How to create a poudriere jail for a specific git hash of 15.0-CURRENT?

[Craig Leres]

I just updated my pfsense box to 24.03_1 and according to this page:

https://docs.netgate.com/pfsense/en/latest/releases/versions.html

23.04 is built from 15.0-***@a5a965d75934. How do I create a
poudriere jail for this specific hash?

I see how to create a *newer* version:

poudriere jail -x -c -j pfsense2403 -a arm64.aarch64 -m git+https \
-U https://git.freebsd.org/src.git -b releng/15.0 -v main

which I assume uses the most current hash.

Looking at the -m flag I suppose I could clone 15-CURRENT, "git checkout
a5a965d75934", and then use -b -m src=path? Is that my best option?

That's exactly how I do it. Though, using `-m src=...` requires one to
do a buildworld first:

$ cd /data/src
$ git clone ssh://***@git.freebsd.org/src.git freebsd
$ cd freebsd
$ git reset --hard a5a965d75934
$ make -sj$(sysctl -n hw.ncpu) buildworld
$ sudo poudriere jail -c -m src=/data/src/freebsd -j current -p local

Thanks,

$ sudo poudriere jail -c -m src=/data/src/freebsd -j current -p local

It worked for me without the buildworld. I did use the -b flag:

-b Build the source provided with the -m src=path option.

To wrap up here's what I did:

zfs create -o mountpoint=/usr/src/15-CURRENT -o compress=lz4
tank/15-CURRENT
cd /usr/src
git clone https://git.freebsd.org/src.git 15-CURRENT
cd 15-CURRENT
git checkout a5a965d75934
poudriere jail -x -c -j pfsense2403 -a arm64.aarch64 -m
src=/usr/src/15-CURRENT -b

Also note that I'm cross-compiling (my build server is amd64).

Oh, cool! It has been a while since I looked at the manual page for
poudriere-build. I didn't know that option existed. I might just use
-b in the future. Thanks for the hint!
