Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 4c16b1d6d5 ktest: Update documentation on config_bisect
With the more robust config_bisect, the documentation is out of
date and needs to be updated.

The new rewrite allows for finding missing configs and such, and
is much more robust to use.

After the rewrite of the config bisect, there were several unused
functions that can be removed.

One of the unused functions printed out the failed config nicer than
what the rewrite did, so I kept that and used it to output the
bad config.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) c4d1d11f3b ktest: Put back in the CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK
The new rewrite left out the CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK, which allows the
user to test that their "bad" config still is bad and their "good"
config still is good. This is especially important as the configs
are passed through a "make oldconfig" to update them with the lastest
kernel. Things could change that causes a bad config to work, or a
good config to break. The check is done after the configs have run
through the oldconfig processing.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 6071c22e17 ktest: Rewrite the config-bisect to actually work
I never liked the way config-bisect worked. I would assume the bad config
had some config that broke the system. But it would not work if the bad
config just happened to be missing something that the good config had.

I rewrote the config-bisect to do this properly. It does a diff of the two
configs, and sets half of the configs that are in one and not the other.
The way it works is that when it "sets", it really just makes one copy
what the other has. That is, a "set" can be setting a:

  # CONFIG_FOO is not set

Basically, it looks at the differences between the two files and makes
them similar until it comes down to one config that makes it work or
not work depending on if it is set or not.

Note, if more than one config change makes the bad config not work, it
will only find one of them. But this is true with all bisect logic.

Satoru Takeuchi 5269faad27 ktest: Some cleanup for improving readability
Some cleanup for improving readability as follows.

  - Initialize $ktest_config at its definition.
  - Put parentheses around the `config-file' argument in the usage message
    because it's a optional one.
  - Rename get_ktest_config{,s} to more descriptive get_mandatory_config{,s}.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 961d9cacee ktest: Add BISECT_TRIES to bisect test
For those cases that it takes several tries to hit a bug, it would be
useful for ktest.pl to try a test multiple times before it considers
the test as a pass. To accomplish this, BISECT_TRIES ktest config
option has been added. It is default to one, as most of the time a
bisect only needs to try a test once. But the user can now up this
to make ktest run a given test multiple times. The first failure
that is detected will set a bisect bad. It only repeats on success.

Note, as with all race bugs, there's no guarantee that if it succeeds,
it is really a good bisect. But it helps in case the bug is somewhat
reliable.

You can set BISECT_TRIES to zero, and all tests will be considered
good, unless you also set BISECT_MANUAL.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) c75d22d9c6 ktest: Add eval '=~' command to modify variables in config file
With the added variable ${KERNEL_VERSION}, it is useful to be
able to use parts of it for other variables.

For example, if you want to create a warnings file for each major
kernel version to test sub versions against you can create
your warnings file with like this:

  WARNINGS_FILE = warnings-file-${KERNEL_VERSION}

But this may add 3.8.12 or something, and we want all 3.8.* to
use the same file, and 3.10.* to use another file, and so on.
With the eval command we can, by adding:

  WARNINGS_FILE =~ s/(-file-\d+\.\d+).*/$1/

Which will chop off the extra characters after the 3.8.

Satoru Takeuchi 5a5d8e4844 ktest: Make the signal to terminate the console configurable
Currently ktest sends SIGINT to terminate the console.
 However, there are consoles which do not exit by this signal, for example,
 in my case, "virsh console <guest OS>". In such case, ktest is blocked in
 close_console(). It prevents this automate test.

This patch adds new option CLOSE_CONSOLE_SIGNAL which mean the
signal to terminate the console. Since its default value is "INT",
the original behavior isn't changed.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 4c0b67a27d ktest: Ignore warnings during reboot
The reboot just wants to get to the next kernel. But if a warning (Call

think something went wrong and power cycle the box, even though we
successfully made it to the next kernel.

Ignore warnings during the reboot until we get to the next kernel. It
will still timeout if we never get to the next kernel and then a power
cycle will happen. That's what we want it to do.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) d684553623 ktest: Search for linux banner for successful reboot
Sometimes when a test kernel passed fine, but on reboot it crashed,
ktest could get stuck and not proceed. This would be frustrating if you
let a test run overnight to find out the next morning that it was stuck
on the first test.

To fix this, I made reboot check for the REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE. If the
line was not detected, then it would power cycle the box.

What it didn't cover was if the REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE wasn't defined or if
a 'good' kernel did not display the line. Instead have it search for the
Linux banner "Linux version". The reboot just needs to get to the start
of the next kernel, it does not need to test if the next kernel makes it
to a boot prompt.

After we find the next kernel has booted, then we just wait for either
the REBOOT_SUCCESS_LINE to appear or the timeout.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 4283b169ab ktest: Add make_warnings_file and process full warnings
Although the patchcheck test checks for warnings in the files that were
changed, this check does not catch warnings that were caused by header
file changes and the warnings appear in C files not touched by the
commit.

