Our custom bare-metal allocator (
SvsmAllocator
) does not work during tests, as they run as regular userspace binaries. Thus, we must not set it as the global Rust allocator. To do this, we need a compile-time directive that lets us know we are building doctests and not the regular binary (cfg(doctests)
), but sadly it is not properly set during test compilation (see rust-lang/rust#45599, rust-lang/rust#67295 and #93).In order to bypass this, set the compile time flag ourselves via the
RUSTFLAGS
environment variable so that tests work. Also add the new invocation to thetest
target in the Makefile.Closes #93
