When doing 'make clean', we remove the cached image. So doing
'make -C TEST-NN-foo clean setup run clean-again' in a loop is very slow.
Let's filter out the 'clean' target (if specified), and do the cleaning
in the beginning, and then run other targets in a loop as before.
The test would fail when run again from the same image. So let's
rename the stuff we create to be more unique, and remove it before
running the test. (Removing it after would be more elegant, but it's
hard to make sure that everything is removed when things fail halfway.
Cleanup *before* tests is much more rebust.)
Using s-j-remote fixes the following issue: when coalescing files from multiple
inputs, simply copying all files with into the the same directory might
potentially mess things up, because a newer system.journal might overwrite an
older journal. This happens because we run multiple tests from the same image,
and need to clean out the directory after each run.
By using systemd-journal-remote, we nicely coalesce all files. This has the
advantage that if there aren't too many logs, we end up with just one journal
file.
ARTIFACT_DIRECTORY is for ubuntuautopackagetests, where the journal files are
copied to a separate directory to preserve after tests have been run. This
functionality can now be recreated by setting
ARTIFACT_DIRECTORY=$AUTOPKGTEST_ARTIFACTS.
This was done downstream in debian and ubuntu [1]. I want to change the
downstream file to use run-integration-tests so we can change the way tests
work more easily. Let's start moving downstream functionality upstream.
$ sudo BLACKLIST_MARKERS='blacklist-ubuntu-ci-arm64 blacklist-ubuntu-ci' \
BUILD_DIR=build test/run-integration-tests.sh

On azure systemd.systemd ci, the build would fail with:
meson.build:53:0: ERROR: Program or command '/home/appuser/fuzzer/tools/add-git-hook.sh' not found or not executable
We use find_program() for all helpers, so let's do it for this one too.
This should solve the issue, whatever it exactly is.
It is more trouble than it is worth. The setup is of a loopback device
is very quick, so it's better to always create it when needed and
immediately drop afterwards.
This causes the unprivileged-nspawn-root directory to be removed
after running one test. The advantage is that we reduce the maximum
disk-space use quite a bit (47*400 MB → about 18GB).
has-overflow was a temporary hack that was removed in
844da987ef (Oct. 2016). All the makefiles
can be the same, and all the targets can be handled identically.
Before, we'd copy the test tree into nspawn-root, and run the tests from there.
This is OK, and doesn't actually take much extra time. But it uses quite a lot
of extra disk space. So let's make things a bit more efficient by running
directly from the image file.
We still run the unprivileged nspawn tests from a copy. Once the kernel
implements fs shift, we can do away with that too.
Before, we'd create a separate image for each test, in
/var/tmp/systemd-test.XXXXX/rootdisk.img. Most of the images
where very similar, except that each one had some unit files installed
specifically for the test. The installation of those custom unit files
was removed in previous commits (all the unit files are always installed).
The new approach is to only create as few distinct images as possible.
We have:
default.img: the "normal" image suitable for almost all the tests
basic.img: the same as default image but doesn't mask any services
cryptsetup.img: p2 is used for encrypted /var
badid.img: /etc/machine-id is overwritten with stuff
selinux.img: with selinux added for fun and fun
and a few others:
ls -l build/test/*img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:23 build/test/badid.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.PJFFeo/badid.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 38 Mar 21 21:17 build/test/basic.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.na0xOI/basic.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 43 Mar 21 21:18 build/test/cryptsetup.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.Tzjv06/cryptsetup.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:19 build/test/default.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.EscAsS/default.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:22 build/test/nspawn.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.HSebKo/nspawn.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 40 Mar 21 21:20 build/test/selinux.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.daBjbx/selinux.img
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 39 Mar 21 21:21 build/test/test08.img -> /var/tmp/systemd-test.OgnN8Z/test08.img
I considered trying to use the same image everywhere. It would probably be
possible, but it would be very brittle. By using separate images where it is
necessary we keep various orthogonal modifications independent.
The way that images are cached is complicated by the fact that we still
want to keep them in /var/tmp. Thus, an image is created on first use and
linked to from build/test/ so it can be found by other tests.
Tests cannot be run in parallel. I think that is an acceptable limitation.
Creation of the images was probably taking more resources then the actual
tests, so we should be better off anyway.
We had an fstab for the sole purpose of remounting "/" rw. Mounting root ro
is a pointless excercise in obsolete approaches. More importantly, the nspawn
image is now the same as the qemu one.
The two timezone files are now installed in the global setup. I am not too
happy about this, but it still seems better than to create a completely
separate image just for this.
