From Linaroâs validation farm we have the following test results for this 4.9.54-rc1. TI's 32 bit arm board the X15 is a new addition. Also this time around more of LTP is being run. There is triage to do and youâll notice that Iâm differentiating between âknown failuresâ and âfailuresâ in the data below. The later obviously will get looked at so we can graduate failures to known failures/fixes and improve finding regressions. (Anyone want to help?) In summary I wouldnât hold up 4.9.54 based on the failures in the new data below. Given itâs a Sat, the Mrs has plans, Iâve no time to do further digging until later.
