Re: [Qemu-devel] [PATCH v5 00/12] tests: Add VM based build tests (for non-x86_64 and/or non-Linux)

[Kamil Rytarowski]

Could we please add SmartOS image. It's an Illumos distribution,
previously known as OpenSolaris.

qemu is actively maintained for SmartOS in pkgsrc.

The latest build fixes were introduced less than a week ago.
https://github.com/NetBSD/pkgsrc/commit/f2608af5433f1491a92567bf570e9349dffbda7a

I'm going to submit the SmartOS patches to fix the build regardless of
the decision.
