Thomas Huth 6b591ad613 tests/prom-env: Enable the test for the sun4u machine, too
The 32-bit TCG bug has been fixed a while ago, so we can enable
this test for sparc64 now, too. Unfortunately, OpenBIOS does not
work with the sun4v machine anymore (it needs to catch up with the
improved emulation), so we can only enable this test for the sun4u
machine right now.

Thomas Huth 61eedf7aec tests/prom-env: Ease time-out problems on slow hosts
Peter Maydell recently ran into time-out problems with the
prom-env test on a rather slow ARM board. To tackle this issue,
we can speed up the test by running QEMU with "-nodefaults" for
the pseries machine, so that SLOF has less devices to scan during
boot, and by using the "nvramrc" environment variable instead of
"boot-command", since this variable is evaluated earlier in the
boot process.
And to be really sure that we do not face such time out problems
again, let's also increase the time out value from 100s to 120s
instead.

David Gibson 5368734881 tests: Add pseries machine to the prom-env-test, too
Now that we also support the "-prom-env" parameter for the pseries
machine, we can enable this test for this machine, too. Since booting
with TCG is rather slow with the pseries machine, we also enable
the "-nodefaults" parameter for this test now, so that SLOF does not
have to check that much devices during boot and thus runs a little
bit faster.

[dwg: Don't add -nodefaults to the command line, it causes extra warnings
 for the sparc testcases]

Marcel Apfelbaum eaf8d91cd7 tests/prom-env-test: increase the test timeout
On a slower machine the test can take more than 30 seconds.
Increase the timeout to 100 seconds.

Thomas Huth fcbf4a3c0c ppc / sparc: Add a tester for checking whether OpenBIOS runs successfully
Since the mac99 and g3beige PowerPC machines recently broke without
being noticed, it would be good to have a tester for "make check"
that detects such issues immediately. A simple way to test the firmware
of these machines is to use the "-prom-env" parameter of QEMU. This
parameter can be used to put some Forth code into the 'boot-command'
firmware variable which then can signal success to the tester by
writing a magic value to a known memory location. And since some of the
Sparc machines are also using OpenBIOS, they are now tested with this
prom-env-tester, too.
