1#
2# Config file for ktest.pl
3#
4# Note, all paths must be absolute
5#
6
7# Options set in the beginning of the file are considered to be
8# default options. These options can be overriden by test specific
9# options, with the following exceptions:
10#
11#  LOG_FILE
12#  CLEAR_LOG
13#  POWEROFF_ON_SUCCESS
14#  REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS
15#
16# Test specific options are set after the label:
17#
18# TEST_START
19#
20# The options after a TEST_START label are specific to that test.
21# Each TEST_START label will set up a new test. If you want to
22# perform a test more than once, you can add the ITERATE label
23# to it followed by the number of times you want that test
24# to iterate. If the ITERATE is left off, the test will only
25# be performed once.
26#
27# TEST_START ITERATE 10
28#
29# You can skip a test by adding SKIP (before or after the ITERATE
30# and number)
31#
32# TEST_START SKIP
33#
34# TEST_START SKIP ITERATE 10
35#
36# TEST_START ITERATE 10 SKIP
37#
38# The SKIP label causes the options and the test itself to be ignored.
39# This is useful to set up several different tests in one config file, and
40# only enabling the ones you want to use for a current test run.
41#
42# You can add default options anywhere in the file as well
43# with the DEFAULTS tag. This allows you to have default options
44# after the test options to keep the test options at the top
45# of the file. You can even place the DEFAULTS tag between
46# test cases (but not in the middle of a single test case)
47#
48# TEST_START
49# MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-test1
50#
51# DEFAULTS
52# MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-default
53#
54# TEST_START ITERATE 10
55#
56# The above will run the first test with MIN_CONFIG set to
57# /home/test/config-test-1. Then 10 tests will be executed
58# with MIN_CONFIG with /home/test/config-default.
59#
60# You can also disable defaults with the SKIP option
61#
62# DEFAULTS SKIP
63# MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-use-sometimes
64#
65# DEFAULTS
66# MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-most-times
67#
68# The above will ignore the first MIN_CONFIG. If you want to
69# use the first MIN_CONFIG, remove the SKIP from the first
70# DEFAULTS tag and add it to the second. Be careful, options
71# may only be declared once per test or default. If you have
72# the same option name under the same test or as default
73# ktest will fail to execute, and no tests will run.
74#
75# DEFAULTS OVERRIDE
76#
77# Options defined in the DEFAULTS section can not be duplicated
78# even if they are defined in two different DEFAULT sections.
79# This is done to catch mistakes where an option is added but
80# the previous option was forgotten about and not commented.
81#
82# The OVERRIDE keyword can be added to a section to allow this
83# section to override other DEFAULT sections values that have
84# been defined previously. It will only override options that
85# have been defined before its use. Options defined later
86# in a non override section will still error. The same option
87# can not be defined in the same section even if that section
88# is marked OVERRIDE.
89#
90#
91#
92# Both TEST_START and DEFAULTS sections can also have the IF keyword
93# The value after the IF must evaluate into a 0 or non 0 positive
94# integer, and can use the config variables (explained below).
95#
96# DEFAULTS IF ${IS_X86_32}
97#
98# The above will process the DEFAULTS section if the config
99# variable IS_X86_32 evaluates to a non zero positive integer
100# otherwise if it evaluates to zero, it will act the same
101# as if the SKIP keyword was used.
102#
103# The ELSE keyword can be used directly after a section with
104# a IF statement.
105#
106# TEST_START IF ${RUN_NET_TESTS}
107# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-network
108#
109# ELSE
110#
111# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-normal
112#
113#
114# The ELSE keyword can also contain an IF statement to allow multiple
115# if then else sections. But all the sections must be either
116# DEFAULT or TEST_START, they can not be a mixture.
117#
118# TEST_START IF ${RUN_NET_TESTS}
119# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-network
120#
121# ELSE IF ${RUN_DISK_TESTS}
122# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-tests
123#
124# ELSE IF ${RUN_CPU_TESTS}
125# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-cpu
126#
127# ELSE
128# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-network
129#
130# The if statement may also have comparisons that will and for
131# == and !=, strings may be used for both sides.
