If we're adding something more complicated to the Kunitconfig files than just raw config entries, there are other things we could do, too (personally, I'd quite like to be able to list KUnit test modules to be loaded someday, though that's a bit outside the scope of this discussion). There are some issues with exactly how we format these that'll need to be resolved: there are cases where there are multiple distinct "areas" that need testing which share a subdirectory (something like lib/), so just using directory paths with one Kunitconfig file per directory has some limitations. At the same time, it's definitely nicer to be able to just specify a directory where that works. Here's what I propose (noting that, realistically, it's unlikely we'll have time to build the perfect system straight away): 1. We've agreed that 'select' isn't the solution we want, so accept this patch to get rid of it, and avoid using it elsewhere (I've done this for the fat test[1]). Do we know if changing this now will seriously break anyone's workflow (particularly if there's something automated that'd break?) 2. Add support to kunit.py for loading an arbitrary kunitconfig, rather than using the default one in the root or build dir. (e.g., kunit.py run [path_to_kunitconfig]). This'd let us create per-subsystem/feature/etc kunitconfigs and use them straight away. This'd still require people to pass in the kunitconfig path each time they run the tests, but'd at least give maintainers a single command they can use and recommend — they'd just need to have a Kunitconfig file somewhere in the tree with the tests they want people to run. Maybe if you pass a directory path, it looks for "Kunitconfig" in that directory, but otherwise it can be a file like "lib/data-structres.Kunitconfig" or something which doesn't correspond to a directory. 3. Add the include support, etc, to kunitconfig, so people working on multiple subsystems can more easily run groups of tests. This may get a little complicated if we care about handling things with conflicting dependencies, so I don't want to hold up the first two on that. How does that sound? -- David [1]: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20201024052047.2526780-1-david...@google.com/

One thing I'd add in addition to your suggestion to that is to change how .kunitconfig is interpreted such that CONFIG_KUNIT=y is always implied, so it doesn't have to be specified explicitly, and that if a line like: fs/ext4 or mm etc. occurs, that will cause a include of the Kunitconfig (I'd using a capitalized version of the filename like Kconfig, so that it's easier to see in a directory listing) in the named directory. That way, .kunitconfig is backwards compatible, but it also allows people to put a one-liner into .kunitconfig to enable the unit tests for that particular directory. What do folks think?

What if we just put kunitconfig fragments in directories along side the test files they enable? For example, we could add a file to fs/ext4/kunitconfig which contains: CONFIG_EXT4_FS=y CONFIG_EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS=y We could do something similar in fs/jdb2, etc. Obviously some logically separate KUnit tests (different maintainers, different Kconfig symbols, etc) reside in the same directory, for these we could name the kunitconfig file something like lib/list-test.kunitconfig (not a great example because lists are always built into Linux), but you get the idea. Then like Ted suggested, if you call kunit.py run foo/bar, then if bar is a directory, then kunit.py will look for foo/bar/kunitconfig if bar is a file ending with .kunitconfig like foo/bar.kunitconfig, then it will use that kunitconfig if bar is '...' (foo/...) then kunit.py will look for all kunitconfigs underneath foo. Once all the kunitconfigs have been resolved, they will be merged into the .kunitconfig. If they can be successfully merged together, the new .kunitconfig will then continue to function as it currently does. What do people think about this?

If you don't enable feature FOO in your kernel. why would you be interested in testing feature FOO? Unless you want to test everything, and you might as well run an allmodconfig kernel. > As far as I'm concerned, ease of use is important enough to justfy > special casing and/or bending the rules as far as "select" is concered > for Kunit-related CONFIG items.

Providing .config snippets containing both the CONFIG_FOO_KUNIT_TESTS and CONFIG_FOO symbols set (and other dependencies, if needed) could provide this, and would also be useful in documenting CONFIG_FOO has a corresponding tests. As kunit can be modular, and most tests can be modular too, I can build all tests relevant for my system as modules. Hence they are available when the need to run them ever arises, while there is no further impact on my system. This use case also seems to be supported by CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS: config KUNIT_ALL_TESTS tristate "All KUnit tests with satisfied dependencies" help Enables all KUnit tests, if they can be enabled. However, this no longer works if this suddenly starts enabling random features in my kernel, which was the case for EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS and MPTCP_KUNIT_TESTS (enables MPTCP, and IPV6!). While ext4 is ubiquitous (I did have it enabled ;-) and may be considered common on all systems (it is not: e.g. embedded systems with JFFS do not need EXT4 enabled), this is surely not the case for other features with tests, and won't be the case for all features that will receive kunit tests in the future.

The primary documentation for 'select' is Documentation/kbuild/kconfig-language.rst, which says: Note: select should be used with care. select will force a symbol to a value without visiting the dependencies. By abusing select you are able to select a symbol FOO even if FOO depends on BAR that is not set. In general use select only for non-visible symbols (no prompts anywhere) and for symbols with no dependencies. That will limit the usefulness but on the other hand avoid the illegal configurations all over. -- ~Randy

So my requirement which led to that particular request is to keep what needs to be placed in .kunitconfig to a small and reasonable set. Per Documentation/dev-tools/kunit, we start by: cd $PATH_TO_LINUX_REPO cp arch/um/configs/kunit_defconfig .kunitconfig we're then supposed to add whatever Kunit tests we want to enable, to wit: CONFIG_EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS=y so that .kunitconfig would look like this: CONFIG_KUNIT=y CONFIG_KUNIT_TEST=y CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=y CONFIG_EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS=y ... and then you should be able to run: ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run ... and have the kunit tests run. I would *not* like to have to put a huge long list of CONFIG_* dependencies into the .kunitconfig file.

[PATCH] ext: EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS should depend on EXT4_FS instead of selecting it
EXT4_KUNIT_TESTS selects EXT4_FS, thus enabling an optional feature the user may not want to enable. Fix this by making the test depend on EXT4_FS instead.
