Andy, what are you thinking are the big blockers for this with the
master image approach?
I've put together a rough idea for how this could work. The blueprint is:
<https://blueprints.launchpad.net/lava-dispatcher/+spec/black-box-test-actions>
However, the more interesting piece is the specification:
<https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/Validation/Specs/BlackBoxActions>
This still needs more thought and planning, but I think its something
concrete from which we can start a more targetted dialog.
I'm not sure describing partitions as "sdb2" and similar is really very
useful. We could use partition numbers, but that seems fragile -- maybe
just specifying "system" or "data" or whatever would be best.
I changed this as you suggested. Makes sense to me. Then we just do find
the partition via "/dev/disk/by-label/XXX"
Otherwise, well, it seems pretty easy really, assuming the android team
are willing to do whatever it takes to make the presence of
e.g. /etc/indicators/01-wifi Do Stuff on boot...
Zach - this is where we need your input to make sure you are okay with
the logic.
I guess one thing that seems a little weird about the proposal is that,
say, results_directory reads like an instruction to the dispatcher ("put
the results here") whereas it's really more of a description of how the
image behaves ("the results will end up in this directory, so please
look there!"). I'm not sure if this is anything more than the vaguest
of concerns though.
I'm open to any changes in wording
