[PATCH 0/3] tests/functional: improve handling flaky downloads
Posted by Daniel P. Berrangé 1 month ago
This fixes the functional-system-debian job with the currently
awol archive.openwrt.org server.

  https://gitlab.com/berrange/qemu/-/jobs/11173491503

We can see teh download fail & retry, and then gracefully
skip pre-cache:

And then later the test itself is skipped:

55/67 qemu:func-thorough+func-arm-thorough+thorough / func-arm-realview            SKIP              0.11s   0 subtests passed
