I was planning on holding off on accepting more tests/changes until KUnit is in torvalds/master. As much as I would like to go around promoting it, I don't really want to promote too much complexity in a non-upstream branch before getting it upstream because I don't want to risk adding something that might cause it to get rejected again. To be clear, I can understand from your perspective why getting more tests/usage before accepting it is a good thing. The more people that play around with it, the more likely that someone will find an issue with it, and more likely that what is accepted into torvalds/master is of high quality. However, if I encourage arbitrary tests/improvements into my KUnit branch, it further diverges away from torvalds/master, and is more likely that there will be a merge conflict or issue that is not related to the core KUnit changes that will cause the whole thing to be rejected again in v5.5. I don't know. I guess we could maybe address that situation by splitting up the pull request into features and tests when we go to send it in, but that seems to invite a lot of unnecessary complexity. I actually already had some other tests/changes ready to send for review, but was holding off until the initial set of patches mad it in. Looking forward to hearing other people's thoughts. _______________________________________________ Linux-nvdimm mailing list -- linux-nvdimm@lists.01.org To unsubscribe send an email to linux-nvdimm-leave@lists.01.org
