Subject: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH 0/3] Add a tester for HMP commands
Date: Tue, 21 Mar 2017 11:39:49 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1490092792-30957-1-git-send-email-thuth@redhat.com> (raw)

We currently do not test HMP commands automatically yet, so if they
break, we do not notice this until somebody runs into the problem
(like the "info qtree" problem that we recently had on qemu-system-ppc64).
So let's add a simple tester that runs some HMP commands to check if they
can crash or abort QEMU.

Note: Three boards are currently still blacklisted in the third patch.
I've added the problems to our BiteSizeTasks wiki page, so I hope they
will get fixed by GSoC students or somebody else soon. Once the problems
are fixed, the blacklisting can be removed in the tester, too.

Thomas Huth (3):
  libqtest: Ignore QMP events when parsing the response for HMP commands
  libqtest: Add a generic function to run a callback function for every
    machine
  tests: Add a tester for HMP commands
