We would really appreciate some input on the test plan. :) > This proposal sounds similar to the work I have done in the past. I have been thinking about proposing to use this framework for sysfs and procfs files and add it to Kselftest. Kind of stayed on my back-burner for a bit. Can you please take a look at https://github.com/shuahkh/linalyse and see if that would work as base for the work you are proposing. For example: One of the options takes an input file with list of required files. Each line specifies a file and data range. It checks if files exist. If file is a regular files, it will check the contents. Each line in the input file has comma separated fields. e.g: /sys/class/backlight/*/max_brightness,4000,5000 The above will expand to find all max_brightness file. Data is compared to be within the range: 4000 < data < 5000 /sys/class/backlight/*/max_brightness,4000, The above will expand to find all max_brightness file. Data in the file is matched to 4000. I was using this to regression test my test systems for a while back. thanks, -- Shuah -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kselftest" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
