[RFC net-next 0/3] selftests: rds selftest

[allison.henderson@oracle.com]

From: Allison Henderson <allison.henderson@oracle.com>

Hi All,

This series is a new selftest that Vegard, Chuck and myself have been working on to provide some test coverage for rds.  It still has a few bugs to work out, so it's not quite ready for submission yet.  But we thought an RFC would be a good idea just to collect some feed back to see what people think.  Some things to be aware of that we are still working through:

  Occasionally we see intermittent hangs during the send and recv.
  So we still need to track down and address the cause

  We may still add a time out to handle unexpected hangs

  We've been having some trouble getting gcov to generate a report if
  the version of gcov doesn't match the version of gcc installed.  So
  we may further adapt the test to omit the coverage report if the
  required dependencies are not met

  Some distros are still not collecting meaningfull gcda data and
  generate an empty report, so we are still trying to figure out the
  cause of that

  May still add more exit codes for PASS/FAIL/BROKEN/CONFIG conditions

Questions and comments appreciated.  Thanks everyone!

Allison
