* kunit: Use the static key when retrieving the current testDavid Gow2022-12-121-9/+21
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | In order to detect if a KUnit test is running, and to access its context, the 'kunit_test' member of the current task_struct is used. Usually, this is accessed directly or via the kunit_fail_current_task() function. In order to speed up the case where no test is running, add a wrapper, kunit_get_current_test(), which uses the static key to fail early. Equally, Speed up kunit_fail_current_test() by using the static key. This should make it convenient for code to call this unconditionally in fakes or error paths, without worrying that this will slow the code down significantly. If CONFIG_KUNIT=n (or m), this compiles away to nothing. If CONFIG_KUNIT=y, it will compile down to a NOP (on most architectures) if no KUnit test is currently running. Note that kunit_get_current_test() does not work if KUnit is built as a module. This mirrors the existing restriction on kunit_fail_current_test(). Note that the definition of kunit_fail_current_test() still wraps an empty, inline function if KUnit is not built-in. This is to ensure that the printf format string __attribute__ will still work. Also update the documentation to suggest users use the new kunit_get_current_test() function, update the example, and to describe the behaviour when KUnit is disabled better.

* Documentation: KUnit: reword description of assertionsDaniel Latypov2022-12-121-5/+8
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | The existing wording implies that kunit_kmalloc_array() is "the method under test". We're actually testing the sort() function in that example. This is because the example was changed in commit 953574390634 ("Documentation: KUnit: Rework writing page to focus on writing tests"), but the wording was not. Also add a `note` telling people they can use the KUNIT_ASSERT_EQ() macros from any function. Some users might be coming from a framework like gUnit where that'll compile but silently do the wrong thing.

* kunit: add ability to specify suite-level init and exit functionsDaniel Latypov2022-05-021-8/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | KUnit has support for setup/cleanup logic for each test case in a suite. But it lacks the ability to specify setup/cleanup for the entire suite itself. This can be used to do setup that is too expensive or cumbersome to do for each test. Or it can be used to do simpler things like log debug information after the suite completes. It's a fairly common feature, so the lack of it is noticeable. Some examples in other frameworks and languages: * https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#setupclass-and-teardownclass * https://google.github.io/googletest/reference/testing.html#Test::SetUpTestSuite Meta: This is very similar to this patch here: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20210805043503.20252-3-bvanassche@acm.org/ The changes from that patch: * pass in `struct kunit *` so users can do stuff like `kunit_info(suite, "debug message")` * makes sure the init failure is bubbled up as a failure * updates kunit-example-test.c to use a suite init * Updates kunit/usage.rst to mention the new support * some minor cosmetic things * use `suite_{init,exit}` instead of `{init/exit}_suite` * make suite init error message more consistent w/ test init * etc. Signed-off-by: Daniel Latypov <dlatypov@google.com> Reviewed-by: David Gow <davidgow@google.com> Reviewed-by: Brendan Higgins <brendanhiggins@google.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>
