[PATCH 0/7] tests: Always fake root directory

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When mocking filesystem access in the test suite, we have always
assumed it to be some subdirectory of /sys depending on the needs
of the specific test case.

This limits our flexibility, and will be a problem once we need
to start mocking eg. /dev as well, or simply two different parts
of the /sys filesystem at the same time[1].

Solve the issue by always using the temporary directory as the
root directory for the mocked filesystem.

The series is organized as follows:

  1-2: Tiny cleanups
  3-4: Change the mock libraries so that they build the proper
       directory structure
    5: Change the name of the environment variable used to pass
       the temporary directory name to the mock libraries
    6: Make it so we'll be able to mock different parts of the
       /sys filesystem at the same time
    7: Update scsihosttest to use the same directory structure

Cheers.

    is an example of why we would need to do that

Andrea Bolognani (7):
  tests: scsihost: Don't set LIBVIRT_FAKE_SYSFS_DIR
  tests: pcimock: Remove check for fakesysfsdir
  tests: pcimock: Use the temporary directory as fake root
  tests: cgroupmock: Use the temporary directory as fake root
  tests: Rename LIBVIRT_FAKE_SYSFS_DIR to LIBVIRT_FAKE_ROOT_DIR
  tests: Use more specific names for variables
  tests: scsihost: Use fakerootdir instead of fakesysfsdir
