Jenkins multiconfiguration project handle concurrent device usage - testing

Question

Case
I have a Jenkins slave witch run's calabash tests on mobile devices (android, ios). To separate on which machines (the mac for iOS or Linux for Android) the tests is run, I also use the Throttle Concurrent Builds Plug-in. This way I separate between the Android or Mac Jenkins slaves the devices are hooked to.
I use a mapping table and a self written bash script to call a device by name and execute a test on this specific slave. The mapping table map's the name to the device id (or IP for iOS).
The architecture is as follows:
[Master]--(Slave-iOS)---------iPhone6
| |--------------iPhone5
|
|--------(Slave-Android)-----HTCOne
|--------------Nexus
|--------------G4
To hand over the device to the bash script I use the Jenkins Matrix Project Plugin, which lets me create a list of devices and test cases like:
HTCOne Nexus G4
Run x x x
Delete x x x
CreateUser x x x
Sadly this list can only be executed sequentially. Now I also want to build tests on multiple devices in parallel and cross vice versa.
Question
I search for a Jenkins plugin which handles devices allocation. If one trigger needs a specific device it should wait until this one is accessible and the test can be executed. The plugin should integrate with the shell execution in Jenkins.
A big plus would be, if it can be combined with the Matrix Project Plugin!
What I looked into so far:
Exclusion-Plugin,
Throttle Concurrent Builds Plug-in, [used to specifiy the slave]
Locks and Latches plugin,
For all the listed ones so far, I don't know how to link them to the matrix configuration and get a device dynamically. I also don't know
how to get the locked resource information into my script.
Port Allocator Plugin, not tested but seems to have the same problem
External Resource Dispatcher, seem to allocate only one resource and is not finding anything if it is a matrix configuration.
Related questions I found, which helped but didn't solved the problem:
How to prevent certain Jenkins jobs from running simultaneously?
Jenkins: group jobs and limit build processors for this group
Jenkins to not allow the same job to run concurrently on the same node?
How do I ensure that only one of a certain category of job runs at once in Hudson?

Answer 1

If Throttle Concurrent Builds Plugin doesn't work as required in your multi-configuration project, try
Exclusion Plugin with a dynamic resource name, like: SEMAPHORE_MATRIX_${NODE_NAME}
Then add a Build step "Critical block start" (and an optional "Critical block end" step), which will hold this build block execution until SEMAPHORE_MATRIX_${NODE_NAME} is not in use on any other job, including the current Matrix child jobs.
(... Build steps to be run only when SEMAPHORE_MATRIX_${NODE_NAME} is available ...)
