enum kunit_status¶: Type of result for a test or test suite

Constants

KUNIT_SUCCESS: Denotes the test suite has not failed nor been skipped
KUNIT_FAILURE: Denotes the test has failed.
KUNIT_SKIPPED: Denotes the test has been skipped.

struct kunit_case¶: represents an individual test case.

Definition:

struct kunit_case {
    void (*run_case)(struct kunit *test);
    const char *name;
    const void* (*generate_params)(const void *prev, char *desc);
    struct kunit_attributes attr;
};

Members

run_case: the function representing the actual test case.
name: the name of the test case.
generate_params: the generator function for parameterized tests.
attr: the attributes associated with the test

Description

A test case is a function with the signature, void (*)(struct kunit *) that makes expectations and assertions (see KUNIT_EXPECT_TRUE() and KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE()) about code under test. Each test case is associated with a struct kunit_suite and will be run after the suite’s init function and followed by the suite’s exit function.

A test case should be static and should only be created with the KUNIT_CASE() macro; additionally, every array of test cases should be terminated with an empty test case.

void add_test_basic(struct kunit *test)
{
        KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, 1, add(1, 0));
        KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, 2, add(1, 1));
        KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, 0, add(-1, 1));
        KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, INT_MAX, add(0, INT_MAX));
        KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(test, -1, add(INT_MAX, INT_MIN));
}

static struct kunit_case example_test_cases[] = {
        KUNIT_CASE(add_test_basic),
        {}
};

Example

KUNIT_CASE¶

KUNIT_CASE (test_name)

A helper for creating a struct kunit_case

Parameters

test_name: a reference to a test case function.

Description

Takes a symbol for a function representing a test case and creates a struct kunit_case object from it. See the documentation for struct kunit_case for an example on how to use it.

KUNIT_CASE_ATTR¶

KUNIT_CASE_ATTR (test_name, attributes)

A helper for creating a struct kunit_case with attributes

Parameters

test_name: a reference to a test case function.
attributes: a reference to a struct kunit_attributes object containing test attributes

KUNIT_CASE_SLOW¶

KUNIT_CASE_SLOW (test_name)

A helper for creating a struct kunit_case with the slow attribute

Parameters

test_name: a reference to a test case function.

KUNIT_CASE_PARAM¶

KUNIT_CASE_PARAM (test_name, gen_params)

A helper for creation a parameterized struct kunit_case

Parameters

test_name: a reference to a test case function.
gen_params: a reference to a parameter generator function.

Description

The generator function:

const void* gen_params(const void *prev, char *desc)

is used to lazily generate a series of arbitrarily typed values that fit into a void*. The argument prev is the previously returned value, which should be used to derive the next value; prev is set to NULL on the initial generator call. When no more values are available, the generator must return NULL. Optionally write a string into desc (size of KUNIT_PARAM_DESC_SIZE) describing the parameter.

KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_ATTR¶

KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_ATTR (test_name, gen_params, attributes)

A helper for creating a parameterized struct kunit_case with attributes

Parameters

test_name: a reference to a test case function.
gen_params: a reference to a parameter generator function.
attributes: a reference to a struct kunit_attributes object containing test attributes

struct kunit_suite¶: describes a related collection of struct kunit_case

Definition:

struct kunit_suite {
    const char name[256];
    int (*suite_init)(struct kunit_suite *suite);
    void (*suite_exit)(struct kunit_suite *suite);
    int (*init)(struct kunit *test);
    void (*exit)(struct kunit *test);
    struct kunit_case *test_cases;
    struct kunit_attributes attr;
};

Members

name: the name of the test. Purely informational.
suite_init: called once per test suite before the test cases.
suite_exit: called once per test suite after all test cases.
init: called before every test case.
exit: called after every test case.
test_cases: a null terminated array of test cases.
attr: the attributes associated with the test suite

Description

A kunit_suite is a collection of related struct kunit_case s, such that init is called before every test case and exit is called after every test case, similar to the notion of a test fixture or a test class in other unit testing frameworks like JUnit or Googletest.

Note that exit and suite_exit will run even if init or suite_init fail: make sure they can handle any inconsistent state which may result.

Every struct kunit_case must be associated with a kunit_suite for KUnit to run it.

struct kunit¶: represents a running instance of a test.

Definition:

struct kunit {
    void *priv;
};

Members

priv: for user to store arbitrary data. Commonly used to pass data created in the init function (see struct kunit_suite).

Description

Used to store information about the current context under which the test is running. Most of this data is private and should only be accessed indirectly via public functions; the one exception is priv which can be used by the test writer to store arbitrary data.

kunit_test_suites¶

kunit_test_suites (__suites...)

used to register one or more struct kunit_suite with KUnit.

Parameters

__suites...: a statically allocated list of struct kunit_suite.

Description

Registers suites with the test framework. This is done by placing the array of struct kunit_suite * in the .kunit_test_suites ELF section.

When builtin, KUnit tests are all run via the executor at boot, and when built as a module, they run on module load.

kunit_test_init_section_suites¶

kunit_test_init_section_suites (__suites...)

used to register one or more struct kunit_suite containing init functions or init data.

Parameters

__suites...: a statically allocated list of struct kunit_suite.

Description

This functions similar to kunit_test_suites() except that it compiles the list of suites during init phase.

This macro also suffixes the array and suite declarations it makes with _probe; so that modpost suppresses warnings about referencing init data for symbols named in this manner.

Also, do not mark the suite or test case structs with __initdata because they will be used after the init phase with debugfs.

Note

these init tests are not able to be run after boot so there is no “run” debugfs file generated for these tests.

void *kunit_kmalloc_array(struct kunit *test, size_t n, size_t size, gfp_t gfp)¶: Like kmalloc_array() except the allocation is test managed.

Parameters

size_t n: number of elements.
size_t size: The size in bytes of the desired memory.
gfp_t gfp: flags passed to underlying kmalloc().

Description

Just like kmalloc_array(...), except the allocation is managed by the test case and is automatically cleaned up after the test case concludes. See kunit_add_action() for more information.

Note that some internal context data is also allocated with GFP_KERNEL, regardless of the gfp passed in.

void *kunit_kmalloc(struct kunit *test, size_t size, gfp_t gfp)¶: Like kmalloc() except the allocation is test managed.

Parameters

gfp_t gfp: flags passed to underlying kmalloc().

Description

See kmalloc() and kunit_kmalloc_array() for more information.

Note that some internal context data is also allocated with GFP_KERNEL, regardless of the gfp passed in.

void kunit_kfree(struct kunit *test, const void *ptr)¶: Like kfree except for allocations managed by KUnit.

Parameters

struct kunit *test: The test case to which the resource belongs.
const void *ptr: The memory allocation to free.

void *kunit_kzalloc(struct kunit *test, size_t size, gfp_t gfp)¶: Just like kunit_kmalloc(), but zeroes the allocation.

Parameters

size_t size: The size in bytes of the desired memory.
gfp_t gfp: flags passed to underlying kmalloc().
