Hi Kees,

Thanks for the patch.

In order to improve the reusability of the kselftest test running logic,
this extracts the single-test logic from lib.mk into kselftest/runner.sh
which lib.mk can call directly. No changes in output.

As part of the change, this removes the unused "summary" Makefile variable
(and tests). However, future merging with the "emit_tests" target needs
to be able to redirect output, so a new "logfile" variable is introduced.

Shouldn't the selftests/Makefile need update for "summary" removal??


I didn't see anything using "summary" except as a --summary argument
to the run_kselftests.sh script. Maybe I missed it?


It is in the selftests/Makefile install target.

Right: it's used only by the run_kselftest.sh script:

ALL_SCRIPT := $(INSTALL_PATH)/run_kselftest.sh

install:
...
         echo "if [ \"\$$1\" = \"--summary\" ]; then" >> $(ALL_SCRIPT)


So, I think this entire series can land. Is there other feedback I
should incorporate? I'd like to see it get some -next testing...

Thanks!



Kees,

Yes I was planning to get this into next and did some testing. I found
that the first patch breaks the summary option.

You can see it by running

make summary=1 TARGETS="breakpoints" kselftest

with and without your first patch. Ca you fix the regression and send
me revised patches. Sorry, I didn't get back to you sooner. A few bugs
I found kept me busy.

While I was testing your patch series, I found test build failures due
to circular dependency that needed fixing. In addition, the same
headers_install dependency, also broke O= and KBUILD_OUTPUT builds
and fixed those as well. Long story short, these fixes might conflict
with your work.

thanks,
