Greeting from Linaro ! We are running kvm-unit-tests on our CI Continuous Integration and testing on x86_64 and arm64 Juno-r2. Linux stable branches and Linux mainline and Linux next.
Few tests getting fail and skipped, we are interested in increasing the test coverage by adding required kernel config fragments, kernel command line arguments and user space tools.
Your help is much appreciated.
Here is the details of the LKFT kvm unit test logs,

I am going to comment on the arm64 tests. As far as I am aware, you don't need any kernel configs to run the tests.
Thanks for the confirmation on Kconfig part for arm64. The next question is, How to enable and run nested virtual testing ?
There's not support in KVM to run nested guests (yet [1]) and no support in kvm-unit-tests to run at EL2 (yet [2]) and no hardware that has supported for nested virtualization (yet).
[1] https://www.spinics.net/lists/arm-kernel/msg784744.html [2] https://www.spinics.net/lists/kvm/msg203527.html
From looking at the java log [1], I can point out a few things:
- The gicv3 tests are failing because Juno has a gicv2 and the kernel refuses to
create a virtual gicv3. It's normal.
Got it. Because of heterogeneous big.LITTLE CPU architecture of Juno device caused test hang and "taskset -c 0 ./run_tests.sh -a -v -t " solved this problem.
KVM doesn't normally care about big.little configurations, and kvm-unit-tests definitely doesn't do anything that is specific to a certain microarchitecture. I would say something else is wrong here. I'll try and reproduce it on my Juno when I get the time, but that might not happen until next week. Can you trigger this behaviour every run?
Yup
timers test is intermittent failure due to timeout on the CPU 0 which is configured as LITTLE cpu cortext a53. If i change test to run on big CPU then it always PASS. "taskset -c $BIG_CPU_ID ./run_tests.sh -a -v -t"
This might just be an unfortunate mix of events and kernel scheduling decisions for the VCPU thread that is causing an unexpected delay in receiving timer interrupts. Hard to know without a log.
- I am not familiar with the PMU test, so I cannot help you with that.
Where is the output from running the PMU test? I didn't see it in the link below.
It's toward the end, it just says that 2 tests failed:
If the test runner isn't capturing all the output of the tests somewhere, then it should. Naresh, is the pmu.log file somewhere?
For more detail I have shared LAVA log [1] and attached detail run output.

This when running the tests with taskset, right?

I think this is because you are running it on one physical CPU (it's exactly the same message I am getting when I use taskset to run the tests). Can you try and run it without taskset and see if it solves your issue?
Thanks, Alex
