[PULL 13/13] tests/avocado: remove skips from replay_kernel
Posted by Alex Bennée 10 months, 3 weeks ago
With the latest fixes for #2010 and #2013 these tests look pretty
stable now. Of course the only way to be really sure is to run it in
the CI infrastructure and see what breaks.

The replay tests seem still to be very flaky, I'm now getting:

  https://gitlab.com/thuth/qemu/-/jobs/5910241580#L227
  https://gitlab.com/thuth/qemu/-/jobs/5910241593#L396

I'd suggest to revert this patch to disable them in the CI again.

I did but on reconsideration I'm only partially reverting for the x86_64
bits as everything else looks stable (unless you have more examples).

I've raised a new bug to cover it:

Ok I'll move it back to flaky. I thought I'd eliminated the problem as I
can do 100 runs without failure locally. Sadly there doesn't seem to be
anything obvious in the logs as to whats going on.
