Hello, this series is part of the larger effort aiming to convert all standalone tests to the CI runners so that they are properly executed on patches submission.
Some of those tests are validating bpftool behavior(test_bpftool_map.sh, test_bpftool_metadata.sh, test_bpftool_synctypes.py, test_bpftool.py...) and so they do not integrate well in test_progs. This series proposes to introduce a new runner to support those tests. This new runner is heavily inspired from test_progs, with slightly less features. - First commit move the assert macros exposed by test_progs into a shared header so that they can be used by the new runner - Second commit introduces the new runner, as well as a first test - Third commit adds a second test - Fourth commit drops the legacy scripts corresponding to those new tests The series only adds the runner, but it is not enough to have it running in CI. The github actions need to be updated both in [1] and [2], and I am not sure how it si supposed to be contributed (the part needed in [1] must likely be integrated in the commit that is systematically brought on top of the bpf-next_base branch). Still, an example of test_bpftool run can be found in [3], in which I have forked and updated the needed Github actions ([4]) [1] https://github.com/kernel-patches/bpf.git [2] https://github.com/libbpf/ci [3] https://github.com/kernel-patches/bpf/pull/10711 [4] https://github.com/Tropicao/libbpf-ci Signed-off-by: Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <[email protected]> --- Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) (4): bpf/selftests: move assert macros into a dedicated header bpf/selftests: introduce bptool test runner and a first test selftests/bpf: add bpftool map manipulations tests selftests/bpf: remove converted bpftool test scripts tools/testing/selftests/bpf/.gitignore | 1 + tools/testing/selftests/bpf/Makefile | 16 +- tools/testing/selftests/bpf/assert_helpers.h | 231 ++++++++++++ tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpftool_helpers.c | 114 ++++++ tools/testing/selftests/bpf/bpftool_helpers.h | 19 + .../testing/selftests/bpf/bpftool_tests/.gitignore | 2 + .../bpf/bpftool_tests/bpftool_maps_access.c | 370 +++++++++++++++++++ .../selftests/bpf/bpftool_tests/bpftool_metadata.c | 128 +++++++ tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_bpftool.c | 126 +++++++ tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_bpftool.h | 36 ++ tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_bpftool_map.sh | 398 --------------------- .../testing/selftests/bpf/test_bpftool_metadata.sh | 85 ----- tools/testing/selftests/bpf/test_progs.h | 226 +----------- 13 files changed, 1041 insertions(+), 711 deletions(-) --- base-commit: 807cd0dc688b0e7314f53dc3a594f247bb3b665b change-id: 20251212-bpftool-tests-bb165c4cceb8 Best regards, -- Alexis Lothoré (eBPF Foundation) <[email protected]>
