Description

install_only@aarch64_cpu_max test (in Tumbleweed aarch64) runs without KVM and allows to test features unsupported by current hardware in openQA (such as Pointer Authentication, and BTI).
It currently runs on ip-10-0-0-58 machine.

It would be interesting to try it on an openqaworkerX (x86_64) machine to compare the performances. This is doable since we need to disable KVM.
But, we must:

  • install some dependencies: qemu-arm qemu-uefi-aarch64
  • add qemu_aarch64_max to WORKER_CLASS in worker config

good idea. I think you could even try yourself. You can login, right? Just watch out what you break and we are good :)

It seems all workers share the same credentials. So, I will have a look.

I installed qemu-arm qemu-uefi-aarch64 on openqaworker4 and clone a job with WORKER_CLASS=openqaworker4 to test: https://openqa.opensuse.org/t2088201
EDIT: New test without huge pages: https://openqa.opensuse.org/t2088202
