The current migration-tests are almost entirely focused on catching bugs on the migration code itself, not on the device migration infrastructure (vmstate). That means we miss catching some low hanging fruits that would show up immediately if only we had the device in question present in the VM.
Add a list of devices to include by default in the migration-tests, starting with one that recently had issues, virtio-gpu. Also add an environment variable QTEST_DEVICE_OPTS to allow test users to experiment with different devices or device options. Do not run every migration test with the devices because that would increase the complexity of the command lines and, as mentioned, the migration-tests are mostly used to test the core migration code, not the device migration. Add a special value QTEST_DEVICE_OPTS=all that enables testing with devices. Notes on usage: For this new testing mode, it's not useful to run all the migration tests, a single test would probably suffice to catch any issues, so provide the -p option to migration-test and the test of your choice. Like with the cross-version compatibility tests in CI and the recently introduced vmstate-static-checker test, to be of any use, a test with devices needs to be run against a different QEMU version, like so: $ cd build $ QTEST_DEVICE_OPTS=all \ QTEST_QEMU_BINARY=./qemu-system-x86_64 \ QTEST_QEMU_BINARY_DST=../build-previous/qemu-system-x86_64 \ ./tests/qtest/migration-test -p /x86_64/migration/precopy/tcp/plain $ cd build $ QTEST_DEVICE_OPTS='-device virtio-net' \ QTEST_QEMU_BINARY=./qemu-system-x86_64 \ QTEST_QEMU_BINARY_DST=../build-previous/qemu-system-x86_64 \ ./tests/qtest/migration-test -p /x86_64/migration/precopy/tcp/plain Signed-off-by: Fabiano Rosas <faro...@suse.de> --- tests/qtest/migration-test.c | 19 +++++++++++++++++-- 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-) diff --git a/tests/qtest/migration-test.c b/tests/qtest/migration-test.c index 2253e0fc5b..35bb224d18 100644 --- a/tests/qtest/migration-test.c +++ b/tests/qtest/migration-test.c @@ -71,6 +71,13 @@ static QTestMigrationState dst_state; #define QEMU_ENV_SRC "QTEST_QEMU_BINARY_SRC" #define QEMU_ENV_DST "QTEST_QEMU_BINARY_DST" +/* + * The tests using DEFAULT_DEVICES need a special invocation and + * cannot be reached from make check, so don't bother with the + * --without-default-devices build. + */ +#define DEFAULT_DEVICES "-device virtio-gpu" + #if defined(__linux__) #include <sys/syscall.h> #include <sys/vfs.h> @@ -701,6 +708,7 @@ static int test_migrate_start(QTestState **from, QTestState **to, const char *memory_size; const char *machine_alias, *machine_opts = ""; g_autofree char *machine = NULL; + g_autofree gchar *device_opts = NULL; if (args->use_shmem) { if (!g_file_test("/dev/shm", G_FILE_TEST_IS_DIR)) { @@ -793,12 +801,17 @@ static int test_migrate_start(QTestState **from, QTestState **to, g_test_message("Using machine type: %s", machine); + device_opts = g_strdup(getenv("QTEST_DEVICE_OPTS")); + if (g_str_equal(device_opts, "all")) { + device_opts = g_strdup(DEFAULT_DEVICES); + } + cmd_source = g_strdup_printf("-accel kvm%s -accel tcg " "-machine %s,%s " "-name source,debug-threads=on " "-m %s " "-serial file:%s/src_serial " - "%s %s %s %s %s", + "%s %s %s %s %s %s", kvm_opts ? kvm_opts : "", machine, machine_opts, memory_size, tmpfs, @@ -806,6 +819,7 @@ static int test_migrate_start(QTestState **from, QTestState **to, arch_source ? arch_source : "", shmem_opts ? shmem_opts : "", args->opts_source ? args->opts_source : "", + device_opts ? device_opts : "", ignore_stderr); if (!args->only_target) { *from = qtest_init_with_env(QEMU_ENV_SRC, cmd_source); @@ -820,7 +834,7 @@ static int test_migrate_start(QTestState **from, QTestState **to, "-m %s " "-serial file:%s/dest_serial " "-incoming %s " - "%s %s %s %s %s", + "%s %s %s %s %s %s", kvm_opts ? kvm_opts : "", machine, machine_opts, memory_size, tmpfs, uri, @@ -828,6 +842,7 @@ static int test_migrate_start(QTestState **from, QTestState **to, arch_target ? arch_target : "", shmem_opts ? shmem_opts : "", args->opts_target ? args->opts_target : "", + device_opts ? device_opts : "", ignore_stderr); *to = qtest_init_with_env(QEMU_ENV_DST, cmd_target); qtest_qmp_set_event_callback(*to, -- 2.35.3
