+Unit testing +============ + +KUnit +----- + +KUnit (Kernel unit testing framework) provides a common framework for unit tests +within the Linux kernel. + +This section covers the specifics for the DRM subsystem. For general information +about KUnit, please refer to Documentation/dev-tools/kunit/start.rst. + +How to run the tests? +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + +In order to facilitate running the test suite, a configuration file is present +in ``drivers/gpu/drm/tests/.kunitconfig``. It can be used by ``kunit.py`` as +follows: + +.. code-block:: bash + + $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=drivers/gpu/drm/tests \ + --kconfig_add CONFIG_VIRTIO_UML=y \ + --kconfig_add CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO=y + +.. note:: + The configuration included in ``.kunitconfig`` should be as generic as + possible. + ``CONFIG_VIRTIO_UML`` and ``CONFIG_UML_PCI_OVER_VIRTIO`` are not + included in it because they are only required for User Mode Linux. + + Legacy Support Code ===================
