Hi, Here is a series for adding "requires:" list for simplifying and unifying requirement checks for each test case. This series also includes the description line fix and unresolved -> unsupported change ([1/7] and [2/7]). Currently, we have many similar requirement checker to find unconfigured or unsupported (in older kernels) feature in each test case. I think it is a good time to unify those similar checks. As same as "description:" or "flags:" line, this series introduces new "requires:" line, and convert current checking code intor the "requires:" line. This requires line gives some good effects, not only simplyfies the code, but also unifies the reason message, and because it checks the requirements before running the testc ase, it skips unneeded ftrace initialization. The requires line supports following checks - tracefs interface check: Check whether the given file or directory in the tracefs. (No suffix) [3/7],[4/7],[5/7] - available tracer check: Check whether the given tracer is available (":tracer" suffix) [6/7] - README feature check: Check whether the given string is in the README (":README" suffix) [7/7] Note that since the requires line returns UNSUPPORTED error, the requirements must be one of ftrace feature, but not the user-space environmental requirement. If there is some issue in user-space (e.g. lack of the command, modules, etc) it must report UNRESOLVED error. Since this series depends on following 2 commits, commit 619ee76f5c9f ("selftests/ftrace: Return unsupported if no error_log file") on Shuah's Kselftest tree commit bea24f766efc ("selftests/ftrace: Distinguish between hist and synthetic event checks") on Steven's Tracing tree This can be applied on the tree which merged both of them. Also, you can get the series from the following. git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/mhiramat/linux.git ftracetest-requires-v1 Thank you, --- Masami Hiramatsu (7): selftests/ftrace: Allow
