Subject: [PATCH 0/5] fstests: remove old SGI QE scripts
Date: Fri,  7 Mar 2025 08:34:45 +1100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250306213921.3769440-1-david@fromorbit.com> (raw)

Hi folks,

The scripts this patchset removes are historical relics. They
haven't been maintained, in many cases they don't work, and in a
couple fo cases they are reliant on test machines that SGI
decomissioned almost two decades ago.

There is no point in trying to maintain these scripts, but they
still create dependencies on common fstests code that is now getting
in the way of making changes to fstests infrastructure.

Hence we should simply remove them and get rid of all the technical
debt they contain with them.

-Dave.
