[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.11 v3 00/16] travis: speedup to reduce failures

["Philippe Mathieu-Daudé" <f4bug@amsat.org>]

These patches try to improve our Travis CI usage (few failures the last days):
- lower false negative rate (mostly network issues),
- improved code coverage,
- speedup failure detection.

dropped since v2 (will follow as a separate series)
- multicore parallelism use
- cache use

Patch 1 is expected to enter /master as of yesterday.
Travis warned few months ago:
  "On Wednesday, June 21st 2017, we are going to update all our Ubuntu Trusty
  14.04 images."

Patches 4-6 try to avoid aborting a job on network failure.

Patches 7-9 intend to speedup jobs.

Patch 10 gives hint when ./configure fails, patch 12 silent build warnings.

RFC patch 13 uses upgraded GCC v5 -> v6.
RFC patch 14 don't fails the build if the slow gprof/gcov job fail.

Patches 15, 16 add more OSX VMs/toolchains (older, newer, bleeding edge).

Regards,

Phil.
