Hello Christian,
To begin with, OpenVZ is 95% platform-independent that makes porting
quite easy. We have already ported to POWER, although we don't have
access to POWER hardware at the moment :(
So I will test it in a few days ;-)
Good.
As for the testing, aside from basic functionality, we usually run VE
start/stop test -- the idea is to have many VEs starting and stopping in
parallel -- trying to catch some locking bugs etc. Unfortunately we do
not have any tests open sourced, but we will definitely want to help
testing as well.
I did some Kernel System Call Tests of the LTP-20070430 (
http://ltp.sourceforge.net) inside a VE. 20 Tests failed but more then 700
passed. Most of the failed ones had to do with Swap space and Setting time.
This is unavailable inside a VE, right?
Right, some hardware-dependent functionality is naturally not available
in VE. So, each fail has to be checked and examined -- is that a fail or
this test have to be removed (or reworked).
Still, in case of setting system time -- if you grant a VE a sys_time
capability (vzctl set NNN --capability sys_time:on --save) you'll be
able to set system time from inside a VE.
Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best Regards
