Hmmm, I'm not so sure about that. I certainly don't subscribe to TDD,
when you first write up the test case, and then add implementation to
satisfy the tests.

I don't have much experience / history with the tests subdir. Briefly
reviewing what I've done there (git log --author=lersek), I think I
would either keep the test patches entirely separate from the QEMU code
patches (thus there wouldn't be a patch modifying *.c files both under
and outside of tests/). Or else, I would actually prefer tests/*.c to
come later in the same patch. The tests are frequently written to
provide good coverage for the actual QEMU code, so seeing the QEMU code
first seems preferable. (The corner cases to cover could be completely
arbitrary, originating from quirks of POSIX functions, and so on.)

Thanks
Laszlo
