Subject: [OSSTEST Nested PATCH v9 0/9] Introduction of netsted HVM test job
Date: Sat, 2 May 2015 14:28:09 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1430548098-5233-1-git-send-email-longtaox.pang@intel.com> (raw)
This patch set adds nested HVM test case for osstest.
In this test case, a Xen hypervisor (L1) runs on top of another Xen
hypervisor (L0).
Upon L1 hypervisor, we will then create a nested guest (L2), and test if the
Linux guest can then be installed and run well.
About nested Xen virtualization,
refer to http://wiki.xenproject.org/wiki/Nested_Virtualization_in_Xen.
Test steps
0. To run osstest in standalone mode, write a config file in
'~/.xen-osstest/config', and then create a standalone.config file
to define 'TREE_LINUX', 'REVISION_LINUX' which will be used for
nested test. The directory path of 'Debian Images' could be defined
in '~/.xen-osstest/config'.
1. run './standalone-reset' to generate standalone.db firstly then run
'build-amd64' job and then 'build-amd64-pvops', to prepare xen
installation tarball and hvm guest kernel.
2. run 'test-amd64-amd6-qemuu-nested' job, it does following:
a. invoke test step of 'ts-debain-hvm-install' to install
a normal HVM guest
b. invoke test step of 'ts-nested-setup' to make some
appropriate runvars which selecthost() would recognise and
prepare the configurations for installing L2 guest VM.
c. invoke test step of 'ts-xen-install' to install xen on
the normal guest, alter it into a L1 hypervisor
d. invoke test step of 'ts-debain-hvm-install' again, but
take the L1 hypervisor as host, install the L2 guest on it
e. invoke test step of 'ts-guest-stop', stop L2 guest.
f. invoke test step of 'ts-guest-destroy' to destroy L1 guest.
This patch set reuse 'ts-debian-hvm-install' for both L1 installation
and L2 installation, use 'nestedl1' as L1's guestname and identity
and use 'nestedl2 as L2's guestname.
It also reuses 'ts-xen-install' with L1's identity 'nestedl1' input parameter
to differentiate from L0 Xen installation.
This patch series has been tested on test machines of amd64 arch,
Debian-7.2.0-amd64 as guests OS, with hvm domain0 of Linux kernel 3.18.5,
in standalone mode.
Also, we use linux-stable tree as domain0 kernel source.
