Add retry:exit_codes syntax for CI config
What does this MR do and why?
retry:exit_codes
syntax to the CI Config.
The exit code of a job is already used by allowed_failures:exit_codes
. The goal is to use the exit code to retry a job.
Example of usage:
- Users might want to retry a job when OOM killed by kubernetes
exit 137
.
See the issue #262674 (closed) for more use cases.
New syntax
job:
script: echo 'hello job script'
retry:
max: 2
exit_codes:
- 137
- 255
OR.
job:
script: echo 'hello job script'
retry:
max: 2
exit_codes: 137
Same behaviours as allowed_failures:exit_codes
