Eelco Dolstra a5c433696c * Put all of /var/run (not just /var/run/nscd) on a tmpfs to simplify
shutdown.  (Portmap and statd are needed during shutdown to unmount
  NFS volumes but have open files in /var/run.)
* In the shutdown job, don't kill PIDs belonging to Upstart jobs that
  are still running.  If they don't stop on the "starting shutdown"
  event, then they're needed during shutdown (such as portmap and
  statd).
* NFS test: test whether the shutdown quickly unmounts NFS volumes
  (i.e. whether portmap and statd are still running).

Eelco Dolstra fa183e5472 * Expose networking.interfaces as an attribute set keyed on the
interface name through the derived option networking.ifaces.  This
  makes it easier to get information about specific interfaces
  (e.g. `nodes.router.config.networking.ifaces.eth2.ipAddress').
  Really networking.interfaces should be an attribute set.

Eelco Dolstra 3c7a6eb53c * Make the Bittorrent test more interesting by putting one client
behind a NAT router and verifying that another client can connect to
  it through the NAT (using a UPnP-IGD mapping created automatically
  by miniupnpd).

2010-05-20 23:07:21 +00:00
Eelco Dolstra 4dac9e5814 * Allow more complex network topologies in distributed tests. Each
machine can now declare an option `virtualisation.vlans' that causes
  it to have network interfaces connected to each listed virtual
  network.  For instance,

    virtualisation.vlans = [ 1 2 ];

  causes the machine to have two interfaces (in addition to eth0, used
  by the test driver to control the machine): eth1 connected to
  network 1 with IP address 192.168.1.<i>, and eth2 connected to
  network 2 with address 192.168.2.<i> (where <i> is the index of the
  machine in the `nodes' attribute set).  On the other hand,
  
    virtualisation.vlans = [ 2 ];

  causes the machine to only have an eth1 connected to network 2 with
  address 192.168.2.<i>.  So each virtual network <n> is assigned the
  IP range 192.168.<n>.0/24.

  Each virtual network is implemented using a separate multicast
  address on the host, so guests really cannot talk to networks to
  which they are not connected.

* Added a simple NAT test to demonstrate this.

* Added an option `virtualisation.qemu.options' to specify QEMU
  command-line options.  Used to factor out some commonality between
  the test driver script and the interactive test script.

Eelco Dolstra 1a0bb65901 * Added a regression test for whether the Nixpkgs channel works. This
is done by instantiating a webserver that simulates nixos.org.
  Using nix-push we create a channel that contains some stuff (namely
  the GNU Hello source tarball and the rlwrap program).  This was a
  bit tricky because nix-push requires a writable Nix store.  Using
  AUFS this is possible, but not on recent Linux kernels (AUFS1 over
  CIFS fails).

Eelco Dolstra a27680ea17 * Another distributed regression test, a network consisting of a Quake
3 server and two clients.  The clients connect to the server and do
  nothing (except getting blown by the bots).  After a few seconds we
  verify that the clients indeed connected successfully, and make a
  screenshot of the X displays of the clients.

Eelco Dolstra 27a8e656bc * Stuff for automatic and manual testing of NixOS VMs.
lib/build-vms.nix contains a function `buildVirtualNetwork' that
  takes a specification of a network of machines (as an attribute set
  of NixOS machine configurations) and builds a script that starts
  each configuration in a separate QEMU/KVM VM and connects them
  together in a virtual network.  This script can be run manually to
  test the VMs interactively.  There is also a function `runTests'
  that starts and runs the virtual network in a derivation, and
  then executes a test specification that tells the VMs to do certain
  things (i.e., letting one VM send an HTTP request to a webserver on
  another VM).  The tests are written in Perl (for now).

  tests/subversion.nix shows a simple example, namely a network of two
  machines: a webserver that runs the Subversion subservice, and a
  client.  Apache, Subversion and a few other packages are built with
  coverage analysis instrumentation.  For instance,

    $ nix-build tests/subversion.nix -A vms
    $ ./result/bin/run-vms

  starts two QEMU/KVM instances.  When they have finished booting, the
  webserver can be accessed from the host through
  http://localhost:8081/.

  It also has a small test suite:

    $ nix-build tests/subversion.nix -A report

  This runs the VMs in a derivation, runs the tests, and then produces
  a distributed code coverage analysis report (i.e. it shows the
  combined coverage on both machines).

  The Perl test driver program is in lib/test-driver.  It executes
  commands on the guest machines by connecting to a root shell running
  on port 514 (provided by modules/testing/test-instrumentation.nix).

  The VMs are connected together in a virtual network using QEMU's
  multicast feature.  This isn't very secure.  At the very least,
  other processes on the same machine can listen to or send packets on
  the virtual network.  On the plus side, we don't need to be root to
  set up a multicast virtual network, so we can do it from a
  derivation.  Maybe we can use VDE instead.
