Create a test job that
- boots xen on qemu with a single direct mapped dom0less guest
configured with statically allocated memory
Although you said booting a single direct mapped dom0less guest
configured with statically allocated memory here, later in code, you are
only enabling statically allocated memory in the ImageBuilder script,
missing the direct-map property.
- verifies that the memory ranges reported in the guest's logs are
the same with the provided static memory regions
For guest kernel, use the 5.9.9 kernel from the tests-artifacts containers.
Use busybox-static package, to create the guest ramdisk.
To generate the u-boot script, use ImageBuilder.
Use the qemu from the tests-artifacts containers.

Any particular reason to build a new Xen rather enable
CONFIG_STATIC_MEMORY in the existing build?

This feels a bit of a hack to be arm only. Can you explain why this
is not enabled for x86 (other than this is not yet used)?

From the name, it is not clear what the base and size refers too.
Looking a bit below, it seems to be referring to the domain memory.
If so, I would suggest to comment and rename to "domu_{base, size}".

AFAIK, earlyprintk is not an option for Xen on Arm (at least). It is
also not clear why you need to pass xsm=dummy.

You would like to add DOMU_DIRECT_MAP[0] = 1 to enable direct-map.
The imagebuilder configuration option DOMU_DIRECT_MAP defaults to 1.
But I could add DOMU_DIRECT_MAP[0]=1 in the script to make it clearer.

A lot of the code above is duplicated from qemu-smoke-arm64.sh. I
think it would be better to consolidate in a single script. Looking
briefly throught the existing scripts, it looks like it is possible
to pass arguments (see qemu-smoke-x86-64.sh).
One idea would be to make the script common and "source" a second
script or config file with just the ImageBuilder configuration because
it looks like it is the only thing different.

Please add a comment on top to explain what this is meant to do.
However, I think we should avoid relying on output that we have
written ourself. IOW, relying on Xen/Linux to always write the same
message is risky because they can change at any time.
Especially if we make the script common, then we could just rely on
the existing check to see if the guest started correctly (no special
check for static memory).
In this case, how the test will verify that the static memory configuration has
been taken into account and has not just been ignored?
If only statically allocated memory is enabled, guest memory address will still
be mapped
to GUEST_RAM_BASE(0x40000000)
