Subject: [Qemu-devel] [RFC PATCH 0/3] Make kvm-unit-tests more friendly to upstream QEMU
Date: Thu, 24 Feb 2011 15:48:02 -0600	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1298584085-13129-1-git-send-email-aliguori@us.ibm.com> (raw)

This series makes an attempt to make kvm-unit-tests more friendly to upstream
QEMU.  I've been writing unit tests for all of the QMP commands and many of
them, like ballooning, require guest cooperation to be tested in a meaningful
way.

I'm leaning towards building simple guests using libcflat in order to do this
using some very simple PCI device drivers.  To get started, I made a few changes
to kvm-unit-tests to make them more friendly to QEMU upstream basically by
using platform devices instead of relying on special test devices.

I'm not sure this is the right path to go yet but I thought I'd share anyway.
