Hi kernel people,

That was somewhat of a surprise.  It has found a few things here and
there, mostly in building for configurations or architectures that
Fedora does not support.  Sometimes this causes maintainers to be
mailed about build failures somewhat unexpectedly.  The most recent
case as the crash driver on openrisc.

The 0-Day maintainer said they can disable it, but I wanted to run it
past the team first.  I can see value in doing it, even if it isn't
directly applicable to Fedora itself at the moment.  Thoughts?

I'm for this if we can limit it to only arches Fedora supports. Even if
Fedora doesn't officially support some of the configurations right now
it could in the future and compiling is a pretty low bar.

Thanks,
Laura

Running only on specific ARCH would be handy.  If that can be maintained.

Follow up: Fengguang Wu points out that it can be enabled only for
specific ARCH as well.  So that's a possibility.

fedora.git upstream 0-Day build testing

Hi kernel people,

Recently the upstream 0-Day build testing project started building the
exploded kernel git tree for Fedora on kernel.org:

https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/jwboyer/fedora.git/

That was somewhat of a surprise.  It has found a few things here and
there, mostly in building for configurations or architectures that
Fedora does not support.  Sometimes this causes maintainers to be
mailed about build failures somewhat unexpectedly.  The most recent
case as the crash driver on openrisc.

The 0-Day maintainer said they can disable it, but I wanted to run it
past the team first.  I can see value in doing it, even if it isn't
directly applicable to Fedora itself at the moment.  Thoughts?
