[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2 0/8] tests: apci: consolidate and cleanup ACPI test code

[Igor Mammedov]

Changes since v1:
  * rebase on top of current master due to a lots of conflicts with
    'qtest global' removal being merged first
  * drop explicit cast to uint8_t* as sdt->aml is uint8_t* now
  * drop not comment explaining strange offsets as offsets are
    now follow ACPI spec

While working on adding tests for virt/arm board (uefi/XSDT/64-bit table 
pointers),
I found it's rather difficult to deal with mixed ACPI testing code that we've
collected so far. So instead of just adding a pile of XSDT hacks on top, here
goes small refactoring series:
   * that removes dead code
   * replaces reading tables with a fetch per table everywhere instead of
     mix of field by field and whole table
   * consolidates the way tables are read (reduces code duplication)
   * test no longer depends on ACPI structures from QEMU (i.e. doesn't affected
     by mistakes there) 
   * fixes FACS not being compared against reference tables
Overall test is reduced on ~160LOC and hopefully it makes easier to follow and
add more stuff on top.

PS:
arm/virt test patches fill follow up a separate series on top of this one
for not to mix things up
