  6. # Options set in the beginning of the file are considered to be
  7. # default options. These options can be overriden by test specific
  8. # options, with the following exceptions:
  9. #
  10. # LOG_FILE
  11. # CLEAR_LOG
  12. # POWEROFF_ON_SUCCESS
  13. # REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS
  14. #
  15. # Test specific options are set after the label:
  16. #
  17. # TEST_START
  18. #
  19. # The options after a TEST_START label are specific to that test.
  20. # Each TEST_START label will set up a new test. If you want to
  21. # perform a test more than once, you can add the ITERATE label
  22. # to it followed by the number of times you want that test
  23. # to iterate. If the ITERATE is left off, the test will only
  24. # be performed once.
  25. #
  26. # TEST_START ITERATE 10

  28. # You can skip a test by adding SKIP (before or after the ITERATE
  29. # and number)
  30. #

  33. # TEST_START SKIP ITERATE 10

  39. # only enabling the ones you want to use for a current test run.
  40. #
  41. # You can add default options anywhere in the file as well
  42. # with the DEFAULTS tag. This allows you to have default options
  43. # after the test options to keep the test options at the top
  44. # of the file. You can even place the DEFAULTS tag between
  45. # test cases (but not in the middle of a single test case)

  376. #### Per test run options ####
  377. # The following options are only allowed in TEST_START sections.
  378. # They are ignored in the DEFAULTS sections.
  379. #
  380. # All of these are optional and undefined by default, although
  381. # some of these options are required for TEST_TYPE of patchcheck
  382. # and bisect.
  383. #
  384. #
  385. # CHECKOUT = branch
  386. #
  387. # If the BUILD_DIR is a git repository, then you can set this option
  388. # to checkout the given branch before running the TEST. If you
  389. # specify this for the first run, that branch will be used for
  390. # all preceding tests until a new CHECKOUT is set.
  391. #
  392. #
  393. #
  394. # For TEST_TYPE = patchcheck
  395. #
  396. # This expects the BUILD_DIR to be a git repository, and
  397. # will checkout the PATCHCHECK_START commit.
  398. #
  399. # The option BUILD_TYPE will be ignored.
  400. #
  401. # The MIN_CONFIG will be used for all builds of the patchcheck. The build type
  402. # used for patchcheck is oldconfig.
  403. #
  404. # PATCHCHECK_START is required and is the first patch to
  405. # test (the SHA1 of the commit). You may also specify anything
  406. # that git checkout allows (branch name, tage, HEAD~3).
  407. #
  408. # PATCHCHECK_END is the last patch to check (default HEAD)
  409. #
  410. # PATCHCHECK_TYPE is required and is the type of test to run:
  411. # build, boot, test.
  412. #
  413. # Note, the build test will look for warnings, if a warning occurred
  414. # in a file that a commit touches, the build will fail.
  415. #
  416. # If BUILD_NOCLEAN is set, then make mrproper will not be run on
  417. # any of the builds, just like all other TEST_TYPE tests. But
  418. # what makes patchcheck different from the other tests, is if
  419. # BUILD_NOCLEAN is not set, only the first and last patch run
  420. # make mrproper. This helps speed up the test.
  421. #
  422. # Example:
  423. # TEST_START
  424. # TEST_TYPE = patchcheck
  425. # CHECKOUT = mybranch
  426. # PATCHCHECK_TYPE = boot
  427. # PATCHCHECK_START = 747e94ae3d1b4c9bf5380e569f614eb9040b79e7
  428. # PATCHCHECK_END = HEAD~2
  429. #
  430. #
  431. #
  432. # For TEST_TYPE = bisect
  433. #
  434. # You can specify a git bisect if the BUILD_DIR is a git repository.
  435. # The MIN_CONFIG will be used for all builds of the bisect. The build type
  436. # used for bisecting is oldconfig.
  437. #
  438. # The option BUILD_TYPE will be ignored.
  439. #
  440. # BISECT_TYPE is the type of test to perform:
  441. # build - bad fails to build
  442. # boot - bad builds but fails to boot
  443. # test - bad boots but fails a test
  444. #
  445. # BISECT_GOOD is the commit (SHA1) to label as good (accepts all git good commit types)
  446. # BISECT_BAD is the commit to label as bad (accepts all git bad commit types)
  447. #
  448. # The above three options are required for a bisect operation.
  449. #
  450. # BISECT_REPLAY = /path/to/replay/file (optional, default undefined)
  451. #
  452. # If an operation failed in the bisect that was not expected to
  453. # fail. Then the test ends. The state of the BUILD_DIR will be
  454. # left off at where the failure occurred. You can examine the
  455. # reason for the failure, and perhaps even find a git commit
  456. # that would work to continue with. You can run:
  457. #
  458. # git bisect log > /path/to/replay/file
  459. #
  460. # The adding:
  461. #
  462. # BISECT_REPLAY= /path/to/replay/file
  463. #
  464. # And running the test again. The test will perform the initial
  465. # git bisect start, git bisect good, and git bisect bad, and
  466. # then it will run git bisect replay on this file, before
  467. # continuing with the bisect.
  468. #
  469. # BISECT_START = commit (optional, default undefined)
  470. #
  471. # As with BISECT_REPLAY, if the test failed on a commit that
  472. # just happen to have a bad commit in the middle of the bisect,
  473. # and you need to skip it. If BISECT_START is defined, it
  474. # will checkout that commit after doing the initial git bisect start,
  475. # git bisect good, git bisect bad, and running the git bisect replay
  476. # if the BISECT_REPLAY is set.
  477. #
  478. # BISECT_SKIP = 1 (optional, default 0)
  479. #
  480. # If BISECT_TYPE is set to test but the build fails, ktest will
  481. # simply fail the test and end their. You could use BISECT_REPLAY
