The test already required btrfs filesystem to be mounted by the test
library which means that the test would be skipped properly if btrfs is
not supported. There is no need to have a duplicit check for a btrfs
module.

nit: "the driver" vs. "the module". We have kernel modules which are builtin or
compiled as modules. The older two functions say "the driver", but they are also
modules (although builtin), maybe worth to change it.
Kind regards,
Petr

Thinking about it twice, could we check for the module by reading
/sys/module/? Our current approach shows what module *should* be available, but
that might not be true for some reason (i.e. loadable module not installed).
Unfortunately while this works for loadable modules (and IMHO worth to add it),
builtin modules are here only if they have a version or at least one parameter
[1]. And this will not work at least for hwpoison_inject.
Kind regards,
Petr

The modules.dep file contains names of all modules installed in
particular kernel modules directory. We cannot do anything better than
parsing that file because it's (re)genrated on the system each time
packages with modules have been installed/removed. If that wasn't the
case modprobe that depends on that file wouldn't work either.

We effectively ask users to install modules.dep and modules.builtin. While this
is ok for distros and nobody has complained, I can imagine special embedded
systems can have problem. If everything was reliably detectable via /sys or
/proc I'd move to it. But even it's not working for all modules, checking first
/sys/module/ and fallback using modules.{builtin,dep} wouldn't take much effort.
But sure, we can postpone it until somebody has problems with the current
approach.
Kind regards,
Petr

My code does not add any new dependencies. The check for module.dep has
been in LTP since:
8f7013ba6917 ('tst_check_driver(): Fix kernel module detection on BusyBox')
which was introduced five years ago.
The only thing that changes is that the check is being moved from
needs_drivers to needs_kconfigs.

Sure, it's not new dependency and I like this cleanup. My point is not directly
related to the these changes, but to the fact that I probably did not know about
/sys/module/ back then. But I knew the limitations (no detection on Android,
possible problems on embedded).
Kind regards,
Petr

The .needs_kconfig and .needs_drivers fields in the tst_test structure
had overlaping functionality. Both were checking if a functionality was
build in into the kernel or compiled as a driver. Similarily to the
runtime checks added to tst_kconfig modules can be build but packaged
into separate packages and may not be installed on the system even if
corresponding config option was set to 'm'.
This commit adds a mapping table from CONFIG options to module names for
the modules we care about. Most of the time the mapping is trivial, but
some CONFIG options does not really match the module name, hence we need
a mapping. We may also be able to generate the table from kernel config
infrastructure later on, but at this point the number of options is
small enough to be manageable by hand editing.
Once we have that mapping we can run aditional check for a module
presence if the confing option was set to 'm' and if mapping exists in
order to disable the config option when the module was not found.

Maybe rename the struct to:
static struct config_module_map {
const char *config;
const char *module_name;
} config_module_maps[] = {
...
}
And rename 'struct runtime_check' to:
static struct config_runtime_map {
const char *config;
bool (*runtime_check)(void);
} config_runtime_maps[] = {
...
};
This is a tiny nit; I don't have strong opinions.

Then rename the two functions to:
kconfig_runtime_check()
kconfig_module_check()
Because in tst_kconfig.c most function contains "kconfig_" string.

I do not have strong opition, if you agree that these names are better
we can rename them.

As we add runtime_check and module_check, I think we also need to update
the descrition comments of @needs_kconfigs in tst_test.h.

To address this, the kconfig library implements supplementary
