Hi all,

This is part of a hackathon organized by LKCAMP[1], focused on writing
tests using KUnit. We reached out a while ago asking for advice on what
would be a useful contribution[2] and ended up choosing data structures
that did not yet have tests.

This patch adds tests for the llist data structure, defined in
include/linux/llist.h, and is inspired by the KUnit tests for the doubly
linked list in lib/list-test.c[3].

It is important to note that this patch depends on the patch referenced
in [4], as it utilizes the newly created lib/tests/ subdirectory.

Changes in v3:
- Resolved checkpatch warnings:
- Renamed tests for macros starting with 'for_each'
- Removed link from commit message
- Replaced hardcoded constants with ENTRIES_SIZE
- Updated initialization of llist_node array
- Fixed typos
- Update Kconfig.debug message for llist_kunit

Changes in v2:
- Add MODULE_DESCRIPTION()
- Move the tests from lib/llist_kunit.c to lib/tests/llist_kunit.c
- Change the license from "GPL v2" to "GPL"

Add KUnit tests for the llist data structure. They test the vast
majority of methods and macros defined in include/linux/llist.h.

These are inspired by the existing tests for the 'list' doubly
linked in lib/list-test.c. Each test case (llist_test_x) tests
the behaviour of the llist function/macro 'x'.

You are combining lot of changes in one single patch. Each change as a separate
patch will help reviewers.

Adding new test should be a separate patch.

- renaming as a separate patch

Hi, thanks for the reply!

I'm not sure if I understood your concerns ...

In this patch, I'm adding the entire test suite for the lock-less list
data structure, which is the primary reason for its larger size. The
changes in V2 and V3 were made in response to code review suggestions
from previous iterations.

However, as a big patch I see how this cause an annoyance to review. I'm
open to any suggestions on how I can reduce its size or make the review
process more manageable.

Best regards,
- Artur

I think that, if this were renaming these in an already existing test
(like the confusingly similar list test), then yes. But since it's
only a change from v2, I think we're okay.

Again, if we want to change this in other tests (list, hlist) we
should split it into a separate patch, but I think it's okay for llist
to go in with these already cleaned up.

I think these are all changes to the added code since v2. Artur, is that right?

I think given that these are just changes between patch versions, not
renaming/modifying already committed code, that this is okay to go in
as one patch?

The actual patch is only doing one thing: adding a test suite for the
llist structure. I don't see the point in committing a version of it
only to immediately rename things and clean bits up separately in this
case.

I do think it will help to separate the renaming and adding a new test.
It makes it easier to follow.

Yes, the renaming refers to some test cases from the test suite that I'm
adding, with the purpose of resolving some checkpatch warnings, as
suggested by Rae Moar's review[1].

This is the case! All changes are in the added code, so it doesn't
introduce any checkpatch warnings that were present in v2.

Thanks for replying!

I'd like to reaffirm that the patch is, in fact, doing one thing: adding
tests for the llist data structure. All the changes in V2 and V3 refer
to the code that I'm adding. I'm not modifying any existing list tests,
only adding new ones.

Hi, Shuah!

The renaming is in the test suite that I'm adding, as suggested by Rae
Moar[1]. I'm not modifying any existing code; all my changes are in the
new code that I'm adding.

I'm sorry, but it isn't clear to me. Could you please provide an example
of what you're suggesting?

Would you prefer that I undo the renaming, submit the patch with the
checkpatch warnings, and then follow up with a new patch to rename the
test cases and resolve the warnings?

Sounds good to me. It was a bit confusing because the v2 and v3 change
new and code which wasn't clear to me.

thanks,

Hello!

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. We have been busy with
LPC. This looks good to me!

I just have one comment left: the patch to add the lib/tests directory
hasn't landed in the kselftest/kunit branch so this patch doesn't
apply cleanly. Since we are planning on taking this patch through that
branch, could you switch the files to be lib/Makefile and
lib/llist_kunit.c for now. And we can move them in the great migration
later.

But otherwise,

Thanks!

Always nice to see more list tests!