  482. # and BISECT_START to resume after you found a new starting point,
  483. # or you could set BISECT_SKIP to 1. If BISECT_SKIP is set to 1,
  484. # when something other than the BISECT_TYPE fails, ktest.pl will
  485. # run "git bisect skip" and try again.
  486. #
  487. # BISECT_FILES = <path> (optional, default undefined)
  488. #
  489. # To just run the git bisect on a specific path, set BISECT_FILES.
  490. # For example:
  491. #
  492. # BISECT_FILES = arch/x86 kernel/time
  493. #
  494. # Will run the bisect with "git bisect start -- arch/x86 kernel/time"
  495. #
  496. # BISECT_REVERSE = 1 (optional, default 0)
  497. #
  498. # In those strange instances where it was broken forever
  499. # and you are trying to find where it started to work!
  500. # Set BISECT_GOOD to the commit that was last known to fail
  501. # Set BISECT_BAD to the commit that is known to start working.
  502. # With BISECT_REVERSE = 1, The test will consider failures as
  503. # good, and success as bad.
  504. #
  505. # BISECT_MANUAL = 1 (optional, default 0)
  506. #
  507. # In case there's a problem with automating the bisect for
  508. # whatever reason. (Can't reboot, want to inspect each iteration)
  509. # Doing a BISECT_MANUAL will have the test wait for you to
  510. # tell it if the test passed or failed after each iteration.
  511. # This is basicall the same as running git bisect yourself
  512. # but ktest will rebuild and install the kernel for you.
  513. #
  514. # BISECT_CHECK = 1 (optional, default 0)
  515. #
  516. # Just to be sure the good is good and bad is bad, setting
  517. # BISECT_CHECK to 1 will start the bisect by first checking
  518. # out BISECT_BAD and makes sure it fails, then it will check
  519. # out BISECT_GOOD and makes sure it succeeds before starting
  520. # the bisect (it works for BISECT_REVERSE too).
  521. #
  522. # You can limit the test to just check BISECT_GOOD or
  523. # BISECT_BAD with BISECT_CHECK = good or
  524. # BISECT_CHECK = bad, respectively.
  525. #
  526. # Example:
  527. # TEST_START
  528. # TEST_TYPE = bisect
  529. # BISECT_GOOD = v2.6.36
  530. # BISECT_BAD = b5153163ed580e00c67bdfecb02b2e3843817b3e
  531. # BISECT_TYPE = build
  532. # MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-bisect
  533. #
  534. #
  535. #
  536. # For TEST_TYPE = config_bisect
  537. #
  538. # In those cases that you have two different configs. One of them
  539. # work, the other does not, and you do not know what config causes
  540. # the problem.
  541. # The TEST_TYPE config_bisect will bisect the bad config looking for
  542. # what config causes the failure.
  543. #
  544. # The way it works is this:
  545. #
  546. # First it finds a config to work with. Since a different version, or
  547. # MIN_CONFIG may cause different dependecies, it must run through this
  548. # preparation.
  549. #
  550. # Overwrites any config set in the bad config with a config set in
  551. # either the MIN_CONFIG or ADD_CONFIG. Thus, make sure these configs
  552. # are minimal and do not disable configs you want to test:
  553. # (ie. # CONFIG_FOO is not set).
  554. #
  555. # An oldconfig is run on the bad config and any new config that
  556. # appears will be added to the configs to test.
  557. #
  558. # Finally, it generates a config with the above result and runs it
  559. # again through make oldconfig to produce a config that should be
  560. # satisfied by kconfig.
  561. #
  562. # Then it starts the bisect.
  563. #
  564. # The configs to test are cut in half. If all the configs in this
  565. # half depend on a config in the other half, then the other half
  566. # is tested instead. If no configs are enabled by either half, then
  567. # this means a circular dependency exists and the test fails.
  568. #
  569. # A config is created with the test half, and the bisect test is run.
  570. #
  571. # If the bisect succeeds, then all configs in the generated config
  572. # are removed from the configs to test and added to the configs that
  573. # will be enabled for all builds (they will be enabled, but not be part
  574. # of the configs to examine).
  575. #
  576. # If the bisect fails, then all test configs that were not enabled by
  577. # the config file are removed from the test. These configs will not
  578. # be enabled in future tests. Since current config failed, we consider
  579. # this to be a subset of the config that we started with.
  580. #
  581. # When we are down to one config, it is considered the bad config.
  582. #
  583. # Note, the config chosen may not be the true bad config. Due to
  584. # dependencies and selections of the kbuild system, mulitple
  585. # configs may be needed to cause a failure. If you disable the
  586. # config that was found and restart the test, if the test fails
  587. # again, it is recommended to rerun the config_bisect with a new
  588. # bad config without the found config enabled.
  589. #
  590. # The option BUILD_TYPE will be ignored.
  591. #
  592. # CONFIG_BISECT_TYPE is the type of test to perform:
  593. # build - bad fails to build
  594. # boot - bad builds but fails to boot
  595. # test - bad boots but fails a test
  596. #
  597. # CONFIG_BISECT is the config that failed to boot
  598. #
  599. # If BISECT_MANUAL is set, it will pause between iterations.
  600. # This is useful to use just ktest.pl just for the config bisect.
  601. # If you set it to build, it will run the bisect and you can
  602. # control what happens in between iterations. It will ask you if
  603. # the test succeeded or not and continue the config bisect.
  604. #
  605. # Example:
  606. # TEST_START
  607. # TEST_TYPE = config_bisect
  608. # CONFIG_BISECT_TYPE = build
  609. # CONFIG_BISECT = /home/test/¢onfig-bad
  610. # MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-min
