Pull MM updates from Andrew Morton: "Most of the MM queue. A few things are still pending. Liam's maple tree rework didn't make it. This has resulted in a few other minor patch series being held over for next time. Multi-gen LRU still isn't merged as we were waiting for mapletree to stabilize. The current plan is to merge MGLRU into -mm soon and to later reintroduce mapletree, with a view to hopefully getting both into 6.1-rc1.

selftest: Taint kernel when test module loaded

2022-07-11T22:58:11Z

Make any kselftest test module (using the kselftest_module framework) taint the kernel with TAINT_TEST on module load. Also mark the module as a test module using MODULE_INFO(test, "Y") so that other tools can tell this is a test module. We can't rely solely on this, though, as these test modules are also often built-in. Finally, update the kselftest documentation to mention that the kernel should be tainted, and how to do so manually (as below). Note that several selftests use kernel modules which are not based on the kselftest_module framework, and so will not automatically taint the kernel. This can be done in two ways: - Moving the module to the tools/testing directory. All modules under this directory will taint the kernel. - Adding the 'test' module property with: MODULE_INFO(test, "Y") Similarly, selftests which do not load modules into the kernel generally should not taint the kernel (or possibly should only do so on failure), as it's assumed that testing from user-space should be safe. Regardless, they can write to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted if required. Reviewed-by: Luis Chamberlain Acked-by: Brendan Higgins Signed-off-by: David Gow Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

Documentation: kunit: fix example run_kunit func to allow spaces in args

2022-07-11T22:33:51Z

Without the quoting, the example will mess up invocations like $ run_kunit "Something with spaces" Note: this example isn't valid, but if ever a usecase arises where a flag argument might have spaces in it, it'll break.

Documentation: kunit: Cleanup run_wrapper, fix x-ref

2022-07-08T17:36:03Z

The "Run Tests on qemu" section of run_wrapper.rst had a few issues left over from the last big documentation refactor[1]: - It referenced a non_uml.rst page, which was integrated into the other pages (including run_wrapper.rst). - It skimmed over the use of --arch= and --cross_compile= in favour of using a custom --qemu_config. Since most users will want to use the former, let's give examples. Remove the reference to the non-existant page, and add a couple of examples to encourage the use of --arch= and --cross_compile=. With this change, there should be no more broken references in the KUnit documentation (i.e., the one mentioned in [2] is gone).

kunit: add coverage_uml.config to enable GCOV on UML

2022-07-08T00:06:36Z

Now that kunit.py's --kunitconfig is repeatable, let's create a file to hold the various options needed to enable coverage under UML. This can be used like so: $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \ --kunitconfig=tools/testing/kunit/configs/all_tests_uml.config \ --kunitconfig=tools/testing/kunit/configs/coverage_uml.config \ --make_options=CC=/usr/bin/gcc-6 which on my system is enough to get coverage working [1]. This is still a clunky command, but far better than before. [1] at the time of this commit, I get: Overall coverage rate: lines......: 11.6% (34112 of 295033 lines) functions..: 15.3% (3721 of 24368 functions) Signed-off-by: Daniel Latypov Reviewed-by: David Gow Reviewed-by: Brendan Higgins Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan
