Tamir Duberstein 51483bb583 [codex] parallelize Windows package archives (#27854)
In the Windows x64 packaging job from

https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/27391514823

building the primary and app-server package archives serially took 116
seconds.

Both archives read the same signed-binary directory but write separate
package trees and output files. Run them concurrently with xargs -P2.

The package helper rewrites DotSlash executables under the process temp
directory. A naive concurrent run failed when one process tried to
replace an executable used by the other. Give each bundle separate TMP
and TEMP roots to keep those caches independent.

On Windows x64 in

https://github.com/openai/codex/actions/runs/27397197944

three serial trials took 127, 128, and 126 seconds. Concurrent trials
took 76, 74, and 74 seconds, saving 52 to 54 seconds. This removes about
50 seconds from the release critical path without changing the packaging
commands or output set.

Workflow Strategy

The workflows in this directory are split so that pull requests get fast, review-friendly signal while main still gets the full cross-platform verification pass.

Pull Requests

  • bazel.yml is the main pre-merge verification path for Rust code. It runs Bazel test and Bazel clippy on the supported Bazel targets, including the generated Rust test binaries needed to lint inline #[cfg(test)] code.
  • rust-ci.yml keeps the Cargo-native PR checks intentionally small:
    • cargo fmt --check
    • cargo shear
    • argument-comment-lint on Linux, macOS, and Windows
    • tools/argument-comment-lint package tests when the lint or its workflow wiring changes

Post-Merge On main

  • bazel.yml also runs on pushes to main. This re-verifies the merged Bazel path and helps keep the BuildBuddy caches warm.
  • rust-ci-full.yml is the full Cargo-native verification workflow. It keeps the heavier checks off the PR path while still validating them after merge:
    • the full Cargo clippy matrix
    • the full Cargo nextest matrix via per-platform archive-backed shards
    • Windows ARM64 nextest archives cross-compiled on Windows x64, then replayed on native Windows ARM64 shards
    • release-profile Cargo builds
    • cross-platform argument-comment-lint
    • Linux remote-env tests

Rule Of Thumb

  • If a build/test/clippy check can be expressed in Bazel, prefer putting the PR-time version in bazel.yml.
  • Keep rust-ci.yml fast enough that it usually does not dominate PR latency.
  • Reserve rust-ci-full.yml for heavyweight Cargo-native coverage that Bazel does not replace yet.
