It don't happens for master branch at the time.  It only happens with my
changes.

But the change previous to that one runs well.  That one always fails in
the block layer.  And the changes on that "series" were only for
migration-test.c, so it shouldn't break any other tests.  No other files
are touched.

Yes, in the PULL request more files are touched, but the tests I was
doing on CI there weren't.

I have no clue what gcov is adding to those tests really (I know what
gcov is, not what gcov is trying to do on that test.)

No.  make check with all architectures under the sun works as expected.

I have learn my lesson here, and know I have to terminals open.  One
compiles x86_64 natively and test natively.

The other compiles aarch64 and test it using TCG.

(I do more tests, but that is run after each patch got reviewed and
integrated for the PULL request)

It could.  But I am not changing that.  I am only changing
migration-test.c.

As Daniel answered on list, problably it is just a race that changing
timing makes it more probable.

Later, juan.
