This patch chain changes the logging implementation to use string_stream so that the log will grow dynamically. The first 8 patches add test code for string_stream, and make some changes to string_stream needed to be able to use it for the log. The final patch adds a performance report of string_stream. CHANGES SINCE V5: Patch 2: - Avoid cast warning when using KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() on a gfp_t. Instead pass the result of the comparison to KUNIT_EXPECT_TRUE(). While it would be nice to use KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(), it's probably better to avoid introducing build or sparse warnings. - In string_stream_append_test() rename original_content to stream1_content_before_append. Patch 7: - Make string_stream_clear() public (in v5 this was done in patch #8). - In string-stream-test.c add a wrapper for kfree() to prevent a cast warning when calling kunit_add_action(). Patch 8: - Fix memory leak when calling the redirected string_stream_destroy_stub(). Patch 9: - In kunit-test.c: add wrapper function around kfree() to prevent cast warning when calling kunit_add_action(). - Fix unused variable warning in kunit_log_test() when built as a module.
