selftests/powerpc: Kill child processes on SIGINT

2018-09-15T07:42:59+00:00

[ Upstream commit 7c27a26e1ed5a7dd709aa19685d2c98f64e1cf0c ] There are some powerpc selftests, as tm/tm-unavailable, that run for a long period (>120 seconds), and if it is interrupted, as pressing CRTL-C (SIGINT), the foreground process (harness) dies but the child process and threads continue to execute (with PPID = 1 now) in background. In this case, you'd think the whole test exited, but there are remaining threads and processes being executed in background. Sometimes these zombies processes are doing annoying things, as consuming the whole CPU or dumping things to STDOUT. This patch fixes this problem by attaching an empty signal handler to SIGINT in the harness process. This handler will interrupt (EINTR) the parent process waitpid() call, letting the code to follow through the normal flow, which will kill all the processes in the child process group. This patch also fixes a typo. Signed-off-by: Breno Leitao Signed-off-by: Gustavo Romero Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

selftests/powerpc: Skip the subpage_prot tests if the syscall is unavailable

2018-05-30T05:50:33+00:00

[ Upstream commit cd4a6f3ab4d80cb919d15897eb3cbc85c2009d4b ] The subpage_prot syscall is only functional when the system is using the Hash MMU. Since commit 5b2b80714796 ("powerpc/mm: Invalidate subpage_prot() system call on radix platforms") it returns ENOENT when the Radix MMU is active. Currently this just makes the test fail. Additionally the syscall is not available if the kernel is built with 4K pages, or if CONFIG_PPC_SUBPAGE_PROT=n, in which case it returns ENOSYS because the syscall is missing entirely. So check explicitly for ENOENT and ENOSYS and skip if we see either of those. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

selftests/powerpc: Fix TM resched DSCR test with some compilers

2018-04-13T17:48:02+00:00

[ Upstream commit fe06fe860250a4f01d0eaf70a2563b1997174a74 ] The tm-resched-dscr test has started failing sometimes, depending on what compiler it's built with, eg: test: tm_resched_dscr Check DSCR TM context switch: tm-resched-dscr: tm-resched-dscr.c:76: test_body: Assertion `rv' failed. !! child died by signal 6 When it fails we see that the compiler doesn't initialise rv to 1 before entering the inline asm block. Although that's counter intuitive, it is allowed because we tell the compiler that the inline asm will write to rv (using "=r"), meaning the original value is irrelevant. Marking it as a read/write parameter would presumably work, but it seems simpler to fix it by setting the initial value of rv in the inline asm.

selftest/powerpc: Fix false failures for skipped tests

2017-12-14T08:28:17+00:00

[ Upstream commit a6d8a21596df041f36f4c2ccc260c459e3e851f1 ] Tests under alignment subdirectory are skipped when executed on previous generation hardware, but harness still marks them as failed. test: test_copy_unaligned tags: git_version:unknown [SKIP] Test skipped on line 26 skip: test_copy_unaligned selftests: copy_unaligned [FAIL] The MAGIC_SKIP_RETURN_VALUE value assigned to rc variable is retained till the program exit which causes the test to be marked as failed. This patch resets the value before returning to the main() routine. With this patch the test o/p is as follows: test: test_copy_unaligned tags: git_version:unknown [SKIP] Test skipped on line 26 skip: test_copy_unaligned selftests: copy_unaligned [PASS] Signed-off-by: Sachin Sant Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

selftest/powerpc: Wrong PMC initialized in pmc56_overflow test

commit df21d2fa733035e4d414379960f94b2516b41296 upstream. Test uses PMC2 to count the event. But PMC1 is being initialized. Patch to fix it.

selftests/powerpc: Fix build break caused by EXPORT_SYMBOL changes

2016-10-06T11:26:42+00:00

The changes to make EXPORT_SYMBOL work in asm, specifically commit 9445aa1a3062 ("ppc: move exports to definitions"), in the kbuild tree, breaks some of our selftests. That is because we symlink the kernel code into the selftest, and shim the required headers, and we are now missing asm/export.h So create a minimal export.h to keep the tests building once powerpc and the kbuild trees are merged.

selftests/powerpc: Add missing binaries to .gitignores

Some of the recent new selftests were missing additions to .gitignore, add them now. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman

selftests/powerpc: Add checks for transactional VSXs in signal contexts

2016-10-04T09:33:15+00:00

If a thread receives a signal while transactional the kernel creates a second context to show the transactional state of the process. This test loads some known values and waits for a signal and confirms that the expected values are in the signal context. Signed-off-by: Cyril Bur Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman
