ktest: Allow a test to override REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS

2012-03-21T15:18:27Z

The option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS is global, and will have the machine reboot the the box if all tests are successful. But a test may not want the machine to reboot, and perhaps have the kernel it loaded be used to install the next kernel. Or the last test may set up a kernel that the user may want to look at. In this case, the user could have the global option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS be true, but if a test is defined to run at the end, that test can override the global option and keep the kernel it installed for the user to log in with.

ktest: Fix SWITCH_TO_GOOD to also reboot the machine

2012-03-21T12:24:57Z

When the option SWITCH_TO_GOOD is set, it will be called when the system needs to reboot to the good server. But currently, this keeps the reboot from happening. The SWITCH_TO_GOOD is just a way to get to a new kernel, it may not mean to not reboot. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add SCP_TO_TARGET_INSTALL option

2012-03-21T12:21:24Z

Currently the option used to scp both the modules to the target as well as the kernel image are the same (SCP_TO_TARGET). But some embedded boards may require them to be different. The modules may need to be put directly on the board, but the kernel image may need to go to a tftpserver. Add the option SCP_TO_TARGET_INSTALL that will allow the user to change the config so that they may have the modules and image got to different machines. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add warning when bugs are ignored

2012-03-21T12:18:35Z

When IGNORE_ERRORS is set, ktest will not fail a test if a backtrace is detected. But this can be an issue if the user added it in the config but forgot to remove it. They may be left wondering why their test did not fail, or even worse, why their bisect gave the wrong commit. Add a warning in the output if IGNORE_WARNINGS is set, and ktest detects a kernel error.

ktest: Add INSTALL_MOD_STRIP=1 when installing modules

2012-03-21T12:16:15Z

To keep the modules from bloating the target's filesystem strip them during the install. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

Merge tag 'ktest-fix-make-min-failed-build-for-real' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest

2012-02-27T23:43:05Z

While demoing ktest at ELC in 2012, it was embarrassing that the make_min_config test failed to work because the snowball board I was testing it against had a config that would not build. But the make_min_config only tested the testing part and ignored build failures. The end result was a config file that would not boot. This time, for real. * tag 'ktest-fix-make-min-failed-build-for-real' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest: ktest: Fix make_min_config test when build fails

ktest: Fix make_min_config test when build fails

2012-02-27T18:58:49Z

The make_min_config does not take into account when the build fails, resulting in a invalid MIN_CONFIG .config file. When the build fails, it is ignored and the boot test is executed, using the previous built kernel. The configs that should be tested are not tested and they may be added or removed depending on the result of the last kernel that succeeded to be built. If the build fails, mark the current config as a failure and the configs that were disabled may still be needed. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
