Hey all,
One thing that Simon Glass has noted is that our pytest run time keeps
getting longer. Looking at:
https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/pipelines/25011/test_report?job_name=sandbox%20test.py%3A%20%5Bfast%20amd64%5D
we can see that some of the longest running tests are a little puzzling.
It turns out that we have two ways of making filesystem images without
requiring root access and one of them is significantly slower than the
other. This series changes us from using virt-make-fs to only using the
mk_fs helper that currently resides in test_ut.py which uses standard
userspace tools. The final result can be seen at:
https://source.denx.de/u-boot/u-boot/-/pipelines/25015/test_report?job_name=sandbox%20test.py%3A%20%5Bfast%20amd64%5D
and the tests changed here now run much quicker.
The changes in v2 are that this has been rebased on top of current
-next.
