[PATCH net-next v23 1/7] mm: page_frag: add a test module for page_frag
Posted by Yunsheng Lin 3 weeks, 6 days ago
The testing is done by ensuring that the fragment allocated
from a frag_frag_cache instance is pushed into a ptr_ring
instance in a kthread binded to a specified cpu, and a kthread
binded to a specified cpu will pop the fragment from the
ptr_ring and free the fragment.

This is breaking the build in -next on at least arm64 and x86_64 since
it's trying to build an out of tree kernel module which is included in
the selftests directory, the kselftest build system just isn't set up to
do that in a sensible and robust fashion.  The module should probably be
in the main kernel tree and enabled by the config file for the mm tests.

KernelCI sees:

(see https://storage.kernelci.org/next/master/next-20241114/x86_64/x86_64_defconfig%2Bkselftest/gcc-12/logs/kselftest.log)

and I've seen:

  ERROR: Kernel configuration is invalid.
         include/generated/autoconf.h or include/config/auto.conf are missing.

Hi,

I tried the below kernel modules in the testing directory, they seemed to
have the similar problem if the kernel is not compiled yet.

As discussed in [1], this module is not really a vaild kernel module by
returning '-EAGAIN', which is the main reason that it is setup in the
selftests instead of the main kernel tree.

As above, I am not sure if there is some elegant way to avoid the above error
in the selftest core, one possible way to avoid the above error is to skip
compiling like below as tools/testing/selftests/mm/test_page_frag.sh already
skip the testing for page_frag if the test module is not compiled:

This is not included in the top level selftests Makefile.

The BPF tests aren't built as standard due to a number of issues,
originally it was requiring very shiny toolchains though that's starting
to get under control.

> make -C tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/test_modules/

Ah, this one is actually using some framework support for building
modules - it's putting the modules in a separate directory and using
TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR.  Crucially, though, it has guards which ensure that
we don't try to build the modules if KDIR doesn't exist - you should
follow that pattern.

Sure, we have other test stuff in the main kernel.

Since the tests currently don't build the test systems are by and by
large not getting as far as trying to run anything, the entire mm suite
is just getting skipped.

Will add a checking whether to build the test modules around the
TEST_GEN_MODS_DIR setup to avoid rsync copy error when the test module
compiling need to be skipped.

I just sent a fix for above, it would be good if you can test it if it
fixes the above problem.

I tested it with both latest net-next main kernel and older host kernel,
it seems to work.

Yunsheng, please try to resolve this ASAP, or just send a revert
removing the selftest for now. We can't ship net-next to Linus breaking
other subsystem's selftests, and merge window will likely open next
week.

Sure, Let me try to fix first, the revert can be used as last resort.

A possible fix is sent in [1], but somehow I missed to add the netdev
ML for that:(
