# tests/Kconfig menuconfig KERNEL_TESTS bool "Kernel subsystem tests" help You can build kernel subsystem specific tests. if KERNEL_TESTS config DEBUG_LOCKING_API_SELFTESTS bool "Locking API boot-time self-tests" depends on DEBUG_KERNEL help Say Y here if you want the kernel to run a short self-test during bootup. The self-test checks whether common types of locking bugs are detected by debugging mechanisms or not. (if you disable lock debugging then those bugs wont be detected of course.) The following locking APIs are covered: spinlocks, rwlocks, mutexes and rwsems. config RCU_TORTURE_TEST tristate "torture tests for RCU" depends on DEBUG_KERNEL default n help This option provides a kernel module that runs torture tests on the RCU infrastructure. The kernel module may be built after the fact on the running kernel to be tested, if desired. Say Y here if you want RCU torture tests to be built into the kernel. Say M if you want the RCU torture tests to build as a module. Say N if you are unsure. config RCU_TORTURE_TEST_RUNNABLE bool "torture tests for RCU runnable by default" depends on RCU_TORTURE_TEST = y default n help This option provides a way to build the RCU torture tests directly into the kernel without them starting up at boot time. You can use /proc/sys/kernel/rcutorture_runnable to manually override this setting. This /proc file is available only when the RCU torture tests have been built into the kernel. Say Y here if you want the RCU torture tests to start during boot (you probably don't). Say N here if you want the RCU torture tests to start only after being manually enabled via /proc. endif # KERNEL_TESTS
