So, my impression is that adding code to the internals to test the internals isn't a valid test (or at least makes it fragile) because the test would depend on the changes to the internals (or at least depend on non-default non-production CONFIGs). Can you send a patch for what you think this should look like? Perhaps I'm not correctly imagining what you're describing? Regardless of testing, I think this series is ready for -mm. -- Kees Cook
