fault-injection: fix failcmd.sh warning

2012-08-01T01:42:38Z

"fault-injection: add tool to run command with failslab or fail_page_alloc" added tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh to make it easier to inject slab/page allocation failures by fault injection. failcmd.sh prints the following warning when running with arguments for command. # ./failcmd.sh echo aaa failcmd.sh: line 209: [: echo: binary operator expected aaa This warning is caused by an improper check whether at least one parameter is left after parsing command options. Fix it by testing the length of $1 instead of $@ Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

Merge branch 'akpm' (Andrew's patch-bomb)

2012-07-31T00:25:34Z

Merge Andrew's first set of patches: "Non-MM patches: - lots of misc bits - tree-wide have_clk() cleanups - quite a lot of printk tweaks. I draw your attention to "printk: convert the format for KERN_ to a 2 byte pattern" which looks a bit scary. But afaict it's solid. - backlight updates - lib/ feature work (notably the addition and use of memweight()) - checkpatch updates - rtc updates - nilfs updates - fatfs updates (partial, still waiting for acks) - kdump, proc, fork, IPC, sysctl, taskstats, pps, etc - new fault-injection feature work" * Merge emailed patches from Andrew Morton : (128 commits) drivers/misc/lkdtm.c: fix missing allocation failure check lib/scatterlist: do not re-write gfp_flags in __sg_alloc_table() fault-injection: add tool to run command with failslab or fail_page_alloc fault-injection: add selftests for cpu and memory hotplug powerpc: pSeries reconfig notifier error injection module memory: memory notifier error injection module PM: PM notifier error injection module cpu: rewrite cpu-notifier-error-inject module fault-injection: notifier error injection c/r: fcntl: add F_GETOWNER_UIDS option resource: make sure requested range is included in the root range include/linux/aio.h: cpp->C conversions fs: cachefiles: add support for large files in filesystem caching pps: return PTR_ERR on error in device_create taskstats: check nla_reserve() return sysctl: suppress kmemleak messages ipc: use Kconfig options for __ARCH_WANT_[COMPAT_]IPC_PARSE_VERSION ipc: compat: use signed size_t types for msgsnd and msgrcv ipc: allow compat IPC version field parsing if !ARCH_WANT_OLD_COMPAT_IPC ipc: add COMPAT_SHMLBA support ...

fault-injection: add tool to run command with failslab or fail_page_alloc

2012-07-31T00:25:22Z

This adds tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh to run a command while injecting slab/page allocation failures via fault injection. Example: Run a command "make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests" with injecting slab allocation failure. # ./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh \ -- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests Same as above except to specify 100 times failures at most instead of one time at most by default. # ./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh --times=100 \ -- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests Same as above except to inject page allocation failure instead of slab allocation failure. # env FAILCMD_TYPE=fail_page_alloc \ ./tools/testing/fault-injection/failcmd.sh --times=100 \ -- make -C tools/testing/selftests/ run_tests Signed-off-by: Akinobu Mita Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds

fault-injection: add selftests for cpu and memory hotplug

2012-07-31T00:25:22Z

This adds two selftests * tools/testing/selftests/cpu-hotplug/on-off-test.sh is testing script for CPU hotplug 1. Online all hot-pluggable CPUs 2. Offline all hot-pluggable CPUs 3. Online all hot-pluggable CPUs again 4. Exit if cpu-notifier-error-inject.ko is not available 5. Offline all hot-pluggable CPUs in preparation for testing 6. Test CPU hot-add error handling by injecting notifier errors 7. Online all hot-pluggable CPUs in preparation for testing 8. Test CPU hot-remove error handling by injecting notifier errors * tools/testing/selftests/memory-hotplug/on-off-test.sh is doing the similar thing for memory hotplug. 1. Online all hot-pluggable memory 2. Offline 10% of hot-pluggable memory 3. Online all hot-pluggable memory again 4. Exit if memory-notifier-error-inject.ko is not available 5. Offline 10% of hot-pluggable memory in preparation for testing 6. Test memory hot-add error handling by injecting notifier errors 7. Online all hot-pluggable memory in preparation for testing 8.

Pull ktest changes from Steven Rostedt: "Set of updates for v3.6 (some fixes too) Seems that you opened the merge window the day I left for the beach. I just got back (yes us Americans only take a week vacation), and just got the last of my ktest quilt queue into git." * tag 'ktest-v3.6' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rostedt/linux-ktest: ktest: Allow perl regex expressions in conditional statements ktest: Ignore errors it tests if IGNORE_ERRORS is set ktest: Reset saved min (force) configs for each test ktest: Add check for bug or panic during reboot ktest: Add MAX_MONITOR_WAIT option ktest: Fix config bisect with how make oldnoconfig works ktest: Add CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK option ktest: Add PRE_INSTALL option ktest: Add PRE/POST_KTEST and TEST options ktest: Remove commented exit

ktest: Allow perl regex expressions in conditional statements

2012-07-30T18:37:01Z

Add '=~' and '!~' to the list of allowed conditionals for DEFAULT and TEST_START section if statements. ie. TEST_START IF TEST =~ .*test$ Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

ktest: Ignore errors it tests if IGNORE_ERRORS is set

2012-07-30T18:33:55Z

The option IGNORE_ERRORS is used to allow a test to succeed even if a warning appears from the kernel. Sometimes kernels will produce warnings that are not associated with a test, and the user wants to test something else. The IGNORE_ERRORS works for boot up, but was not preventing test runs to succeed if the kernel produced a warning. Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt

Merge branch 'slab/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux

2012-07-30T18:32:24Z

Pull SLAB changes from Pekka Enberg: "Most of the changes included are from Christoph Lameter's "common slab" patch series that unifies common parts of SLUB, SLAB, and SLOB allocators. The unification is needed for Glauber Costa's "kmem memcg" work that will hopefully appear for v3.7. The rest of the changes are fixes and speedups by various people." * 'slab/next' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/penberg/linux: (32 commits) mm: Fix build warning in kmem_cache_create() slob: Fix early boot kernel crash mm, slub: ensure irqs are enabled for kmemcheck mm, sl[aou]b: Move kmem_cache_create mutex handling to common code mm, sl[aou]b: Use a common mutex definition mm, sl[aou]b: Common definition for boot state of the slab allocators mm, sl[aou]b: Extract common code for kmem_cache_create() slub: remove invalid reference to list iterator variable mm: Fix signal SIGFPE in slabinfo.c. slab: move FULL state transition to an initcall slab: Fix a typo in commit 8c138b "slab: Get rid of obj_size macro" mm, slab: Build fix for recent kmem_cache changes slab: rename gfpflags to allocflags slub: refactoring unfreeze_partials() slub: use __cmpxchg_double_slab() at interrupt disabled place slab/mempolicy: always use local policy from interrupt context slab: Get rid of obj_size macro mm, sl[aou]b: Extract common fields from struct kmem_cache slab: Remove some accessors slab: Use page struct fields instead of casting ...
