Unknown, so future, gen are marked as -1 which we want to treat as -1u so that always pass >= gen checks.Do we really want to enable the tests when platform is not fully enabled in IGT?What does "fully enabled" mean? If the test is checking for just "gen > x", the test should work already. If the test is also checking for "gen < y" then we get a spurious failure, but either way CI is going to tell you that something is not passing. Without this it will be a skip, along with skipping in the case that should just work already without actual test changes.
And for a very large fraction of tests, the behaviour of next gen follows current gen. Those that do not are very interesting, and will be a much smaller number than the volume of skips we have to process. -Chris _______________________________________________ igt-dev mailing list igt-dev@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/igt-dev
