ci: Temporarily move CI from Cirrus to GHA #35140

maflcko commented at 3:31 PM on April 22, 2026: member

Cirrus Runners was purchased by OpenAI, which promptly shut it down (dig cirrus-runners.app is empty).

So temporarily move the runners from OpenAI to Microsoft.

I thought they were supposed to keep going until June 1, but it looks like the runners are gone... All current CI tasks that used their runners are stuck on "waiting for a runner".

Yeah, idk either. I can also only see that it is down, but we'll have to do the switch anyway, and this is just a temporary workaround.

If the CI passes here, but not otherwise, it seems fine to merge, but should also be fine to wait longer.

Interesting as it has been working on forks. I wonder if a primed cache would have helped. I see you have updated the timeouts now which seems reasonable.

m3dwards commented at 8:30 PM on April 22, 2026: contributor

Concept ACK, even if this only a very temporary solution. Things will back up and be very slow but some runs is better than no runs.

Yeah, seems fine to close if that is merged.

Though, out of curiosity, I wonder why the caches are missed here (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/pull/35140#issuecomment-4519205509), considering that they were moved to GHA in #35348, and considering that this pull does not change anything about the caching.
