If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit 48e093164699d121ac5dd6859df8138d865ad528 Author: Ricardo B. Marliere <ricardo@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Mar 15 12:28:08 2024 -0300 ktest: force $buildonly = 1 for 'make_warnings_file' test type [ Upstream commit 07283c1873a4d0eaa0e822536881bfdaea853910 ] The test type "make_warnings_file" should have no mandatory configuration parameters other than the ones required by the "build" test type, because its purpose is to create a file with build warnings that may or may not be used by other subsequent tests. Currently, the only way to use it as a stand-alone test is by setting POWER_CYCLE, CONSOLE, SSH_USER, BUILD_TARGET, TARGET_IMAGE, REBOOT_TYPE and GRUB_MENU.