132#
133# BOX_TYPE := x86_32
134#
135# DEFAULTS IF ${BOX_TYPE} == x86_32
136# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-32
137# ELSE
138# BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:${CONFIG_DIR}/config-64
139#
140# The DEFINED keyword can be used by the IF statements too.
141# It returns true if the given config variable or option has been defined
142# or false otherwise.
143#
144#
145# DEFAULTS IF DEFINED USE_CC
146# CC := ${USE_CC}
147# ELSE
148# CC := gcc
149#
150#
151# As well as NOT DEFINED.
152#
153# DEFAULTS IF NOT DEFINED MAKE_CMD
154# MAKE_CMD := make ARCH=x86
155#
156#
157# And/or ops (&&,||) may also be used to make complex conditionals.
158#
159# TEST_START IF (DEFINED ALL_TESTS || ${MYTEST} == boottest) && ${MACHINE} == gandalf
160#
161# Notice the use of parentheses. Without any parentheses the above would be
162# processed the same as:
163#
164# TEST_START IF DEFINED ALL_TESTS || (${MYTEST} == boottest && ${MACHINE} == gandalf)
165#
166#
167#
168# INCLUDE file
169#
170# The INCLUDE keyword may be used in DEFAULT sections. This will
171# read another config file and process that file as well. The included
172# file can include other files, add new test cases or default
173# statements. Config variables will be passed to these files and changes
174# to config variables will be seen by top level config files. Including
175# a file is processed just like the contents of the file was cut and pasted
176# into the top level file, except, that include files that end with
177# TEST_START sections will have that section ended at the end of
178# the include file. That is, an included file is included followed
179# by another DEFAULT keyword.
180#
181# Unlike other files referenced in this config, the file path does not need
182# to be absolute. If the file does not start with '/', then the directory
183# that the current config file was located in is used. If no config by the
184# given name is found there, then the current directory is searched.
185#
186# INCLUDE myfile
187# DEFAULT
188#
189# is the same as:
190#
191# INCLUDE myfile
192#
193# Note, if the include file does not contain a full path, the file is
194# searched first by the location of the original include file, and then
195# by the location that ktest.pl was executed in.
196#
197
198#### Config variables ####
199#
200# This config file can also contain "config variables".
201# These are assigned with ":=" instead of the ktest option
202# assigment "=".
203#
204# The difference between ktest options and config variables
205# is that config variables can be used multiple times,
206# where each instance will override the previous instance.
207# And that they only live at time of processing this config.
208#
209# The advantage to config variables are that they can be used
210# by any option or any other config variables to define thing
211# that you may use over and over again in the options.
212#
213# For example:
214#
215# USER      := root
216# TARGET    := mybox
217# TEST_CASE := ssh ${USER}@${TARGET} /path/to/my/test
218#
219# TEST_START
220# MIN_CONFIG = config1
221# TEST = ${TEST_CASE}
222#
223# TEST_START
224# MIN_CONFIG = config2
225# TEST = ${TEST_CASE}
226#
227# TEST_CASE := ssh ${USER}@${TARGET} /path/to/my/test2
228#
229# TEST_START
230# MIN_CONFIG = config1
231# TEST = ${TEST_CASE}
232#
233# TEST_START
234# MIN_CONFIG = config2
235# TEST = ${TEST_CASE}
236#
237# TEST_DIR := /home/me/test
238#
239# BUILD_DIR = ${TEST_DIR}/linux.git
240# OUTPUT_DIR = ${TEST_DIR}/test
241#
242# Note, the config variables are evaluated immediately, thus
243# updating TARGET after TEST_CASE has been assigned does nothing
244# to TEST_CASE.
245#
246# As shown in the example, to evaluate a config variable, you
247# use the ${X} convention. Simple $X will not work.
248#
249# If the config variable does not exist, the ${X} will not
250# be evaluated. Thus:
251#
252# MAKE_CMD = PATH=/mypath:${PATH} make
253#
254# If PATH is not a config variable, then the ${PATH} in
255# the MAKE_CMD option will be evaluated by the shell when
256# the MAKE_CMD option is passed into shell processing.
