Since the mac99 and g3beige PowerPC machines recently broke without
being noticed, it would be good to have a tester for "make check"
that detects such issues immediately. A simple way to test the firmware
of these machines is to use the "-prom-env" parameter of QEMU. This
parameter can be used to put some Forth code into the 'boot-command'
firmware variable which then can signal success to the tester by
writing a magic value to a known memory location. And since some of the
Sparc machines are also using OpenBIOS, they are now tested with this
prom-env-tester, too.

I guess there's no way around waiting and an arbitrary time limit here.
30s is perhaps a bit long.  Dunno...

True. That's a copy-n-paste error from when I was creating the file
using another test as a template ;-)
I'll send a v2 with these lines removed.

Currently, the test takes 1 - 2 seconds on my idle laptop, and 4 to 6
seconds when I'm doing a lot of GCC compilation task in the background.
Now imagine somebody tries to run this test on a very old host machine
that is already loaded with a lot of other background tasks ... I guess
that could easily take more than 10 or even 20 seconds. So 30 seconds
should be a realistic value for a timeout here, I think.

Hi Thomas,

Thank you for doing this - such a great hack! I know it's not 100%
complete (for example one of the last regressions for SPARC64 was caused
by changes to the VGA VBE registers) but at least it will give people an
indication that nothing is fundamentally broken.


ATB,

Mark.
