I wonder if a kselftest written with Python can depend on GStreamer? I.e. check and skip on failure.
I'm almost done converting the demo shown in my screencast from bash and fmpeg to python and gstreamer [1]. There has been bunch of blockers, like for example getting Python bindings compile in my BuildRoot environment (stable version bump helped).
One final peace that I was missing was how to pass a file descriptor to GStreamer pipeline but here it is:
https://gstreamer.freedesktop.org/documentation/coreelements/fdsrc.html
So... 1.5 weeks of scratching my head but this all work was absolutely required before making the breaking API change to the driver code (i.e. return file descriptor to an anoymous inode in the ioctl instead of writing to /dev/video0).
Now I need only a small tweak to the test program when I test that kernel change. FINALLY ready to go back to the fun i.e. kernel hacking ;-)

When writing a system test for a media (aka V4L2) driver, Python and associated GStreamer bindings seem to be overall the sweet spot.
It has these perks:
- Packaged (unlike ffmpeg bindings).
- Can be injected during the post build.
- Has videotestsrc ;-)

This is crucial if Arch Linux wants to be also a commercial option. Sloppy license management keeps it in the hobbyist niche.

Great start for a year. I have a tech job. I've started to work on two new kernel features after some more quiet period. Could be worse.

"leading programming language", "the most popular programming language" etc. Why it is a thing to rank this? I get gathering statistics but not it being an up-front thing.
I have not yet had a job where I would need such list for accomplishing anything :-)
Company/organization-wide decision making might need to look at such statistics for making long-term choices perhaps. It's pretty useless information overall...