257
258#### Using options in other options ####
259#
260# Options that are defined in the config file may also be used
261# by other options. All options are evaulated at time of
262# use (except that config variables are evaluated at config
263# processing time).
264#
265# If an ktest option is used within another option, instead of
266# typing it again in that option you can simply use the option
267# just like you can config variables.
268#
269# MACHINE = mybox
270#
271# TEST = ssh root@${MACHINE} /path/to/test
272#
273# The option will be used per test case. Thus:
274#
275# TEST_TYPE = test
276# TEST = ssh root@{MACHINE}
277#
278# TEST_START
279# MACHINE = box1
280#
281# TEST_START
282# MACHINE = box2
283#
284# For both test cases, MACHINE will be evaluated at the time
285# of the test case. The first test will run ssh root@box1
286# and the second will run ssh root@box2.
287
288#### Mandatory Default Options ####
289
290# These options must be in the default section, although most
291# may be overridden by test options.
292
293# The machine hostname that you will test
294#MACHINE = target
295
296# The box is expected to have ssh on normal bootup, provide the user
297#  (most likely root, since you need privileged operations)
298#SSH_USER = root
299
300# The directory that contains the Linux source code
301#BUILD_DIR = /home/test/linux.git
302
303# The directory that the objects will be built
304# (can not be same as BUILD_DIR)
305#OUTPUT_DIR = /home/test/build/target
306
307# The location of the compiled file to copy to the target
308# (relative to OUTPUT_DIR)
309#BUILD_TARGET = arch/x86/boot/bzImage
310
311# The place to put your image on the test machine
312#TARGET_IMAGE = /boot/vmlinuz-test
313
314# A script or command to reboot the box
315#
316# Here is a digital loggers power switch example
317#POWER_CYCLE = wget --no-proxy -O /dev/null -q  --auth-no-challenge 'http://admin:admin@power/outlet?5=CCL'
318#
319# Here is an example to reboot a virtual box on the current host
320# with the name "Guest".
321#POWER_CYCLE = virsh destroy Guest; sleep 5; virsh start Guest
322
323# The script or command that reads the console
324#
325#  If you use ttywatch server, something like the following would work.
326#CONSOLE = nc -d localhost 3001
327#
328# For a virtual machine with guest name "Guest".
329#CONSOLE =  virsh console Guest
330
331# Signal to send to kill console.
332# ktest.pl will create a child process to monitor the console.
333# When the console is finished, ktest will kill the child process
334# with this signal.
335# (default INT)
336#CLOSE_CONSOLE_SIGNAL = HUP
337
338# Required version ending to differentiate the test
339# from other linux builds on the system.
340#LOCALVERSION = -test
341
342# For REBOOT_TYPE = grub2, you must specify where the grub.cfg
343# file is. This is the file that is searched to find the menu
344# option to boot to with GRUB_REBOOT
345#GRUB_FILE = /boot/grub2/grub.cfg
346
347# The tool for REBOOT_TYPE = grub2 to set the next reboot kernel
348# to boot into (one shot mode).
349# (default grub2_reboot)
350#GRUB_REBOOT = grub2_reboot
351
352# The grub title name for the test kernel to boot
353# (Only mandatory if REBOOT_TYPE = grub or grub2)
354#
355# Note, ktest.pl will not update the grub menu.lst, you need to
356# manually add an option for the test. ktest.pl will search
357# the grub menu.lst for this option to find what kernel to
358# reboot into.
359#
360# For example, if in the /boot/grub/menu.lst the test kernel title has:
361# title Test Kernel
362# kernel vmlinuz-test
363#
364# For grub2, a search of top level "menuentry"s are done. No
365# submenu is searched. The menu is found by searching for the
366# contents of GRUB_MENU in the line that starts with "menuentry".
367# You may want to include the quotes around the option. For example:
368# for: menuentry 'Test Kernel'
369# do a: GRUB_MENU = 'Test Kernel'
370# For customizing, add your entry in /etc/grub.d/40_custom.
