From e1a6c3d748ef0ee093e764af3fdd0c1a5cd2b664 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Steven Rostedt Date: Tue, 11 Dec 2012 21:19:41 -0500 Subject: ktest: Test if target machine is up before install Sometimes a test kernel will crash or hang on reboot (this is even more apparent when testing a config without CGROUPS on a box running systemd). When this happens, on the next iteration of installing a kernel, ktest will fail when it tries to install. Have ktest do a check to see if the target can be connected to via ssh before it tries to install. If it can't connect, then reboot again. This time the reboot will fail because it can't connect and will force a power cycle.
