Hello Fengguang,
I hope this email finds you well. Since our call last week, we’ve been working internally trying to best identify issues/questions we need to draft up the scope of work for our collaboration with Compass CI and we have the following points we wish to discuss with you further.
After some internal discussions, we think and support your proposal of having Compass CI dispatch jobs to LAVA via the dispatcher. However, we did have a few questions we need your help in answering:
Q1. Do you expect to use LKFT’s lab?
Q2. Do you want to add your embedded boards to your dispatcher in your own lab?
Q3. We assume you want to test the OpenEuler kernel. Do you want to use our OpenEmbedded or OpenEuler rootFS?
Q4. Do you want to run the same test we run in LKFT?
Q5. Do you want to run LKP tests
Q6. IF you wish to run Linaro test definitions, the data will be stored in SQUAD. For LKP, we expect the tests themselves to send the test results to Compass CI directly.
We spent a lot of time discussing how to best collaborate with Compass CI to the benefit of Linaro's members and we believe bolstering benchmark testing is a key value your team can help us deliver. The focus is on benchmark test extraction, processing and comparison. The functionality we seek is in LKP so your team’s help in extracting and genericising such tooling so we can leverage it in LKFT and other test frameworks.
We can discuss the above points over email or setup a call if you like.
Thanks, Anmar
