Public bug reported: When running autopkgtests one is located at the top of the unpacked debian source tree. There is no location given as to where that is, in an environment variable, but it is trivial to cache it. Also, one is supposed to use AUTOPKGTEST_TMP directory for most of the disk space. Currently linux ubuntu_kernel_selftests clones linux git tree, instead of using the locally unpacked tree instead. Here is proposal to fix this.
In git clone git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/kernel-testing In run-dep8-tests do something like this: if [ -n "$AUTOPKGTEST_TMP" ]; then export ADT_LINUX_TREE=`pwd` cd $AUTOPKGTEST_TMP fi Then in git://kernel.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/autotest-client-tests, ubuntu_kernel_selftests/ubuntu_kernel_selftests.py in the setup() function add code to use ADT_LINUX_TREE if set in the envrionment, similar to how ~/ubuntu/ubuntu-%s is used. I'm not sure if symlink will do there, or if one needs to do `cp -a $ADT_LINUX_TREE linux` or some such. Alternatively, I guess debian/tests/ubuntu-regression-suite could initialize a git repo out of PWD and clone it into ~/ubuntu/ubuntu-%s to trick autotest-client-tests into using that later.
