[Xen-devel] [PATCH OSSTEST v4 00/21] Initial support for ARM64

[Ian Campbell <ian.campbell@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The following adds support for testing on arm64 systems.

Since arm64 was only added in Debian Jessie this requires Wei's "Debian
Jessie patches" as a base line, which are currently in osstest. This is
therefore based on those, specifically 6e37f849f4b0.

I've addressed the issues raised last time and dropped the VMEMMMAP hack
since it is now understood. I retained acks on the two mg-* changes
despite folding everything into mgi-common as well as the "die on !
jessie" change to the UEFI boot order bodge, since all that seemed minor
enough, I hope that's ok:

AM      mg-*: Add mgi-common with fetch and fail helpers
AM      mg-*: Make Debian package fetching common in mgi-common
AM      Introduce mg-pxe-loader-update
A       Debian: Preseed a EFI system partition during host install
A       ts-host-install: Split initrd out of @installcmdline
A       ts-host-install: split the "di" from the "host" command line
A       Refactor pxelinux configuration
AM      ts-host-install: Support UEFI PXE boot using grub.efi
A       Enable chain loading to local disk for UEFI PXE systems.
A       Add arm64 build and test jobs
A       ts-kernel-build: Additional kernel options for Mustang
A       ts-kernel-build: Enable CONFIG_EFI_VARS
A       ts-host-install: Set dtbs in the non-special kernel case too.
AM      Debian: Do not add Debian to UEFI boot order on install
A       standalone: Prefer ./local-config to $HOME/.xen-osstest/config
A       Debian: grub2: Log full line range of menuentry and submenu entries
A       Debian: grub2: Use GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX_XEN_REPLACE(_DEFAULT)
A       Collect xen.efi into xendist and install in appropriate place
A       Debian: Ignore xen-syms entries in grub.cfg.
A       Debian: Collect kernel command line from grub.cfg
 M      Debian: Arrange to be able to chainload a xen.efi from grub2

A -- Acked
M -- Modified

That's all bar the final patch acked I think. However we haven't yet got
any hardware and this is dependent on a switch to Jessie for tests. I
support we don't want to just take this directly and let the tests be
failing ts-host-allocate since that will just add noise to the reports.
I could put this to one side and rebase once h/w shows up, or I could
tweak mfi-common to omit arm64 from (BUILD|TEST)_ARCHES for now and we
could apply it.

Ian.
