[PATCH 0/5] Testing improvements


From: Glenn Washburn
Subject: [PATCH 0/5] Testing improvements
Date: Sat, 19 Dec 2020 04:14:35 -0600

I've been working on getting continuous integration working in gitlab where
testing is being done in an Ubuntu image. This patch series improves various
tests. I've ordered the patches starting with the least controversial patches.
The last two patches I suspect may have some deserve some attention.

Patch 4 allows the partmap_test to pass. I'm not sure why the number of the
device has changed from the setup this test was previously working on. I
suspect it could be either because I'm using a newer qemu or because I'm using
a new firmware/bios.

Patch 5 disables functional tests that have been failing for a long time, by
commenting them out. When someone gets around to fixing them, they can be
uncommented. But as it is, they've been failing for some time and people ignore
those failures. This isn't so nice with a continuous integration system that
largely expects tests to be passing, so it can detect when there are new
failures.
