Subject: [PATCH v5 linux-kselftest-test 0/6] kunit: support building core/tests as modules

The current kunit execution model is to provide base kunit functionality
and tests built-in to the kernel.  The aim of this series is to allow
building kunit itself and tests as modules.  This in turn allows a
simple form of selective execution; load the module you wish to test.
In doing so, kunit itself (if also built as a module) will be loaded as
an implicit dependency.

Because this requires a core API modification - if a module delivers
multiple suites, they must be declared with the kunit_test_suites()
macro - we're proposing this patch set as a candidate to be applied to the
test tree before too many kunit consumers appear.  We attempt to deal
with existing consumers in patch 3.

Changes since v4:
 - fixed signoff chain to use Co-developed-by: prior to Knut's signoff
   (Stephen, all patches)
 - added Reviewed-by, Tested-by for patches 1, 2, 4 and 6
 - updated comment describing try-catch-impl.h (Stephen, patch 2)
 - fixed MODULE_LICENSEs to be GPL v2 (Stephen, patches 3, 5)
 - added __init to kunit_init() (Stephen, patch 5)

Changes since v3:
 - removed symbol lookup patch for separate submission later
 - removed use of sysctl_hung_task_timeout_seconds (patch 4, as discussed
   with Brendan and Stephen)
 - disabled build of string-stream-test when CONFIG_KUNIT_TEST=m; this
   is to avoid having to deal with symbol lookup issues
 - changed string-stream-impl.h back to string-stream.h (Brendan)
 - added module build support to new list, ext4 tests

Changes since v2:
 - moved string-stream.h header to lib/kunit/string-stream-impl.h (Brendan)
   (patch 1)
 - split out non-exported interfaces in try-catch-impl.h (Brendan)
   (patch 2)
 - added kunit_find_symbol() and KUNIT_INIT_SYMBOL to lookup non-exported
   symbols (patches 3, 4)
 - removed #ifdef MODULE around module licenses (Randy, Brendan, Andy)
   (patch 4)
 - replaced kunit_test_suite() with kunit_test_suites() rather than
   supporting both (Brendan) (patch 4)
 - lookup sysctl_hung_task_timeout_secs as kunit may be built as a module
   and the symbol may not be available (patch 5)

Alan Maguire (6):
  kunit: move string-stream.h to lib/kunit
  kunit: hide unexported try-catch interface in try-catch-impl.h
  kunit: allow kunit tests to be loaded as a module
  kunit: remove timeout dependence on sysctl_hung_task_timeout_seconds
  kunit: allow kunit to be loaded as a module
  kunit: update documentation to describe module-based build
