Take a look at the output of our current tests, I think you might find it to be a bit more flexible than you think. Also, this isn't our standard, we picked it because we needed a standard that the tools of today already understand. It might have issues and other problems, but we are not in the business of writing test output parsing tools, and we don't want to force everyone out there to write custom parsers. We want them to be able to use the tools they already have so they can test the kernel, and to do so as easily as possible. thanks, greg k-h _______________________________________________ dri-devel mailing list dri-devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/dri-devel
