I'm not sure this is going to be the right tool for test-suite=20 integration -- in fact, I'd argue that CI stuff should remain wholly=20 outside of its scope. The goal is to make it easier to send good,=20 acceptable patches (even if their content is no good). CI and any other=20 automated testing should happen after these patches have hit LKML (and=20 any other lists), if only because there is no One True Place That Does=20 CI, and things like 0daybot/syzbot/etc are already honed to work via the=20 mailing list. That said, I'm open to be convinced otherwise if others want this to=20 happen *before* patches land on the mailing lists. If that is the case,=20 we will want to rope kernelci folks into this discussion. >Please let me know if there's some opportunity to follow up with you on=20 >this >( ie, a list where this might be discussed in more detail, or an event whe= re we >could talk face-to-face). I'll be at the Kernel Summit in Vancouver, and I believe at least Kevin=20 of KernelCI fame will be there, too. -K --zYM0uCDKw75PZbzx Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name="signature.asc" -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iHUEABYIAB0WIQR2vl2yUnHhSB5njDW2xBzjVmSZbAUCW6FQ1AAKCRC2xBzjVmSZ bFf6AP9MmPYhiuWqt6vKTlUr6fPGhusJgmpOd5iyE720No8c9QD9EIBM4ub2b7Jx ohn1jDdYY24FyR3R/Re9P0KYbB9sawk= =22n2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --zYM0uCDKw75PZbzx--
