473 Testing Against Multiple Inputs !! 449 .. _kunit-on-non-uml:
474 ------------------------------- <<
475 <<
476 Testing just a few inputs is not enough to ens <<
477 for example: testing a hash function. <<
478 <<
479 We can write a helper macro or function. The f <<
480 For example, to test ``sha1sum(1)``, we can wr <<
481 <<
482 .. code-block:: c <<
483 <<
484 #define TEST_SHA1(in, want) \ <<
485 sha1sum(in, out); \ <<
486 KUNIT_EXPECT_STREQ_MSG(test, o <<

489 TEST_SHA1("hello world", "2aae6c35c94 <<

492 Note the use of the ``_MSG`` version of ``KUNI <<

494 <<
495 The ``_MSG`` variants are useful when the same <<
496 times (in a loop or helper function) and thus <<
497 identify what failed, as shown below. <<
498 <<
499 In complicated cases, we recommend using a *ta <<
500 helper macro variation, for example: <<
501 <<
502 .. code-block:: c <<
503 <<
504 int i; <<
505 char out[40]; <<
506 <<
507 struct sha1_test_case { <<
508 const char *str; <<
509 const char *sha1; <<
510 }; <<
511 <<
512 struct sha1_test_case cases[] = { <<
513 { <<
514 .str = "hello world", <<
515 .sha1 = "2aae6c35c94fc <<
516 }, <<
517 { <<
518 .str = "hello world!", <<
519 .sha1 = "430ce34d02072 <<
520 }, <<
521 }; <<
522 for (i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(cases); ++i <<
523 sha1sum(cases[i].str, out); <<
524 KUNIT_EXPECT_STREQ_MSG(test, o <<

593 Allocating Memory <<
594 ----------------- <<
595 <<
596 Where you might use ``kzalloc``, you can inste <<
597 will then ensure that the memory is freed once <<
598 <<
599 This is useful because it lets us use the ``KU <<
600 early from a test without having to worry abou <<

602 <<
603 .. code-block:: c <<
604 <<
605 void example_test_allocation(struct ku <<
606 { <<
607 char *buffer = kunit_kzalloc(t <<
608 /* Ensure allocation succeeded <<
609 KUNIT_ASSERT_NOT_ERR_OR_NULL(t <<
610 <<
611 KUNIT_ASSERT_STREQ(test, buffe <<
612 } <<
613 <<
614 Registering Cleanup Actions <<
615 --------------------------- <<
616 <<
617 If you need to perform some cleanup beyond sim <<
618 you can register a custom "deferred action", w <<
619 run when the test exits (whether cleanly, or v <<
620 <<
621 Actions are simple functions with no return va <<
622 context argument, and fulfill the same role as <<
623 and Go tests, "defer" statements in languages <<
624 (in some cases) destructors in RAII languages. <<
625 <<
626 These are very useful for unregistering things <<
627 files or other resources, or freeing resources <<
628 <<
629 For example: <<
630 <<
631 .. code-block:: C <<
632 <<
633 static void cleanup_device(void *ctx) <<
634 { <<
635 struct device *dev = (struct d <<
636 <<
637 device_unregister(dev); <<
638 } <<
639 <<
640 void example_device_test(struct kunit <<
641 { <<
642 struct my_device dev; <<
643 <<
644 device_register(&dev); <<
645 <<
646 kunit_add_action(test, &cleanu <<
647 } <<
648 <<
649 Note that, for functions like device_unregiste <<
650 pointer-sized argument, it's possible to autom <<
651 with the ``KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER()`` mac <<
652 450

>> 452 ==============================
654 453
655 KUNIT_DEFINE_ACTION_WRAPPER(device_unr !! 454 By default KUnit uses UML as a way to provide dependencies for code under test.
656 kunit_add_action(test, &device_unregis !! 455 Under most circumstances KUnit's usage of UML should be treated as an

657 460
658 You should do this in preference to manually c !! 461 Running existing KUnit tests on non-UML architectures

664 466
665 If you need more control over when the cleanup !! 467 * Hardware may not be deterministic, so a test that always passes or fails

668 475

669 478
670 Testing Static Functions !! 479 The biggest impediment will likely be that certain KUnit features and

672 485
673 If we do not want to expose functions or varia !! 486 Nevertheless, all core KUnit framework features are fully supported on all

