Thanks for completing the triangle (hash, list, hashtable) of
hashtable-related tests!

This looks good to me, save for some nitpicks below. They're mostly
pretty similar to Daniel's comments, so should be pretty
straightforward.

Cheers,

This is a problem we hit with the list test as well: because these
functions have for_each in their name, checkpatch.pl assumes they're
loops (using the macro), not functions.

As with the list test, we _could_ try to fix this in checkpatch, or
rename the tests, but I suspect it's a special enough case (naming a
function after a macro), that it's best to ignore the warnings,
keeping a note like this in the patch email.

Maybe one day, checkpatch.pl will be able to tell that this is a function...

I think we could improve this by checking 'x->key' is one of {a,b}.
Daniel's suggestions below are good, otherwise perhaps something like:
x->visited++;
if (x->key == a.key)
KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(x->data, a.data);
else if (x->key == b.key)
KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ(x->data, b.data);
else
KUNIT_EXPECT_NEQ(x->key, x->key); /* Not an expected key. */

The other, more over-the-top option would be to have an array of
struct hashtable_test_entry, rather than separate a and b variables,
and to loop over them, e.g.
x->visited++;
for (int i = 0; i < ARRAY_SIZE(entries); ++i) {
if (entires[i]->key == x->key) {

break;
}
KUNIT_EXPECT_NEQ_MSG(x->key, x->key, "Unexxpected element in hashtable");
}

But I suspect the first is actually cleaner.

Again, just increment x->visited here, and possibly add
KUNIT_EXPECT_NEQ(x->key, b.key).

Again, let's just increment x->visited, and maybe
KUNIT_EXPECT_GEQ(x->key, 0), ..._LEQ(x->key, 3).

I'm a bit on-the-fence about whether or not this is too
implementation-specific. I think the way the hashtable works here is
supposed to be stable, but given that almost nothing in the actual
kernel seems to rely on hash_min directly, maybe it's better to not
lock it in with a test.

How about reducing this to a KUNIT_EXPECT_GEQ(test, count, 4)?
