Subject: [PATCH v4 09/10] kcov: selftests: add kcov_test
Date: Thu, 31 Jul 2025 13:51:38 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20250731115139.3035888-10-glider@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20250731115139.3035888-1-glider@google.com>
Implement test fixtures for testing different combinations of coverage
collection modes:
- unique and non-unique coverage;
- collecting PCs and comparison arguments;
- mapping the buffer as RO and RW.
To build:
$ make -C tools/testing/selftests/kcov kcov_test
Signed-off-by: Alexander Potapenko <glider@google.com>
---
v4:
- Per Dmitry Vyukov's request, add CONFIG_KCOV_UNIQUE=y to the
list of required configs
v3:
- Address comments by Dmitry Vyukov:
- add tools/testing/selftests/kcov/config
- add ifdefs to KCOV_UNIQUE_ENABLE and KCOV_RESET_TRACE
- Properly handle/reset the coverage buffer when collecting unique
coverage
