[Xen-devel] [PATCH RFC 0/4] osstest: add native FreeBSD build tests

[Roger Pau Monne <roger.pau@xxxxxxxxxx>]

This series add support for bootstrapping a bare metal FreeBSD install 
using OSS Test and compiling Xen on it (only the kernel and the tools 
so far).

The first patch adds support for executing commands on remote boxes 
using ssh with password, which is needed in order to login into the 
installer. The rest of the patches focus on installing FreeBSD, the 
Xen build dependencies, and finally compiling the Xen kernel and 
tools.

This is a very RFC series, some of the code should use runvars and 
host vars instead of the hardcoded variables on top of the file. I've 
marked this with "TODO".

Also, there's some code duplication in ts-xen-build-freebsd from 
ts-xen-build, but I don't think both files can be merged easily.

I've been manually running the tests using the following runes:

OSSTEST_FLIGHT=standalone OSSTEST_JOB=build-amd64 OSSTEST_HOST=kodo4 
./ts-freebsd-host-install host=kodo4
OSSTEST_FLIGHT=standalone OSSTEST_JOB=build-amd64 OSSTEST_HOST=kodo4 
./ts-xen-build-prep-freebsd host=kodo4
OSSTEST_FLIGHT=standalone OSSTEST_JOB=build-amd64 OSSTEST_HOST=kodo4 
./ts-xen-build-freebsd host=kodo4
