Avocado: more multi-arch tests

[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/6] Avocado: more multi-arch tests

Posted by Philippe Mathieu-Daudé 7 years ago

Hi,

Another neanderthal approach to add multi-arch acceptance tests using Avocado.

I couldn't figure how to use the R2D serial, the kernel boots using the sm501
display correctly, but I'm too console-oriented to write UI tests...

Magnus or Zoltan, any hint on this?

Thanks

Phil.

Since v2 (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-06/msg06370.html):
- use Debian packaged kernels, add link to the sources and a comment
  about how to rebuild these images (Alex)
- use self.arch from Cleber's series
- add mips64el kernel console test
- add sh4 test using the tracing framework

Since v1 (http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2018-04/msg03076.html):
- we can now run other archs (Cleber)

IIRC you have to use the second UART, see:

Ping for review before I send v3?

v3:
- fix patch 4 "Add test_sh4_r2d in BootLinuxConsole"
- drop patch 5? "Add test_sh4_r2d in BootLinuxTracing"
