Main's order of 7 October 2026 after a seed took 14 restarts and three minutes down on a glibc 2.39 binary. provision.sh:
step_zig (zig 0.17.0 from ziglang.org, sha256 from the official download index) and cargo-zigbuild 0.23.4 in the cargo tools.
tools/build-remote.sh --ship [--glibc 2.36]: cargo zigbuild --target x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.2.36 with zig as the C/C++
toolchain (the Mac's infra/cross/build-linux.sh recipe), artefacts from the target-triple dir, each checked by
tools/ci/glibc-ceiling-check.sh (need at most the ceiling; self-test fires on 2.38 against 2.36, passes 2.34 and 2.36;
--symbols reads a saved objdump -T text so CI needs no ELF tools). tools/workers-remote.sh builds the two GPU workers with
zig at 2.36 by default (GLIBC=native for clang). Proof on the box: fork 3bfe346f igneumd needs GLIBC_2.34 (47,023,120 B,
sha256 345dfb95...), igneum-miner GLIBC_2.34 (9,248,808 B, d09dc27b...), 3 min 17 s cold through zig; the workers at 2.36.
Rule: anything that ships to a seed or a HiveOS rig is built with --ship; a plain build (glibc 2.39) is for the box and
Ubuntu 24.04 hosts only.
