Partial revert of 23469bbe3b. When running tests in a GitHub action,
we do not want to run as host root user. Therefore, restore podman as
the default runner, but make sure to prefer docker when attaching to
the host network namespace.
When testing in the host's namespace, only docker seems to offer the
required capabilities (due to its daemon/client architecture).
Qeneth tests can still be run in podman. Users will have to install
the docker wrappers for podman to make use of this.
As of 4768cae6, we can use conserver/telnet to connect to the docker0
bridge IP:90XX, where XX is DUTXX. This was a great UX improvement
and this patch set aims to further the experience by:
- allow running Infamy (infix-test container) completely rootless¹
- reduce the expsed port range 50->10 (can be improved further)
- use 'podman --publish-all' ports, which allocates ten random
ports for the exposed Qemu telnet ports
- add Quick Start Guide to doc/testing.md
This restores the possiblity of running multiple "make test-sh"
instances, e.g., when multiple users share the same server.
The 'console' script included in this commit uses 'podman inspect' to
find the port number for a given DUT, and optional instance. It takes
either the console/dut number (1-N), or the dut name from the topology.
Also in this commit:
- set hostname for easy identification (for console script)
- set conatainer --name to hostname
- adjust workdir from buildroot to infix/test
- simplify PS1 and add time to prompt (when did the test finish?)
When running 'make test-sh' the prompt now tells you which instance you
are running, e.g., infmay10. Calling 'console 1 infamy10' connects to
console 1 (port 9001) on the infamy10 instance.
For more information, see the Quick Start Guide in doc/testing.md. It
shows how to use the new helper scripts: console and shell.
Fix#227
_______
¹) devs using podman, instead of docker, with slirp4netns installed, can
run the infix-test container completely rootless. We like this, and
as of today podman is our recommendation.
