[webkit-dev] Subpixel layout - requesting help for big rebaseline

2012-08-22 Thread Dominik Röttsches
Hi Chromium folks, Levi and Emil did a great job in implementing SubPixel Layout. I was looking into enabling it on WebKit EFL. Unfortunately, the initial rebaseline for EFL would be huge. That's why I hesitated to enable it right away. Instead I started looking into what the reasons are. I

Perhaps one option of doing such a huge rebaseline might be the following: 1. Get the bots for the affected port into a green state. 2. Add temporary expectations for every LayoutTests/ subdirectory and perhaps for subdirectories of LayoutTests/fast, LayoutTests/svg and LayoutTests/editing as

Hi, As another alternative, could we gather all the Chromium bot admins and ask them to temporarily take the bot offline in non-peak hours, create rebaselines per bot with the patch applied, collect those as binary-compatible diffs in one place, and manually land those collected baselines,

IIRC, the chromium bots no longer exit early due to a large number of failures (right Dirk?), only due to a large number of crashes/timeouts. So, it should be possible to commit this, wait for the bots to cycle, do all the rebaselines at once and commit that. The only delay is that we'd have to

The Chromium canaries now exit after 5000 failures or 1000 crashes/timeouts. Ideally we'd hold off on this change until we can get some sort of a fix or workaround to https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=94665 though (and I'm working on this today), or life might be annoyingly painful for us.
