Hello MXNet community, *If your PRs aren't targeted towards v1.* branches [v1.x for e.g.] then ignore.*
For a few weeks, we've witnessed timeouts for CI unix-gpu pipelines specifically on PRs targeted towards v1.x branch. This was in connection with the unix-gpu pipeline for v1.x not running on the updated unix-gpu toolchain. Identifying this, I cherry-picked the unix-gpu toolchain update PR from master to v1.x: #18785 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/18785>. Refer original PR #18186 <https://github.com/apache/incubator-mxnet/pull/18186> for details about what's included as part of the unix-gpu toolchain upgrade. The PR #18785 is currently waiting on a resolution by Apache Infra to prevent merging master branch code into v1.x which got introduced as part of enabling branch protection. Ticket: 20616 <https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/INFRA-20616> Once the PR gets merged, it should ease up the timeout issue. Sorry for inconvenience caused by timeouts. Thanks for the continued patience & incredible work contributing to MXNet project.
