Currently in at least some of the testcases we kill qemu processes we're
done with by issuing a Control-C to the tmux panel it's running in. That
makes things harder as we try to move towards allowing "headless" testing
without tmux.
So, instead always use an explicit kill on a pid derived from a pidfile
for killing qemu. Note that we don't need to remove the pidfiles
afterwards, because qemu does that itself when terminated.

The test scripts run with sh -e, which means they will stop if any commands
return an error. That's generally desirable, because we won't continue
after things are hopeless due to an earlier step failing.
Unfortunately, the tmux setup we run the script in means it's not obvious
where any error messages related to such a failure will go. Depending on
exactly where the error occurs they might go to the original terminal
hidden behind tmux, or they might go to a tmux panel that's not visible in
the normal layouts.
To make it easier to find such error message, redirect direct output and
errors from the test script itself to a 'script.log' file in the logs
directory. When in DEBUG=1 mode, additionaly 'set -x' so we log all the
commands we execute to that file.

For the passt and passt_in_ns tests we have a "shutdown" testcase that
checks for any errors from the passt process we were using (including
valgrind warnings). Do the same for pasta tests, so that we catch any
error codes from the pasta process.

The "valgrind" test cases are designed to pick up errors reported when
passt is running under valgrind. But what it actually does is just kill
the passt process, then see if it had a non-zero exit code. That means it
will equally well pick up any other problems which caused passt to exit
with an error status: either something detected within passt or as a result
of passt being killed by an unexpected signal.
The fact that the "valgrind" test is actually responsible for shutting down
the passt process is non-obvious and can lead to problems when selectively
running tests during debugging.
Rename the "valgrind" tests to "shutdown" tests and run it regardless of
whether we're using valgrind or not. This allows us to remove an ugly
speacial case in the passt_in_ns teardown code.

We still use nc or ncat for the distro tests. Because there we control

Now that the back end allows passt/pasta to use different external
interfaces for IPv4 and IPv6, use that to do the right thing in the case
that the host has IPv4 and IPv6 connectivity via different interfaces.
If the user hasn't explicitly chosen an interface, separately search for
a suitable external interface for each protocol.
As a bonus, this substantially simplifies the external interface probe. It
also eliminates a subtle confusing case where in some circumstances we
would pick the first interface in interface index order, and sometimes in
order of routes returned from netlink. On some network configurations that
could cause tests to fail, because the logic in the tests was subtly
different (it always used route order).

By default, passt itself attaches to the first host interface with a
default route. However, when determining the host interface name the tests
implicitly select the *last* host interface: they use a jq expression which
will list all interfaces with default routes, but the way output detection
works in the scripts, it will only pick up the last line.
If there are multiple interfaces with default routes on the host, and they
each have a different address, this can cause spurious test failures.

teardown_passt_in_ns() sends a ^D to the NS pane, which appears to be
intended to terminate the nsenter running there, leaving the namespace.
However, we've also sent a ^D to the PASST pane which will exit the pasta
instance which created the namespace. With the namespace destroyed the
nsenter in the NS pane will be killed, so it does not need to be exited
explicitly.
In fact sending the extra ^D can be harmful, since it will exit the shell
in which the nsenter was run, causing the whole pane to be closed. That
can then mean that the "pane_wait NS" hangs indefinitely. I believe this
will sometimes work, because there's a race between the various options
here, but it should be more reliable without the extra ^D.

use 'hout' commands that need to be able to detect empty output.

recent bash, it will have bracketed paste mode enabled which will also
add escape codes which will mess up the empty output detection.

Currently our small custom dhclient-script only handles the 'domain-name'

We previously introduced a change to passt to handle the case where the

To check publishing of DNS information via DHCP, we need to extract a list
of nameservers and/or search domains from resolv.conf in the test script.
The current version (usually) leaves the result with a trailing ','.
That's usually ok because it happens on both guest and host sides. However
it's kind of confusing, and might stop working if the host had a
resolv.conf without a trailing \n on the last line. It also makes some
later changes we'll need more difficult.
So, normalize the output from resolv.conf a bit further, removing any
trailing ','. It turns out we can do this with a slightly less complex
sed expression than the one we already have.

Before booting the guest images, the distro test cases need to modify the
guest images, using virt-edit and guestfish, to boot in the way we need.
At present this gets repeated on every test run, even though it's not
really doing anything we want to test for.
In addition many of the images have the same preparation steps leading to
a lot of duplicated stages in the tests. A number of additional images can
be prepared using common steps, even if the ones used now have small
differences.
Therefore move the preparation of most of the guest images to the asset
build phase, where they can be done a single time for multiple test runs,
using a common preparation script. We can even avoid making a copy of the
disk image for booting, by using qemu's -snapshot option.
A few of the distros (openSUSE and older Ubuntu) do need different steps.
For now we don't chage how they are run, they could possibly be handled

Currently test/run uses wildcards to run all of the tests in a directory.
However, that wildcard list is filtered down by the "onlyfor" directives

Therefore, just explicitly list the files we *really* want to run for this
test mode. This makes it easier to see at the top level what tests will
be executed, and to change that list temporarily while debugging specific
failures.
This means the "onlyfor" directive no longer has any purpose, and we can

The top level listing control of which tests to run is in test/run, however
it uses the test() function which runs an entire directory of test files,
filtered by some criteria. This makes it awkward to narrow down to a
subset of tests when debugging a specific failure.
To make this easier, have test() take an explicit list of test files to
run, and have the caller in test/run handle the directory traversal. The
construct we use for this is pretty awkward to handle the fact that we're
in the source tree root directory rather than test/ at this point in
test/run. Later cleanups will improve that.

The test scripts support a "req" directive which requires one test script
to be run before another. It's implemented by doing a topological sort
based on these directives in the runner scripts, which is about as awkward
as you'd expect in Bourne shell.
It turns out we only use this functionality in one place - to make the
"make install" test run after the plain "make" test. We also already have
a simpler way of making sure tests run in a specific order: just put them
into the same test script file.
So, remove support for the "req" directive and just fold the build/all and

Apparently qemu's ARM virt machine needs to be explicitly given a firmware
image, rather than just supplying a sane default. Unfortunately the EDK2
firmware image we need isn't in the same place on all host distros.
Currently the test scripts hardcode the Debian location, meaning it will
break on hosts that have it somewhere else. This patch searches multiple
locations for the firmware, and creates a local link during the asset build
phase, which the tests can then use.
For now it only searches the locations used by Debian and Fedora, but
that's a small improvement in robustness already, and can be later improved

A lot of tests and examples invoke qemu with the command "kvm". However,
as far as I can tell, "kvm" being aliased to the appropriate qemu system
binary is Debian specific. The binary names from qemu upstream -
qemu-system-$ARCH - also aren't universal, but they are more common (they
should be good for both Debian and Fedora at least).
In order to still get KVM acceleration when available, we use the option
"-M accel=kvm:tcg" to tell qemu to try using either KVM or TCG in that
order
A number of the places we invoked "kvm" are expecting specifically an x86
guest, and so it's also safer to explicitly invoke qemu-system-x86_64.
Some others appear to be independent of the target arch (just wanting the
same arch as the host to allow KVM acceleration). Although I suspect there
may be more subtle x86 specific options in the qemu command lines, attempt
to preserve arch independence by using $(uname -m).