371#
372#GRUB_MENU = Test Kernel
373
374# For REBOOT_TYPE = syslinux, the name of the syslinux executable
375# (on the target) to use to set up the next reboot to boot the
376# test kernel.
377# (default extlinux)
378#SYSLINUX = syslinux
379
380# For REBOOT_TYPE = syslinux, the path that is passed to to the
381# syslinux command where syslinux is installed.
382# (default /boot/extlinux)
383#SYSLINUX_PATH = /boot/syslinux
384
385# For REBOOT_TYPE = syslinux, the syslinux label that references the
386# test kernel in the syslinux config file.
387# (default undefined)
388#SYSLINUX_LABEL = "test-kernel"
389
390# A script to reboot the target into the test kernel
391# This and SWITCH_TO_TEST are about the same, except
392# SWITCH_TO_TEST is run even for REBOOT_TYPE = grub.
393# This may be left undefined.

922#   Note, the build test will look for warnings, if a warning occurred
923#     in a file that a commit touches, the build will fail, unless

925#
926#   IGNORE_WARNINGS can be used to disable the failure of patchcheck

947# For TEST_TYPE = bisect
948#
949#  You can specify a git bisect if the BUILD_DIR is a git repository.
950#  The MIN_CONFIG will be used for all builds of the bisect. The build type
951#  used for bisecting is oldconfig.
952#
953#  The option BUILD_TYPE will be ignored.
954#
955#  BISECT_TYPE is the type of test to perform:
956#	build	- bad fails to build
957#	boot	- bad builds but fails to boot
958#	test	- bad boots but fails a test
959#
960# BISECT_GOOD is the commit (SHA1) to label as good (accepts all git good commit types)
961# BISECT_BAD is the commit to label as bad (accepts all git bad commit types)
962#
963# The above three options are required for a bisect operation.
964#
965# BISECT_REPLAY = /path/to/replay/file (optional, default undefined)
966#
967#   If an operation failed in the bisect that was not expected to
968#   fail. Then the test ends. The state of the BUILD_DIR will be
969#   left off at where the failure occurred. You can examine the
970#   reason for the failure, and perhaps even find a git commit
971#   that would work to continue with. You can run:
972#
973#   git bisect log > /path/to/replay/file
974#
975#   The adding:
976#
977#    BISECT_REPLAY= /path/to/replay/file
978#
979#   And running the test again. The test will perform the initial
980#    git bisect start, git bisect good, and git bisect bad, and
981#    then it will run git bisect replay on this file, before
982#    continuing with the bisect.
983#
984# BISECT_START = commit (optional, default undefined)
985#
986#   As with BISECT_REPLAY, if the test failed on a commit that
987#   just happen to have a bad commit in the middle of the bisect,
988#   and you need to skip it. If BISECT_START is defined, it
989#   will checkout that commit after doing the initial git bisect start,
990#   git bisect good, git bisect bad, and running the git bisect replay
991#   if the BISECT_REPLAY is set.
992#
993# BISECT_SKIP = 1 (optional, default 0)
994#
995#   If BISECT_TYPE is set to test but the build fails, ktest will
996#   simply fail the test and end their. You could use BISECT_REPLAY
997#   and BISECT_START to resume after you found a new starting point,
998#   or you could set BISECT_SKIP to 1. If BISECT_SKIP is set to 1,
999#   when something other than the BISECT_TYPE fails, ktest.pl will
1000#   run "git bisect skip" and try again.
1001#
1002# BISECT_FILES = <path> (optional, default undefined)
1003#
1004#   To just run the git bisect on a specific path, set BISECT_FILES.
1005#   For example:
1006#
1007#     BISECT_FILES = arch/x86 kernel/time
1008#
1009#   Will run the bisect with "git bisect start -- arch/x86 kernel/time"
1010#
1011# BISECT_REVERSE = 1 (optional, default 0)
1012#
1013#   In those strange instances where it was broken forever
1014#   and you are trying to find where it started to work!
