test_firmware: add test custom fallback trigger

2017-01-25T10:52:34Z

We have no custom fallback mechanism test interface. Provide one. This tests both the custom fallback mechanism and cancelling the it. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

test_firmware: use device attribute groups

2017-01-25T10:52:34Z

This simplifies init and exit. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

test_firmware: move misc_device down

2017-01-25T10:52:34Z

This will make further changes easier to review. Signed-off-by: Luis R. Rodriguez Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman

test: firmware_class: add asynchronous request trigger

2016-01-07T20:44:22Z

We might want to test for bugs like that found in commit f9692b2699bd ("firmware: fix possible use after free on name on asynchronous request"), where the asynchronous request API had race conditions. Let's add a simple file that will launch the async request, then wait until it's complete and report the status. It's not a true async test (we're using a mutex + wait_for_completion(), so we can't get more than one going at the same time), but it does help make sure the basic API is sane, and it can catch some class of bugs.

test: firmware_class: use kstrndup() where appropriate

2016-01-07T20:43:28Z

We're essentially just doing an open-coded kstrndup(). The only differences are with what happens after the first '\0' character, but request_firmware() doesn't care about that. Suggested-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Brian Norris Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan

test: firmware_class: report errors properly on failure

2016-01-07T20:41:22Z

request_firmware() failures currently won't get reported at all (the error code is discarded). What's more, we get confusing messages, like: # echo -n notafile > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/test_firmware/trigger_request [ 8280.311856] test_firmware: loading 'notafile' [ 8280.317042] test_firmware: load of 'notafile' failed: -2 [ 8280.322445] test_firmware: loaded: 0 # echo $? 0 Report the failures via write() errors, and don't say we "loaded" anything.

test: add firmware_class loader test

2014-07-18T01:44:19Z

This provides a simple interface to trigger the firmware_class loader to test built-in, filesystem, and user helper modes. Additionally adds tests via the new interface to the selftests tree. Signed-off-by: Kees Cook Signed-off-by: Greg Kroah-Hartman
