Merge tag 'linux-kselftest-kunit-5.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest
Pull KUnit updates from Shuah Khan - support for filtering test suites using glob from Daniel Latypov. "kunit_filter.glob" command line option is passed to the UML kernel, which currently only supports filtering by suite name. This support allows running different subsets of tests, e.g. $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py build $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec 'list*' $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec 'kunit*' - several fixes and cleanups also from Daniel Latypov. * tag 'linux-kselftest-kunit-5.12-rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest: kunit: tool: fix unintentional statefulness in run_kernel() kunit: tool: add support for filtering suites by glob kunit: add kunit.filter_glob cmdline option to filter suites kunit: don't show `1 == 1` in failed assertion messages kunit: make kunit_tool accept optional path to .kunitconfig fragment Documentation: kunit: add tips.rst for small examples KUnit: Docs: make start.rst example Kconfig follow style.rst kunit: tool: simplify kconfig is_subset_of() logic minor: kunit: tool: fix unit test so it can run from non-root dir kunit: tool: use `with open()` in unit test kunit: tool: stop using bare asserts in unit test kunit: tool: fix unit test cleanup handling

Tips For Writing KUnit Tests
|
||||
============================
|
||||
|
||||
Exiting early on failed expectations
|
||||
------------------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
``KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ`` and friends will mark the test as failed and continue
|
||||
execution. In some cases, it's unsafe to continue and you can use the
|
||||
``KUNIT_ASSERT`` variant to exit on failure.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
void example_test_user_alloc_function(struct kunit *test)
|
||||
{
|
||||
void *object = alloc_some_object_for_me();
|
||||
|
||||
/* Make sure we got a valid pointer back. */
|
||||
KUNIT_ASSERT_NOT_ERR_OR_NULL(test, object);
|
||||
do_something_with_object(object);
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
Allocating memory
|
||||
-----------------
|
||||
|
||||
Where you would use ``kzalloc``, you should prefer ``kunit_kzalloc`` instead.
|
||||
KUnit will ensure the memory is freed once the test completes.
|
||||
|
||||
This is particularly useful since it lets you use the ``KUNIT_ASSERT_EQ``
|
||||
macros to exit early from a test without having to worry about remembering to
|
||||
call ``kfree``.
|
||||
|
||||
Example:
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
void example_test_allocation(struct kunit *test)
|
||||
{
|
||||
char *buffer = kunit_kzalloc(test, 16, GFP_KERNEL);
|
||||
/* Ensure allocation succeeded. */
|
||||
KUNIT_ASSERT_NOT_ERR_OR_NULL(test, buffer);
|
||||
|
||||
KUNIT_ASSERT_STREQ(test, buffer, "");
|
||||
}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
Testing static functions
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
If you don't want to expose functions or variables just for testing, one option
|
||||
is to conditionally ``#include`` the test file at the end of your .c file, e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
/* In my_file.c */
|
||||
|
||||
static int do_interesting_thing();
|
||||
|
||||
#ifdef CONFIG_MY_KUNIT_TEST
|
||||
#include "my_kunit_test.c"
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
|
||||
Injecting test-only code
|
||||
------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Similarly to the above, it can be useful to add test-specific logic.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
/* In my_file.h */
|
||||
|
||||
#ifdef CONFIG_MY_KUNIT_TEST
|
||||
/* Defined in my_kunit_test.c */
|
||||
void test_only_hook(void);
|
||||
#else
|
||||
void test_only_hook(void) { }
|
||||
#endif
|
||||
|
||||
TODO(dlatypov@google.com): add an example of using ``current->kunit_test`` in
|
||||
such a hook when it's not only updated for ``CONFIG_KASAN=y``.
|
||||
|
||||
Customizing error messages
|
||||
--------------------------
|
||||
|
||||
Each of the ``KUNIT_EXPECT`` and ``KUNIT_ASSERT`` macros have a ``_MSG`` variant.
|
||||
These take a format string and arguments to provide additional context to the automatically generated error messages.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
char some_str[41];
|
||||
generate_sha1_hex_string(some_str);
|
||||
|
||||
/* Before. Not easy to tell why the test failed. */
|
||||
KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, strlen(some_str), 40);
|
||||
|
||||
/* After. Now we see the offending string. */
|
||||
KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ_MSG(test, strlen(some_str), 40, "some_str='%s'", some_str);
|
||||
|
||||
Alternatively, one can take full control over the error message by using ``KUNIT_FAIL()``, e.g.
|
||||
|
||||
.. code-block:: c
|
||||
|
||||
/* Before */
|
||||
KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, some_setup_function(), 0);
|
||||
|
||||
/* After: full control over the failure message. */
|
||||
if (some_setup_function())
|
||||
KUNIT_FAIL(test, "Failed to setup thing for testing");
|
||||
|
||||
