The live tests so far ran VMs without an OS, so everything that needs the
guest's cooperation was untested. With TEST_LIBVIRT_GUEST_IMAGE set to an
installed Linux image with qemu-guest-agent, instances/test_live_guest.py
boots wvc-test VMs from qcow2 overlays of it (the image is only read) and
checks through the web views:
- delete_vol on a running VM: the guest releases the disk, so it leaves
the live and persistent definitions and the volume is deleted;
- detach_vol removes the disk from the running guest and keeps the volume;
- add_network/delete_network: the guest sees the hotplugged NIC, and the
unplug completes in both definitions;
- set_vcpu brings a hotplugged vCPU online in the guest;
- osinfo returns the guest agent's OS, time zone and host name, and the
agent reports the VM's NIC by MAC;
- poweroff shuts the guest down through libvirt.
The image must be a BIOS-bootable qcow2 volume in a storage pool other
than wvc-test; the tests are skipped while a running VM uses it. They pass
against a Rocky Linux 9 guest on a RHEL qemu-kvm host; the guest had no
address on the NAT network (its network configuration is static), so only
the agent's NIC report is checked, not an address.
