selftests: change install command to rsync

2015-09-14T22:43:51+00:00

The command of install could not handle the special files in exec
testcases, change the default rule to rsync to fix this.

The installation is unchanged after this commit.

selftests/ftrace: install test.d

2015-05-26T21:58:06+00:00

The ftrace test requires the directory test.d and all of it's contents to be
present during execution. Use TEST_DIRS to ensure this is copied to the
INSTALL_PATH.

ftracetest: Do not use usleep directly

2015-04-03T15:16:32+00:00

The usleep is only provided on distros from Redhat so running ftracetest
on other distro resulted in failures due to the missing usleep.

The reason of using [u]sleep in the test was to generate (scheduler)
events.  It can be done various ways like this:

yield() {  ping localhost -c 1 || sleep .001 || usleep 1 || sleep 1; }

ftracetest: Convert exit -1 to exit $FAIL

2015-03-31T16:15:46+00:00

POSIX says that exit takes an unsigned integer between 0 and 255, so
using -1 doesn't work on POSIX shells.

There is already a well-defined failure code, $FAIL (1), so use that.

ftracetest: Cope properly with stack tracer not being enabled

2015-03-31T16:15:36+00:00

If the stack tracer (CONFIG_STACK_TRACER) is disabled, the
fgraph-filter-stack test blows chunks:

  [8] ftrace - function graph filters with stack tracer	[FAIL]
  + reset_tracer
  + echo nop
  ./ftracetest: 19: /home/michael/selftests/ftrace/test.d/ftrace/fgraph-filter-stack.tc:
  	cannot create /proc/sys/kernel/stack_tracer_enabled: Directory nonexistent

Fix it by checking if the proc file exists before echoing to it. With
the patch applied it fails correctly with:

  [8] ftrace - function graph filters with stack tracer	[UNSUPPORTED]

selftests: Introduce minimal shared logic for running tests

2015-03-13T21:13:40+00:00

This adds a Make include file which most selftests can then include to
get the run_tests logic.

On its own this has the advantage of some reduction in repetition, and
also means the pass/fail message is defined in fewer places.

However the key advantage is it will allow us to implement install very
simply in a subsequent patch.

The default implementation just executes each program in $(TEST_PROGS).

We use a variable to hold the default implementation of $(RUN_TESTS)
because that gives us a clean way to override it if necessary, ie. using
override. The mount, memory-hotplug and mqueue tests use that to provide
a different implementation.

Tests are not run via /bin/bash, so if they are scripts they must be
executable, we add a+x to several.

ftracetest: Add --verbose option for showing echo output

2014-12-04T15:40:34+00:00

Add --verbose/-v option for showing echo output in testcases.
This is good for checking the progress of testcases which
take a longer time to run.

To implement this feature, all the testcase failures are
captured in ftracetest and send signal to set SIG_RESULT=FAIL.

ftracetest: Fix to show descriptions on dash

2014-12-04T15:38:49+00:00

The ftracetest doesn't show testcase's descriptions when
it is executed on dash. This fixes that to show the
descriptions on dash correctly by passing it via a variable
instead of directly passing the grep command output.

ftracetest: Clear trace buffer after running kprobe testcases

2014-11-06T13:39:39+00:00

The kprobe testcases create, use and delete dynamic events during the
test but didn't clear the trace buffer so it'll leave the result after
it finishes.
