We add a default test setup that excludes the integration-tests suite
so that the integration tests don't run by default. This allows us to
get rid of $SYSTEMD_INTEGRATION_TESTS. Then, we add two extra setups:
'integration' and 'shell'. The 'integration' setup does not exclude the
integration-tests suite, and so can be used to run the integration tests.
The 'shell' setup does the same, but additionally sets $TEST_SHELL=1,
allowing to get rid of $TEST_SHELL in the docs.
If the integration tests have been installed in the systemd-tests
package, the path to these in mkosi.postinst.chroot will be wrong.
Let's fix the issue by moving these files into the mkosi/ directory
as they're only used by mkosi regardless so they make more sense to
be there anyway.
Instead of always looking up two directories from the
test/integration-tests/meson.build file, let's search in up to 4
parent directories from the given meson project source root. This
allows us to just pass in meson.project_source_root() to
integration-test-wrapper.py instead of having to pass in a fixed
relative offset from the current meson file.
It'll also allow us to install the integration tests and mkosi
configuration in the future without breaking the standalone
integrationt tests functionality;
Now that mkosi can automatically pick up its main configuration from
a mkosi/ subdirectory if it exists and there is no configuration in the
top level directory, let's make use of it to reduce the amount of clutter
in the top level directory of the repository.
This will also make it easier to install the mkosi configuration files as
part of the testing packages later on.
The test skips at runtime on the same condition, but that's already too late
as it often gets stuck on boot in Debian/Ubuntu. Check in the meson
condition directly so that it's not even started.
This allows us to use the regular settings instead of having to bother
with ToolsTreeXXX variants. It'll also allow us to share configuration
between the regular images and the tools tree image, which we'll make
use of in the next commit.
Instead of listing dependencies manually for the default tools tree,
let's reuse the prepare scripts from the build image. To make this work,
the sync script has to be configured for the tools tree as well so that
it's invoked both when building the tools tree and for the regular
image,
otherwise, when doing the first build in a fresh checkout, the sync
script
won't have executed yet as sync scripts for the regular images are
executed
after building the default tools tree.
With meson 1.7.0, meson won't rebuild the world anymore when running
meson test so since meson 1.7.0 is in tumbleweed, debian testing, fedora
rawhide and Arch Linux, drop --no-rebuild from the docs since all the default
tools trees built by mkosi in the systemd repo will have meson 1.7.0 or newer
installed.
We keep --no-rebuild in CI because in CI we run with the same tools tree
distribution as the target distribution we're building and in those it's not
guaranteed for meson 1.7.0 to be available yet.
The advantage of dropping --no-rebuild is that meson will now reconfigure itself
if needed, which is required if we change or move around meson files, as otherwise
meson tends to explode spectacularly in hard to debug ways.

Instead of not creating the test at all, let's always create test but
simply mark them as skipped as this is more observable than simply not
creating the test at all.
This test only works if the image was built as root. Since that's
impossible to check as meson generally runs before we build the image,
let's use whether meson is run as root as a proxy.
If we don't need an initrd, let's not waste time in one. We have to
gate this by distributions that have the necessary kernel modules to
make this work as builtin modules, hopefully we can expand the list in
the future.
This is a required first step before testing and it's not specifically
mentioned in the doc. This tripped me up for a while, so let's save the
trouble for the next person.
Currently, to run the integration tests, it's still necessary to
install various other build tools besides meson: A compiler, gperf,
libcap, ... which we want to avoid in CI systems where we receive
prebuilt systemd packages and only want to test them. Examples are
Debian's autopkgtest CI and Fedora CI. Let's make it possible for
these systems to run the integration tests without having to install
any other build dependency besides meson by extracting the logic
required to run the integration tests with meson into a separate
subdirectory and adding a standalone top-level meson.build file which
can be used to configure a meson tree with as its only purpose running
the integration tests.
Practically, we do the following:
- all the integration test directories and integration-test-wrapper.py
are moved from test/ to test/integration-test/.
- All the installation logic is kept out of test/integration-test/ or
any of its subdirectories and moved into test/meson.build instead.
- We add test/integration-test/standalone/meson.build to run the
integration tests standalone. This meson file includes
test/integration-test via a cute symlink hack to trick meson into
including a parent directory with subdir().
- Documentation is included on how to use the new standalone mode.
- TEST-64-UDEV-STORAGE and TEST-85-NETWORK are changed to generate separate
units for each testcase to make them behave more like the other integration
tests.