1015#   Set BISECT_GOOD to the commit that was last known to fail
1016#   Set BISECT_BAD to the commit that is known to start working.
1017#   With BISECT_REVERSE = 1, The test will consider failures as
1018#   good, and success as bad.
1019#
1020# BISECT_MANUAL = 1 (optional, default 0)
1021#
1022#   In case there's a problem with automating the bisect for
1023#   whatever reason. (Can't reboot, want to inspect each iteration)
1024#   Doing a BISECT_MANUAL will have the test wait for you to
1025#   tell it if the test passed or failed after each iteration.
1026#   This is basicall the same as running git bisect yourself
1027#   but ktest will rebuild and install the kernel for you.
1028#
1029# BISECT_CHECK = 1 (optional, default 0)
1030#
1031#   Just to be sure the good is good and bad is bad, setting
1032#   BISECT_CHECK to 1 will start the bisect by first checking
1033#   out BISECT_BAD and makes sure it fails, then it will check
1034#   out BISECT_GOOD and makes sure it succeeds before starting
1035#   the bisect (it works for BISECT_REVERSE too).
1036#
1037#   You can limit the test to just check BISECT_GOOD or
1038#   BISECT_BAD with BISECT_CHECK = good or
1039#   BISECT_CHECK = bad, respectively.
1040#
1041# BISECT_TRIES = 5 (optional, default 1)
1042#
1043#   For those cases that it takes several tries to hit a bug,
1044#   the BISECT_TRIES is useful. It is the number of times the
1045#   test is ran before it says the kernel is good. The first failure
1046#   will stop trying and mark the current SHA1 as bad.
1047#
1048#   Note, as with all race bugs, there's no guarantee that if
1049#   it succeeds, it is really a good bisect. But it helps in case
1050#   the bug is some what reliable.
1051#
1052#   You can set BISECT_TRIES to zero, and all tests will be considered
1053#   good, unless you also set BISECT_MANUAL.
1054#
1055# BISECT_RET_GOOD = 0 (optional, default undefined)
1056#
1057#   In case the specificed test returns something other than just
1058#   0 for good, and non-zero for bad, you can override 0 being
1059#   good by defining BISECT_RET_GOOD.
1060#
1061# BISECT_RET_BAD = 1 (optional, default undefined)
1062#
1063#   In case the specificed test returns something other than just
1064#   0 for good, and non-zero for bad, you can override non-zero being
1065#   bad by defining BISECT_RET_BAD.
1066#
1067# BISECT_RET_ABORT = 255 (optional, default undefined)
1068#
1069#   If you need to abort the bisect if the test discovers something
1070#   that was wrong, you can define BISECT_RET_ABORT to be the error
1071#   code returned by the test in order to abort the bisect.
1072#
1073# BISECT_RET_SKIP = 2 (optional, default undefined)
1074#
1075#   If the test detects that the current commit is neither good
1076#   nor bad, but something else happened (another bug detected)
1077#   you can specify BISECT_RET_SKIP to an error code that the
1078#   test returns when it should skip the current commit.
1079#
1080# BISECT_RET_DEFAULT = good (optional, default undefined)
1081#
1082#   You can override the default of what to do when the above
1083#   options are not hit. This may be one of, "good", "bad",
1084#   "abort" or "skip" (without the quotes).
1085#
1086#   Note, if you do not define any of the previous BISECT_RET_*
1087#   and define BISECT_RET_DEFAULT, all bisects results will do
1088#   what the BISECT_RET_DEFAULT has.
1089#
1090#
1091# Example:
1092#   TEST_START
1093#   TEST_TYPE = bisect
1094#   BISECT_GOOD = v2.6.36
1095#   BISECT_BAD = b5153163ed580e00c67bdfecb02b2e3843817b3e
1096#   BISECT_TYPE = build
1097#   MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-bisect
1098#
1099#
1100#
1101# For TEST_TYPE = config_bisect
1102#
1103#  In those cases that you have two different configs. One of them
1104#  work, the other does not, and you do not know what config causes
1105#  the problem.
