While test results is available via netlink from user space, sometimes it may be useful to be able to access the results from the kernel as well, for instance due to a crash. Make that possible via debugfs.

Has to be the first line of the file, did you run this through checkpatch?
Yes, the code has been subject to continuous integration which uses a version of my runchecks tool (https://lkml.org/lkml/2018/1/19/157) to ensure that it is not possible to "forget" to run checkpatch (or sparse, smatch doc.check for that sake)
Ironically though I fell victim to my own tooling here, as I postponed fixing the SPDX_LICENSE_TAG class of issues once that test appeared, while working on something else, and just forgot to re-enable it again..
+static int ktf_run_test_open(struct inode *inode, struct file *file) +{
- struct ktf_test *t;
- if (!try_module_get(THIS_MODULE))
return -EIO;This is an anti-pattern, and one guaranteed to not work properly. NEVER do this.
Sorry, I didn't know this, and the origin is probably my responsibility.
I know the feeling of never being able to get rid of bad examples because they keep getting copied..
The pattern seemed to be widely used the first time I saw it, and although somewhat awkward, it seemed to be the standard way then, but as you know, my Infiniband driver ( https://github.com/oracle/linux-uek/blob/uek4/qu7/drivers/infiniband/hw/sif/...) unfortunately never made it to the scrutiny of LKML, since the hardware project got cancelled. The -EIO return value was also copied from merged kernel code back then.
I notice the discussion and your response here: http://linux-kernel.2935.n7.nabble.com/debugfs-and-module-unloading-td865175... I assume that means that protection against module unload while a debugfs file is open is now safe.
On older kernels, having this code in place is far better than an unprotected debugfs entry/exit - I have tested it extensively in the past :-)
Back when I first used it, I had this cool set of polymorphic debugfs file code to list the set of active MRs, CQs, QPs, AHs etc that the whole infiniband driver, database and hardware teams loved so much that multiple users ended up using it in multiple windows from within watch for live observations of state changes, and often also running driver load/unloads for testing purposes.
I perfectly agree with you that reducing the hole for a race condition is generally a bad idea, but from the above mail thread it seems that's the only available choice for older kernels?
(I am asking because I still want to be able to support rather old kernels with the github version of KTF)
Anyway, great to know that a better solution now exists!
We'll fix the rest of the issues below as well for the next version..
Thanks! Knut

Never test the result of any debugfs call, you do not need to. Just call it and move on, your code flow should NEVER be different with, or without, a successful debugfs call.

Why not just recursivly remove the directory? That way you do not have to keep track of any individual files.
