Add capability to upload any patch ( or series of patch ) #7

Closed VictorRodriguez closed 9 years ago

VictorRodriguez commented 9 years ago

Ok here is the heart of the tool. Right now the tool is capable of run the LTP and Power Top ( more tools being added on the way ) but the real core of this tool will be .. Any one should be able to upload their patches to test them without worry about the test suite ( LTP/Power Top / etc ) and the server/ client side ( we will create the infrastructure to support clients , but thats another feature , not for this milestone ) . The results should presnet the results after and before the patch. The patch will be compiled against the latest stable kernel ( yes thats our golden rule :) )

What do you think ?

It sounds amazing, seems like we are closing to the goal, but we are just starting. I have some questions about this issue. We will install the kernel 3.19(latest release) on the server or our machines, is it correct? What do you mean with series of patch? I wonder if these series will be sent in the same request and by the same client. Are we going to apply each patch on the server and throw the results on the page?

Thank you!

Once the user have tested his patch, the server have to revert the changes and go back to the clean kernel? I will soon upload the results of this issue. Greetings.

[Answer] Correct What do you mean with series of patch? [Answer] http://rypress.com/tutorials/git/patch-workflows [Answer] you can have 1 or many .patch files ( all in order 001-100 ) I wonder if these series will be sent in the same request and by the same client. [Answer] Will be sent to the server ( like upload a picture on facebook ) Are we going to apply each patch on the server and throw the results on the page? [Answer] Thats the big idea :)
