Build results: total: 137 pass: 137 fail: 0 Qemu test results: total: 321 pass: 320 fail: 1 Failed tests: powerpc:g3beige:ppc_book3s_defconfig:nosmp:ide:rootfs
What is the status of that powerpc failure fix? What's the odds it can get into mainline soon?
The fix has been -next for about a week.
da08d8cb8cfc of: unittest: Disable interrupt node tests for old world MAC systems
You'll have to ask Rob (copied) if he plans to send a pull request before the next commit window opens.
I wasn't planning to as it's just for the unittest and has been that way for how long? Why's the unittest enabled for a defconfig anyways?
I enabled it to improve test coverage for stable releases. This is how I found the problem in the first place. Are you suggesting that I should not run DT unit tests for stable release candidates ?
There was another g3beige fix (e54192b48da7 of: fix phandle cache creation for DTs with no phandles) which is tagged for stable. Not sure if qemu would hit the issue though.
Depends if there is a test that can be enabled which hits the problem.
Thanks, Guenter
