uefi-test-runner

This package is a UEFI application for running tests. It is intended to be run in a specially-configured QEMU VM. This allows us to test the parts of the uefi package that depend on a UEFI environment, such as various boot services and protocols.

Requirements

• QEMU: the most recent version of QEMU is recommended.
• Python 3: at least version 3.6 is required.
• OVMF: You need to extract the firmware files into the uefi-test-runner directory.
  • For x86_64: OVMF_CODE.fd and OVMF_VARS.fd
  • For AArch64: QEMU_EFI-pflash.raw and vars-template-pflash.raw Alternatively, install OVMF using your distro's package manager and change the paths in the script file. Note: if your distro's OVMF version is too old / does not provide these files, you can download Gerd Hoffmann's builds and extract them in the local directory.

Build and run in QEMU

Use cargo xtask run to build uefi-test-runner and run it in QEMU. See the top-level README for more details of cargo xtask.
