Barak Korren commented on OVIRT-2633:
-------------------------------------
Not needed - this request is based on an incorrect assumption that the change queue is
testing changes one-by-one serially.
In the case mentioned above, if we suppose we already reported P1 as failed, and P10 has
been merged, and lets realistically assume it was not merged before the next CQ test
started, so what will happen is that P2-P9 will be tested together and fail, and from then
it will take Log(2)(8) = 3 cycles to detect and throw away P2. If P10 is merged in the
meantime - the next test will test P3-P10 and succeed, passing all changes assuming there
are no further regressions.

Key: OVIRT-2633
URL: https://ovirt-jira.atlassian.net/browse/OVIRT-2633
Project: oVirt - virtualization made easy
Issue Type: New Feature
Reporter: Martin Perina
Assignee: infra
Let's have a patch P1, which created an issue and failed verification in change
queue. Until a fix is prepared and merged as P10, there were merged other patches P2 - P9.
Because P10 is merged as last, it contains all previous changes. And because we already
know that P2 - P9 will fail, there is no reason to verify those changes and there should
be a way how to remove them from the change queue, so P10 can be verified as soon as
possible. Otherwise we are wasting valuable recources.
