Documentation: kunit: drop obsolete note about uml_abort for coverage

2021-07-12T19:54:12+00:00

Commit b6d5799b0b58 ("kunit: Add 'kunit_shutdown' option") changes KUnit to call kernel_halt() by default when done testing. This fixes the issue with not having .gcda files due to not calling atexit() handlers, and therefore we can stop recommending people manually tweak UML code. The need to use older versions of GCC (<=6) remains however, due to linktime issues, same as before. Note: There also might still be issues with .gcda files as well in newer versions.

kunit: Move default config from arch/um -> tools/testing/kunit

2021-06-23T23:49:17+00:00

The default .kunitconfig file is currently kept in arch/um/configs/kunit_defconfig, but -- with the impending QEMU patch -- will no-longer be exclusively used for UML-based kernels. Move it alongside the other KUnit configs in tools/testing/kunit/configs, and give it a name which matches the existing all_tests.config and broken_on_uml.config files. Also update the Getting Started documentation to point to the new file. Signed-off-by: David Gow Reviewed-by: Brendan Higgins Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

docs: dev-tools: kunit: don't use a table for docs name

We'll be replacing :doc:`foo` references to Documentation/foo.rst. Yet, here it happens inside a table. Doing a search-and-replace would break it. Yet, as there's no good reason to use a table there, let's just convert it into a list.

Documentation: kunit: Update kunit_tool page

2021-05-21T19:25:56+00:00

The kunit_tool documentation page was pretty minimal, and a bit outdated. Update it and flesh it out a bit. In particular, - Mention that .kunitconfig is now in the build directory - Describe the use of --kunitconfig to specify a different config framgent - Mention the split functionality (i.e., commands other than 'run') - Describe --raw_output and kunit.py parse - Mention the globbing support - Provide a quick overview of other options, including --build_dir and --alltests Note that this does overlap a little with the new running_tips page. I don't think it's a problem having both: this page is supposed to be a bit more of a reference, rather than a list of useful tips, so the fact that they both describe the same features isn't a problem.

Documentation: kunit: add tips for running KUnit

2021-05-21T19:25:45+00:00

This is long overdue. There are several things that aren't nailed down (in-tree .kunitconfig's), or partially broken (GCOV on UML), but having them documented, warts and all, is better than having nothing. This covers a bunch of the more recent features * kunit_filter_glob * kunit.py run --kunitconfig * slightly more detail on building tests as modules * CONFIG_KUNIT_DEBUGFS By my count, the only headline features now not mentioned are the KASAN integration and KernelCI json output support (kunit.py run --json). And then it also discusses how to get code coverage reports under UML and non-UML since this is a question people have repeatedly asked. Non-UML coverage collection is no different from normal, but we should probably explicitly call this out. As for UML, I was able to get it working again with two small hacks.* E.g. with CONFIG_KUNIT=y && CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y Overall coverage rate: lines......: 15.1% (18294 of 120776 lines) functions..: 16.8% (1860 of 11050 functions) Note: this doesn't document --alltests since this is not stable yet. Hopefully being run more frequently as part of KernelCI will help... *Using gcc/gcov-6 and not using uml_abort() in os_dump_core(). I've documented these hacks in "Notes" but left TODOs for brendanhiggins@google.com who tracked down the runtime issue in GCC. To be clear: these are not issues specific to KUnit, but rather to UML.
