vmtest: initialize logger with class names for easy parsing
When running vmtest in parallel, having each message include the
TestClass name helps developers map the output to specific tests when
reading the combined log.
packaging: Do not mention primary contributors in debian/changelog.
new-upstream-snapshot gives credit to committers by putting their
name in square brackets on the debian/changelog entries.
For some time in cloud-init we've stripped myself from that list.
I think it makes sense to strip out primary contributors to avoid
noise, but still give credit to new or less frequent contributors.
packaging: Update new-upstream-snapshot to work with git.
After the move to git, we need to update new-upstream-snapshot.
This version comes from cloud-init, with an extra hunk in it to
handle the transition from bzr.
Commit new-upstream-snapshot to master, where it previously
only lived on ubuntu branches. Then, commit it also to the branches
so that it does not cause conflict.
vmtests: switch to MAAS v3 streams for images and kernels
Switching to v3 streams enables testing of Xenial HWE and HWE-edge
kernels and the squashfs root which MAAS 2.3 uses.
- Add v3 streams URL
- Introduce two attributes, ephemeral_ftype, target_ftype to determine
which files are needed for the ephemeral environment and which for the
target
- Add kflavor and subarch filters to streams query and release classes to
support kernel variants: ga, hwe, hwe-edge. We're currently only testing
subarch 'generic' and ignoring 'low-latency'
- When testing with hwe and hwe-edge, emit a kernel configuration to
curtin to ensure we install the matching kernel in the target image
- Make sure vmtests append collect scripts to the base class parameter
so all tests run the BaseVM collect_scripts (dpkg-query)
- Introduce new release classes, XenialGA, XenialHWE and XenialEdge
Note, XenialGA replaces the general Xenial release class, and that
not all test-cases run Xenial HWE/Edge kernels; most of the storage
ones do.
- Booting from a squashfs image requires some changes
- publish the squashfs image and boot VMs with root=URL (except trusty)
- utilize overlayfs to keep the ephemeral environment pristine and
use the squashfs image as a the curtin install source.
- Add some boot parameters to the ephemeral environment to enable
networking, including DNS for package installation.
- Use BOOTIF= parameter for multi-nic vmtests to ensure we only bring
up one nic for ephemeral networking. Sometimes multiple nics would
come online and then cause networking hiccups which prevented
installs from completing.
- Modify vmtest storage configurations for disks to all use a 'serial'
attribute. Currently we use 'disk-X' as the serial value where X
increments from 'a' -> 'z' as the test needs.
- jenkins-runner now prints additional information about what images
are found and available.
- tools/launch
- modify --append to allow multiple parameters to grow the array.
- fix bug in --publish which prevented more than a single file being
published
- allow PUBURL to be expanded in root-arg
- add a 'boot-image' parameter which is exported to the VM with a serial
number to provide a consistent path to the device,
/dev/disk/by-id/virtio-boot-disk
- drop '2G' boot size parameter to boot disks, instead allow qemu-img to
default to the size of backing image.
tests: update pack tests to clear out pyc files more completely.
When the test test_curtin_help_has_hacked_version was first written,
the file .pyc file that was known to be created for
my_path/my.py was my_path/my.pyc
Newer versions of python (at least in cpython 3.6), create:
version/__pycache__/version.cpython-36.pyc
This updates the test to remote those pyc files also.
The failure to remove the .pyc file results in a race condition
where sometimes the .pyc file is seen as valid even though the
.py file was written after it.
