ktest: Add STOP_TEST_AFTER to stop the test after a period of time

2011-03-08T14:52:59Z

Currently, if a test causes constant output but never reaches a boot prompt, or crashes, the test will never stop. Add STOP_TEST_AFTER to create a variable that will stop (and fail) the test after it has run for this amount of time. The default is 10 minutes. Setting this variable to -1 will disable it.

ktest: Add BISECT_FILES to run git bisect on paths

2011-03-08T14:52:58Z

Add the config option BISECT_FILES that allows the user to specify what path in the kernel to run the git bisect on. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add BISECT_SKIP

2011-03-08T14:52:58Z

If a during a git bisect, ktest fails on something other than what it is testing (if BISECT_TYPE is test but it fails on build), if BISECT_SKIP is set, then it will do a "git bisect skip" instead of just failing the bisect and letting the user find a good commit to test.

ktest: Add manual bisect

2011-03-08T14:52:58Z

For both git bisect and config bisect, if BISECT_MANUAL is set to 1, then bisect will stop between iterations and ask the user for the result. The actual result is ignored. This makes it possible to use ktest.pl for bisecting configs and git and let the user examine the results themselves and enter their own results. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Added force stop after success and failure

2010-11-18T16:23:12Z

Added the options STOP_AFTER_SUCCESS and STOP_AFTER_FAILURE to allow the user to give a time (in seconds) to stop the monitor after a stack trace or login has been detected. Sometimes the kernel constantly prints out to the console and this may cause the test to run indefinitely. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Updated the sample.conf for the latest options

2010-11-18T16:23:11Z

Added documentation for SSH_EXEC, SCP_TO_TARGET, REBOOT, and CONFIG_BISECT and friends. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Update the sample config file with more documentation

ktest: New TEST_START instead of using [], and use real SHA1s

2010-11-18T16:23:09Z

Change the config to use TEST_START where the options after a TEST_START automatically get the [] as it is read and they do not need to exist in the config file; TEST_START MIN_CONFIG = myconfig is the same as MIN_CONFIG[1] = myconfig The benefit is that you no longer need to keep track of test numbers with tests. Also process the commit ids that are passed to the options to get the actually SHA1 so it is no longer relative to the branch. Ie, saying HEAD will get the current SHA1 and then that will be used, and will work even if another branch is checked out. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add poweroff after halt and powercycle after reboot

2010-11-18T16:23:09Z

Added the options POWEROFF_AFTER_HALT to handle boxes that do not really shut off after a halt is called. Added POWERCYCLE_AFTER_REBOOT to force a power cycle for boxes that don't reboot but get stuck during the reboot. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Add POST_INSTALL to allow initrds to be created

2010-11-18T16:23:08Z

Add a POST_INSTALL option that runs after the build and install but before rebooting to the test kernel. This alls the user to run a script that will install an initrd (or anything else that may be special) before booting. An environment variable KERNEL_VERSION is set. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt
