Subject: [cuirass] Failure to write build log leads to build failure
Date: Tue, 20 Aug 2024 00:41:14 +0200

We occasionally see failed builds with truncated logs on ci.guix.  These
happens in situations where ‘cuirass remote-worker’ gets EPIPE as it
sends the build log to ‘remote-server’:

The “unexpected error while building” message was added in
ba3ea7947ec67e9d9585e40a30d67dbd8115e73c.

This suggests that the ‘catch #t’ around the ‘send-log’ call doesn’t
have the desired effect; instead, the ‘guard’ handler is invoked.

It looks like EPIPE comes from the pipe set up by ‘build-derivations&’
and that the underlying ‘build-derivations’ call keeps writing to even
after ‘send-log’ has closed it.
