Hi Isabella,
I'm doing some tests here with my i915 KUnit patch series.
There's a problem with the way it is currently parsing the KTAP logs on IGT. It sounds that it is parsing the data only at the end, and not as they arrive. That's bad, as if something goes wrong, the previously reported data is still useful.
Also, when there's a crash, the IGT process is getting segmentation fault. So, the end result is that nothing is actually reported.
$ sudo ./build/tests/i915_selftest IGT-Version: 1.26-gbab20eb65 (x86_64) (Linux: 6.1.0-rc2-drm-990037e9984e+ x86_64) Segmentation fault (core dumped)
However, the logs are there (see enclosed). In this specific case, there was a GPU hang while running one of the tests on a real hardware, which is something that it is actually expected at development time.
Btw, if you want to test it, the patches I'm using are at: https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/series/110483/
The latest patch there is a workaround that fixes the issue. So, if you apply patches 1-7 only, skipping (or reverting) patch 8, you'll be able to reproduce the Kernel crash (which seems to be caused by the way KUnit is initialized).
Regards, Mauro
