Double checking the full picture of the impact: - Current - test result value list for igt (=default piglit): pass, warn, dmesg-warn, fail, dmesg-fail, timeout, crash, incomplete - Intent with proposal below - test result value list for igt (kernel testing): pass, warn, fail, dmesg-fail, timeout, crash, incomplete Right or wrong? Or will fail vanish from this list too like Chris said? Or will there be scenario where one can have fail without dmesg?
