[PATCH v2 0/6] python/machine: use socketpair() for console socket
Posted by John Snow 9 months, 3 weeks ago
Like we did for the QMP socket, use socketpair() for the console socket
so that hopefully there isn't a race condition during early boot where
data might get dropped on the floor.

May or may not help with various race conditions where early console
output is not showing up in the logs and/or potentially being missed by
wait_for_console_pattern.

V2:
  - Fixed some Socket ownership/garbage collection problems
  - Fixed callers of now-dropped VM arguments/properties
  - added a dedicated sock_fd arg to ConsoleSocket()
  - now using socketpair() for qtest console, too.
  - dropped sock_dir arg from *all* machine.py classes
  - Tested quite a bit more thoroughly ...

CI: https://gitlab.com/jsnow/qemu/-/pipelines/945067498

John Snow (6):
  python/machine: move socket setup out of _base_args property
  python/machine: close sock_pair in cleanup path
  python/console_socket: accept existing FD in initializer
  python/machine: use socketpair() for console connections
  python/machine: use socketpair() for qtest connection
  python/machine: remove unused sock_dir argument

This seems to improve the test I was having trouble with on s390
(machine_aarch64_sbsaref.py:Aarch64SbsarefMachine.test_sbsaref_edk2_firmware)

However it still fails sometimes, apparently we get the first line
of output from the guest but lose a couple of subsequent lines.
Here's a failing log:

Compared to the output logs for a passing run, you can see that
although we captured the first line of output from the guest
("Booting Trusted Firmware") we missed lines 2 and 3 (the
BL1 version line and the BL1 Built: line).
