Pull kselftest KUnit support gtom Shuah Khan: "This adds KUnit, a lightweight unit testing and mocking framework for the Linux kernel from Brendan Higgins. KUnit is not an end-to-end testing framework. It is currently supported on UML and sub-systems can write unit tests and run them in UML env. KUnit documentation is included in this update. In addition, this Kunit update adds 3 new kunit tests: - proc sysctl test from Iurii Zaikin - the 'list' doubly linked list test from David Gow - ext4 tests for decoding extended timestamps from Iurii Zaikin In the future KUnit will be linked to Kselftest framework to provide a way to trigger KUnit tests from user-space" * tag 'linux-kselftest-5.5-rc1-kunit' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/shuah/linux-kselftest: (23 commits) lib/list-test: add a test for the 'list' doubly linked list ext4: add kunit test for decoding extended timestamps Documentation: kunit: Fix verification command kunit: Fix '--build_dir' option kunit: fix failure to build without printk MAINTAINERS: add proc sysctl KUnit test to PROC SYSCTL section kernel/sysctl-test: Add null pointer test for sysctl.c:proc_dointvec() MAINTAINERS: add entry for KUnit the unit testing framework Documentation: kunit: add documentation for KUnit kunit: defconfig: add defconfigs for building KUnit tests kunit: tool: add Python wrappers for running KUnit tests kunit: test: add tests for KUnit managed resources kunit: test: add the concept of assertions kunit: test: add tests for kunit test abort kunit: test: add support for test abort objtool: add kunit_try_catch_throw to the noreturn list kunit: test: add initial tests lib: enable building KUnit in lib/ kunit: test: add the concept of expectations kunit: test: add assertion printing library ...
