Subject: avocado_qemu: add exec_command function
X-Git-Url: http://git.maquefel.me/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd093d5a2c92c34657c328affcb6ce5413cd205e;p=qemu.git

avocado_qemu: add exec_command function

Sometimes a test needs to send a command to a console without waiting
for a pattern as a result, or the command issued do not produce any kind
of output, like, for example, a `mount` command.

This introduces the `exec_command` function to the avocado_qemu,
allowing the test to send a command to the console without the need to
match a pattern produced as a result.
