Hi all,

Just giving this thread a polite bump, hoping that someone has some pointers.

The TL;DR is the following: I’m trying to run KASan KUnit tests with the 
following local .kunitconfig:

	CONFIG_KUNIT=y
	CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=n
	CONFIG_FTRACE=y
	CONFIG_KASAN=y
	CONFIG_KASAN_GENERIC=y
	CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST=y

The problem is that on arm64, this does not appear to be enough to set all of 
CONFIG_KASAN_KUNIT_TEST’s dependencies, namely CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS.

An additional option is needed to enable CONFIG_TRACEPOINTS. As per `make 
menuconfig`, this is either CONFIG_BLK_DEV_IO_TRACE or any (combination of) 
option(s) that enable(s) CONFIG_TRACING. See the `make menuconfig` output in my 
previous email for details.

Which option do you think is appropriate here? Or am I missing something?

For anyone wanting to reproduce, use:
/tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run —kunitconfig=<path_to_above_kunitconfig> --arch=arm64

Many thanks,
Paul
