kunit: split resource API from test.h into new resource.h Background: Currently, a reader looking at kunit/test.h will find the file is quite long, and the first meaty comment is a doc comment about struct kunit_resource. Most users will not ever use the KUnit resource API directly. They'll use kunit_kmalloc() and friends, or decide it's simpler to do cleanups via labels (it often can be) instead of figuring out how to use the API. It's also logically separate from everything else in test.h. Removing it from the file doesn't cause any compilation errors (since struct kunit has `struct list_head resources` to store them). This commit: Let's move it into a kunit/resource.h file and give it a separate page in the docs, kunit/api/resource.rst. We include resource.h at the bottom of test.h since * don't want to force existing users to add a new include if they use the API * it accesses `lock` inside `struct kunit` in a inline func * so we can't just forward declare, and the alternatives require uninlining the func, adding hepers to lock/unlock, or other more invasive changes. Now the first big comment in test.h is about kunit_case, which is a lot more relevant to what a new user wants to know. A side effect of this is git blame won't properly track history by default, users need to run $ git blame -L ,1 -C17 include/kunit/resource.h Signed-off-by: Daniel Latypov <dlatypov@google.com> Reviewed-by: David Gow <davidgow@google.com> Reviewed-by: Brendan Higgins <brendanhiggins@google.com> Signed-off-by: Shuah Khan <skhan@linuxfoundation.org>

clk: Add test managed clk provider/consumer APIs Unit tests are more ergonomic and simpler to understand if they don't have to hoist a bunch of code into the test harness init and exit functions. Add some test managed wrappers for the clk APIs so that clk unit tests can write more code in the actual test and less code in the harness. Only add APIs that are used for now. More wrappers can be added in the future as necessary.

of: Add test managed wrappers for of_overlay_apply()/of_node_put() Add test managed wrappers for of_overlay_apply() that automatically removes the overlay when the test is finished. This API is intended for use by KUnit tests that test code which relies on 'struct device_node's and of_*() APIs. KUnit tests will call of_overlay_apply_kunit() to load an overlay that's been built into the kernel image. When the test is complete, the overlay will be removed. This has a few benefits: 1) It keeps the tests hermetic because the overlay is removed when the test is complete. Tests won't even be aware that an overlay was loaded in another test. 2) The overlay code can live right next to the unit test that loads it. The overlay and the unit test can be compiled into one kernel module if desired. 3) We can test different device tree configurations by loading different overlays. The overlays can be written for a specific test, and there can be many of them loaded per-test without needing to jam all possible combinations into one DTB. 4) It also allows KUnit to test device tree dependent code on any architecture, not just UML. This allows KUnit tests to test architecture specific device tree code. There are some potential pitfalls though. Test authors need to be careful to not overwrite properties in the live tree. The easiest way to do this is to add and remove nodes with a 'kunit-' prefix, almost guaranteeing that the same node won't be present in the tree loaded at boot.
