February 2025 (2025-02) - p4lang/p4c: Delivered Build System Modernization and CI Efficiency to boost reliability, performance, and developer productivity. Key changes include: 1) Buildifier prebuilt in CI via a new format_bazel_files job, speeding up and stabilizing Bazel file formatting and removing reliance on building Buildifier from source. 2) Bazel toolchain modernization with Clang as the C++ compiler, upgraded rules_foreign_cc and protobuf, and enforcing C++17 for host/target builds to improve compatibility, security, and performance. These changes reduced CI time, improved determinism, and eased maintenance. Major bugs fixed include CI reliability bottlenecks and formatting flakes by decoupling Buildifier from CI and stabilizing the toolchain. Overall impact: faster and more reliable CI feedback loop, shorter PR validation times, and a stronger security posture. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Bazel, Buildifier, Clang-based C++ toolchain, rules_foreign_cc, protobuf, C++17, CI/CD optimization, automation.
