Allow running each suite or each test case alone per kernel boot. The motivation for this is to debug "test hermeticity" issues. This new --run_isolated flag would be a good first step to try and narrow down root causes. Context: sometimes tests pass/fail depending on what ran before them. Memory corruption errors in particular might only cause noticeable issues later on. But you can also have the opposite, where "fixing" one test causes another to start failing. Usage: $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit --run_isolated=suite $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit --run_isolated=test $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit --run_isolated=test example The last one would provide output like ======== [PASSED] example ======== [PASSED] example_simple_test ============================================================ Testing complete. 1 tests run. 0 failed. 0 crashed. 0 skipped. Starting KUnit Kernel (2/3)... ============================================================ ======== [SKIPPED] example ======== [SKIPPED] example_skip_test # SKIP this test should be skipped ============================================================ Testing complete. 1 tests run. 0 failed. 0 crashed. 1 skipped. Starting KUnit Kernel (3/3)... ============================================================ ======== [SKIPPED] example ======== [SKIPPED] example_mark_skipped_test # SKIP this test should be skipped ============================================================ Testing complete. 1 tests run. 0 failed. 0 crashed. 1 skipped. See the last patch's description for a bit more detail. Meta: The first patch is from another series with just a reworded commit message, https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20210805235145.2528054-2-dlatypov@xxxxxxxxxx/ This patch series is based on Shuah's kunit branch: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest.git/?h=kunit Changes: v1 -> v2: rebase onto Shuah's kunit branch, fix missing code in patch 1. v2 -> v3: fix mypy errors, drop test plan from output, fix pre-existing bug where kunit was not actually tracking test execution time (new patch 3). Daniel Latypov (4): kunit: add 'kunit.action' param to allow listing out tests kunit: tool: factor exec + parse steps into a function kunit: tool: actually track how long it took to run tests kunit: tool: support running each suite/test separately lib/kunit/executor.c | 45 ++++++++- tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py | 129 +++++++++++++++++-------- tools/testing/kunit/kunit_tool_test.py | 40 ++++++++ 3 files changed, 169 insertions(+), 45 deletions(-) base-commit: 3b29021ddd10cfb6b2565c623595bd3b02036f33 -- 2.33.0.685.g46640cef36-goog
