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.)
