kselftests: timers: Make set-timer-lat fail more gracefully for !CAP_WAKE_ALARM

2015-04-02T16:32:33+00:00

The set-timer-lat test fails when testing CLOCK_BOOTTIME_ALARM or CLOCK_REALTIME_ALARM when the user isn't running as root or with CAP_WAKE_ALARM. So this patch improves the error checking so we report the issue more clearly and continue rather then reporting a failure.

kselftests: timers: Reduce default runtime on inconsistency-check and set-timer-lat

2015-03-31T19:44:32+00:00

For the default run_timers target, the timers tests takes the majority of kselftests runtime. So this patch reduces the default runtime for inconsistentcy-check and set-timer-lat, which reduced the runtime almost in half.

tools, update rtctest.c to verify passage of time

2015-03-25T04:02:59+00:00

rtctest.c checks to see if PIE is functioning by testing if 20 interrupts occur at rates from 2HZ to 64HZ. While this check is good, it does not check to see if the correct amount of time has actually passed. This misses situations where the RTC may be operating at a higher or lower frequency than expected. This patch introduces a simple check to verify if the time passed is less than 10% of what was programmed into the RTC.

Documentation, split up rtc.txt into documentation and test file

2015-03-25T04:01:58+00:00

This patch splits rtc.txt into two separate files, one for the documentation itself, and the other for the rtctest.c file. The rtctest file is moved into the kernel tools/testing/selftests/timers directory. This will make automated testing easier. Note that the only difference in the rtc.txt file is that the location of the rtctest.c file has changed.

selftests/timers: Use shared logic to run and install tests

2015-03-19T18:03:58+00:00

Change the timers Makefile to make use of shared run and install logic in lib.mk. Destructive tests are installed but not run by default. Add a new variable, TEST_PROGS_EXTENDED, which is a list of extra programs to install, but which are not run by the default run_tests logic. Signed-off-by: Michael Ellerman Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

kselftest/timers: Set default threadtest values to simplify execution scripts

2015-03-19T18:03:34+00:00

In order to keep the kselftest Makefiles simpler, set the threadtest default values to the ones used in standard run_tests Cc: Shuah Khan Cc: Prarit Bhargava Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Richard Cochran Signed-off-by: John Stultz Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

selftests/timers: Add set-2038 test from timetest suite

2015-03-12T19:22:16+00:00

Adds the set-2038 test which sets the time to near-edge cases like the start and end of the 32 bit epoch and checks that time behaves properly. There is also a dangerous mode, which lets the clock roll over past 2038 on 32bit systems, which on some older kernels will cause system hangs.

selftests/timers: Add set-tai from the timetest suite

This patch adds the set-tai test which ensures the tai offset can be set properly from adjtimex. Cc: Shuah Khan Cc: Prarit Bhargava Cc: Thomas Gleixner Cc: Richard Cochran Signed-off-by: John Stultz Tested-by: Prarit Bhargava Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

selftests/timers: Add leapcrash test from the timetest suite

2015-03-12T19:22:16+00:00

This change adds the leapcrash test which tests to see if a leapsecond deadlock which was observed from 2.6.26 to 3.3 is present on this system.

selftests/timers: Add leap-a-day test from timetest suite

2015-03-12T19:22:16+00:00

This change adds the leap-a-day test which sets STA_INS and STA_DEL each day to trigger leapseconds each day. It also has a mode to jump the time to right before the end of the day each iteration.
