Subject: [PATCH RFC] kselftest: devices: Add test to detect missing devices
Introduce a new test to identify regressions causing devices to go
missing on the system.
For each bus and class on the system the test checks the number of
devices present against a reference file, which needs to have been
generated by the program at a previous point on a known-good kernel, and
if there are missing devices they are reported.

Hi,
Key points about this test:
* Goal: Identify regressions causing devices to go missing on the system
* Focus:
* Ease of maintenance: the reference file is generated programatically
* Minimum of false-positives: the script makes as few assumptions as possible
about the stability of device identifiers to ensure renames/refactors don't
trigger false-positives
* How it works: For each bus and class on the system the test checks the number
of devices present against a reference file, which needs to have been
generated by the program at a previous point on a known-good kernel, and if
there are missing devices they are reported.
* Comparison to other tests: It might be possible(*) to replace the discoverable
devices test [1] with this. The benefits of this test is that it's easier
to setup and maintain and has wider coverage of devices.
Additional detail:
* Having more devices on the running system than the reference does not cause a
failure, but a warning is printed in that case to suggest that the reference
be updated.
* Missing devices are detected per bus/class based on the number of devices.
When the test fails, the known metadata for each of the expected and detected
devices is printed and some simple similitarity comparison is done to suggest
the devices that are the most likely to be missing.
* The proposed place to store the generated reference files is the
'platform-test-parameters' repository in KernelCI [2].
Example output: This is an example of a failing test case when one of the two
devices in the nvmem bus went missing:
# Missing devices for subsystem 'nvmem': 1 (Expected 2, found 1)
# =================
# Devices expected:
#
# uevent:
# OF_NAME=efuse
# OF_FULLNAME=/soc/efuse@...10000
# OF_COMPATIBLE_0=mediatek,mt8195-efuse
# OF_COMPATIBLE_1=mediatek,efuse
# OF_COMPATIBLE_N=2
#
# uevent:
# OF_NAME=flash
# OF_FULLNAME=/soc/spi@...2c000/flash@0
# OF_COMPATIBLE_0=jedec,spi-nor
# OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
#
# -----------------
# Devices found:
#
# uevent:
# OF_NAME=efuse
# OF_FULLNAME=/soc/efuse@...10000
# OF_COMPATIBLE_0=mediatek,mt8195-efuse
# OF_COMPATIBLE_1=mediatek,efuse
# OF_COMPATIBLE_N=2
#
# -----------------
# Devices missing (best guess):
#
# uevent:
# OF_NAME=flash
# OF_FULLNAME=/soc/spi@...2c000/flash@0
# OF_COMPATIBLE_0=jedec,spi-nor
# OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
#
# =================
not ok 19 bus.nvmem
Example of how the data for these devices is encoded in the reference file:
bus:
...
nvmem:
count: 2
devices:
- info:
uevent: 'OF_NAME=efuse
OF_FULLNAME=/soc/efuse@...10000
OF_COMPATIBLE_0=mediatek,mt8195-efuse
OF_COMPATIBLE_1=mediatek,efuse
OF_COMPATIBLE_N=2
'
- info:
uevent: 'OF_NAME=flash
OF_FULLNAME=/soc/spi@...2c000/flash@0
OF_COMPATIBLE_0=jedec,spi-nor
OF_COMPATIBLE_N=1
'
(Full reference file: http://0x0.st/Xp60.yaml;)
Caveat: Relying only on the count of devices in a subsystem makes the test
susceptible to false-negatives eg. if a device goes missing and another in the
same subsystem is added the count will be the same so this regression won't be
reported. In order to avoid this we may include properties that must match
individual devices, but we must be very careful (and it's why I haven't done it)
since matching against properties that aren't guaranteed to be stable will
introduce false-positives (ie. detecting false regressions) due to eventual
renames.
Some things to improve in the near future / gather feedback on:
* (*): Currently this test only checks for the existence of devices. We could
extend it to also encode into the reference which devices are bound to drivers
to be able to completely replace the discoverable devices probe kselftest [1].
* Expanding identifying properties: Currently the properties that are stored
(when present) in the reference for each device to be used for identification
in the result output are uevent, device/uevent, firmware_node/uevent and name.
Suggestions of others properties to add are welcome.
* Adding more filtering to reduce noise:
* Ignoring buses/classes: Currently the devlink class is ignored by the test
since it seems like a kernel internal detail that userspace doesn't actually
care about. We should add others that are similar.
* Ignoring non-devices: There can be entries in /sys/class/ that aren't
devices. For now we're filtering down to only symlinks, but there might be a
better way.
* As mentioned in the caveat section above we may want to add actual matching
of devices based on properties to avoid false-negatives if we identify
suitable properties.
* It would be nice to have an option in the program to compare a newer reference
to an older one to make it easier for the user to see the differences and
decide if the new reference is ok.
* Since the reference file is not supposed to be manually edited, JSON might be
a better choice than YAML since it is included in the python standard library.
Let me know your thoughts.
Thanks,
Nícolas
