Github hosted "ubuntu-latest" x86-64 runners have enough resources (KVM, 4 cores, 16G RAM, 14 GB SSD) to build and run mainline kernel + xfstests in a nested VM. This script uses rapido rapido-linux/rapido#258 as a minimal initramfs generator and thin wrapper around QEMU. For simplicity it'd likely make sense to branch it under the btrfs namespace. The test VM currently uses btrfs-progs from the ubuntu-24.04 host system. This could also be changed to a source-compiled version. TEST and SCRATCH devices are backed by 8G zstd compressed qcow2 images. Signed-off-by: David Disseldorp <ddiss@suse.de>

Raising this as a draft in case there's interest in having the GH hosted VMs perform fstests quick group runs on PR here. I discussed it briefly with @kdave and he mentioned that it may be worth having alongside the self-hosted runners. It doesn't belong in |
