This introduces a new feature to the functional tests: automatic setting of
the '-cpu VALUE' option to the created vm if the test is tagged with
'cpu:VALUE'. The 'cpu' property is made available to the test object as well.
For example, for a simple test as:
def test(self):
"""
:avocado: tags=cpu:host
"""
self.assertEqual(self.cpu, "host")
self.vm.launch()
So I tried a few tests with different CPU models and it works as
expected. One minor caveat is that using "host" has side effects
in some cases, causing tests to fail because they may also require
KVM to be enabled.
But this is a generic mechanism so I don't think it should be
concerned with that.
The resulting QEMU evocation will be like:
qemu-system-x86_64 -display none -vga none -chardev
socket,id=mon,path=/var/tmp/avo_qemu_sock_pdgzbgd_/qemu-1135557-monitor.sock
-mon chardev=mon,mode=control -cpu host
Only thing is: can we please just break this line (I could not ignore
a 174 character line :).
