[LTP] [PATCH v5 0/4] Support for Patchwork CI

[Petr Vorel]

Hi all,

> Add support for patch-series validation in the patchwork ML.
> We use Github to schedule a trigger every 30 minutes, checking for new
> patche-series in parchwork which has not been tested yet.

> The way we decide if a patch-series has been tested in patchwork, is
> by looking at its status (in particular, if it's "Needs Review / ACK"),
> as well as checking if test report has been uploaded to any of the
> series patches.

> All communication to Patchwrok is done via REST API, using curl and js
> tools.

> First, we create a script called patchwork-ci.sh that provides all the
> commands to read new untested patch-series, set their status and testing
> report. Then, we create a scheduled workflow in Gitlab, checking every
> 30 minutes if there are new untested patch-series. At the end, we
> trigger the main build workflow, used to validate LTP commits in our
> Github mainline. All the times we trigger the build workflow, we also
> provide the patch-series ID, that will be fetched and applied on the
> current branch before running the tests.

Andrea did a great effort. Unfortunately we deal with problem probably caused by
our mailing list because 3rd commit "ci: add ci-patchwork-trigger workflow" did
not arrive to mailing list.

I suppose the branch is visible on Andrea's fork:

https://github.com/acerv/ltp/tree/refs/heads/b4/patchwork_ci

Mail is not in "ending moderator requests" on https://lists.linux.it/,
I guess we need to contact ML administrators, I'll do it and Cc you.

Kind regards,
Petr
