I confirm the workaround works for me, when adding "-fw_cfg
name=opt/org.tianocore/X-Cpuhp-Bugcheck-Override,string=yes"
in qemu opts.
We could indeed use it as is for now.

Having those quirks here and there in tests will make future updates
of the docker image even more difficult. Ideally, we need some way to
track them for later cleanups. For smooth(er) updates, it would be
also good to have the test not failing before and after the update. By
"not failing", I also mean it could also be skipped.
This could be done by exposing the emulator version, and reporting some
test message (for ex, in support/testing/infra/emulator.py).
We could have somewhere in the test in question, or in a base class:
(untested pseudo pythoncode)
def qemu_has_cpuhp_bug(self):
v = self.emulator.get_version()
return v[0] < 7 or (v[0] = 7 and v < (7, 2, 1))
if self.qemu_has_cpuhp_bug():
self.show_msg("Warning: applying QEmu CPUHP workaround")
emulator_args += "-fw_cfg ..."
elif self.running_in_br_docker_image():
self.show_msg("Info: test workaround code no longer needed")
In some other corner cases, we could just skip the test:
if qemu_has_cpuhp_bug():
msg = "Unsupported emulator version"
self.show_msg("Skipping test: " + msg)
self.skipTest(msg)
I think it would be good to keep the test suite working with the qemu
version in the docker image AND the host-qemu in Buildroot (which the
one used in _defconfigs, and is supposed to be near the latest
released version).
What do you think?
