Hi guys,
Do you remember the discussion about cgroup testing in autotest vs. LTP? I hope there won't be any doubts about this one as ground_test (+ first 2 subtests) are strictly focused on cgroups features enforced on KVM guest systems. Also more subtests will follow if you approve the test structure (blkio_throttle, memory, cpus...).
Yes, absolutely.
No matter whether we drop or keep the general 'cgroup' test. The 'cgroup_common.py' library can be imported either from 'client/tests/cgroup/' directory or directly from 'client/tests/kvm/tests/' directory.
I don't think we really need to drop the test. It's useful anyway, even
though there are LTP tests that sort of cover ir.
The modifications of 'cgroup_common.py' library is backward compatible with general cgroup test.
See the commits for details.
Now that we moved to github, I'd like to go with the following model of
contribution:
1) You create a user on github if you don't have one
2) Create a public autotest fork
3) Commit the changes to a topic branch appropriately named
4) Make a pull request to autotest:master
5) You still send the patches to the mailing list normally, but mention
the pull request URL on the message.
That's it, we are still trying out things, so if this doesn't work out,
we'll update the process. Is it possible that you do that and rebase
your patches?
Oh, and since patchwork is still out due to DNS outage, could you guys
re-spin your client-server patches using the same process I mentioned?
Thank you!
Lucas
