Hey all,
Joza was kinda enough to let me have a go at part of the virtualization support: enabling 2-way communication between a virt-host and virt-guests and I'm starting to dig into it. Per his suggestion I'm working on a generic api that can be tuned based on the needs of the project and I wanted to bring it up to the list. A few initial thoughts from Joza regarding communication were:
Host->Guest - this needs to be able to select a certain virt guest
- Is a test actually running?
- Disconnect autotest-enabled eth
- run a command
Guest->Host
- Test finished
- Test crashed
- Test running too long
- Destructive test finished, revert me to 'safe' snapshot
He also noted a management interface on the server might be interesting and James noted that it will need to play nice with autotest.
I know this is a long-term goal, but I'd love to hear everyone's thoughts when time permits.
