qemuimage-testlib: Capture stderror in the logs as well as stdout

2013-03-27T17:28:01+00:00

This allows error messages to be captured in the logs which is helpful. (From OE-Core rev: efb89b3fd5a96da70153f24c849d1436d1ba06cb) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

qemuimagetest: collect and print runqemu output

2013-03-27T17:28:01+00:00

If runqemu (or qemu itself) fails we need to know why, so tee out to a log file and print it when we can't find the qemu process or determine its IP address. (From OE-Core rev: 3faa2d5bc993876f1f8b3ad806a0192efaa43e05) Signed-off-by: Paul Eggleton Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

qemuimagetest: fix erroneous ps errors when qemu couldn't be started

2013-03-27T17:28:01+00:00

The helper script was printing an error to stdout when it couldn't find any qemu child processes; output this error to stderr instead and redirect stderr to /dev/null when running from qemuimage-testlib so that QEMUPID is actually blank if there are no qemu instances found.

scripts/qemu-testlib: Add more debugging information

2013-03-27T17:28:01+00:00

This extra information should allow better forensics if the sanity tests fail as they're currently doing occasionaly on the autobuilder for unknown reasons. The patch also tightens up certain checks to remove pointless noise and error output from the logs. (From OE-Core rev: aef04b2247137fffb8c1b1d776091bbee8637ff9) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

scripts/runqemu-internal: Fix lock races

2013-03-27T17:28:00+00:00

There are two problems here. Firstly the grep command is unanchored so pid 345 will match against 12345 and so on. The second issue is that there are several context switched between attempting the lock and then writing the pid to it. Between the two issues, there were issues appearing on the autobuilder due to these conflicts. This patch replaces the mechanism with flock on fd 8 which should be a safer mechanism to use.

runqemu: Improve error handling/exit codes

2013-03-27T17:28:00+00:00

runqemu-internal is sourced so should be returning with an error code in case of errors. runqemu needs to deal with this. This patch fixes up the various error paths so we're consistent and get a sane exit status for runqemu which helps a lot in its use in the qemu runtime testing on the autobuilder.

qemuimage-testlib: Add extra debugging and sanity check

2013-03-27T17:28:00+00:00

Check for a zero IP address since its clearly incorrect if that value is found. Also add debugging for cases where we can't find the qemu process. A process listing is handy to help understand what the problem might be. (From OE-Core rev: a822eff2362ac0284b320b2d45cf9dbf9b9dd73c) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie

qemuimage-testlib: Add delay to work around races in qemu startup

2013-03-27T17:28:00+00:00

Qemu changes pid when starting up. On a loaded machine, this can result in the incorrect pid being returned. Since qemu will take a few seconds to boot anyway, we might as well delay a short while and allow things to settle which should fix various race issues being seen on the autobuilder.

qemuimage-testlib: Fix IP address handling

2013-03-27T17:28:00+00:00

Remove some pointless code and also fix the return handling for the function since it returns null, not 0 as the comments would suggest. (From OE-Core rev: 827492e3738bf3b6cf2bc1b9e1108bb28abcb146) Signed-off-by: Richard Purdie
