Announcing: Linux Kernel Tinderbox
We are pleased to announce Tinderbox-based tool which Linux kernel developers can leverage to flag defects and regressions in the Linux kernel and to relate these defects and regressions to recent change sets for the kernel. The tool is under continuing development and it allows for distributed testing of the kernel using multiple hardware platforms and software configurations.
This tool is derived from the Mozilla Tinderbox infrastructure, with much help from the kind people at Async (http://www.async.com.br/) The Linux Kernel Tinderbox is a client-server system: The clients do a continuous cycle of checking out, compiling and testing the latest code integrated into the source repository. The server provides output as a set of web pages, showing current changes to the kernel tree and state of the client machines. Client status is displayed as a set of time-ordered coloured boxes arranged into columns, one per client.
A prototype for the Linux Kernel Tinderbox is viewable at:
http://tinderbox.osdl.org/showbuilds.pl?tree=linux2.5-bk
Project documentation is located at:
http://www.osdl.org/cgi-bin/osdl_development_wiki.pl?Linux_Kernel_Tinderbox
This project will support any architecture capable of running Linux. It is our intent to encourage owners of these various hardware platforms to contribute Tinderbox clients.
The basic kernel tinderbox client is at: http://developer.osdl.org/cliffw/kernel_tinderclient.tar.gz
Support is via a mailing list: Kernel-tinderbox@lists.osdl.org http://lists.osdl.org/mailman/listinfo/kernel-tinderbox
Let us know if you can provide a non-Intel client machine
