Subject: [PATCH 0/3] rust: kunit: support #[should_panic] and same test name with different #[cfg(...)]
Date: Tue, 29 Sep 2026 11:07:40 -0300 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <cover.1790599486.git.nico.antinori.7@gmail.com> (raw)
This patch series intends to implement two features for KUnit tests
written in Rust. The work is based on a TODO comment made in the
`bitmap.rs` module [1].
Changelog:
- RFC patch: [3]
1. Supporting `#[should_panic]` [2]:
KUnit tests in Rust follow the user-space syntax, but at the moment
`#[should_panic]` is not supported. The first patch of this series adds
support for the attribute (only in its basic form, `#[should_panic =
"message"]` is not supported yet).
The way it is supported is by adding a new boolean property called
`rust_should_panic` to `kunit_attributes` struct in kunit/test.h and
check for the `try_catch->try_result` code and the named flag to detect
if there was a panic in `lib/kunit/test.c::kunit_run_case_catch_errors`
function.
The difference with the previous version [3] is that now, almost
everything is handled in the C side, meaning that we don't have a
separate `#[panic_handler]` when KUnit tests are active. In other words
there's no need of a Rust side panic handler because the C side catches
Rust's panics too, since the `#[panic_hanlder]` executes a
bindings::BUG().
2. Allow same test name with different #[cfg(...)]:
When testing `#[should_panic]` in `bitmap.rs` (check the last patch of
the series) I found that the test that was supposed to panic had the
same name as another one, but they were run on different configurations.
This caused the following compilation error:
ERROR:root:error[E0428]: the name `kunit_rust_wrapper_owned_bitmap_out_of_bounds` is defined multiple times
--> ../rust/kernel/bitmap.rs:503:1
|
503 | #[macros::kunit_tests(rust_kernel_bitmap)]
| ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ `kunit_rust_wrapper_owned_bitmap_out_of_bounds` redefined here
|
= note: `kunit_rust_wrapper_owned_bitmap_out_of_bounds` must be defined only once in the value namespace of this module
= note: this error originates in the attribute macro `macros::kunit_tests` (in Nightly builds, run with -Z macro-backtrace for more info)
Now, only the tests with an active `#[cfg(...)]` will be executed by the
runner. Tests with an inactive `#[cfg(...)]` will not appear in the
report since they are not added to the TEST_CASES array.
