The drivers are checked with modprobe. If modprobe is not available
on the system, the checks are silently skipped.

v2: * moved tst_check_driver() from tst_test.h to tst_kernel.h
    * added the new option description to the doc and comment to tst_kernel.h
    * iterating over the driver list moved out from tst_check_drivers(), the
      function renamed accordingly.

It'd be handy to be able to load module with parameters. E.g.:
tcrypt sec=1 mode=200

We have 2 options: to name strig by spaces to b:
./tst_check_drivers "tcrypt sec=1 mode=200" other_module

Or handle in tst_check_drivers.c just one module and call it several times.

None of them is elegant.

Otherwise LGTM.


Kind regards,
Petr

Do you want to start tcrypt module in the test setup? It's probably
better to add the -n/--dry-run option, so at first we verify that
the kernel actually has it, then either end with TCONF or continue.
That's the purpose of the 'needs_drivers'.

Moreover, if the failure occurs during the loading instead, the test
must return TBROK, not TCONF, right?

like modprobe?

I'd like this whole patchset being merged before git freeze.
Do you plan it?

Maybe we should explicitly say here that this works for both drivers
that are compiled-in and modules, since otherwise this may confuse the
users, especially since we talk about modprobe in the next paragraph.

I would write something as:

"Some tests may need specific kernel drivers, either compiled in, or
loaded as a module. If .need_drivers points to a NULL-terminated array
of kernel module names these are all checked and the test exits with
TCONF on first missing driver."

I would be happier if we put a curly braces around large blocks inside
of other blocks as LKML prefers to do, since this piece of code is
starting to look a bit like python...


Other than that this looks very good.

OK, thanks! I guess this also correlates with using the --dry-run option
of modprobe that I'm going to add in the 3rd version [1], if there are no
objections.
