This patch set proposes KUnit, a lightweight unit testing and mocking
framework for the Linux kernel.
Unlike Autotest and kselftest, KUnit is a true unit testing framework;
it does not require installing the kernel on a test machine or in a VM
and does not require tests to be written in userspace running on a host
kernel. Additionally, KUnit is fast: From invocation to completion KUnit
can run several dozen tests in under a second. Currently, the entire
KUnit test suite for KUnit runs in under a second from the initial
invocation (build time excluded).
KUnit is heavily inspired by JUnit, Python's unittest.mock, and
Googletest/Googlemock for C++. KUnit provides facilities for defining
unit test cases, grouping related test cases into test suites, providing
common infrastructure for running tests, mocking, spying, and much more.
## What's so special about unit testing?
A unit test is supposed to test a single unit of code in isolation,
hence the name. There should be no dependencies outside the control of
the test; this means no external dependencies, which makes tests orders
of magnitudes faster. Likewise, since there are no external dependencies,
there are no hoops to jump through to run the tests. Additionally, this
makes unit tests deterministic: a failing unit test always indicates a
problem. Finally, because unit tests necessarily have finer granularity,
they are able to test all code paths easily solving the classic problem
of difficulty in exercising error handling code.
## Is KUnit trying to replace other testing frameworks for the kernel?
No. Most existing tests for the Linux kernel are end-to-end tests, which
have their place. A well tested system has lots of unit tests, a
reasonable number of integration tests, and some end-to-end tests. KUnit
is just trying to address the unit test space which is currently not
being addressed.
## More information on KUnit
There is a bunch of documentation near the end of this patch set that
describes how to use KUnit and best practices for writing unit tests.
For convenience I am hosting the compiled docs here:
https://google.github.io/kunit-docs/third_party/kernel/docs/
Additionally for convenience, I have applied these patches to a branch:
https://kunit.googlesource.com/linux/+/kunit/rfc/4.19/v3
The repo may be cloned with:
git clone https://kunit.googlesource.com/linux
This patchset is on the kunit/rfc/4.19/v3 branch.
## Changes Since Last Version
- Changed namespace prefix from `test_*` to `kunit_*` as requested by
Shuah.
- Started converting/cleaning up the device tree unittest to use KUnit.
- Started adding KUnit expectations with custom messages.

2.20.0.rc0.387.gc7a69e6b6c-goog
The kmod.sh script breaks because an array is passed as input
instead of a single element input.This patch takes elements
one at a time and passed as input to the condition statement
which in turn fixes the error.There was an issue which had
the need for passing a single digit to the condition statement
which is fixed using regular expression.

2.20.1
Use /bin/echo for console output with options like non
newline (-n) and/or backslash escape (-e).
Tom Zanussi reported that when he tested ftracetest, it
shows "-e" and "-n" options on the console, since a system
which uses dash as the alias of /bin/sh, uses dash built-in
echo command which doesn't accept "-e".
To avoid this issue, use /bin/echo instead of echo for
the output with options.

arm64 has a feature called Top Byte Ignore, which allows to embed pointer
tags into the top byte of each pointer. Userspace programs (such as
HWASan, a memory debugging tool [1]) might use this feature and pass
tagged user pointers to the kernel through syscalls or other interfaces.
Right now the kernel is already able to handle user faults with tagged
pointers, due to these patches:
1. 81cddd65 ("arm64: traps: fix userspace cache maintenance emulation on a
tagged pointer")
2. 7dcd9dd8 ("arm64: hw_breakpoint: fix watchpoint matching for tagged
pointers")
3. 276e9327 ("arm64: entry: improve data abort handling of tagged
pointers")
When passing tagged pointers to syscalls, there's a special case of such a
pointer being passed to one of the memory syscalls (mmap, mprotect, etc.).
These syscalls don't do memory accesses but rather deal with memory
ranges, hence an untagged pointer is better suited.
This patchset extends tagged pointer support to non-memory syscalls. This
is done by reusing the untagged_addr macro to untag user pointers when the
kernel performs pointer checking to find out whether the pointer comes
from userspace (most notably in access_ok). The untagging is done only
when the pointer is being checked, the tag is preserved as the pointer
makes its way through the kernel.
One of the alternative approaches to untagging that was considered is to
completely strip the pointer tag as the pointer enters the kernel with
some kind of a syscall wrapper, but that won't work with the countless
number of different ioctl calls. With this approach we would need a custom
wrapper for each ioctl variation, which doesn't seem practical.
The following testing approaches has been taken to find potential issues
with user pointer untagging:
1. Static testing (with sparse [2] and separately with a custom static
analyzer based on Clang) to track casts of __user pointers to integer
types to find places where untagging needs to be done.
2. Dynamic testing: adding BUG_ON(has_tag(addr)) to find_vma() and running
a modified syzkaller version that passes tagged pointers to the kernel.
Based on the results of the testing the requried patches have been added
to the patchset.
This patchset has been merged into the Pixel 2 kernel tree and is now
being used to enable testing of Pixel 2 phones with HWASan.
This patchset is a prerequisite for ARM's memory tagging hardware feature
support [3].

2.19.1
Hi,
This patch series adds optional support for using MSI interrupts instead
of NTB doorbells in ntb_transport. This is desirable seeing doorbells on
current hardware are quite slow and therefore switching to MSI interrupts
provides a significant performance gain. On switchtec hardware, a simple
apples-to-apples comparison shows ntb_netdev/iperf numbers going from
3.88Gb/s to 14.1Gb/s when switching to MSI interrupts.
To do this, a couple changes are required outside of the NTB tree:
1) The IOMMU must know to accept MSI requests from aliased bused numbers
seeing NTB hardware typically sends proxied request IDs through
additional requester IDs. The first patch in this series adds support
for the Intel IOMMU. A quirk to add these aliases for switchtec hardware
was already accepted. See commit ad281ecf1c7d ("PCI: Add DMA alias quirk
for Microsemi Switchtec NTB") for a description of NTB proxy IDs and why
this is necessary.
2) NTB transport (and other clients) may often need more MSI interrupts
than the NTB hardware actually advertises support for. However, seeing
these interrupts will not be triggered by the hardware but through an
NTB memory window, the hardware does not actually need support or need
to know about them. Therefore we add the concept of Virtual MSI
interrupts which are allocated just like any other MSI interrupt but
are not programmed into the hardware's MSI table. This is done in
Patch 2 and then made use of in Patch 3.
The remaining patches in this series add a library for dealing with MSI
interrupts, a test client and finally support in ntb_transport.
The series is based off of v5.0-rc4 and I've tested it on top of a
of the patches I've already sent to the NTB tree (though they are
independent changes). A git repo is available here:
https://github.com/sbates130272/linux-p2pmem/ ntb_transport_msi_v1
Thanks,
Logan
