Add support to the test runner to check the test execution time, and report tests that should be marked as slow but aren't.

Hello!

Thanks for following up! Sorry for the delay in this response.

This looks great to me. I do have one comment below regarding the KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S macro but other than that I would be happy with this patch.

This patch does bring up the question of how to handle KUnit warnings as mentioned before. But I am happy to approach that in a future patch.

And I do still have concerns with this being annoying for those on slower architectures but again that would depend on how we deal with KUnit warnings.

Thanks! -Rae

• Split the patch out of the series
• Change to trigger the warning only if the runtime is twice the threshold (Jani, Rae)

I think I would prefer that KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S is instead set to 2 rather than using 2 as the multiplier. I realize the actual threshold for the attributes is 1 sec but for the practical use of this warning it is 2 sec.

Also I would still be open to this being 1 sec depending on others opinions. David, what are your thoughts on this?

I quite like this, though agree somewhat with Rae's comments below.

I personally think the time thresholds are, by necessity, very 'fuzzy', due to the varying speeds of different hardware. Fortunately, the actual runtime of tests seems pretty well stratified, so the exact threshold doesn't really matter much.

I ran some tests here, and all of the tests currently not marked slow take <1s on every machine I tried (including the ancient 66MHz 486), except for the drm_mm_* ones (which takes ~6s on my laptop, and times out after 15 minutes on the aforementioned 486). Both the 1s and 2s timeouts successfully distinguish those cases.

Ideally, I think we'd have something like: #define KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S 1 /* 1 sec threshold for 'slow' tests */ #define KUNIT_SPEED_WARNING_MULTIPLIER 2 /* Warn when a test takes > twice the threshold. */ #define KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_WARNING_THRESHOLD_S (KUNIT_SPEED_WARNING_MULTIPLIER * KUNIT_SPEED_SLOW_THRESHOLD_S)

Which is perhaps excessively verbose, but is very clear as to what we're doing. It also gives more scope to allow the ratio to be configured for people with very slow / fast machines in the future.

Thoughts?

Otherwise, this looks good to me.
