Subject: Re: [LTP] [PATCH 00/36] Remove UCLINUX from LTP
Date: Mon, 8 Jan 2024 09:34:35 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <6fd9dcfa-b412-4573-a2c7-e4ded89bb225@suse.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <5a1f1ff3-8a61-67cf-59a9-ce498738d912@landley.net>
Hi!
My 2 cents. I'm working on refactoring growfiles test which uses UCLINUX
flag.
During its development I had occasion to check UCLINUX support and
(indeed) it seems pretty
broken for LTP, because nobody is maintaining it for a while and such
tests use old API that will
be replaced in any case sooner or later. I agree with other people about
removing it, unless there's
a valid reason to keep it.
Just in case we want to keep it, someone should take care about UCLINUX
support, testing LTP releases for it as well, but it doesn't seem like
something we can do inside the LTP devs team due to the lack of resources.
Regards,
Andrea
