Subject: [PATCH v4 4/4] selftest: Taint kernel when test module loaded
Date: Fri, 1 Jul 2022 16:47:44 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20220701084744.3002019-4-davidgow@google.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20220701084744.3002019-1-davidgow@google.com>
Make any kselftest test module (using the kselftest_module framework)
taint the kernel with TAINT_TEST on module load.
Note that several selftests use kernel modules which are not based on
the kselftest_module framework, and so will not automatically taint the
kernel.
This can be done in two ways:
- Moving the module to the tools/testing directory. All modules under
this directory will taint the kernel.
- Adding the 'test' module property with:
MODULE_INFO(test, "Y")
Similarly, selftests which do not load modules into the kernel generally
should not taint the kernel (or possibly should only do so on failure),
as it's assumed that testing from user-space should be safe. Regardless,
they can write to /proc/sys/kernel/tainted if required.

This still only covers a subset of selftest modules, but combined with
the modpost check for the tools/testing path, it should catch many
future tests. Others can be moved, adapted to use this framework, or
have MODULE_INFO(test, "Y") added. (Alas, I don't have the time to hunt
down all of the tests which don't do this at the moment.
No changes since v3:
