CI: Execute RISC-V Rust tests in a dedicated job
Stack:
- !11821 (merged) (Execute Etherlink kernel tests in their own CI job)
- !12178 (merged) (preliminary work for this MR)
- You are here
What
The test_kernels
job has become unbearably slow, mostly because it executes sequentially tests that are now mostly unrelated. To speed-up things, we propose to split the test_kernels
job into several ones, which can run in parallel. The cumulative time does not appear to be significantly higher, and it removes test_kernels
from the critical path of the CI time.
Why
I want a fast CI.
How
By editing some yaml files.
Manually testing the MR
We need to check I haven’t forgotten something in the process.
