The unit tests are tiny guest operating systems that generally execute only tens of lines of C and assembler test code in order to obtain its PASS/FAIL result. Unit tests provide KVM and virt hardware functional testing by targeting the features through minimal implementations of their use per the hardware specification. The simplicity of unit tests make them easy to verify they are correct, easy to maintain, and easy to use in timing measurements. Unit tests are also often used for quick and dirty bug reproducers. The reproducers may then be kept as regression tests. It's strongly encouraged that patches implementing new KVM features are submitted with accompanying unit tests. Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur <cyrilbur@gmail.com> [Thomas: - order architecture dependencies in Config.in alphabetically. - rewrap Config.in help text, lines were too long - add an empty line between the package description and the upstream project URL in the Config.in help text - don't make KVM_UNIT_TESTS_ARCH default to $(ARCH). This was not correct for i386 for example. Instead, just handle the few architectures that the package supports. - remove useless double quotes in variable definitions. - remove --prefix="$(TARGET_DIR)" from CONF_OPTS. It was installing everything in /share/ and not /usr/share/, and setting the prefix to TARGET_DIR at configure time is not good. Instead, pass DESTDIR at installation time.] Signed-off-by: Thomas Petazzoni <thomas.petazzoni@free-electrons.com> |

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded Linux systems through cross-compilation. The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text. Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following: 1) run 'make menuconfig' 2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile 3) run 'make' 4) wait while it compiles 5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot. Have fun! Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run 'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations. Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org You can also find us on #buildroot on Freenode IRC. If you would like to contribute patches, please read https://buildroot.org/manual.html#submitting-patches
