Just for reference, in mainline, we currently have
total: 133 pass: 127 fail: 6
plus four (!) qemu tests failing (arm, mips, mips64, and ppc),
meaning there will be three more dropped configurations (all arm
as far as I can see), and there is already a bunch of failures.
This is with v3.16-9794-g8065be8. next-20140808 build result is
total: 133 pass: 121 fail: 12
with the same failed qemu tests, so it will only get worse :-(.
Some improved quality assurance may be helpful going forward,
especially since many of the failures seem to be due to lack of
(build) testing and could easily have been avoided. Something
to discuss in Chicago, maybe.
I wonder if it is just due to the merge not being finished yet? The
0-day built-bot should have caught any major build issues before now
with the individual trees, so there shouldn't be any reason you should
be seeing failures :(
There are two arm build failures in Linus' tree which are not seen
in -next. Those are either merge problems, or maybe there is some
other series of arm patches coming. Either case, the arm folks are
pretty good at tracking failures, so I assume those will be fixed
soon (especially since multi_v7_defconfig is one of the failing
builds). The other build failures are all seen in -next as well,
so they _should_ be known.
For the qemu failures, they are all the same in -next and in the
tip of Linus' tree, so I guess no one tested the configurations
I use for qemu tests. I only recently added -next to the list of
branches to test, so I only noticed the failures after they showed up
in Linus' tree.
