kernel quest reads bugzilla's REST API and picks one bug through a seeded
xorshift, so a pick is reproducible in a test and varied in a person's hands.
kernel test builds under spawn_blocking and boots under qemu with the serial
console streamed line by line, and it reports what qemu did instead of
flattening a failed boot into a success.
patch create writes a whole series when --range is given. git format-patch
does the naming and the numbering because that is already its job, the cover
letter comes from --cover-letter, and a series.toml beside the patches records
the range with both ends as hashes, the revision, the files and the blurb.
patch submit takes a directory or several files and sends them in one
git send-email invocation, and patch update re-rolls a directory through
--reroll-count, deleting the superseded revision only once the new one is
complete.
doctor runs its checks in the order a first run hits them, prints one line and
a fix hint for each, and names the first hard failure in the summary. A missing
qemu or a missing mail route warns and keeps exit 0, because --dry-run is where
the loop actually stops on a machine without an SMTP route.
~/.config/spectral/config.toml holds the tree path, the patch directory,
always-CC addresses and an identity, with the environment winning over the file
and the file over the built-in default. spectral init verifies or clones a tree
and writes it once: a second run with the same tree says so and writes nothing,
and a run that would change an existing answer is refused until --force.
tests/ grew a fixture for each of those. The harness controls PATH and git's
configuration, and its PATH can hold a git that answers send-email either way,
so a host without that support still passes rather than deciding the result.
Two review lanes ran over this work and this commit carries their fixes. A
re-roll regenerated base..HEAD, so a commit that landed after create would have
silently joined the set and been mailed: the range is recorded now and a
re-roll regenerates exactly it. A patch file that was already gone made update
fail forever while the sidecar described a revision that was not on disk: a
missing file is the state the re-roll wanted. An empty blurb aborted after the
files were written: it is checked before anything is generated. A tree that is
not a git repository was reported as a missing revision. init cloned before it
refused. The bugzilla request had no timeout, a signal-ended child printed the
bare word "signal", CommandSpawn dropped the io reason, and the printed
send-email line quoted only arguments with spaces, so --in-reply-to <id@host>
pasted as a redirection.
Checked with cargo fmt --all -- --check, cargo clippy --all-targets --locked --
-D warnings, cargo test --locked (96 passed, 4 ignored) and cargo doc --no-deps.
The four ignored tests want the host's own checkpatch, get_maintainer and
bugzilla, and all four pass when asked for.
Rewrite the README and the source comments in a plainer register.
The README had picked up the usual generated-prose tics: seventeen em
dashes, inline bold headers over every work item, signposting lines like
'the two scripts are called out because it matters', and a two-word
'Twenty of them.' dropped in for emphasis. Replaced with commas, real
section headings, and sentences that carry their own subject.
Also fixes the two rustdoc warnings cargo doc was emitting: <NAME> and
<N> in the subcommand doc comments were being parsed as unclosed HTML
tags. cargo doc is clean now.
Add the spectral command tree -- kernel quest/test and patch
check/format/commit/create/submit/update -- with every verb wired through
main to a todo!() body, plus the pieces they will share:
- config: resolve the kernel tree from $SPECTRAL_KERNEL, falling back to
~/.spectral/linux, patches under ~/.spectral/patches, and confirm a tree
really is one before anything uses it
- git: a thin wrapper over the git binary, currently only run
- error: one thiserror enum, converted once in main
- patch/checkpatch and patch/maintainers: seams around the tree's own
scripts/checkpatch.pl and scripts/get_maintainer.pl, so spectral never
carries a stale copy of the kernel's rules
20 functions are todo!(); the #[allow(dead_code)] sites mark the items
that are unreachable only until their caller is written. fmt, clippy -D
warnings, and test are all clean.
