For a list of all the flags supported by kunit_tool, you can run:
.. code-block:: bash
./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --help
+
+Configuring, Building, and Running Tests
+========================================
+
+It's also possible to run just parts of the KUnit build process independently,
+which is useful if you want to make manual changes to part of the process.
+
+A .config can be generated from a .kunitconfig by using the ``config`` argument
+when running kunit_tool:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py config
+
+Similarly, if you just want to build a KUnit kernel from the current .config,
+you can use the ``build`` argument:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py build
+
+And, if you already have a built UML kernel with built-in KUnit tests, you can
+run the kernel and display the test results with the ``exec`` argument:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py exec
+
+The ``run`` command which is discussed above is equivalent to running all three
+of these in sequence.
+
+All of these commands accept a number of optional command-line arguments. The
+``--help`` flag will give a complete list of these, or keep reading this page
+for a guide to some of the more useful ones.
+
+Parsing Test Results
+====================
+
+KUnit tests output their results in TAP (Test Anything Protocol) format.
+kunit_tool will, when running tests, parse this output and print a summary
+which is much more pleasant to read. If you wish to look at the raw test
+results in TAP format, you can pass the ``--raw_output`` argument.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --raw_output
+
+.. note::
+ The raw output from test runs may contain other, non-KUnit kernel log
+ lines.
+
+If you have KUnit results in their raw TAP format, you can parse them and print
+the human-readable summary with the ``parse`` command for kunit_tool. This
+accepts a filename for an argument, or will read from standard input.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Reading from a file
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py parse /var/log/dmesg
+ # Reading from stdin
+ dmesg | ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py parse
+
+This is very useful if you wish to run tests in a configuration not supported
+by kunit_tool (such as on real hardware, or an unsupported architecture).
+
+Filtering Tests
+===============
+
+It's possible to run only a subset of the tests built into a kernel by passing
+a filter to the ``exec`` or ``run`` commands. For example, if you only wanted
+to run KUnit resource tests, you could use:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run 'kunit-resource*'
+
+This uses the standard glob format for wildcards.
+
+Running Tests on QEMU
+=====================
+
+kunit_tool supports running tests on QEMU as well as via UML (as mentioned
+elsewhere). The default way of running tests on QEMU requires two flags:
+
+``--arch``
+ Selects a collection of configs (Kconfig as well as QEMU configs
+ options, etc) that allow KUnit tests to be run on the specified
+ architecture in a minimal way; this is usually not much slower than
+ using UML. The architecture argument is the same as the name of the
+ option passed to the ``ARCH`` variable used by Kbuild. Not all
+ architectures are currently supported by this flag, but can be handled
+ by the ``--qemu_config`` discussed later. If ``um`` is passed (or this
+ this flag is ignored) the tests will run via UML. Non-UML architectures,
+ e.g. i386, x86_64, arm, um, etc. Non-UML run on QEMU.
+
+``--cross_compile``
+ Specifies the use of a toolchain by Kbuild. The argument passed here is
+ the same passed to the ``CROSS_COMPILE`` variable used by Kbuild. As a
+ reminder this will be the prefix for the toolchain binaries such as gcc
+ for example ``sparc64-linux-gnu-`` if you have the sparc toolchain
+ installed on your system, or
+ ``$HOME/toolchains/microblaze/gcc-9.2.0-nolibc/microblaze-linux/bin/microblaze-linux-``
+ if you have downloaded the microblaze toolchain from the 0-day website
+ to a directory in your home directory called ``toolchains``.
+
+In many cases it is likely that you may want to run an architecture which is
+not supported by the ``--arch`` flag, or you may want to just run KUnit tests
+on QEMU using a non-default configuration. For this use case, you can write
+your own QemuConfig. These QemuConfigs are written in Python. They must have an
+import line ``from ..qemu_config import QemuArchParams`` at the top of the file
+and the file must contain a variable called ``QEMU_ARCH`` that has an instance
+of ``QemuArchParams`` assigned to it. An example can be seen in
+``tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/x86_64.py``.
+
+Once you have a QemuConfig you can pass it into kunit_tool using the
+``--qemu_config`` flag; when used this flag replaces the ``--arch`` flag. If we
+were to do this with the ``x86_64.py`` example from above, the invocation would
+look something like this:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run \
+ --timeout=60 \
+ --jobs=12 \
+ --qemu_config=./tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/x86_64.py
+
+Other Useful Options
+====================
+
+kunit_tool has a number of other command-line arguments which can be useful
+when adapting it to fit your environment or needs.
+
+Some of the more useful ones are:
+
+``--help``
+ Lists all of the available options. Note that different commands
+ (``config``, ``build``, ``run``, etc) will have different supported
+ options. Place ``--help`` before the command to list common options,
+ and after the command for options specific to that command.
