Maybe you mean this one which is older: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/topic/89289917 And here is a more recent discussion related to my patches: https://lists.openembedded.org/g/openembedded-core/topic/102708283#190925 > > Have you had success with non-trivial test suites managed by > cmake/meson where the tooling invokes qemu directly?

Running the tests is also transparently supported by IDEs with support for cmake and meson (because cmake and meson integrate qemu). Debugging doesn't work yet, but as far as I know qemu-usermode would also provide a gdbstub, which would at least theoretically allow seamless debugger integration. Especially for the SDK use case with IDE integration I see some potential in this approach. It allows to develop some unit tests on the host and finally test and deploy the application and the test binaries on the remote target device. At least in theory, this could hide the additional complexity of Cross as much as possible. However, since there are some corner cases where it does not work, it is fully optionally integrated. cmake recipes that are known to benefit from qemu-usermode and work reliably with it can inherit cmake-qemu instead of cmake. Also the new oe-selftests can be seen as tests for qemu-usermode, which is a dependency of the kernel anyway and should therefore be tested somehow. My intention is to introduce this feature in a very limited scope, at least in this first step. Adrian > Ross
