[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v7 00/13] tests: Add VM based build tests (for non-x86_64 and/or non-Linux)

[Fam Zheng]

v7: Add Alex's rev-by to patch 2.
    GPLv2 => GPLv2+ for all new files. [Peter]
    Add more description in file header to archive-source.sh for the intended
    usage.  [Peter]
    "output tarball" in usage. [Alex]
    Add quotes to "$1". [Peter]
    Put generated keys in separate files. [Alex]
    Use os.devnull. [Alex]
    More error info when launching QEMU fails. [Alex]

v6: Add license to new file. [Philippe]
    Change tests/.gitignore. [Philippe]

v5: Generate source tar file with a script.
    Fix tmpdir, use pwd.
    Reduce default -j to half cores.

v4: Drop unused imports and parameters. [Cleber]
    Use --exclude-vcs (still no --exclude-vcs-ignores because it's too new). 
[Philippe]
    Use gtar if available. [Philippe, Kamil]
    /dev/ld1a -> /dev/rld1a for netbsd. [Kamil]
    Only use '-enable-kvm' if /dev/kvm is there. [Kamil]
    Grammar fixes of README. [Stefan]
    Rename image on the server to include version and arch. [Kamil]
    Just ignore *.tmp. [Philippe]

v3: Drop RFC.
    Add Stefan's and Kamil's reviewed-bys.
    Use optparse. [Stefan]
    Drop the VGA patch. [Paolo, Stefan]
    Improve exit/exit code/doc. [Stefan]
    Drop unused line from basevm.py. [Stefan]
    Drop "--target-list" form Makefile.
    More intelligent '-j'.
    Add README. [Stefan]

v2: - Add docstring. [Stefan]
    - Call self._load_io_lod. [Stefan]
    - Use "info usernet" and dynamic ssh_port forwarding. [Stefan]
    - Add image checksum.
    - Use os.rename() and os.makedirs(). [Stefan]
    - Fix NetBSD URL. [Kamil]

Build tests in one 32 bit Linux guest and three BSD images are defined in this
series. This is a more managable way than the manually maintained virtual
machines in patchew. Also, one big advantage of ephemeral VMs over long running
guests is the reduced RAM usage of host, which makes it possible to have one
host test all these BSD variants and probably more.

The BSD guest templates are manually prepared following

https://wiki.qemu.org/Hosts/BSD

as it is not easy to automate. (The ideal approach is like the ubuntu.i386
script, which configures the guest on top of an official released image, fully
automatically.)

Need for help: "gmake check" in the added OpenBSD image fails with -ENOMEM
errors, even if I change "-m 2G" to "-m 8G" when starting VM. Ideas? And there
is a warning from ./configure about OpenBSD going to be unsupported in coming
releases, is it still the case?
