[Qemu-devel] [RFC 09/24] avocado_qemu: Ignore kernel messages on get_console

[Eduardo Habkost]

From: Lukáš Doktor <address@hidden>

The get_console (and _handle_prompt) uses the last non-empty line to
check what is going on, but when debug is enabled, kernel produces lots
of lines spoiling the output. Let's also ignore the messages that looks
like kernel debugs ([  $float] $msg).

This significantly improves the results on my machine with JeOS and
enabled debug.