1106#  The TEST_TYPE config_bisect will bisect the bad config looking for
1107#  what config causes the failure.
1108#
1109#  The way it works is this:
1110#
1111#   You can specify a good config with CONFIG_BISECT_GOOD, otherwise it
1112#   will use the MIN_CONFIG, and if that's not specified, it will use
1113#   the config that comes with "make defconfig".
1114#
1115#   It runs both the good and bad configs through a make oldconfig to
1116#   make sure that they are set up for the kernel that is checked out.
1117#
1118#   It then reads the configs that are set, as well as the ones that are
1119#   not set for both the good and bad configs, and then compares them.
1120#   It will set half of the good configs within the bad config (note,
1121#   "set" means to make the bad config match the good config, a config
1122#   in the good config that is off, will be turned off in the bad
1123#   config. That is considered a "set").
1124#
1125#   It tests this new config and if it works, it becomes the new good
1126#   config, otherwise it becomes the new bad config. It continues this
1127#   process until there's only one config left and it will report that
1128#   config.
1129#
1130#   The "bad config" can also be a config that is needed to boot but was
1131#   disabled because it depended on something that wasn't set.
1132#
1133#   During this process, it saves the current good and bad configs in
1134#   ${TMP_DIR}/good_config and ${TMP_DIR}/bad_config respectively.
1135#   If you stop the test, you can copy them to a new location to
1136#   reuse them again.
1137#
1138#   Although the MIN_CONFIG may be the config it starts with, the
1139#   MIN_CONFIG is ignored.
1140#
1141#  The option BUILD_TYPE will be ignored.
1142#
1143#  CONFIG_BISECT_TYPE is the type of test to perform:
1144#	build	- bad fails to build
1145#	boot	- bad builds but fails to boot
1146#	test	- bad boots but fails a test
1147#
1148#  CONFIG_BISECT is the config that failed to boot
1149#
1150#  If BISECT_MANUAL is set, it will pause between iterations.
1151#  This is useful to use just ktest.pl just for the config bisect.
1152#  If you set it to build, it will run the bisect and you can
1153#  control what happens in between iterations. It will ask you if
1154#  the test succeeded or not and continue the config bisect.
1155#
1156# CONFIG_BISECT_GOOD (optional)
1157#  If you have a good config to start with, then you
1158#  can specify it with CONFIG_BISECT_GOOD. Otherwise
1159#  the MIN_CONFIG is the base, if MIN_CONFIG is not set
1160#  It will build a config with "make defconfig"
1161#
1162# CONFIG_BISECT_CHECK (optional)
1163#  Set this to 1 if you want to confirm that the config ktest
1164#  generates (the bad config with the min config) is still bad.
1165#  It may be that the min config fixes what broke the bad config
1166#  and the test will not return a result.
1167#  Set it to "good" to test only the good config and set it
1168#  to "bad" to only test the bad config.
1169#
1170# Example:
1171#   TEST_START
1172#   TEST_TYPE = config_bisect
1173#   CONFIG_BISECT_TYPE = build
1174#   CONFIG_BISECT = /home/test/config-bad
1175#   MIN_CONFIG = /home/test/config-min
1176#   BISECT_MANUAL = 1
1177#
1178#
1179#
1180# For TEST_TYPE = make_min_config
1181#
1182#  After doing a make localyesconfig, your kernel configuration may
1183#  not be the most useful minimum configuration. Having a true minimum
1184#  config that you can use against other configs is very useful if
1185#  someone else has a config that breaks on your code. By only forcing
1186#  those configurations that are truly required to boot your machine
1187#  will give you less of a chance that one of your set configurations
1188#  will make the bug go away. This will give you a better chance to
1189#  be able to reproduce the reported bug matching the broken config.
1190#
1191#  Note, this does take some time, and may require you to run the
1192#  test over night, or perhaps over the weekend. But it also allows
1193#  you to interrupt it, and gives you the current minimum config
1194#  that was found till that time.
1195#
1196#  Note, this test automatically assumes a BUILD_TYPE of oldconfig
1197#  and its test type acts like boot.
