# Travis doesn't provide FreeBSD machines, so we just take a Linux one and run
# FreeBSD in qemu virtual machine. qemu is being ran in curses mode inside a
# screen session, because screen allows to easily send input and read output.
# The input is sent using `screen -S session-name -X stuff ...` and the output
# is read from the screen's log file. Note that for some reason you can't send
# long input lines on Travis (it works just fine when I do it on my machine...),
# but that limitation is not an issue, as we don't really need to send long
# lines of input anyway. Also, note that since we run qemu in curses mode, the
# output contains control characters intended for a terminal emulator telling
# how to position and color the text, so it might be a little tricky to read it
# sometimes. The only time when this script has to send input to and read the
# output from the screen session is during the initial setup when we setup the
# network, install and configure the ssh server, and update the system. After
# this initial setup, ssh is used to communicate with the FreeBSD running in the
# VM, which is a lot friendlier way of communication. Please note that Travis
# doesn't seem to allow KVM passthrough, so qemu has to emulate all the
# hardware, which makes it quite slow compared to the host machine. We cache
# the qemu image since it takes a long time to run the initial system and
# package updates, and we do incremental system and package updates on every
# change to the list of git tags (i.e. on every toxcore release, presumably).
