Jobs based on custom runners: add CentOS Stream 8 This introduces three different parts of a job designed to run on a custom runner managed by Red Hat. The goals include: a) propose a model for other organizations that want to onboard their own runners, with their specific platforms, build configuration and tests. b) bring awareness to the differences between upstream QEMU and the version available under CentOS Stream, which is "A preview of upcoming Red Hat Enterprise Linux minor and major releases". c) because of b), it should be easier to identify and reduce the gap between Red Hat's downstream and upstream QEMU. The components of this custom job are: I) OS build environment setup code: - additions to the existing "build-environment.yml" playbook that can be used to set up CentOS/EL 8 systems. - a CentOS Stream 8 specific "build-environment.yml" playbook that adds to the generic one. II) QEMU build configuration: a script that will produce binaries with features as similar as possible to the ones built and packaged on CentOS stream 8. III) Scripts that define the minimum amount of testing that the binaries built with the given configuration (point II) under the given OS build environment (point I) should be subjected to. IV) Job definition: GitLab CI jobs that will dispatch the build/test jobs (see points #II and #III) to the machine specifically configured according to #I.

This directory contains scripts for generating a build of QEMU that
closely matches the CentOS Stream[1] builds of the qemu-kvm package.
To have the environment ready to configure, build QEMU and run tests,
please start with a CentOS Stream machine and:
* apply the generic "build-environment.yml" playbook located at
scripts/ci/setup
* apply the "build-environment.yml" in the directory following the
CentOS Stream version (such as "8").
This currently only covers CentOS Stream 8 environments and
packages[2].
