FYI, there is a patch for kunit_tool which will allow kernel parameters to be passed through: https://patchwork.kernel.org/project/linux-kselftest/patch/20210715160819.1107685-1-dlatypov@xxxxxxxxxx/ That being said, no-one's ever used any of the KUnit tooling for performance testing before, as far as I know, so whether or not it turns out to be useful or not remains to be seen. With this patch, it'd at least be an option if you wanted to try it. -- David
