[PATCH] kunit: Add "hooks" to call into KUnit when it's built as a module

From: David Gow
Date: Sat Jan 28 2023 - 02:10:23 EST

KUnit has several macros and functions intended for use from non-test
code. These hooks, currently the kunit_get_current_test() and
kunit_fail_current_test() macros, didn't work when CONFIG_KUNIT=m.

In order to support this case, the required functions and static data
need to be available unconditionally, even when KUnit itself is not
built-in. The new 'hooks.c' file is therefore always included, and has
both the static key required for kunit_get_current_test(), and a table
of function pointers in struct kunit_hooks_table. This is filled in with
the real implementations by kunit_install_hooks(), which is kept in
hooks-impl.h and called when the kunit module is loaded.

This can be extended for future features which require similar
"hook" behaviour, such as static stubs, by simply adding new entries to
the struct, and the appropriate code to set them.

This is basically a prerequisite for the stub features working when
KUnit is built as a module, and should nicely make a few other tests
work, too.

This version uses a struct, rather than a bunch of separate function
pointers, to define the list of hooks in one place. It also doesn't use
the macro magic from RFC v2 (which we could reintroduce later if we end
up with enough hooks that it'd make sense). It does get rid of all of
the nasty checkpatch.pl warnings, though, save for:

WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately follow its function/variable
#230: FILE: lib/kunit/hooks.c:16:
+EXPORT_SYMBOL(kunit_running);

This is a false-positive, as the EXPORT_SYMBOL() immediately follows the
DEFINE_STATIC_KEY_FALSE() macro, which checkpatch doesn't recognise as a
definition.

Cheers,
-- David

Changes since RFC v2:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-kselftest/20230124080350.2275652-1-davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx/
- Get rid of the macro magic, and keep the function pointers in a
struct.
- Also, reset them to NULL using memset, so we don't need to loop
through all of them manually.
- Thanks Daniel!
- Properly forward-declare all of the implementations, now in
"hooks-impl.h", so they can easily be split across different files.
(Needed for the stubs implementation.)
- Extract the stub installation into a separate function,
kunit_install_hooks().
- Thanks Daniel!

Changes since RFC v1:
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20230117142737.246446-1-davidgow@xxxxxxxxxx/
- Major refit to auto-generate the hook code using macros.
- (Note that previous Reviewed-by tags have not been added, as this is a
big enough change it probably needs a re-reviews. Thanks Rae for
reviewing RFC v1 previously, though!)
