Unfortunately, this bug report suffers from multiple cut&paste or
template error. The ci link points to the mercurial page for amd64, the
text alternates between s390s, armhf, arm64 and amd64.

I tried the (dead simple) autopkgtest on the s390s and arm64 porterboxes
and it succeeded in a second's time. I have sharpened the expression
that counts the CPUs in lscpu's output and hope this will fix the issue.

I also fixed a syntax error in the test, but that should cause the test
to error out and not hang.

Can you find out in which line the autopkgtest stalls?

Greetings
Marc
