This is a *long* overdue update of the Avocado version used in QEMU. It comes a time where the role of the runner and the libraries are being discussed and questioned.
These exact commits have been staging on my side for over 30 days now, and I was exceeding what I should in terms of testing before posting. I apologize for the miscalculation. Nevertheless, as pointed out, on the ML, these changes are needed NOW. Some examples of runs in the CI can be seen below: * Serial with 103.0 LTS (https://gitlab.com/cleber.gnu/qemu/-/jobs/7074346143#L220): RESULTS : PASS 46 | ERROR 0 | FAIL 0 | SKIP 2 | WARN 0 | INTERRUPT 0 | CANCEL 0 JOB TIME : 432.63 s * Parallel with 103.0 LTS (https://gitlab.com/cleber.gnu/qemu/-/jobs/7085879478#L222) RESULTS : PASS 46 | ERROR 0 | FAIL 0 | SKIP 2 | WARN 0 | INTERRUPT 0 | CANCEL 0 JOB TIME : 148.99 s Changes from v1 (references are from v1): This version first applies the Avocado version bump (now PATCH 1), adding to that patch the serial execution behavior. Avocado 103.0 LTS can run all existing tests in QEMU without any changes, so it's safe to pick PATCH 1 *only* from this series if needed. A GitLab CI job that does only that can be seen here: https://gitlab.com/cleber.gnu/qemu/-/pipelines/1402633650 Details on changes: * Moved "Bump avocado to 103.0" to first patch * Patches already applied: - [PATCH 1/13] tests/avocado: mips: fallback to HTTP given certificate expiration - [PATCH 2/13] tests/avocado: mips: add hint for fetchasset plugin - [PATCH 8/13] testa/avocado: test_arm_emcraft_sf2: handle RW requirements for asset * Dropped patches: - [PATCH 3/13] tests/avocado/intel_iommu.py: increase timeout - [PATCH 6/13] tests/avocado: use more distinct names for assets - Replaced with "tests/avocado: simplify parameters on fetch_asset with name only" - [PATCH 7/13] tests/avocado/kvm_xen_guest.py: cope with asset RW requirements * [PATCH 5/13] tests/avocado: machine aarch64: standardize location and RO access: - Fixed rebase mistake * [PATCH 11/13] tests/avocado/machine_aarch64_sbsaref.py: allow for rw usage of image - Use "snapshot=on" instead of new copy of file * New patches: - tests/avocado: apply proper skipUnless decorator - tests/avocado: simplify parameters on fetch_asset with name only Cleber Rosa (9): Bump avocado to 103.0 tests/avocado: apply proper skipUnless decorator tests/avocado: add cdrom permission related tests tests/avocado: machine aarch64: standardize location and RO access tests/avocado: simplify parameters on fetch_asset with name only tests/avocado/boot_xen.py: fetch kernel during test setUp() tests/avocado/tuxrun_baselines.py: use Avocado's zstd support tests/avocado/machine_aarch64_sbsaref.py: allow for rw usage of image Avocado tests: allow for parallel execution of tests docs/devel/testing.rst | 12 +++++++ pythondeps.toml | 2 +- tests/Makefile.include | 6 +++- tests/avocado/boot_linux_console.py | 1 - tests/avocado/boot_xen.py | 13 ++++---- tests/avocado/cdrom.py | 41 ++++++++++++++++++++++++ tests/avocado/intel_iommu.py | 1 - tests/avocado/kvm_xen_guest.py | 2 +- tests/avocado/linux_initrd.py | 1 - tests/avocado/machine_aarch64_sbsaref.py | 4 +-- tests/avocado/machine_aarch64_virt.py | 14 ++++---- tests/avocado/machine_aspeed.py | 2 -- tests/avocado/machine_mips_malta.py | 2 -- tests/avocado/machine_rx_gdbsim.py | 2 -- tests/avocado/netdev-ethtool.py | 2 +- tests/avocado/reverse_debugging.py | 4 --- tests/avocado/smmu.py | 1 - tests/avocado/tuxrun_baselines.py | 16 ++++----- 18 files changed, 82 insertions(+), 44 deletions(-) create mode 100644 tests/avocado/cdrom.py -- 2.45.2
