RHEL 8 doesn't have qemu-system-x86_64 in PATH. Instead, it is in
/usr/libexec/qemu-kvm. This commit fixes that by detecting the host
distro and choosing the right binary.
-cpu host cannot be used with anything else than kvm. This commit removes
hvf and tcg because it doesn't make any sense with -cpu host.
If this causes some issues for anyone, we can revert back and remove -cpu
host.
Running qemu with -accel accel= results in the following error:
qemu-system-x86_64: -accel accel=kvm:hvf:tcg: Don't use ':' with -accel,
use -M accel=... for now instead
Qemu 4.2 deprecated the -accel accel= argument. When the arg is passed in,
qemu exists status code of 1.
This commit changes the qemu command to use the recommended way of specifying
the acceleration options.

The cmd/osbuild-image-tests package is becoming bigger than I would like to.
It will be nice to split it to some smaller pieces at some point.
This commit does the first step - splits off the first subpackage containing
all the constants.
Speed up the boot tests by allowing qemu to use all of the available
CPUs on the system. Our CI VMs have at least 2 CPUs and this shortens
the time required for a boot test.

The osbuild-image-tests don't currently support boot test for any
alternative architecture because the qemu-system-x86_64 command is
hardcoded. This patch introduces a branch specific to aarch64, but
without a KVM support as I was unable to make it run in Beaker, which is
currently the only offering we have with ARM machines. As a workaround
the boot tests will be skipped if kvm kernel module is not found and only
image-info tests will run.
Prior this commit the ami images were tested locally using qemu. This does
not reflect at all how they're used in practice. This commit introduces
the support for running them in the actual AWS. Yay!
The structure of code reflects that we want to switch to osbuild-composer
to build the images soon.
It's not very clear that the constants are indeed constants. This commit moves
them to a new struct. This way it should be more clear that those values are
constants.
Build constraints must be added to every file. We only want to build
this package when the `integration` tag is set.
Without this, every build prints this warning:
# github.com/osbuild/osbuild-composer/cmd/osbuild-image-tests
runtime.main_main·f: function main is undeclared in the main package
When using %#v instead of %v, printing an error gives a slightly more
informative error message, therefore this commit switches to %#v in all
error prints.
We need to use different values for path constants when running the tests
on the Travis CI. This is the first step to achieve this.
Note that this commit may be reverted when Travis CI is dropped.
This commit makes the osbuild-image-tests binary doing the same set of tests
like the old test/run script.
Changes from test/run:
- qemu/nspawn are now killed gracefully. Firstly, SIGTERM is sent.
If the process doesn't exit till the timeout, SIGKILL is sent.
I changed this because nspawn leaves some artifacts behind when killed
by SIGKILL.
- the unsharing of network namespace now works differently because of
systemd issue #15079
