave's disk or I/O in general.)
[snip]

We're checking these, hopefully both will resolve with the next round of builds.

Thanks,