+
+``--build_dir``
+ Specifies the build directory that kunit_tool will use. This is where
+ the .kunitconfig file is located, as well as where the .config and
+ compiled kernel will be placed. Defaults to ``.kunit``.
+
+``--make_options``
+ Specifies additional options to pass to ``make`` when compiling a
+ kernel (with the ``build`` or ``run`` commands). For example, to enable
+ compiler warnings, you can pass ``--make_options W=1``.
+
+``--alltests``
+ Builds a UML kernel with all config options enabled using ``make
+ allyesconfig``. This allows you to run as many tests as is possible,
+ but is very slow and prone to breakage as new options are added or
+ modified. In most cases, enabling all tests which have satisfied
+ dependencies by adding ``CONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=1`` to your
+ .kunitconfig is preferable.
+
+There are several other options (and new ones are often added), so do check
+``--help`` if you're looking for something not mentioned here.

+============================
+Tips For Running KUnit Tests
+============================
+
+Using ``kunit.py run`` ("kunit tool")
+=====================================
+
+Running from any directory
+--------------------------
+
+It can be handy to create a bash function like:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ function run_kunit() {
+ ( cd "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)" && ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run $@ )
+ }
+
+.. note::
+ Early versions of ``kunit.py`` (before 5.6) didn't work unless run from
+ the kernel root, hence the use of a subshell and ``cd``.
+
+Running a subset of tests
+-------------------------
+
+``kunit.py run`` accepts an optional glob argument to filter tests. Currently
+this only matches against suite names, but this may change in the future.
+
+Say that we wanted to run the sysctl tests, we could do so via:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ echo -e 'CONFIG_KUNIT=y\nCONFIG_KUNIT_ALL_TESTS=y' > .kunit/.kunitconfig
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run 'sysctl*'
+
+We're paying the cost of building more tests than we need this way, but it's
+easier than fiddling with ``.kunitconfig`` files or commenting out
+``kunit_suite``'s.
+
+However, if we wanted to define a set of tests in a less ad hoc way, the next
+tip is useful.
+
+Defining a set of tests
+-----------------------
+
+``kunit.py run`` (along with ``build``, and ``config``) supports a
+``--kunitconfig`` flag. So if you have a set of tests that you want to run on a
+regular basis (especially if they have other dependencies), you can create a
+specific ``.kunitconfig`` for them.
+
+E.g. kunit has one for its tests:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit/.kunitconfig
+
+Alternatively, if you're following the convention of naming your
+file ``.kunitconfig``, you can just pass in the dir, e.g.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --kunitconfig=lib/kunit
+
+.. note::
+ This is a relatively new feature (5.12+) so we don't have any
+ conventions yet about on what files should be checked in versus just
+ kept around locally. It's up to you and your maintainer to decide if a
+ config is useful enough to submit (and therefore have to maintain).
+
+.. note::
+ Having ``.kunitconfig`` fragments in a parent and child directory is
+ iffy. There's discussion about adding an "import" statement in these
+ files to make it possible to have a top-level config run tests from all
+ child directories. But that would mean ``.kunitconfig`` files are no
+ longer just simple .config fragments.
+
+ One alternative would be to have kunit tool recursively combine configs
+ automagically, but tests could theoretically depend on incompatible
+ options, so handling that would be tricky.
+
+Generating code coverage reports under UML
+------------------------------------------
+
+.. note::
+ TODO(brendanhiggins@google.com): There are various issues with UML and
+ versions of gcc 7 and up. You're likely to run into missing ``.gcda``
+ files or compile errors. We know one `faulty GCC commit
+ <https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/8c9434c2f9358b8b8bad2c1990edf10a21645f9d>`_
+ but not how we'd go about getting this fixed. The compile errors still
+ need some investigation.
+
+.. note::
+ TODO(brendanhiggins@google.com): for recent versions of Linux
+ (5.10-5.12, maybe earlier), there's a bug with gcov counters not being
+ flushed in UML. This translates to very low (<1%) reported coverage. This is
+ related to the above issue and can be worked around by replacing the
+ one call to ``uml_abort()`` (it's in ``os_dump_core()``) with a plain
+ ``exit()``.
+
+
+This is different from the "normal" way of getting coverage information that is
+documented in Documentation/dev-tools/gcov.rst.
