[Gluster-Maintainers] Master branch lock down status

[Shyam Ranganathan]

Deserves a new beginning, threads on the other mail have gone deep enough.

NOTE: (5) below needs your attention, rest is just process and data on
how to find failures.

1) We are running the tests using the patch [2].

2) Run details are extracted into a separate sheet in [3] named "Run
Failures" use a search to find a failing test and the corresponding run
that it failed in.

3) Patches that are fixing issues can be found here [1], if you think
you have a patch out there, that is not in this list, shout out.

4) If you own up a test case failure, update the spreadsheet [3] with
your name against the test, and also update other details as needed (as
comments, as edit rights to the sheet are restricted).

5) Current test failures
We still have the following tests failing and some without any RCA or
attention, (If something is incorrect, write back).

./tests/bugs/replicate/bug-1290965-detect-bitrotten-objects.t (needs
attention)
./tests/00-geo-rep/georep-basic-dr-tarssh.t (Kotresh)
./tests/bugs/glusterd/add-brick-and-validate-replicated-volume-options.t
(Atin)
./tests/bugs/ec/bug-1236065.t (Ashish)
./tests/00-geo-rep/georep-basic-dr-rsync.t (Kotresh)
./tests/basic/ec/ec-1468261.t (needs attention)
./tests/basic/afr/add-brick-self-heal.t (needs attention)
./tests/basic/afr/granular-esh/replace-brick.t (needs attention)
./tests/bugs/core/multiplex-limit-issue-151.t (needs attention)
./tests/bugs/glusterd/validating-server-quorum.t (Atin)
./tests/bugs/replicate/bug-1363721.t (Ravi)

Here are some newer failures, but mostly one-off failures except cores
in ec-5-2.t. All of the following need attention as these are new.

./tests/00-geo-rep/00-georep-verify-setup.t
./tests/basic/afr/gfid-mismatch-resolution-with-fav-child-policy.t
./tests/basic/stats-dump.t
./tests/bugs/bug-1110262.t
./tests/bugs/glusterd/mgmt-handshake-and-volume-sync-post-glusterd-restart.t
./tests/basic/ec/ec-data-heal.t
./tests/bugs/replicate/bug-1448804-check-quorum-type-values.t
./tests/bugs/snapshot/bug-1482023-snpashot-issue-with-other-processes-accessing-mounted-path.t
./tests/basic/ec/ec-5-2.t

6) Tests that are addressed or are not occurring anymore are,

./tests/bugs/glusterd/rebalance-operations-in-single-node.t
./tests/bugs/index/bug-1559004-EMLINK-handling.t
