Hi Wei Tee,
I'm not sure what is causing the issue you're seeing when trying to run
the selftests, but I was able to track down the issue causing the
selftests to fail in normal usage.
Apparently, only systemd-boot sets no "root=" kernel command line
parameter when booting live. Our other bootloaders (grub, syslinux) set
root=/dev/ram0. The selftests use syslinux.
From what I can tell from the kernel docs, this is basically just a
sentinel value to say "mount the initrd as root":
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.11/admin-guide/initrd.html
We already have the procedure correct, and just have to account for
/dev/ram0 as well now.
I'll send a patch for it.
Thanks,
Cal

Hi Richard,
Noted with the changes. I had try to reproduce the same failure log that you
send to me. However, the result is different.
How can I run the oe-selftest to test out the patch on my machine correctly?
Can you verify with me whether the steps below are the correct steps?
Firstly git clone a poky and meta-intel layer, then source a build. I also enable the
oe-selftest configuration on my local.conf and run the command "oe-selftest -r
runqemu.RunqemuTests.test_boot_deploy_hddimg"?
I try to test the latest poky master branch without my "use initramfs-framework by
default" commit, the oe-selftest for those two testcases are failed too)
Here is the failure log that I captured:

Use the initramfs-framework for initialization by default due to the
modularity and expansibility.

I'm afraid I had to revert this change:
http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=fab2219af4a6566124
cf95d1d2648d4729391baf
because it was causing oe-selftest failures as shown here:

eps/Running%20oe-selftest/logs/stdio
Cheers,
Richard
