linux-next: triage for March 6, 2012
From: Paul Gortmaker
Date: Tue Mar 06 2012 - 21:43:09 EST
Due to the nature of the commits I've been making lately, when I see
a fail in linux-next, I have to wonder if I somehow caused it by a
header shuffle. After pouring over the kisskb linux-next results,
I realized that I can't be the only one doing this, and that a triage
summary of the linux-next fails should in theory be useful to a
bunch of people doing similar to what I do.
Quite a few fixes from me in the last while, since once you've done
the triage, you are 95% of the way towards a fix, and so I tried to
capitalize on that. No guarantees I can sustain that level of
investigation and fixing though. I expect a "this broke it" type
report (without a fix) is more likely going forward.
In any case, I'm not sure how sustainable this is during a merge
window, but lets start with this for now and see where it goes.
It will inevitably lag the linux-next release by about a day,
since the routine builds take close to that to complete.
If you see an entry that you have updated data for, please do
let me know. I'd rather report vs. reinvestigate. If you
think this concept is useful, please also let me know, since
that will no doubt influence whether I spend time on it.
Ideally, if we can keep the kisskb builds as close to 100%
green as possible, then we'll have direct visibility into any
new breakage. Having builds sit broken for six months only
manages to mask visibility into new breakage issues. :(
Thanks,
Paul.
