Julien Olivain 6ced53de5f support/testing: disable tests using edk2 on aarch64 architecture
EDK2 version edk2-stable202405 (not yet in Buildroot) has dependencies
on specific Qemu version.

Buildroot guidelines also recommend that "each patch must be complete".
See: [1]. This means, a patch in a series is not allowed to break
something knowingly, even in the same patch series. This rule is
mainly for using git bisect.

We also want to avoid bumping EDK2, update the runtime test infra,
and few tests in a big single commit, for readability. This would mix
too many changes in the same commit.

As a trade off, this commit disables the runtime tests which are known
to be broken by the upcoming edk2 update. Then, those tests will be
individually fixed and re-enabled in followup commits.

This EDK2/Qemu incompatibility only affects runtime tests using EDK2
on the Arm Aarch64 architecture. This commit disable the runtime
tests by adding a "skipTest()" call in:
- tests.boot.test_edk2
- tests.boot.test_grub.TestGrubAArch64EFI
- tests.package.test_fwts

Buildroot is a simple, efficient and easy-to-use tool to generate embedded
Linux systems through cross-compilation.

The documentation can be found in docs/manual. You can generate a text
document with 'make manual-text' and read output/docs/manual/manual.text.
Online documentation can be found at http://buildroot.org/docs.html

To build and use the buildroot stuff, do the following:

1) run 'make menuconfig'
2) select the target architecture and the packages you wish to compile
3) run 'make'
4) wait while it compiles
5) find the kernel, bootloader, root filesystem, etc. in output/images

You do not need to be root to build or run buildroot.  Have fun!

Buildroot comes with a basic configuration for a number of boards. Run
'make list-defconfigs' to view the list of provided configurations.

Please feed suggestions, bug reports, insults, and bribes back to the
buildroot mailing list: buildroot@buildroot.org
You can also find us on #buildroot on OFTC IRC.