>> 488 your kunitconfig, your Kconfig options for the tests you would like to run, and
>> 489 merge them into whatever config your are using for your platform. That's it!
675 490
676 .. code-block:: c !! 491 For example, let's say you have the following kunitconfig:
677 492
678 /* In my_file.c */ !! 493 .. code-block:: none
679 494
680 VISIBLE_IF_KUNIT int do_interesting_th !! 495 CONFIG_KUNIT=y
681 EXPORT_SYMBOL_IF_KUNIT(do_interesting_ !! 496 CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=y
682 497
683 /* In my_file.h */ !! 498 If you wanted to run this test on an x86 VM, you might add the following config
>> 499 options to your ``.config``:
684 500
685 #if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_KUNIT) !! 501 .. code-block:: none
686 int do_interesting_thing(void) <<
687 #endif <<
688 502
689 Alternatively, you could conditionally ``#incl !! 503 CONFIG_KUNIT=y
690 your .c file. For example: !! 504 CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=y
>> 505 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y
>> 506 CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=y
691 507
692 .. code-block:: c !! 508 All these new options do is enable support for a common serial console needed
>> 509 for logging.
693 510
694 /* In my_file.c */ !! 511 Next, you could build a kernel with these tests as follows:
695 512
696 static int do_interesting_thing(); <<

702 Injecting Test-Only Code !! 516 make ARCH=x86 olddefconfig
703 ------------------------ !! 517 make ARCH=x86
704 518
705 Similar to as shown above, we can add test-spe !! 519 Once you have built a kernel, you could run it on QEMU as follows:
706 520

781 Failing The Current Test !! 562 The first thing you must do is ask yourself whether it is necessary to write a

>> 565 that depends on having access to a particular piece of hardware or software (not
>> 566 included in the Linux source repo) should be avoided at all costs.

787 structures as shown below: !! 571 tests without knowing anything about your particular setup, and you can still

812 Managing Fake Devices and Drivers <<
813 --------------------------------- <<
814 <<
815 When testing drivers or code which interacts w <<
816 require a ``struct device`` or ``struct device <<
817 up a real device is not required to test any g <<
818 can be used instead. <<
819 <<
820 KUnit provides helper functions to create and <<
821 are internally of type ``struct kunit_device`` <<
822 ``kunit_bus``. These devices support managed d <<
823 described in Documentation/driver-api/driver-m <<
824 <<
825 To create a KUnit-managed ``struct device_driv <<
826 which will create a driver with the given name <<
827 will automatically be destroyed when the corre <<
828 be manually destroyed with ``driver_unregister <<
829 <<
830 To create a fake device, use the ``kunit_devic <<
831 and register a device, using a new KUnit-manag <<
832 To provide a specific, non-KUnit-managed drive <<
833 instead. Like with managed drivers, KUnit-mana <<
834 cleaned up when the test finishes, but can be <<
835 ``kunit_device_unregister()``. <<
836 <<
837 The KUnit devices should be used in preference <<
838 instead of ``platform_device_register()`` in c <<
839 a platform device. <<
840 <<
841 For example: <<
842 <<
843 .. code-block:: c <<
844 <<
845 #include <kunit/device.h> <<
846 <<
847 static void test_my_device(struct kuni <<
848 { <<
849 struct device *fake_device; <<
850 const char *dev_managed_string <<
851 <<
852 // Create a fake device. <<
853 fake_device = kunit_device_reg <<

855 591
856 // Pass it to functions which !! 592 .. TODO(brendanhiggins@google.com): Add an actual example of an architecture

858 594
859 // Everything is cleaned up au !! 595 KUnit debugfs representation
860 } !! 596 ============================
>> 597 When kunit test suites are initialized, they create an associated directory
>> 598 in ``/sys/kernel/debug/kunit/<test-suite>``. The directory contains one file
>> 599
>> 600 - results: "cat results" displays results of each test case and the results
>> 601 of the entire suite for the last test run.
>> 602
>> 603 The debugfs representation is primarily of use when kunit test suites are
>> 604 run in a native environment, either as modules or builtin. Having a way
>> 605 to display results like this is valuable as otherwise results can be
>> 606 intermixed with other events in dmesg output. The maximum size of each
