Subject: [PATCH v2 0/6] ktest: support for Boot Loader Specification

From: Masayoshi Mizuma <m.mizuma@...fujitsu.com>

Fedora 30 introduces Boot Loader Specification (BLS) [1],
it changes around grub entry configuration.

This patch series deals with the new configuration.

- Add grub2bls option as REBOOT_TYPE to deal with BLS.
- Some cleanup around getting kernel entries.

To use ktest.pl to BLS environment,

- Set REBOOT_TYPE = grub2bls.
- Set POST_INSTALL to add the kernel entry like as follows.

  POST_INSTALL = ssh root@...t "/usr/bin/kernel-install add \
             $KERNEL_VERSION /boot/vmlinuz-$KERNEL_VERSION"

- Set POST_KTEST to remove the kernel entry (optional).

  POST_KTEST = ssh root@...t "/usr/bin/kernel-install remove $KERNEL_VERSION"
