Dear Julius,

https://qa.coreboot.org/job/coreboot-boot-test/ sends off ToT builds to
9esec's Lava system where they are run on some virtual and real devices.
See for example the comments to
https://review.coreboot.org/c/coreboot/+/51189 where Lava reports passing
on 5 qemu configs and 3 real devices.

Right, but that's different... those tests only run on patches after they
are merged (and IIRC they do get broken occasionally and I don't think many
people pay attention to them. When I see those broken on one of my patches
I tend to just assume there was an existing breakage in the tree already).

I understand that there may be good reasons why we can't run the real
hardware tests on every patch set and make them block Verified+1. But for
QEMU that shouldn't be too hard? We already build images for the emulation
boards anyway, running QEMU to boot them just takes a second, and it
shouldn't require anything that isn't already available on the machines
that do all the compiling. Why can't we do that as part of that step
already?

I pinged you on #coreb...@irc.freenode.net, but looks like you didn’t see it.

I think the reason is, nobody has finished setting it up. Martin’s change-set CB:20877 (WIP: Add extended tests) [1] from 2017 adds basic QEMU tests, but wasn’t finished.


Kind regards,

Paul
