Description Florian Weimer 2016-09-01 11:28:53 UTC
There is some upstream work towards reducing build and testing time.

So far, only this commit has landed:

commit 7e625f7e85b4e88f10dbde35a0641742af581806
Author: Florian Weimer <fweimer>
Date:   Fri Aug 26 19:27:16 2016 +0200

    nptl: Avoid expected SIGALRM in most tests [BZ #20432]

Backporting this commit and future ones will reduce turn-around time and thus simplify development.

test-skeleton-log.patch

Old patch to add time logging to test-skeleton.c.  I have not verified that it still works.
