| Notes for test-runner usage |
| *************************** |
| |
| |
| Kernel configuration |
| ==================== |
| |
| The test-runner tool requires a kernel that is at least build with these |
| minimal options for a successful boot. |
| |
| CONFIG_VIRTIO=y |
| CONFIG_VIRTIO_PCI=y |
| |
| CONFIG_NET=y |
| CONFIG_INET=y |
| |
| CONFIG_NET_9P=y |
| CONFIG_NET_9P_VIRTIO=y |
| |
| CONFIG_9P_FS=y |
| CONFIG_9P_FS_POSIX_ACL=y |
| |
| CONFIG_SERIAL_8250=y |
| CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=y |
| CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_PCI=y |
| CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UARTS=4 |
| |
| CONFIG_TMPFS=y |
| CONFIG_TMPFS_POSIX_ACL=y |
| CONFIG_TMPFS_XATTR=y |
| |
| CONFIG_DEVTMPFS=y |
| CONFIG_DEBUG_FS=y |
| |
| These options should be installed as .config in the kernel source directory |
| followed by this command. |
| |
| make olddefconfig |
| |
| After that a default kernel with the required options can be built. More |
| option (like the Bluetooth subsystem) can be enabled on top of this. |
| |
| Lock debuging |
| ------------- |
| |
| To catch locking related issues the following set of kernel config |
| options may be useful: |
| |
| CONFIG_LOCKDEP_SUPPORT=y |
| CONFIG_DEBUG_SPINLOCK=y |
| CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC=y |
| CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING=y |
| CONFIG_LOCKDEP=y |
| CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES=y |
