FWIW, qa_test_klp tests dump blocking processes' stacks at this place for more efficient information exchange between tester and developer. (klp_dump_blocking_processes() in https://github.com/lpechacek/qa_test_klp, file klp_tc_functions.sh)
... If I read the klp_dump_blocking_processes() code correctly and understand your comment, you are suggesting that reading (any) /sys/kernel/livepatch/*/transition would be simpler? No module parameter needed as only one should ever be transitioning at a given time?
Exactly.

Ahh, thanks for spotting that. checkpatch doesn't seem to complain about shell script indentation. Funny that shellcheck didn't either.

How about folding disable_lp functionality into module unload function? That would save extra invocation of disable_lp in test scripts.
Maybe this is just a stylistic thing, but I preferred the test scripts to be rather explicit about what they are doing. Instead of a do-it-all test_it() call, I liked how part_a(), part_b(), part_c() spelled things out.
In some instances, these functions were once combined, but I ran into a scenario where I needed only a part of that function because I was injecting an error. That experience lead me to keep the test "api" more RISC than CISC :)
Understood. Thanks for explanation.

This assumes functions.sh is in $CWD.
Good point. In the past, I've used something like:
SCRIPTDIR="$(readlink -f $(dirname $(type -p $0)))"
but I notice that not many selftests do anything special at all:
% grep '^. ' $(find . tools/testing/selftests/ -name '*.sh') ...
only the perf tests do, and they use ". $(dirname $0)/..." so I'll use that convention for these tests.
Indeed! I'm for following the crowd.
Thanks for putting the scripts together. Good job done!
