Subject: [PATCH 1/2] test: add minimal module for verification testing
Date: Tue, 3 Dec 2013 13:27:33 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1386106054-27636-2-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1386106054-27636-1-git-send-email-keescook@chromium.org>
When doing module loading verification tests (for example, with module
singing, or LSM hooks), it is very handy to have a module that can be
built on all systems under test, isn't auto-loaded at boot, and has
no device or similar dependencies. This creates the "test_module.ko"
module for that purpose, which only reports its load and unload to printk.
