I made some changes to a block backend so I wanted to run the iotests.
I ran into an unrelated failure of iotest 297. The bulk of this
seems to be because the iotest tries to run on all files
in qemu-iotests, even on editor backups like in this case "040~"
(which is an old editor backup of 040). But there are also
some warnings about files that do exist in the tree and which
I haven't modified:

+tests/migrate-bitmaps-test:63:4: R0201: Method could be a function
(no-self-use)
+tests/mirror-change-copy-mode:109:4: R0201: Method could be a
function (no-self-use)
+fat16.py:239:4: R0201: Method could be a function (no-self-use)

Q1: can we make this test not run the linters on editor backup files?
Q2: why do I see the errors above but they aren't in the reference file
output?

Shouldn't be a problem. AFAIK we decide what to lint based on looking for
the shebang in the file and exclude a known-bad list, but we can exclude
the emacs confetti files too.

I'll fix it.

(Guess I haven't been editing the tests for a while... and nobody else has
mentioned it. oops.)

You mean, why are there errors in files you haven't modified?

Very likely: pylint version differences. I've been meaning to remove iotest
297 for a long time, but when you run it directly through iotests (i.e. not
through the python directory tests, the ones that run on gitlab ci), the
linter versions are not controlled for. It's a remaining ugly spot of the
python consistency work. (sparing you the details on why but it's a known
thing I need to fix.)

In this case I bet "check-python-tox" (an optionally run, may-fail job) is
also failing on gitlab and I didn't notice yet.

for now (assuming my guesses above are right): I'll fix 297 to tolerate the
newest versions. As soon as I'm done my sphinx work, I'll pivot back to
finally adding a "check python" subtest to "make check" that *does* control
linter versions, and delete iotest 297.

Just in case my guesses are wrong, can you please go to your QEMU build
directory (post-configure) and type:

> source pyvenv/bin/activate.[whatever shell suffix you use]
> pylint --version
> deactivate

and let me know what version of pylint you have in the qemu build
environment?

Yes, and/or "why isn't the test forcing a pylint version?"
and/or "why is the test run by default if it depends on
the pylint version?" :-)

I kicked off a job by hand, and yes, it fails, but apparently
not for the same set of errors as the above...

"because it's always been like that and I've had difficulties fixing it",
mostly :)

qemu configure venv was the first step to finally fixing it, but I've run
into some troubles since but have been too busy with Sphinx junk.

I know it's bonkers, sorry!
