Hi,

I'm happy to to announce that from today we have a mail bot, that will check
submitted patches for CRIU. It is called Malipat which stands for 
MAiling LIst PAtch Tester.
It is able to test first-level(no In-Reply-To) standalone patches as 
well as patch sets, and
will send a reply message with test results to each patch. Test consists 
of 4 steps:

[NON-FATAL] Coding style check    -- Check with checkpatch.pl
[FATAL]          Apply patch check    -- Check with "git apply"
[FATAL]          Build patch check     -- Check with "make"
[FATAL]          Test patch check       -- Check with zdtm

SUCCESS/FAIL  -- Overall result()
+ attached tar with logs

[NON-FATAL] - doesn't affect overall result.

It wakes up every 10 minutes to pull email, so keep in mind that it will 
reply to your
patch in 10-30 minutes, depending on all the delays and overall load. 
Let me know
if it is not replying to your patch or patch set in a few hours.

Malipat is definitely buggy and to be improved, but using it is the best 
way to discover
bugs and see what could be improved.

If you notice any bugs or have any suggestions, please feel free to 
contact me.

Sorry for inconvenience.

Thanks,
Ruslan
