This kselftest next update for Linux 6.9-rc1 consists of:
-- livepatch restructuring to move the module out of lib to be
built as a out-of-tree modules during kselftest build. This
change makes it easier change, debug and rebuild the tests by
running make on the selftests/livepatch directory, which is not
currently possible since the modules on lib/livepatch are build
and installed using the main makefile modules target.
-- livepatch restructuring fixes for problems found by kernel test
robot. The change skips the test if kernel-devel isn't installed
(default value of KDIR), or if KDIR variable passed doesn't exists.
-- resctrl test restructuring and new non-contiguous CBMs CAT test
-- new ktap_helpers to print diagnostic messages, pass/fail tests
based on exit code, abort test, and finish the test.
-- a new test verify power supply properties.
-- a new ftrace to exercise function tracer across cpu hotplug.
-- timeout increase for mqueue test to allow the test to run on
i3.metal AWS instances.
-- minor spelling corrections in several tests.
-- missing gitignore files and changes to existing gitignore files.

==================== Livepatch Self Tests ==================== This is a small set of sanity tests for the kernel livepatching. The test suite loads and unloads several test kernel modules to verify livepatch behavior. Debug information is logged to the kernel's message buffer and parsed for expected messages. (Note: the tests will compare the message buffer for only the duration of each individual test.) Config ------ Set CONFIG_LIVEPATCH=y option and it's prerequisites. Building the tests ------------------ To only build the tests without running them, run: % make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch The command above will compile all test modules and test programs, making them ready to be packaged if so desired. Running the tests ----------------- Test kernel modules are built before running the livepatch selftests. The modules are located under test_modules directory, and are built as out-of-tree modules. This is specially useful since the same sources can be built and tested on systems with different kABI, ensuring they the tests are backwards compatible. The modules will be loaded by the test scripts using insmod. To run the livepatch selftests, from the top of the kernel source tree: % make -C tools/testing/selftests TARGETS=livepatch run_tests or % make kselftest TARGETS=livepatch Adding tests ------------ See the common functions.sh file for the existing collection of utility functions, most importantly setup_config(), start_test() and check_result(). The latter function greps the kernel's ring buffer for "livepatch:" and "test_klp" strings, so tests be sure to include one of those strings for result comparison. Other utility functions include general module loading and livepatch loading helpers (waiting for patch transitions, sysfs entries, etc.)
