11.2. User mode tests
Automatically run all userland tests that can be run in user mode simulation, and check that they exit with status 0:
./build --all-archs test-executables-userland ./test-executables --all-archs --all-emulators
Or just for QEMU:
./build --all-archs test-executables-userland-qemu ./test-executables --all-archs --emulator qemu
Source: test-executables
This script skips a manually configured list of tests, notably:
-
tests that depend on a full running kernel and cannot be run in user mode simulation, e.g. those that rely on kernel modules
-
tests that require user interaction
-
tests that take perceptible amounts of time
-
known bugs we didn’t have time to fix ;-)
Tests under userland/libs/ are only run if --package or --package-all are given as described at userland/libs directory.
The gem5 tests require building statically with build id static, see also: Section 11.7, “gem5 syscall emulation mode”. TODO automate this better.
See: Section 38.16, “Test this repo” for more useful testing tips.