Add a new option called WARNINGS_FILE. If this option is set, then the
file it points to is read before bulid, and the file should contain a
list of known warnings. If a warning appears in the build, this file is
checked, and if the warning does not exist in this file, then it fails
the build showing the new warning.

If the WARNINGS_FILE points to a file that does not exist, this will
cause any warning in the build to fail.

A new test is also added called "make_warnings_file". This test will
create do a build and record any warnings it finds into the
WARNINGS_FILE. This test is something that can be run before other tests
to build a warnings file of "known warnings", ie, warnings that were
there before your changes.

Steven Rostedt (Red Hat) 04262be3db ktest: Allow a test option to use its default option
Options are allowed to use other options, for example:

  LOG_FILE = ${OUTPUT_DIR}/${MACHINE}.log

where the option LOG_FILE used the options OUTPUT_DIR and MACHINE.

But if a test option were to use a default option, it will not get
substituted:

  OUTPUT_DIR = ${THIS_DIR}/${MACHINE}

  TEST_START
  OUTPUT_DIR = ${OUTPUT_DIR}/t1

For the above test, OUTPUT_DIR will stay literally "${OUTPUT_DIR}/t1"
and not be converted to "${THIS_DIR}/${MACHINE}/t1". When the test runs,
it will pass the ${OUTPUT_DIR} to the shell, which would probaly
interpret it as "", and the output directory will end up as "/t1".

Change the code where if a test option has its own option name in
its defined field, and a default option exists, then substitute the
default option in its place.

Sometimes a test kernel will crash or hang on reboot (this is even more
apparent when testing a config without CGROUPS on a box running
systemd). When this happens, on the next iteration of installing a

Have ktest do a check to see if the target can be connected to via ssh

Steven Rostedt 8bc5e4ea3e ktest: Fix ktest confusion with CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA
In order to decide if ktest should bother installing modules on the
target box, it checks if the config file has CONFIG_MODULES=y. But it
also checks if the '=y' part exists. It only will install modules if the
config exists and is set with '=y'. But as the regex that was used
tests:

  /^CONFIG_MODULES(=y)?/

this will also match:

  CONFIG_MODULES_USE_ELF_RELA

as the '=y' part was optional and it did not test the rest of the line.
When this happens, ktest will stop checking the rest of the configs but
it will also think that no modules are needed to be installed. What it
should do is only jump out of the loop if it actually found a
CONFIG_MODULES that is set to true.

Otherwise, ktest wont install the necessary modules needed for proper
booting of the test target.

Steven Rostedt 95f5783841 ktest: Fix ELSE IF statements
The ELSE IF statements do not work as expected if another ELSE statement
follows. This is because the $if_set is not set. If the ELSE IF
condition is true, the following ELSE should be ignored. But because the
$if_set is not set, the following ELSE will also be executed.

Steven Rostedt 9b1d367dbb ktest: Ignore errors it tests if IGNORE_ERRORS is set
The option IGNORE_ERRORS is used to allow a test to succeed even if a
warning appears from the kernel. Sometimes kernels will produce warnings
that are not associated with a test, and the user wants to test
something else.

The IGNORE_ERRORS works for boot up, but was not preventing test runs to
succeed if the kernel produced a warning.

Steven Rostedt c1434dcc57 ktest: Reset saved min (force) configs for each test
The min configs are saved in a perl hash called force_configs, and this
hash is used to add configs to the .config file. But it was not being
reset between tests and a min config from a previous test would affect
the min config of the next test causing undesirable results.

Reset the force_config hash at the start of each test.

Steven Rostedt 8a80c72711 ktest: Add check for bug or panic during reboot
Usually the target is booted into a dependable kernel when a test
starts. The test will install the test kernel and reboot the box. But
there may be a time that the kernel is running an unreliable kernel and
the reboot may crash.

Have ktest detect crashes on a reboot and force a power-cycle instead.

This can usually happen if a test kernel was installed to run manual
tests, but the user forgot to reboot to the known good kernel.

Steven Rostedt cf79fab676 ktest: Fix config bisect with how make oldnoconfig works
With a name like 'oldnoconfig' one may think that the config generated
would disable all configs that were not defined (selecting "no" for all
options). But this is not the case. It selects the default. If a config
has a 'default y', then it is added if not specified.

This broke the config bisect, because options not specified by a config
will just use the default, where it expected to turn off. This caused an
option to be enabled that disabled an option that would break the build.
The end result was that we never found the bad config at the end of the
test.

Instead of using 'make oldnoconfig', ktest now builds the options it
expects enabled and disabled. When it turns off an option, it will no
longer remove it, but actually set it to:

 # CONFIG_FOO is not set.

Steven Rostedt b091861254 ktest: Add CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option
The config-bisect can take a bad config and bisect it down to find out
what config actually breaks the config. But as all tests will apply a
minconfig (defined by a user) to apply before booting, it is possible
that the minconfig could actually make the bad config work (minconfigs
can disable configs). The end result is that the config bisect test will
not find a config that breaks. This can be rather frustrating to the
user.

The CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option, when set to 1, will make sure that the
bad config (with the minconfig applied) still fails before trying to
bisect.

And yes, I did get burned by this.
