Note: patches 10-12 are included for testing simplicity, they shouldn't
be merged. They will be included in a forthcoming block PR.
V4:
- Addressed concern by Marc-Andre in patch 01.
- Squashed Ubuntu patches (rth)
This patch series attempts to improve the reliability of several of the
VM test targets. In particular, both CentOS 8 tests are non-functional
because CentOS 8 was EOL at the beginning of this calendar year, with
repositories and mirrors going offline.
I also remove the ubuntu.i386 test because we no longer support Ubuntu
18.04 nor do we have explicit need of an i386 build test.
After this series, I am able to successfully run every VM target on an
x86_64 host, except:
- ubuntu.aarch64: Hangs often during testing, see below.
- centos.aarch64: Hangs often during testing, see below.
- haiku.x86_64: Build failures not addressed by this series, see
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/qemu-devel/2022-06/msg02103.html
The unit tests that I see fail most often under aarch64 are:
- virtio-net-failover: Seems to like to hang on openbsd
- migration-test: Tends to hang under aarch64 tcg
Future work (next version? next series?);
- Try to get centos.aarch64 working reliably under TCG
- Upgrade ubuntu.aarch64 to 20.04 after fixing centos.aarch64
- Fix the Haiku build test, if possible.
- Ensure I can reliably run and pass "make vm-build-all".
(Remove VMs from this recipe if necessary.)
