ktest.pl: Fix uninitialized var in config-bisect.pl

2026-01-11T14:21:55+00:00

commit d3042cbe84a060b4df764eb6c5300bbe20d125ca upstream. The error path of copying the old config used the wrong variable in the error message: $ mkdir /tmp/build $ ./tools/testing/ktest/config-bisect.pl -b /tmp/build config-good /tmp/config-bad $ chmod 0 /tmp/build $ ./tools/testing/ktest/config-bisect.pl -b /tmp/build config-good /tmp/config-bad good cp /tmp/build//.config config-good.tmp ...

ktest.pl: Prevent recursion of default variable options

2025-08-28T14:28:20+00:00

[ Upstream commit 61f7e318e99d3b398670518dd3f4f8510d1800fc ] If a default variable contains itself, do not recurse on it. For example: ADD_CONFIG := ${CONFIG_DIR}/temp_config DEFAULTS ADD_CONFIG = ${CONFIG_DIR}/default_config ${ADD_CONFIG} The above works because the temp variable ADD_CONFIG (is a temp because it is created with ":=") is already defined, it will be substituted in the variable option. But if it gets commented out: # ADD_CONFIG := ${CONFIG_DIR}/temp_config DEFAULTS ADD_CONFIG = ${CONFIG_DIR}/default_config ${ADD_CONFIG} Then the above will go into a recursive loop where ${ADD_CONFIG} will get replaced with the current definition of ADD_CONFIG which contains the ${ADD_CONFIG} and that will also try to get converted. ktest.pl will error after 100 attempts of recursion and fail. When replacing a variable with the default variable, if the default variable contains itself, do not replace it.

ktest: Fix Test Failures Due to Missing LOG_FILE Directories

ktest.pl: Check kernelrelease return in get_version

2025-02-08T08:52:36+00:00

commit a4e17a8f239a545c463f8ec27db4ed6e74b31841 upstream. In the case of a test that uses the special option ${KERNEL_VERSION} in one of its settings but has no configuration available in ${OUTPUT_DIR}, for example if it's a new empty directory, then the `make kernelrelease` call will fail and the subroutine will chomp an empty string, silently. Fix that by adding an empty configuration and retrying.

ktest.pl: Avoid false positives with grub2 skip regex

2024-10-17T13:24:16+00:00

[ Upstream commit 2351e8c65404aabc433300b6bf90c7a37e8bbc4d ] Some distros have grub2 config files with the lines if [ x"${feature_menuentry_id}" = xy ]; then menuentry_id_option="--id" else menuentry_id_option="" fi which match the skip regex defined for grub2 in get_grub_index(): $skip = '^\s*menuentry'; These false positives cause the grub number to be higher than it should be, and the wrong kernel can end up booting. Grub documents the menuentry command with whitespace between it and the title, so make the skip regex reflect this.

ktest: force $buildonly = 1 for 'make_warnings_file' test type

2024-04-13T11:07:37+00:00

[ Upstream commit 07283c1873a4d0eaa0e822536881bfdaea853910 ] The test type "make_warnings_file" should have no mandatory configuration parameters other than the ones required by the "build" test type, because its purpose is to create a file with build warnings that may or may not be used by other subsequent tests. Currently, the only way to use it as a stand-alone test is by setting POWER_CYCLE, CONSOLE, SSH_USER, BUILD_TARGET, TARGET_IMAGE, REBOOT_TYPE and GRUB_MENU.

ktest: Restore stty setting at first in dodie

2023-02-20T16:52:27+00:00

The do_send_email() will call die before restoring stty if sendmail setting is not correct or sendmail is not installed. It is safer to restore it in the beginning of dodie().

ktest.pl: Add RUN_TIMEOUT option with default unlimited

2023-02-20T16:52:27+00:00

There is a disconnect between the run_command function and the wait_for_input. The wait_for_input has a default timeout of 2 minutes. But if that happens, the run_command loop will exit out to the waitpid() of the executing command. This fails in that it no longer monitors the command, and also, the ssh to the test box can hang when its finished, as it's waiting for the pipe it's writing to to flush, but the loop that reads that pipe has already exited, leaving the command stuck, and the test hangs. Instead, make the default "wait_for_input" of the run_command infinite, and allow the user to override it if they want with a default timeout option "RUN_TIMEOUT". But this fixes the hang that happens when the pipe is full and the ssh session never exits.

ktest.pl: Give back console on Ctrt^C on monitor

2023-02-20T16:52:27+00:00

When monitoring the console output, the stdout is being redirected to do so. If Ctrl^C is hit during this mode, the stdout is not back to the console, the user does not see anything they type (no echo). Add "end_monitor" to the SIGINT interrupt handler to give back the console on Ctrl^C.
