Hi,
What do you think about adding couple of test cases for ARM to our openQA? I remember two cases when our JeOSes were broken independently of hardware. First one, when u-boot was looking for boot.scr in wrong place, second one, when the kernel 3.14 was broken due to bug in depmod.
So, I think that we could test JeOS-vexpress and JeOS-vexpress64 for armv7 and aarch64 using qemu emulation (I know that it is slow ;) )
Then just check that the image is booted for the first time, and for the second time, controlling the process through serial console.
At the moment I have no idea how many efforts are needed to implement this.
Sounds good to me but I have zero knowledge on openQA.
Yup. Definitely a really good idea. [...]
Yes, I had brought this up at an openQA presentation months ago, but it was never followed up upon. Let's CC Bernhard: What needs to be done to add "qemu-system-arm -machine something" based tests to openQA so that people can add and edit Needles? As I understood Alex, the biggest hurdle inside QEMU is that not every machine (well, hardly any apparently) is able to boot the real U-Boot, whether via -bios directly or via -drive/-pflash from JeOS disk image. For instance, vexpress-a9, vexpress-a15, highbank, midway, xilinx-zynq-a9 and cubieboard are among the -machine options that we might test using -kernel directly, if openQA allows that.
