Subject: [PATCH v5 linux-kselftest-test 3/6] kunit: allow kunit tests to be loaded as a module

As tests are added to kunit, it will become less feasible to execute
all built tests together. By supporting modular tests we provide
a simple way to do selective execution on a running system; specifying

CONFIG_KUNIT=y
CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=m

...means we can simply "insmod example-test.ko" to run the tests.

To achieve this we need to do the following:

o export the required symbols in kunit
o string-stream tests utilize non-exported symbols so for now we skip
building them when CONFIG_KUNIT_TEST=m.
o support a new way of declaring test suites. Because a module cannot
do multiple late_initcall()s, we provide a kunit_test_suites() macro
to declare multiple suites within the same module at once.
o some test module names would have been too general ("test-test"
and "example-test" for kunit tests, "inode-test" for ext4 tests);
rename these as appropriate ("kunit-test", "kunit-example-test"
and "ext4-inode-test" respectively).

Acked-by: Theodore Ts'o <[email protected]> # for ext4 bits


I do have one question, out of curiosity --- for people who aren't
using UML to run Kunit tests, and are either running the kunit tests
during boot, or when the module is loaded, is there the test framework
to automatically extract the test reports out of dmesg?

I can boot a kernel with kunit tests enabled using kvm, and I see it
splatted intermixed with the rest of the kernel boot messages. This
is how I tested the 32-bit ext4 inode test fix. But I had to manually
find the test output. Is that the expected way people are supposed to
be using Kunit tests w/o using UML and the python runner?

Thanks,

- Ted

For now, yes. We do not currently have a piece that extracts the test
reports; however, we are planning on pulling that bit out of
tools/testing/kunit/; we just haven't gotten around to it yet.

Thanks for taking a look!

Looks like Brendan's got something coming to resolve this;
I've also got a patch that I was hoping to send out soon
that might help. The idea is that each test suite would create
a debugfs representation under /sys/kernel/debug/kunit;
specifically:

/sys/kernel/debug/kunit/results/<suite>
/sys/kernel/debug/kunit/results/<suite>-tests

...where cat'ing the former shows the full set of results,
and the latter is a directory within which we can display
individual test results in test-case-specific files.

This is all done by ensuring that when tests log information,
they log to a per-test-case log buffer as well as to dmesg.

If the above sounds useful, I'll try and polish up the patch
for submission. Thanks!

Good point - I've fixed this in v6. Thanks for the review!

What would be the best way for kunit_tool to:
1. Know that the tests have completed as QEMU will be just sitting
there with kernel complaining about the absence of init (or running
whatever we give it as init)?
2. Read the test results from debugfs under QEMU virtual machine while
the kernel is still there?
I think supplying an init script/binary that copies the
/sys/kernel/debug/kunit/results/* to a 9p shared dir set up by
kunit_tool would work but it would add a step of cross-compiling and
packaging a userspace binary.

I confess I'd only been thinking about supporting the case of a user
modprobe-ing a kunit test suite module directly and wanting a clean set
of results separated from other dmesg output. However the scheme you
describe does seem workable for the UML case also. With the
late_initcalls the builtin kunit suites will likely run early in boot but perhaps we could tweak the
semantics such that the full results debugfs file is not populated until
the tests have run to simplify script-based probing. I'll try some
experiments with the debugfs patch once it's ready. Thanks!
