This version 7 patch series replace direct error handling methods with ksft macros, which provide better reporting.Currently, when the tmpfs test runs, it does not display any output if it passes,and if it fails (particularly when not run as root),it simply exits without any warning or message.
This series of patch adds:
1. Add 'ksft_print_header()' and 'ksft_set_plan()' to structure test outputs more effectively.
2. skip if not run as root.
3. Replace direct error handling with 'ksft_test_result_*', macros for better reporting.
v6->v7: - Improve the handling of failure macros. v6 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241219152929.4005003-2-cvam0000@gmail.com/ v6 v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241219152929.4005003-3-cvam0000@gmail.com/
v5->v6: - Skip if not run as root. v5 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241112143056.565122-2-cvam0000@gmail.com/ v5 v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241112143056.565122-3-cvam0000@gmail.com/
v4->v5: - Remove unnecessary pass messages. - Remove unnecessary use of KSFT_SKIP. - Add appropriate use of ksft_exit_fail_msg. v4 v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/8db9feab-0600-440b-b4b2-042695a100b5@linuxfounda... v4 v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/63d5e3bb-9817-4a34-98fe-823a9cac7c16@linuxfounda...
v3->v4: - Start a patchset - Split patch into smaller patches to make it easy to review. Patch1 Replace 'ksft_test_result_skip' with 'KSFT_SKIP' during root run check. Patch2 Replace 'ksft_test_result_fail' with 'KSFT_SKIP' where fail does not make sense, or failure could be due to not unsupported APIs with appropriate warnings.
v3: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241028185756.111832-1-cvam0000@gmail.com/
v2->v3: - Remove extra ksft_set_plan() - Remove function for unshare() - Fix the comment style v2: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241026191621.2860376-1-cvam0000@gmail.com/
v1->v2: - Make the commit message more clear. v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20241024200228.1075840-1-cvam0000@gmail.com/T/#u
