Re: [PATCH 1/2] tests/functional: Mark the MIPS replay tests as flaky

[Thomas Huth]

On 31/10/2025 10.41, Philippe Mathieu-Daudé wrote:
MIPS test_replay.py often times out (likely hang) under GitLab CI:
   2/21 qemu:func-thorough+func-mips64el-thorough+thorough / 
func-mips64el-replay   TIMEOUT   180.12s   killed by signal 15 SIGTERM

The console.log file is empty, and recording.logs only shows:

   qemu-system-mips64el: terminating on signal 15 from pid 344

Since this is a long term issue affecting our CI, disable the tests.

Thanks, this also bugs me since a while already (not enough to send a patch 
yet, so I'm glad you did it now)!
