[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v3 0/8] iotests: Selfish patches

[Max Reitz <mreitz@redhat.com>]

Hi,

Nothing has changed too much since the previous version, thus I’ll start
with a link to its cover letter:

https://lists.nongnu.org/archive/html/qemu-block/2019-06/msg01102.html


What has changed is this:

v3:
- Patches 2 and 3: Resolved rebase conflicts

- Added patch 4.  It seems useful to support the new case-skipping
  method in @iotests.skip_if_unsupported so that annotation works even
  with setUp().

- Added patch 5.  This has been proposed by Kevin back in v1 (for a
  slightly different reason, though).
  Now that I added patch 4, it would be nice if I could make use of it
  for patches 6 and 7, but the problem is that both tests store the
  driver name in a class attribute.  Therefore, we need patch 5 that
  allows us to query that attribute’s value in skip_if_unsupported().

- Patches 6 and 7: Make use of the fact that the annotation works now
  (Also, I dropped supported_null_drivers, because there is no point in
  having it – especially with patch 8.)
  ((Also, resolved rebase conflicts.))

- Added patch 8.  It just itches me that we call qemu every time we
  inquire the list of supported formats, and this patch eases that itch.
