buildbottest on Android emulator with docker
The following command runs the buildbottest on an Android emulator with docker (it will use a little bit more than 11 GB): $ docker run -it --privileged xdegaye/abifa:r14b-24-x86_64-master This command does: * pull an image from the Docker hub (only the first time that the command is run, note that this a 2 GB download !) and start a container * pull the latest changes from the GitHub cpython repository and cross-compile python * start an Android emulator and install python on it * run the buildbottest target of cpython Makefile The image is built from a Dockerfile [2]. This same image can also be used with the 'bash' command line argument to enter bash in the container and run python interactively on the emulator [1]. If the 'docker run' command also sets a bind mount to a local cpython repository, then it is possible to develop/debug/fix python on the emulator running in this container using one's own clone of cpython.

This is cool! Sadly, I don't have the bandwidth right now to play with
it. I may have a look later.

Nice, we could start to fix the Android issues with this docker image, maybe modified with the local repository but really useful. Thank you so much for your job. -- Stéphane Wirtel - https://wirtel.be - @matrixise

Is there a repository with a bug tracker because I would not want to pullute this ML with that.
Thank you,

I can reproduce this error after removing the kvm kernel modules (I am on ArchLinux and ArchLinux kernels provide the required kernel modules to support KVM virtualization). So my fault, forgot to explain that kvm is required to run this docker image, kvm is not required though when the docker image is built for other architectures (non x86_64), but it is very very slow then. To fix the problem one must install the Linux distribution packages that provide KVM virtualization. Whatever the Linux distribution it may also be necessary to enable virtualization support in the BIOS. I will enter an issue and update the documentation at https://gitlab.com/xdegaye/abifa. Thanks Stephane for the report. Xavier On 2/19/19 4:52 PM, Stephane Wirtel wrote:
