Hello, everyone
I'm glad to announce the fresh Patchew server deployment:
http://qemu.patchew.org/
The mission of this project is to help identify obvious defects (coding style,
compiling, etc.) of posted patches.
Follow the green "passed" or red "failed" button in the page and you'll see the
testing log. You can also see which series have got reviews or comments.
Q: How will this impact patch submission and merging process?
Nothing is affected (at least for now), use this as an auxiliary.
Q: What exactly are tested for each patch?
* scripts/checkpatch.pl
* git am (on top of qemu.git)
* ./configure --target-list=x86_64-softmmu
* make
* make check
Q: No different architectures, compilers or targets?
Not yet. A simple script does the test in a docker instance. A bigger
coverage is possible though, by adding steps to the script:

Q: Where is the said email notification?
The email notification feature is ready. In a few days I will enable
automatic replying to the list, once the web interface and testing are both
running smoothly and up to speed. Currently the only recipient is Fam :)
Q: Where is the source code?
https://github.com/famz/patchew
(Pull requests very welcome!)
Enjoy, and feel free to make comments!
Thank you!
