Let's check CPU time instead. It likely won't help as we still racing with wallclock overall job timeout (which sometimes triggers failure too, I guess it depends on stars alignment and load on the host). Anyways, I don't have know-how when it comes to meson, to do more than this patch. with this patch 'cross-i686-tci' job passes for me, but we have msys2-64bit failing atm due timeouts as well (seems to be limited to sparc tests) > > > --- > > tests/qtest/meson.build | 2 +- > > 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) > > > > diff --git a/tests/qtest/meson.build b/tests/qtest/meson.build > > index 6508bfb1a2..ff9200f882 100644 > > --- a/tests/qtest/meson.build > > +++ b/tests/qtest/meson.build > > @@ -1,6 +1,6 @@ > > slow_qtests = { > > 'aspeed_smc-test': 360, > > - 'bios-tables-test' : 610, > > + 'bios-tables-test' : 910, > > 'cdrom-test' : 610, > > 'device-introspect-test' : 720, > > 'migration-test' : 480, > > -- > > 2.43.0 >
