[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 0/8] Re-submitting some of the patches on the patch queue

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 0/8] Re-submitting some of the patches on the patch queue

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

I have rebased some of the patches on the patch queue I sent earlier to the
list. I am sending them to your appreciation, the other will follow.

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 1/8] kvm_config: Allow for "=" in the value of a config parameter

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

fix modifies kvm_config.split_and_strip so it will only split once per
line.

example: kernel_args = "ks=floppy console=ttyS0 noacpi"

[PATCH 1/3] Make possible to use kvm_config as a standalone program.

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

Replace autotest exceptions for standard python exceptions. This
will allow kvm_config.py to be used as a stand alone program.

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 2/8] RHEL-4.7 step files: fix the initial boot barriers

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

Fix the first barrier to include the 'boot:' prompt. This is crucial
because the guest accepts keyboard input only after this prompt
appears.

Visibility: Small (Data file on the kvm test)
Risk: Low (Small, tested change to a data file)

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 5/8] stepeditor.py: get rid of some shortcuts

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

Disable a few keyboard shortcuts that were initially assumed to be useful,
but apparently override the default functionality of the involved keys
(e.g. 'home', 'end', 'delete') regardless of the widget that has the keyboard
focus.

Also make some indentation changes to the UI description.

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 6/8] Choose a monitor filename in the constructor of VM class

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

Choose a monitor filename in the VM class constructor instead of the
VM.create() method. This will reduce the number of monitor files left
in /tmp, because the constructor is called fewer times than VM.create().

Risk: Low (comprehensible change, just moving a block of code).
Visibility: Small (users of kvm test).

Can you clarify what this test is exactly testing? Is it any of the 
tests on http://kvm.et.redhat.com/page/KVM-Autotest/TODO (if not, please 
add it).
Are you expecting OOM? Or some VMs to go into swap? Are the VMs 
completely idle, except for responding to SSH?
Are you going to integrate KSM into this?


TIA,
Y.

The test is in the wiki -- I added it months ago but didn't write it:
'Write a test which adds VMs until one of them becomes unresponsive, and records the maximum number of VMs successfully started. [jasowang]'

> Are you expecting OOM? Or some VMs to go into swap? Are the VMs

> Are you going to integrate KSM into this?

In my review of the patch I forgot to mention running load on the VMs.
This can be done easily by using 2 sessions per guest (or running in the background of a single session, but I prefer the former), and should be made user configurable via the config file.

I'm not sure about the other things you mentioned -- what should we do about OOM and swap usage? Fail the test? Limit the number of VMs?

And KSM sounds like a good idea, but I'm not sure it should be set up by the framework. Maybe it should be pre-setup on some of the hosts, so eventually some hosts will test with KSM and some without, and the framework can be unaware of that. We can find a way to add that information to the results database (like we currently add the KVM version).
Another option is to write a KSM setup test, like kvm_install, that will either run or not run before all other tests, depending on the control file.

Hello,

Some more comments (in addition to previous comments by others)
1. Do not just send monitor command "quit" but use vm.destroy
    * This was mentioned by Michael, but in a different context.
2. Do not destroy main_vm (or vm1). We may want to run other tests on it.
3. You can use enumerate(vms) instead of looking for vm with index.
4. It would be nice to close all ssh sessions too.

Regards,
     Uri.

OK, I will do modification according to your comments, thank you so much. :)

I have rebased some of the patches on the patch queue I sent earlier to the
list. I am sending them to your appreciation, the other will follow.

[KVM-AUTOTEST PATCH 1/8] kvm_config: Allow for "=" in the value of a config parameter

[Lucas Meneghel Rodrigues]

fix modifies kvm_config.split_and_strip so it will only split once per
line.

example: kernel_args = "ks=floppy console=ttyS0 noacpi"

Fix the first barrier to include the 'boot:' prompt. This is crucial
because the guest accepts keyboard input only after this prompt
appears.