+
+Instead of enabling ``CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y``, we can set these options:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y
+ CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y
+ CONFIG_GCOV=y
+
+
+Putting it together into a copy-pastable sequence of commands:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Append coverage options to the current config
+ $ echo -e "CONFIG_DEBUG_KERNEL=y\nCONFIG_DEBUG_INFO=y\nCONFIG_GCOV=y" >> .kunit/.kunitconfig
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run
+ # Extract the coverage information from the build dir (.kunit/)
+ $ lcov -t "my_kunit_tests" -o coverage.info -c -d .kunit/
+
+ # From here on, it's the same process as with CONFIG_GCOV_KERNEL=y
+ # E.g. can generate an HTML report in a tmp dir like so:
+ $ genhtml -o /tmp/coverage_html coverage.info
+
+
+If your installed version of gcc doesn't work, you can tweak the steps:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --make_options=CC=/usr/bin/gcc-6
+ $ lcov -t "my_kunit_tests" -o coverage.info -c -d .kunit/ --gcov-tool=/usr/bin/gcov-6
+
+
+Running tests manually
+======================
+
+Running tests without using ``kunit.py run`` is also an important use case.
+Currently it's your only option if you want to test on architectures other than
+UML.
+
+As running the tests under UML is fairly straightforward (configure and compile
+the kernel, run the ``./linux`` binary), this section will focus on testing
+non-UML architectures.
+
+
+Running built-in tests
+----------------------
+
+When setting tests to ``=y``, the tests will run as part of boot and print
+results to dmesg in TAP format. So you just need to add your tests to your
+``.config``, build and boot your kernel as normal.
+
+So if we compiled our kernel with:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ CONFIG_KUNIT=y
+ CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=y
+
+Then we'd see output like this in dmesg signaling the test ran and passed:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ TAP version 14
+ 1..1
+ # Subtest: example
+ 1..1
+ # example_simple_test: initializing
+ ok 1 - example_simple_test
+ ok 1 - example
+
+Running tests as modules
+------------------------
+
+Depending on the tests, you can build them as loadable modules.
+
+For example, we'd change the config options from before to
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ CONFIG_KUNIT=y
+ CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=m
+
+Then after booting into our kernel, we can run the test via
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ $ modprobe kunit-example-test
+
+This will then cause it to print TAP output to stdout.
+
+.. note::
+ The ``modprobe`` will *not* have a non-zero exit code if any test
+ failed (as of 5.13). But ``kunit.py parse`` would, see below.
+
+.. note::
+ You can set ``CONFIG_KUNIT=m`` as well, however, some features will not
+ work and thus some tests might break. Ideally tests would specify they
+ depend on ``KUNIT=y`` in their ``Kconfig``'s, but this is an edge case
+ most test authors won't think about.
+ As of 5.13, the only difference is that ``current->kunit_test`` will
+ not exist.
+
+Pretty-printing results
+-----------------------
+
+You can use ``kunit.py parse`` to parse dmesg for test output and print out
+results in the same familiar format that ``kunit.py run`` does.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ ./tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py parse /var/log/dmesg
+
+
+Retrieving per suite results
+----------------------------
+
+Regardless of how you're running your tests, you can enable
+``CONFIG_KUNIT_DEBUGFS`` to expose per-suite TAP-formatted results:
+
+.. code-block:: none
+
+ CONFIG_KUNIT=y
+ CONFIG_KUNIT_EXAMPLE_TEST=m
+ CONFIG_KUNIT_DEBUGFS=y
+
+The results for each suite will be exposed under
+``/sys/kernel/debug/kunit/<suite>/results``.
+So using our example config:
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ $ modprobe kunit-example-test > /dev/null
+ $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/example/results
+ ... <TAP output> ...
+
+ # After removing the module, the corresponding files will go away
+ $ modprobe -r kunit-example-test
+ $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/example/results
+ /sys/kernel/debug/kunit/example/results: No such file or directory
+
+Generating code coverage reports
+--------------------------------
+
+See Documentation/dev-tools/gcov.rst for details on how to do this.
+
+The only vaguely KUnit-specific advice here is that you probably want to build
+your tests as modules. That way you can isolate the coverage from tests from
+other code executed during boot, e.g.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ # Reset coverage counters before running the test.
+ $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/gcov/reset
+ $ modprobe kunit-example-test

+architectures on QEMU include:
+
+* i386
+* x86_64
+* arm
+* arm64
+* alpha
+* powerpc
+* riscv
+* s390
+* sparc
+
+In order to run KUnit tests on one of these architectures via QEMU with the
+KUnit wrapper, all you need to do is specify the flags ``--arch`` and
+``--cross_compile`` when invoking the KUnit Wrapper. For example, we could run
+the default KUnit tests on ARM in the following manner (assuming we have an ARM
+toolchain installed):
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+ tools/testing/kunit/kunit.py run --timeout=60 --jobs=12 --arch=arm --cross_compile=arm-linux-gnueabihf-
+
+Alternatively, if you want to run your tests on real hardware or in some other
+emulation environment, all you need to do is to take your kunitconfig, your
+Kconfig options for the tests you would like to run, and merge them into
+whatever config your are using for your platform. That's it!
For example, let's say you have the following kunitconfig:
