This allows test-runner to run inside a UML binary which has some
advantages, specifically time-travel/infinite CPU speed. This should
fix any scheduler related failures we have on slower systems.
Currently this runner does not suppor the same features as the Qemu
runner, specifically:
- No hardware passthrough
- No logging/monitor (UML -> host mounting isn't implemented yet)
This (as well as subsequent commits) will separate test-runner into two
parts:
1. Environment setup
2. Running tests
Spurred by interest in adding UML/host support, test-runner was in need
of a refactor to separate out the environment setup and actually running
the tests.
The environment (currently only Qemu) requires quite a bit of special
handling (ctypes mounting/reboot, 9p mounts, tons of kernel options etc)
which nobody writing tests should need to see or care about. This has all
been moved into 'runner.py'.
Running the tests (inside test-runner) won't change much.
The new 'runner.py' module adds an abstraction class which allows different
Runner's to be implemented, and setup their own environment as they see
fit. This is in preparation for UML and Host runners.
