[PATCH v2 0/8] Improve integration of iotests in the meson test harness

[Thomas Huth]

Though "make check-block" is currently already run via the meson test
runner, it still looks like an oddball in the output of "make check" since
the tests are still run separately via the check-block.sh script. It would
be nicer if the iotests would show up like the other tests suites. For this
we have to tweak the tests/qemu-iotests/check script so that it can already
be run with "-g auto -n" during the configuration step [*], then we can
directly add the individual tests in the tests/qemu-iotests/meson.build file
already and finally get rid of the check-block.sh script.

[*] Alternatively, we could also get rid of the "auto" group and add
the test list to the tests/qemu-iotests/meson.build file directly ... 

Note: There's still something really weird that happens sometimes after
running "make check-block" with this patch set: Sometimes the terminal
is in non-echo mode, so that you have to run "reset" to get the terminal
back to normal ... I currently don't have clue what's causing that
issue ... Paolo, did you ever experience something like that with the
meson test runner?

v2:
 - Add new 1st patch to fix "make check-block SPEED=thorough"
 - Improve bash version check
 - Rewrite the 'Allow to run "./check -n"' patch to be less ugly
 - Add patch to print the "diff" of the iotests to stderr, so that
   it shows up in TAP mode, too

Thomas Huth (8):
  tests/qemu-iotests/testrunner: Allow parallel test invocations
  tests/qemu-iotests: Improve the check for GNU sed
  tests/qemu-iotests/meson.build: Improve the indentation
  tests/qemu-iotests: Allow to run "./check -n" from the source
    directory, too
  tests/qemu-iotests/meson.build: Call the 'check' script directly
  tests: Do not treat the iotests as separate meson test target anymore
  tests/qemu-iotests/testrunner: Print diff to stderr in TAP mode
  tests: Remove check-block.sh