1198#  TODO: add a test version that makes the config do more than just
1199#   boot, like having network access.
1200#
1201#  To save time, the test does not just grab any option and test
1202#  it. The Kconfig files are examined to determine the dependencies
1203#  of the configs. If a config is chosen that depends on another
1204#  config, that config will be checked first. By checking the
1205#  parents first, we can eliminate whole groups of configs that
1206#  may have been enabled.
1207#
1208#  For example, if a USB device config is chosen and depends on CONFIG_USB,
1209#  the CONFIG_USB will be tested before the device. If CONFIG_USB is
1210#  found not to be needed, it, as well as all configs that depend on
1211#  it, will be disabled and removed from the current min_config.
1212#
1213#  OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG is the path and filename of the file that will
1214#   be created from the MIN_CONFIG. If you interrupt the test, set
1215#   this file as your new min config, and use it to continue the test.
1216#   This file does not need to exist on start of test.
1217#   This file is not created until a config is found that can be removed.
1218#   If this file exists, you will be prompted if you want to use it
1219#   as the min_config (overriding MIN_CONFIG) if START_MIN_CONFIG
1220#   is not defined.
1221#   (required field)
1222#
1223#  START_MIN_CONFIG is the config to use to start the test with.
1224#   you can set this as the same OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG, but if you do
1225#   the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG file must exist.
1226#   (default MIN_CONFIG)
1227#
1228#  IGNORE_CONFIG is used to specify a config file that has configs that
1229#   you already know must be set. Configs are written here that have
1230#   been tested and proved to be required. It is best to define this
1231#   file if you intend on interrupting the test and running it where
1232#   it left off. New configs that it finds will be written to this file
1233#   and will not be tested again in later runs.
1234#   (optional)
1235#
1236#  MIN_CONFIG_TYPE can be either 'boot' or 'test'. With 'boot' it will
1237#   test if the created config can just boot the machine. If this is
1238#   set to 'test', then the TEST option must be defined and the created
1239#   config will not only boot the target, but also make sure that the
1240#   config lets the test succeed. This is useful to make sure the final
1241#   config that is generated allows network activity (ssh).
1242#   (optional)
1243#
1244#  USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG set this to 1 if you do not want to be prompted
1245#   about using the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG as the MIN_CONFIG as the starting
1246#   point. Set it to 0 if you want to always just use the given MIN_CONFIG.
1247#   If it is not defined, it will prompt you to pick which config
1248#   to start with (MIN_CONFIG or OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG).
1249#
1250# Example:
1251#
1252#  TEST_TYPE = make_min_config
1253#  OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG = /path/to/config-new-min
1254#  START_MIN_CONFIG = /path/to/config-min
1255#  IGNORE_CONFIG = /path/to/config-tested
1256#  MIN_CONFIG_TYPE = test
1257#  TEST = ssh ${USER}@${MACHINE} echo hi
1258#
1259#
1260#
1261#
1262# For TEST_TYPE = make_warnings_file
1263#
1264# If you want the build to fail when a new warning is discovered
1265# you set the WARNINGS_FILE to point to a file of known warnings.
1266#
1267# The test "make_warnings_file" will let you create a new warnings
1268# file before you run other tests, like patchcheck.
1269#
1270# What this test does is to run just a build, you still need to
1271# specify BUILD_TYPE to tell the test what type of config to use.
1272# A BUILD_TYPE of nobuild will fail this test.
1273#
1274# The test will do the build and scan for all warnings. Any warning
1275# it discovers will be saved in the WARNINGS_FILE (required) option.
1276#
1277# It is recommended (but not necessary) to make sure BUILD_NOCLEAN is
1278# off, so that a full build is done (make mrproper is performed).
1279# That way, all warnings will be captured.
1280#
1281# Example:
1282#
1283#  TEST_TYPE = make_warnings_file
1284#  WARNINGS_FILE = ${OUTPUT_DIR}
1285#  BUILD_TYPE = useconfig:oldconfig
1286#  CHECKOUT = v3.8
1287#  BUILD_NOCLEAN = 0
