Why can't you make script callable from any CI? Greetings from the (today's) sunny Espoo! Of course we could keep it outside the kernel tree. However, the point of this contribution is to provide kernel maintainers and developers with an easy way to setup their CI pipeline on a GitLab instance (the main one, FreeDesktop one, or any other). Basically this is like a template or a library, if you wish, which helps you do that. Approved by Linus too. Why GitLab? Because it's one of the best, if not *the* best CI system these days, with lots of flexibility, and it's Open-Source too (well, at least open-core, which is still very capable). And also because a number of maintainers and companies are already using it. Sure, a script could be contributed too, but the value of this contribution is a ready-made integration. And we want to make it easily discoverable, and easily contributed to. BTW, here's the talk we gave at last year's LPC regarding current use of GitLab in the kernel and surrounding community: https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1728/ Nick
