tests/avocado: raspi2_initrd: Wait for guest shutdown message before stopping
The avocado test
tests/avocado/boot_linux_console.py:BootLinuxConsole.test_arm_raspi2_initrd
finishes with
exec_command(self, 'halt')
# Wait for VM to shut down gracefully
self.vm.wait()
In theory this should be fine. In practice it runs into two bugs:
* when the test calls self.vm.wait() Avocado closes the socket
connection to the guest serial console immediately, so the
avocado logs don't have the last part of the guest output:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1265
* when the socket is closed, a bug in the QEMU socket chardev
means that it loses any data that the guest UART has not
yet consumed. This means that the guest doesn't always read
the full 'halt' command string, so the test intermittently
fails with a timeout:
https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/1264
Work around both of these by waiting for the guest to print the
string that means it has completed the shutdown process. This fixes
a very long standing intermittent failure in this test.
Resolves: https://gitlab.com/qemu-project/qemu/-/issues/636
