Vaibhav Jain 643ec8ff7d kunit: Add example of test suite that can be skipped at runtime
Add an example test suite name 'example_test_skip_suite' to
'kunit-example-test.c' that shows how to skip an entire test suite based on
runtime conditions.

The example suite 'example_skip_suite' provides a 'suite_init' callback
named example_skip_suite_init() which marks the entire suite as skipped
using kunit_mark_skipped().

This demonstrates a way for conditionally skipping test suites when any
prerequisites for kunit_suite execution are not met. The 'suite_init'
callback can perform any necessary checks and mark the suite as skipped,
preventing all test cases from executing while also indicating why the
suite was skipped.

Linus Torvalds bf4afc53b7 Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\<k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

Kees Cook 69050f8d6d treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Marie Zhussupova f9687f351f kunit: Add example parameterized test with direct dynamic parameter array setup
Introduce example_params_test_with_init_dynamic_arr(). This new
KUnit test demonstrates directly assigning a dynamic parameter
array, using the kunit_register_params_array() macro, to a
parameterized test context.

It highlights the use of param_init() and param_exit() for
initialization and exit of a parameterized test, and their
registration to the test case with KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_WITH_INIT().

Marie Zhussupova a03e3caa0e kunit: Add example parameterized test with shared resource management using the Resource API
Add example_params_test_with_init() to illustrate how to manage
shared resources across a parameterized KUnit test. This example
showcases the use of the new param_init() function and its registration
to a test using the KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_WITH_INIT() macro.

Additionally, the test demonstrates how to directly pass a parameter array
to the parameterized test context via kunit_register_params_array()
and leveraging the Resource API for shared resource management.

Rae Moar 02c2d0c2a8 kunit: Add speed attribute
Add speed attribute to the test attribute API. This attribute will allow
users to mark tests with a category of speed.

Currently the categories of speed proposed are: normal, slow, and very_slow
(outlined in enum kunit_speed). These are outlined in the enum kunit_speed.

The assumed default speed for tests is "normal". This indicates that the
test takes a relatively trivial amount of time (less than 1 second),
regardless of the machine it is running on. Any test slower than this could
be marked as "slow" or "very_slow".

Add the macro KUNIT_CASE_SLOW to set a test as slow, as this is likely a
common use of the attributes API.

Add an example of marking a slow test to kunit-example-test.c.

David Gow e047c5eaa7 kunit: Expose 'static stub' API to redirect functions
Add a simple way of redirecting calls to functions by including a
special prologue in the "real" function which checks to see if the
replacement function should be called (and, if so, calls it).

To redirect calls to a function, make the first (non-declaration) line
of the function:

	KUNIT_STATIC_STUB_REDIRECT(function_name, [function arguments]);

(This will compile away to nothing if KUnit is not enabled, otherwise it
will check if a redirection is active, call the replacement function,
and return. This check is protected by a static branch, so has very
little overhead when there are no KUnit tests running.)

Calls to the real function can be redirected to a replacement using:

	kunit_activate_static_stub(test, real_fn, replacement_fn);

The redirection will only affect calls made from within the kthread of
the current test, and will be automatically disabled when the test
completes. It can also be manually disabled with
kunit_deactivate_static_stub().

The 'example' KUnit test suite has a more complete example.

Daniel Latypov 1cdba21db2 kunit: add ability to specify suite-level init and exit functions
KUnit has support for setup/cleanup logic for each test case in a suite.
But it lacks the ability to specify setup/cleanup for the entire suite
itself.

This can be used to do setup that is too expensive or cumbersome to do
for each test.
Or it can be used to do simpler things like log debug information after
the suite completes.
It's a fairly common feature, so the lack of it is noticeable.

Some examples in other frameworks and languages:
* https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#setupclass-and-teardownclass
* https://google.github.io/googletest/reference/testing.html#Test::SetUpTestSuite

Meta:
This is very similar to this patch here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/[email protected]/
The changes from that patch:
* pass in `struct kunit *` so users can do stuff like
  `kunit_info(suite, "debug message")`
* makes sure the init failure is bubbled up as a failure
* updates kunit-example-test.c to use a suite init
* Updates kunit/usage.rst to mention the new support
* some minor cosmetic things
  * use `suite_{init,exit}` instead of `{init/exit}_suite`
  * make suite init error message more consistent w/ test init
  * etc.

Currently, these macros are only really documented near the bottom of

E.g. it's likely someone might just not realize that
KUNIT_EXPECT_STREQ() exists and instead use KUNIT_EXPECT_FALSE(strcmp())
or similar.

This can also serve as a basic smoketest that the KUnit assert machinery
still works for all the macros.

Alan Maguire c475c77d5b 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 drivers/base/power/qos-test.c contains a few unexported interface
  references, namely freq_qos_read_value() and freq_constraints_init().
  Both of these could be potentially defined as static inline functions
  in include/linux/pm_qos.h, but for now we simply avoid supporting
  module build for that test suite.
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).

Also define kunit_test_suite() via kunit_test_suites()
as callers in other trees may need the old definition.
