Leverage RADIUSS Shared CI in Caliper

[adrienbernede]

Per RADIUSS Shared CI documentation, here is a curated list of tasks to perform in order to leverage the shared CI infrastructure:

• Use uberenv to build Caliper dependencies and generate a CMake Cache file:

  • Setup Uberenv
  • Setup Radiuss-spack-configs
  • Build Caliper with Uberenv
  • Duplicate Caliper Spack package in Radiuss-spack-configs and update the implementation to use CachedCMakePackage

• Create a build-and-test script that takes a spack spec an input, the script must then:

  • Use uberenv to build the dependencies
  • Retrieve the generated CMake Cache file and use it to build Caliper and the tests
  • Test Caliper

RAJA has an example build-and-test script here.

• Setup the CI to use RADIUSS Shared CI.
  • We will prefer to have the mirroring up and running at this stage.
