-# Welcome to kvm-unit-tests
-
-See http://www.linux-kvm.org/page/KVM-unit-tests for a high-level
-description of this project, as well as running tests and adding
-tests HOWTOs.
-
-# Building the tests
-
-This directory contains sources for a KVM test suite.
-
-To create the test images do:
-
-    ./configure
-    make
-
-in this directory.  Test images are created in ./ARCH/\*.flat
-
-NOTE: GCC cross-compiler is required for [build on macOS](README.macOS.md).
-
-## Standalone tests
-
-The tests can be built as standalone.  To create and use standalone tests do:
-
-    ./configure
-    make standalone
-    (send tests/some-test somewhere)
-    (go to somewhere)
-    ./some-test
-
-`make install` will install all tests in PREFIX/share/kvm-unit-tests/tests,
-each as a standalone test.
-
-
-# Running the tests
-
-Then use the runner script to detect the correct invocation and
-invoke the test:
-
-    ./x86-run ./x86/msr.flat
-or:
-
-    ./run_tests.sh
-
-to run them all.
-
-By default the runner script searches for a suitable QEMU binary in the system.
-To select a specific QEMU binary though, specify the QEMU=path/to/binary
-environment variable:
-
-    QEMU=/tmp/qemu/x86_64-softmmu/qemu-system-x86_64 ./x86-run ./x86/msr.flat
-
-To select an accelerator, for example "kvm", "hvf" or "tcg", specify the
-ACCEL=name environment variable:
-
-    ACCEL=kvm ./x86-run ./x86/msr.flat
-
-# Tests configuration file
-
-The test case may need specific runtime configurations, for
-example, extra QEMU parameters and time to execute limited, the
-runner script reads those information from a configuration file found
-at ./ARCH/unittests.cfg.
-
-The configuration file also contain the groups (if any) each test belong
-to.  So that a given group can be executed by specifying its name in the
-runner's -g option.
-
-# Unit test inputs
-
-Unit tests use QEMU's '-append args...' parameter for command line
-inputs, i.e. all args will be available as argv strings in main().
-Additionally a file of the form
-
-    KEY=VAL
-    KEY2=VAL
-    ...
-
-may be passed with '-initrd file' to become the unit test's environ,
-which can then be accessed in the usual ways, e.g. VAL = getenv("KEY").
-Any key=val strings can be passed, but some have reserved meanings in
-the framework.  The list of reserved environment variables is below
-
-    QEMU_ACCEL                   either kvm, hvf or tcg
-    QEMU_VERSION_STRING          string of the form `qemu -h | head -1`
-    KERNEL_VERSION_STRING        string of the form `uname -r`
-
-Additionally these self-explanatory variables are reserved
-
-    QEMU_MAJOR, QEMU_MINOR, QEMU_MICRO, KERNEL_VERSION, KERNEL_PATCHLEVEL,
-    KERNEL_SUBLEVEL, KERNEL_EXTRAVERSION
-
-# Guarding unsafe tests
-
-Some tests are not safe to run by default, as they may crash the
-host. kvm-unit-tests provides two ways to handle tests like those.
-
- 1) Adding 'nodefault' to the groups field for the unit test in the
-    unittests.cfg file.  When a unit test is in the nodefault group
-    it is only run when invoked
-
-     a) independently, `ARCH-run ARCH/test`
-
-     b) by specifying any other non-nodefault group it is in,
-        groups = nodefault,mygroup : `./run_tests.sh -g mygroup`
-
-     c) by specifying all tests should be run, `./run_tests.sh -a`
-
- 2) Making the test conditional on errata in the code,
-    ```
-    if (ERRATA(abcdef012345)) {
-        do_unsafe_test();
-    }
-    ```
-
-    With the errata condition the unsafe unit test is only run
-    when
-
-    a) the ERRATA_abcdef012345 environment variable is provided and 'y'
-
-    b) the ERRATA_FORCE environment variable is provided and 'y'
-
-    c) by specifying all tests should be run, `./run_tests.sh -a`
-       (The -a switch ensures the ERRATA_FORCE is provided and set
-        to 'y'.)
-
-The ./errata.txt file provides a mapping of the commits needed by errata
-conditionals to their respective minimum kernel versions.  By default,
-when the user does not provide an environ, then an environ generated
-from the ./errata.txt file and the host's kernel version is provided to
-all unit tests.

-## Directory structure
-
-    .:                  configure script, top-level Makefile, and run_tests.sh
-    ./scripts:          helper scripts for building and running tests
-    ./lib:              general architecture neutral services for the tests
-    ./lib/<ARCH>:       architecture dependent services for the tests
-    ./<ARCH>:           the sources of the tests and the created objects/images
-
-See ./ARCH/README for architecture specific documentation.
-
-## Style
-
-Currently there is a mix of indentation styles so any changes to
-existing files should be consistent with the existing style.  For new
-files:
-
-  - C: please use standard linux-with-tabs, see Linux kernel
-    doc Documentation/process/coding-style.rst
-  - Shell: use TABs for indentation
-
-Exceptions:
-
-  - While the kernel standard requires 80 columns, we allow up to 120.
-
-## Patches
-
-Patches are welcome at the KVM mailing list <kvm@vger.kernel.org>.
-
-Please prefix messages with: [kvm-unit-tests PATCH]
-
-You can add the following to .git/config to do this automatically for you:
-
-    [format]
-        subjectprefix = kvm-unit-tests PATCH
-
-Additionally it's helpful to have a common order of file types in patches.
-Our chosen order attempts to place the more declarative files before
-the code files.  We also start with common code and finish with unit test
-code. git-diff's orderFile feature allows us to specify the order in a
-file.  The orderFile we use is `scripts/git.difforder`; adding the config
-with `git config diff.orderFile scripts/git.difforder` enables it.
