1689298 - macOS DevEdition tasks should not run on mozilla-release

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Firefox Build System :: Task Configuration, defect)

Description

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

macOS has DevEdition tasks (builds + wdspec + wpt crashtest), see this push. This started with Firefox 84 when macOS switched to WebRender in combination with rules to run the tasks .*-qr/.*: ['release']. It needs treatment similar to bug 1677084.

Starting with Firefox 84 when macOS switched to run its tests with WebRender
(bug 1673071), the wdspec and wpt crashtests also ran in the DevEdition
configuration because there were rules ".-qr/.: ['release']".

The patch landed in nightly and beta is affected.
:aryx, is this bug important enough to require an uplift?
If not please set status_beta to wontfix.
