small progress on the kernel testing side project: I did setup LAVA instance in addition to Jenkins and made it publicly available.

it took few weeks due to issues with hardware :(

this is home server so can't provide excellent stability and uptime but here it is:

Fun part of building a home server with a domain name is the public IP can change. I wrote a script updating DNS A record periodically because of this. This is not a perfect solution though; DNS propagation time takes some time. But it should be sufficient for my service.

@vbabka btw how do you think about maintaining a slab/experimental branch so that it can be tested first even before being reviewed and went to slab/for-next?

@hyeyoo Oh, okay. Providers could still implement the web API call as a RFC2136 dynamic update in the backend, but I guess they don't bother.

Here it is!

This is the first kernel repository that adopts "merge first and then drop if it's broken" policy ;)

@vbabka tbh I'm not sure, but at least git repos that are regularly merged to linux-next shouldn't use that policy ;)

Anyway the policy seems to work quite well!
