1142088 - Remove jobs from the runner blacklist (tracking task)

Status: RESOLVED WONTFIX

(Release Engineering :: General, defect)

Description

[Morgan Phillips [:mrrrgn]]

Runner tries to avoid rebooting machines after a job, however, for certain job types this still causes problems. The solution to this was to add a blacklist, so that certain job types still trigger reboots:

 45 def get_buildname_blacklist():
 46     '''
 47     A list of build name expressions which will coerce a halt, names are
 48     retrieved from buildapi via get_recent_builds().
 49     '''
 50     # reboot after android, b2g emulator, reftest, or mochitest jobs
 51     return ['.*android.*', '.*emulator.*', '.*mochi.*', '.*reftest.*']

Right now, we seem to reboot after 3/5 jobs on average. To decrease this number, each entry in this blacklist should be tackled, one by one, so that they can be removed form the blacklist.
