1657137 - job backfills should not extend default taskgroup created for push

Status: NEW

(Tree Management :: Treeherder, defect)

Description

[Sebastian Hengst [:aryx] (needinfo me if it's about an intermittent or backout)]

See bug 1638930 comment 40 to 42.

select * from taskclusteretl.derived_task_summary where project = "autoland" and date >= "2020-08-02" and date < "2020-08-03" and taskGroupId = "BHcnWW1cRo-C7H0V6Hwzvw" order by logStart

The last two tasks in that taskGroup ran a lot later inflating the total run time (the backfill tasks).

Did backfills start to be part of the default taskgraph at the end of June?

I believe the reason to do so was to fix bug 1585757.

Is this causing any problems?

Comment 2

This is the same behavior that retriggers have, and backfills were (I think) actually included in the graph of the task they were backfilled from before.

Should every action task created an own graph?
