ktest: Add make_warnings_file and process full warnings

2013-01-31T15:24:56Z

Although the patchcheck test checks for warnings in the files that were changed, this check does not catch warnings that were caused by header file changes and the warnings appear in C files not touched by the commit. Add a new option called WARNINGS_FILE. If this option is set, then the file it points to is read before bulid, and the file should contain a list of known warnings. If a warning appears in the build, this file is checked, and if the warning does not exist in this file, then it fails the build showing the new warning. If the WARNINGS_FILE points to a file that does not exist, this will cause any warning in the build to fail. A new test is also added called "make_warnings_file". This test will create do a build and record any warnings it finds into the WARNINGS_FILE. This test is something that can be run before other tests to build a warnings file of "known warnings", ie, warnings that were there before your changes. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add native support for syslinux boot loader

2012-12-11T23:18:46Z

I installed Fedora 17 which no longer supports grub v1. I worked with grub2 for a while, but there's so many issues with it and automated rebooting, that I decided to switch to syslinux. Instead of using the REBOOT_SCRIPT and add customized changes to get syslinux booted, I thought it better to make ktest aware of syslinux and add options to simplify the use of syslinux on a target test box.

ktest: Add support for grub2

2012-11-13T19:30:37Z

As only grub or 'script' is supported for rebooting to a new kernel, and Fedora 17 has dropped support for grub, I decided to add grub2 support as well (I also plan on adding syslinux/extlinux support too). The options GRUB_FILE and GRUB_REBOOT were added to allow the user to specify where to find the grub.cfg and what tool to use to reboot into the next kernel respectively.

ktest: Add MAX_MONITOR_WAIT option

2012-07-19T20:05:42Z

If the console is constantly outputting content, this can cause ktest to get stuck waiting on the monitor to settle down. The option MAX_MONITOR_WAIT is the maximum time (in seconds) for ktest to wait for the console to flush. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option

2012-07-19T19:26:00Z

The config-bisect can take a bad config and bisect it down to find out what config actually breaks the config. But as all tests will apply a minconfig (defined by a user) to apply before booting, it is possible that the minconfig could actually make the bad config work (minconfigs can disable configs). The end result is that the config bisect test will not find a config that breaks. This can be rather frustrating to the user. The CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option, when set to 1, will make sure that the bad config (with the minconfig applied) still fails before trying to bisect. And yes, I did get burned by this.

ktest: Add PRE_INSTALL option

2012-07-19T19:22:05Z

Add the PRE_INSTALL option that will allow a user to specify a shell command to be executed before the install operation executes. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add PRE/POST_KTEST and TEST options

2012-07-19T19:18:27Z

In order to let the user add commands before and after ktest runs, the PRE_KTEST and POST_KTEST options are defined. They hold shell commands that will execute befor ktest runs its first test, as well as when it completed its last test. The PRE_TEST and POST_TEST will be run befor and after (respectively) for a given test. They can either be global (done for all tests) or defined by a single test. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to avoid prompt on make_min_config

2012-05-22T04:07:34Z

If the file that OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG exists then ktest.pl will prompt the user and ask them if the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG should be used as the starting point for make_min_config instead of MIN_CONFIG. This is usually the case, and to allow the user to do so, which is helpful if the user is creating different min configs based on tests, and they know one is a superset of another test, they can set USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to one, which will prevent kest.pl from prompting to use the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG and it will just use it. If USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONIFG is set to zero, then ktest.pl will continue to use MIN_CONFIG instead. The default is that USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG is undefined. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add MIN_CONFIG_TYPE to allow making a minum .config that has network

2012-05-21T21:13:40Z

Add a MIN_CONFIG_TYPE that can be set to 'test' or 'boot'. The default is 'boot' which is what make_min_config has done previously: makes a config file that is the minimum needed to boot the target. But when MIN_CONFIG_TYPE is set to 'test', not only must the target boot, but it must also successfully run the TEST. This allows the creation of a config file that is the minimum to boot and also perform ssh to the target, or anything else a developer wants. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
