[swift-corelibs-dev] [swift-dev] [Swift CI] Build Failure: 0. OSS - Swift libdispatch Incremental RA - Ubuntu 14.04 (master) #183

I've never seen this test fail before.   We haven't changed the kqueue git
submodule version since July 20.  It looks like the next 20 runs of this CI
build didn't hit this test failure either.

I took a quick scan of the kqueue tests and like some of the other
libdispatch test cases, the kqueue test is not bulletproof if the system on
which it is run is under very unusual load.  For example, there are tests
of timer events and if the expected timers are more than a second late, the
testcase is marked as a failure.  Fairly reasonable for a testcase run on a
development machine before committing code.   Not great for running
hundreds of times in a less controlled environment.  We will get occasional
spurious failures.

As part of getting the dispatch tests running in the CI environment, we've
turned off about 20% of the test cases because they were having
non-reproducible occasional failures on the CI machines.  This probably
ties back to the discussion a few days ago on this list about the lldb
tests.  What's the best way for us to structure testcases that test
end-to-end properties or timeliness expectations for highly concurrent code
that won't cause unacceptable levels of spurious failures in the CI
environment?

looks like a libkqueue test failed

dave / hubertus may have seen this before ?

      Not it. Dispatch folks, any idea what's up?
