Subject: [PATCH v5 03/58] objtool/klp: Group the klp tests by architecture
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 11:42:56 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916184351.2720310-4-song@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260916184351.2720310-1-song@kernel.org>
Which architecture a test is for is expressed by where it lives: tests are
in generic/ or in a directory named for their architecture, each carrying
its own fixtures, and the runner executes generic/ plus the one that
matches. A test which cannot apply here is then not run at all, rather
than running in order to announce that it did not.
Layout does this better than a declaration would. There is no x86_only(),
and no lookup letting a fixtures/<arch>/ file shadow a generic one of the
same name -- an arch-specific test simply carries its own fixtures.
Compilers cannot work the same way: CI varies CC over the same tree, so a
compiler requirement stays a declaration in the test.
What a run leaves out is reported once:
# not run: 5 tests in x86/ (this run is arm64)
Silence would have been cheaper and wrong. A run covering less than the
tree holds must not look like a run that covered all of it.
