[PATCH v2 0/2] kunit: add boot time parameter to enable KUnit

[PATCH v2 0/2] kunit: add boot time parameter to enable KUnit

[Joe Fradley]

v2:
 - Added enable check in executor.c to prevent wrong error output from
   kunit_tool.py when run against a KUnit disabled kernel
 - kunit_tool.py now passes kunit.enable=1
 - Flipped around logic of new config to KUNIT_DEFAULT_ENABLED
 - Now load modules containing tests but not executing them
 - Various message/description text clean up

There are some use cases where the kernel binary is desired to be the same
for both production and testing. This poses a problem for users of KUnit
as built-in tests will automatically run at startup and test modules
can still be loaded leaving the kernel in an unsafe state. There is a
"test" taint flag that gets set if a test runs but nothing to prevent
the execution.

This patch adds the kunit.enable module parameter that will need to be
set to true in addition to KUNIT being enabled for KUnit tests to run.
The default value is true giving backwards compatibility. However, for
the production+testing use case the new config option KUNIT_DEFAULT_ENABLED
can be set to N requiring the tester to opt-in by passing kunit.enable=1 to
the kernel.

[PATCH v2 2/2] kunit: no longer call module_info(test, "Y") for kunit modules

[Joe Fradley]

Because KUnit test execution is not a guarantee with the kunit.enable
parameter we want to be careful to only taint the kernel when actual
tests run. Calling module_info(test, "Y") for every KUnit module
automatically causes the kernel to be tainted upon module load. Therefore,
we're removing this call and relying on the KUnit framework to taint the
kernel or not.

Thanks very much. This looks good to me, and works on my machine.

This probably isn't strictly necessary at this stage, given that it
just checks one variable. That being said, I don't think it hurts (and
personally, I quite like it), and find it more future-proof than
exposing the variable more widely anyway.

_Maybe_ this could be pr_info_once(), if you were worried about spam
(if a whole bunch of test modules were loaded at once). That being
said, I prefer it as-is, as I don't think there are a lot of cases
where large number of kunit test modules are loaded on a system with
KUnit disable. And I'm liable to forget that KUnit is disabled if a
system has been running for a while (and maybe one test module was
loaded a boot), and end up wondering why my test isn't running.

So, I'm all for leaving this as-is, personally.

It also addressed it being a static variable.

Re: [PATCH v2 0/2] kunit: add boot time parameter to enable KUnit

[Tales Aparecida]

Hi,


This series is
Tested-by: Tales Aparecida <tales.aparecida@gmail.com>

1. Tested using kunit_tool: running tests and showing output as expected.

2. Tested further by running QEMU through virtme-run with:
   $ ../virtme/virtme-run --show-command --kdir ../linux/.for-amd/ --mods=auto --kopt kunit.enable=1

2.a. "KUNIT_DEFAULT_ENABLED" works as expected when "kunit.enable" is omitted
2.b. kunit.enable=0 results in printing "kunit: disabled" on boot and on loading test modules, as expected
3.c. kunit.enable=1 runs tests on boot and allows them to run when loading test modules

3. Regarding taint
3.a. /proc/sys/kernel/tainted is 0 when kunit.enable=0 and does not change when trying to load test modules.
3.b. /proc/sys/kernel/tainted is 0 when kunit.enable=1 until the first test runs, then it becomes 262144 (2^18) as expected.


On other note, there's something I would like to delve into below.

Do you have any info on whether these use cases would have something against writing tests for static functions using the documented approach of including the tests into the actual runtime code? 
https://docs.kernel.org/dev-tools/kunit/usage.html#testing-static-functions

Otherwise, would them agree to export the symbols that need to be tested?

I would really like to understand better what are these use cases :)

I feel using the static functions as described in your link is a good
alternative to
modules with embedded KUnit tests. However, this is a different use case then
I refer to, which is the ability to have the framework embedded in the
kernel for
both production and test with the control of test execution gated on a kernel
command line parameter.

I have another question regarding the compilation in this use case.

Does it have a strict requirement to minimize the kernel size?
That is, is there any requirement around built-in test modules
and/or a plan to load test modules on demand when booting with
kunit.enable=1?


I would also like to know whether the use case includes running
unit tests for AMDGPU or DRM, just so we can be aware of it when
writing more tests for static functions using the approach shown
in that link.

Even though kunit.enable will work as expected for built-in tests,
it's geared more towards the loading test modules scenario. It doesn't
have any requirements for kernel size.  But if built-in tests are
included the cost of the extra space will need to be weighed against
the value of having the option to activate the tests via kunit.enable.

> kunit.enable=1?

There's no current plan to load test modules on demand that wouldn't
otherwise be loaded when kunit.enable=1.

I can't speak specifically about AMDGPU or DRM at the moment
because it depends on the targets we're testing. But it's a good
question in general about tests that are embedded in modules. It's
effectively the same tradeoff I mentioned earlier in regards to built-in
tests. The pros in having the tests activated by kunit.enable would
need to outweigh the cons of the size addition. It would be
preferable for the tests to be in a separate module.
