Message-Id: <20240809162557.32300-1-laura.nao@collabora.com> Date: Fri, 9 Aug 2024 18:25:57 +0200 From: Laura Nao <laura.nao@...labora.com> To: kernelci@...ts.linux.dev Cc: linux-kselftest@...r.kernel.org, linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org Subject: Testing Quality Call notes - 2024-08-08 Hello, KernelCI is hosting a bi-weekly call on Thursday to discuss improvements to existing upstream tests, the development of new tests to increase kernel testing coverage, and the enablement of these tests in KernelCI. Below is a list of the tests the community has been working on and their latest status updates, as discussed in the last meeting held on 2024-08-08: *KTAP performance counters* - Upcoming presentation @LPC2024 by Tim Bird on adding benchmark results to KTAP: https://lpc.events/event/18/contributions/1791/ - Proposing new system to handle benchmark data, composed of 3 parts: adding syntax to KTAP to support benchmark values, using a set of external criteria for interpreting benchmark results, an automated tool to determine and set the reference values used in these criteria. - One related topic for discussion is where to store the reference files and the test configuration, including all details that might impact the results. *Missing devices kselftest* - Proposing new kselftest to report devices that go missing in the system: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240724-kselftest-dev-exist-v1-1-9bc21aa761b5@collabora.com/#r - Received feedback on the usability of the test and main unknowns about management of reference files in tests *Boot time test* - RFC: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240725110622.96301-1-laura.nao@collabora.com/T/#ma568382acdc81af65c30fe3823a7be3e49f98108 - Got feedback on the potential use of scripts from pm-graph. The bootgraph.py script could be adapted for the test with some modifications, such as adding support for machine-readable output and different ftrace configurations. *Suspend/resume in cpufreq kselftest* - Sent v2 for patch adding RTC wakeup alarm in the cpufreq kselftest: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240715192634.19272-1-shreeya.patel@collabora.com/ - Looking into using the sleepgraph.py script from pm-graph to calculate suspend/hibernation and resume time: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/tools/power/pm-graph/sleepgraph.py?h=v6.11-rc1 - Would require additional configs to be enabled in an automated environment *TAP conformance in kselftests and other fixes* - Some dead selftests were removed: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240725110817.659099-1-usama.anjum@collabora.com and https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240725121212.808206-1-usama.anjum@collabora.com - Bitmap test module conversion to KUnit was not accepted: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/49108735-c776-4b6f-8264-62a827dd7b26@collabora.com/T/ - Fixing error when kvm suite is built for unsupported architecure: https://lore.kernel.org/kvm/c2aaa06e-e86d-4af9-bce4-6067e53cdf39@collabora.com/T/ Please reply to this thread if you'd like to join the call or discuss any of the topics further. We look forward to collaborating with the community to improve upstream tests and expand coverage to more areas of interest within the kernel. Best regards, Laura Nao
