On each series on the patch > list, the results appear in the test category contexts for IOL (community > lab), GitHub, and LoongSon. >=20 > If a reported failure on a series seems suspicious to the patch submitter > or maintainer, then there may be an interest in requesting a retest on the > series for the failing label(s) in order to verify the failure is not > spurious or a false positive. This retest demonstrates to the submitter or > maintainer that the failure can be reliably reproduced. Unfortunately, at > present, the best way to accomplish this is to reach out to lab maintaine= rs > via email or Slack. This is not ideal for developers in need of quick test > results. >=20 > Going forward, CI testing labs will be implementing the option to request > retest for their respective test labels on patchwork via emails sent to t= he > dev mailing list. This feature is ready today for labels reported by the > UNH-IOL Community Lab, and will soon also be an option for the Github Rob= ot > at least. >=20 > In order to request a retest on your patch series, send an email reply to > one of your series=E2=80=99s patch or cover letter emails with email cont= ent of the > format used below: >=20 > Recheck-request: >=20 > The valid delimiter is a comma optionally followed by a space: =E2=80=9C,= =E2=80=9D =E2=80=9C, =E2=80=9C >=20 > Valid examples: >=20 > Recheck-request: iol-compile-amd64-testing, iol-broadcom-Performance, > iol-compile-arm64-testing, >=20 > Recheck-request: iol-compile-amd64-testing,iol-broadcom-Performance, > iol-compile-arm64-testing, >=20 > Recheck-request: iol-compile-amd64-testing, iol-broadcom-Performance, > iol-compile-arm64-testing >=20 > Invalid examples: >=20 > Recheck-request: iol-compile-amd64-testing, iol-broadcom-Performance >=20 > Recheck-request: iol-compile-amd64-testing > iol-broadcom-Performance,iol-compile-arm64-testing, >=20 > Some important notes: >=20 > 1. >=20 > At present, there is only support for retesting the series as it exist= ed > when the lab received it.
