Bug ID: 111637
Summary: Document configuration shadowing and clean up handling
that in igt_core
Product: DRI
Version: unspecified
Hardware: Other
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: not set
Component: IGT
Assignee: dri-devel@lists.freedesktop.org
Reporter: arkadiusz.hi...@intel.com
The current agreed order of importance is as follows:
.igtrc < ENV < --switch
or to put it in words
.igtrc option is less important than ENV
.igtrc and ENV are both less important than --switch
Real world example:
https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/63553/
device for IGT execution can be specified as Common::Device in .igtrc,
IGT_DEVICE env variable or --device switch on command line.
The idea is that .igtrc is the default set on the machine that can be
overwritten for the whole session with env or just for a single test with
--device.
This needs to be documented and the whey we handle this in igt_core.c could use
some streamlining.
