build-lxd: allow specifying the temp instance name from the environment
commit 1ba6a4426e21371b387460584c854d56ba15bd98
Author: Paride Legovini <paride@debian.org>
Date: Thu Mar 5 10:11:39 2026 +0100
build-lxd: more renaming from "container" to "instance"
Instances can be VMs or containers. Let's refer to them as "instances"
in the script. The usage of "container" dates back to when LXD only
supported containers.
commit 61b1070561020c730e3b0236a6083f5d7a19c6d7
Author: Paride Legovini <paride@debian.org>
Date: Thu Mar 5 10:07:15 2026 +0100
build-lxd: rename CONTAINER to AUTOPKGTEST_TEMP_INSTANCE
Instances can be containers of VMs, so CONTAINER was not a fully
appropriate name. This is preparatory work for making the variable
overrideable from the environment, so we need a good name for it.

build-lxd: wait more for instances to boot
Those timeout are mostly meant to prevent "stuck forever" jobs.
We can afford being quite related with them.

commit 2c36f797af3076400523d3d49459e0040f8555a7

Move gathering of testbed CPU info from setup to open stage
Move the "get CPU info" code from the setup from post_boot_setup()
to _open(), as it is not a testbed setup step.

autopkgtest-virt-lxd: ignore stderr from `[...] image info`
When incus is used by the very first time, it will print a message to
stderr that will cause this call to fail. I'm not sure whether this
affects lxd, but in any case, the stdout of `lxc image info $IMAGE`
is already enough to test what that code is testing.

CI: suppress lintian warning on usage of skip-not-installable
See merge request ci-team/autopkgtest!644
commit cbcb2092c60e81cbf5449b6e4559376249ea6676
Author: Paride Legovini <paride@debian.org>

CI: suppress lintian warning on usage of skip-not-installable
We run the Salsa CI pipeline so SALSA_CI_LINTIAN_FAIL_WARNING
enabled, so the tag causes the pipeline to fail. Suppress the
tag for now.
We currently use skip-not-installable to allow the LXD tests
(d/t/lxd) to be skipped on Debian, where lxd is not readily
available, without extra test runtime logic.
I want to drop that usage skip-not-installable, but doing so
requires some discussion on how move away from the current logic.
For now, this change will allow CI to pass again.

skip-not-installable restriction.

doc: explain a common mistake in the architecture field
commit 654da95f04aaaa4e659ddcfbf55d9cac0afa53bc

Always revert testbed before running individual tests
Do not try to be smart and reuse the testbed for different tests. If
possible, run each test in a pristine testbed. Reusing the testbed can
speed up running tests, but we want to prioritize consistency of the
test execution and principle of least surprise [1] over optimizing test
runs.
Autopkgtest will still allow running tests on a dirty testbed if the
virt server does not have the revert capability.
Packages heavily relying on testbed reuse (see e.g. #1063533) should
consider merging tests, and have individual tests produce useful output.
The new simplified logic allows some renaming (e.g. deps_new -> deps)
that will hopefully make the code easier to read.
Tests are added for the new logic.
