[Qemu-devel] [PATCH for-2.12 0/7] Test more machines and TCG CPUs automatically

[Thomas Huth]

During the 2.11 development cycle, a bunch of ARM boards were broken
completely, and nobody noticed it for a couple of weeks. Also a lot
of TCG CPUs do not get any test coverage at all yet (especially since
the old tests in the tests/tcg/ are still pretty much dead today).
So we really should improve our testing in this area.

This patch series now tries to improve the test coverage at least a
little bit: The second patch adds the possibility to the boot-serial
test to also load home-brew mini-kernels and firmware blobs, and the
following patches then add some tests for various boards / CPUs with
some few lines of self-made assembly.

Thomas Huth (7):
  tests/boot-serial-test: Make sure that we check the timeout regularly
  tests/boot-serial-test: Add code to allow to specify our own kernel or
    bios
  tests/boot-serial-test: Add support for the mcf5208evb board
  tests/boot-serial-test: Add tests for microblaze boards
  hw/moxie/moxiesim: Add support for loading a BIOS on moxiesim
  tests/boot-serial-test: Add a test for the moxiesim machine
  tests/boot-serial-test: Add support for the raspi2 machine
