action #111602
Updated by okurz almost 2 years ago
## Observation okurz recently changed 18-qemu-options.t so the second run in the `qemu_append_option` subtest appends `-M ? -version`. Previously it appended `-M ?`. The test assumes that qemu will always print only the version information (not supported machines) when run this way, but that doesn't seem safe. In Fedora's build environment, we get both the version information and the supported machines: 2: # [2022-05-25T19:04:44.856378Z] [debug] starting: /usr/bin/qemu-system-i386 -chardev ringbuf,id=serial0,logfile=serial0,logappend=on -serial chardev:serial0 -audiodev none,id=snd0 -device intel-hda -device hda-output,audiodev=snd0 -global isa-fdc.fdtypeA=none -m 1024 -netdev user,id=qanet0 -device virtio-net,netdev=qanet0,mac=52:54:00:12:34:56 -object rng-random,filename=/dev/urandom,id=rng0 -device virtio-rng-pci,rng=rng0 -boot once=d -device qemu-xhci -device usb-tablet -smp 1 -no-shutdown -vnc :90,share=force-shared -device virtio-serial -chardev pipe,id=virtio_console,path=virtio_console,logfile=virtio_console.log,logappend=on -device virtconsole,chardev=virtio_console,name=org.openqa.console.virtio_console -chardev pipe,id=virtio_console1,path=virtio_console1,logfile=virtio_console1.log,logappend=on -device virtconsole,chardev=virtio_console1,name=org.openqa.console.virtio_console1 -chardev socket,path=qmp_socket,server=on,wait=off,id=qmp_socket,logfile=qmp_socket.log,logappend=on -qmp chardev:qmp_socket -S -M ? -version -device virtio-scsi-pci,id=scsi0 -blockdev driver=file,node-name=hd0-file,filename=/tmp/18-qemu-options.t-dNVG/pool/raid/hd0,cache.no-flush=on -blockdev driver=qcow2,node-name=hd0,file=hd0-file,cache.no-flush=on -device virtio-blk,id=hd0-device,drive=hd0,serial=hd0 2: # [2022-05-25T19:04:44.862180Z] [debug] Waiting for 0 attempts 2: # perl: warning: Setting locale failed. 2: # perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings: 2: # LANGUAGE = (unset), 2: # LC_ALL = "en_US.UTF-8", 2: # LANG = "en_US.UTF-8" 2: # are supported and installed on your system. 2: # perl: warning: Falling back to the standard locale ("C"). 2: # [2022-05-25T19:04:45.032982Z] [debug] Waiting for 1 attempts 2: # [2022-05-25T19:04:45.033289Z] [info] ::: backend::baseclass::die_handler: Backend process died, backend errors are reported below in the following lines: 2: # QEMU terminated before QMP connection could be established.

Why are we testing qemu behaviour here? Shouldn't we only care whether the parameters got appended properly? ## Acceptance criteria * **AC1:** A conscious decision was made if we want to do such test at all or not ## Suggestions * Read the question from AdamWilliamson why we test this at all, understand why the according test was included, make sure that we only do test what makes sense feature and coverage wise
