Thanks Lucas.

There are two things:
1. Should I use autotest-xxx or autotest-client-xxx, currently I am trying
to use autotest-client-xxx.
autotest-client does everyting (i.e download -> build -> run -> log result)
on target itself since we do not have a ARM toolchain that execute on ARM
target itself, we are modifying the control files so that we can build test
jobs in X86 host using ARM toolchain and copy them to ARM target only to run
and log result.
  I guess autotest-xxx does this automatically i.e download + build on
host.......and run + log result on target. If my gut feeling is correct then
I should move to autotest-xxx.

2. Currently autotest-xxx support only x86, powerpc are there any available
patches to use autotest on ARM.
