d97b46a646 syscalls, x86: add __NR_kcmp syscall
While doing the checkpoint-restore in the user space one need to determine
whether various kernel objects (like mm_struct-s of file_struct-s) are
shared between tasks and restore this state.

The 2nd step can be solved by using appropriate CLONE_ flags and the
unshare syscall, while there's currently no ways for solving the 1st one.

One of the ways for checking whether two tasks share e.g.  mm_struct is to
provide some mm_struct ID of a task to its proc file, but showing such
info considered to be not that good for security reasons.

Thus after some debates we end up in conclusion that using that named
'comparison' syscall might be the best candidate.  So here is it --
__NR_kcmp.

It takes up to 5 arguments - the pids of the two tasks (which
characteristics should be compared), the comparison type and (in case of
comparison of files) two file descriptors.

Lookups for pids are done in the caller's PID namespace only.

At moment only x86 is supported and tested.

43de3316e9 ktest: Add USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to avoid prompt on make_min_config
If the file that OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG exists then ktest.pl will prompt the
user and ask them if the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG should be used as the
starting point for make_min_config instead of MIN_CONFIG.

This is usually the case, and to allow the user to do so, which is
helpful if the user is creating different min configs based on tests,
and they know one is a superset of another test, they can set
USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG to one, which will prevent kest.pl from prompting
to use the OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG and it will just use it.

If USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONIFG is set to zero, then ktest.pl will continue to
use MIN_CONFIG instead.

The default is that USE_OUTPUT_MIN_CONFIG is undefined.

ccc513b688 ktest: Add MIN_CONFIG_TYPE to allow making a minum .config that has network
Add a MIN_CONFIG_TYPE that can be set to 'test' or 'boot'. The default
is 'boot' which is what make_min_config has done previously: makes a
config file that is the minimum needed to boot the target.

But when MIN_CONFIG_TYPE is set to 'test', not only must the target
boot, but it must also successfully run the TEST. This allows the
creation of a config file that is the minimum to boot and also
perform ssh to the target, or anything else a developer wants.

683a3e6481 ktest: Fix kernelrevision with POST_BUILD
The PRE_BUILD and POST_BUILD options of ktest are added to allow the
user to add temporary patch to the system and remove it on builds. This
is sometimes use to take a change from another git branch and add it to
a series without the fix so that this series can be tested, when an
unrelated bug exists in the series.

The problem comes when a tagged commit is being used. For example, if
v3.2 is being tested, and we add a patch to it, the kernelrelease for
that commit will be 3.2.0+, but without the patch the version will be
3.2.0. This can cause problems when the kernelrelease is determined for
creating the /lib/modules directory. The kernel booting has the '+' but
the module directory will not, and the modules will be missing for that
boot, and may not allow the kernel to succeed.

The fix is to put the creation of the kernelrelease in the POST_BUILD
logic, before it applies the POST_BUILD operation. The POST_BUILD is
where the patch may be removed, removing the '+' from the kernelrelease.

The calculation of the kernelrelease will also stay in its current
location but will be ignored if it was already calculated previously.

759a3cc625 ktest: Fix reboot on success stopping all reboots
The change to let individual tests decide to reboot the machine on
success of the entire test also prevented errors from rebooting
when an error was detected.

The "no_reboot" variable was only cleared if the test had
reboot_on_success set. But the no_reboot variable also prevents the test
rebooting when an error was detected even when REBOOT_ON_ERROR was set.

Add a new "reboot_success" variable that is used to determine if the
test should reboot on success and not touch the no_reboot variable.

5158ba3ea7 ktest.pl: Fix combined usage of BISECT_REVERSE and BISECT_SKIP
When BISECT_REVERSE and BISECT_SKIP are used together with boot or test
testing, build failures are treated as boot or test failures and
'git bisect bad' is executed instead of 'git bisect skip'. This is because
the $ret value of -1 is treated as a build failure, but the $reverse_bisect
logic does not properly handle this.

Simple fix, only invert it if it is positive.

f0f57b2b14 mm: move hugepage test examples to tools/testing/selftests/vm
hugepage-mmap.c, hugepage-shm.c and map_hugetlb.c in Documentation/vm are
simple pass/fail tests, It's better to promote them to
tools/testing/selftests.

Thanks suggestion of Andrew Morton about this.  They all need firstly
setting up proper nr_hugepages and hugepage-mmap need to mount hugetlbfs.
So I add a shell script run_vmtests to do such work which will call the
three test programs and check the return value of them.

Changes to original code including below:
a. add run_vmtests script
b. return error when read_bytes mismatch with writed bytes.
c. coding style fixes: do not use assignment in if condition

648a182c61 ktest: Allow a test to override REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS
The option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS is global, and will have the machine reboot
the the box if all tests are successful. But a test may not want the
machine to reboot, and perhaps have the kernel it loaded be used to
install the next kernel. Or the last test may set up a kernel that the
user may want to look at. In this case, the user could have the global
option REBOOT_ON_SUCCESS be true, but if a test is defined to run at the
end, that test can override the global option and keep the kernel it
installed for the user to log in with.

The make_min_config does not take into account when the build fails,
resulting in a invalid MIN_CONFIG .config file. When the build fails,
it is ignored and the boot test is executed, using the previous built
kernel. The configs that should be tested are not tested and they may
be added or removed depending on the result of the last kernel that
succeeded to be built.

If the build fails, mark the current config as a failure and the
configs that were disabled may still be needed.

274343ad3e selftests: new very basic kernel selftests directory
Bring a new kernel selftests directory in tools/testing/selftests.  To
add a new selftest, create a subdirectory with the sources and a
makefile that creates a target named "run_test" then add the
subdirectory name to the TARGET var in tools/testing/selftests/Makefile
and tools/testing/selftests/run_tests script.

This can help centralizing and maintaining any useful selftest that
developers usually tend to let rust in peace on some random server.

be405f95f0 ktest: Add INGORE_ERRORS to ignore warnings in boot up
When testing a kernel that has warnings, ktest.pl will fail the test
when it sees the warning. If you need to test the the kernel and want
to ignore the errors that are produced, the option IGNORE_ERRORS has
been added. When IGNORE_ERRORS is set to something other than 0, it will
ignore call traces due to WARN_ON().

96f6a0df19 ktest: Still do reboot even for REBOOT_TYPE = script
The REBOOT_TYPE may be either grub or script, if it is script
it is expected that a REBOOT_SCRIPT is defined.

With the SWITCH_TO_TEST which is the complement of SWITCH_TO_GOOD,
which does basically the same thing as REBOOT_SCRIPT and but for
both grub and script, the REBOOT_SCRIPT does not need to be mandatory
anymore.

Do not require the REBOOT_SCRIPT and always run the reboot code
for both grub and script.

c2857cb4a8 ktest: Fix compare script to test if options are not documented
The compare script compare-ktest-sample.pl checks for options
that are defined in ktest.pl and not documented in samples.conf,
as well as samples in samples.conf that are not used in ktest.pl.

With the switch to the hash format to initialize the ktest variables
the compare script needs to be updated to handle the change.

9cc9e091ed ktest: Detect typos in option names
It becomes quite annoying when you go to run a test and then
realize that you typed an option name wrong, and the test starts
doing the default action and not what you expected it to do.

It is even more annoying when you wake up the next day after
running the test over night when you discover this.

By testing if all options specified in a config file are
used by either ktest or were used in one of the option's values
we can see if there are any dangling options that were not used.
In such a case, show the user the options that were not used
and ask them if they want to continue or not.

The option IGNORE_UNUSED was also added to allow the user to
override this feature.

b5f4aea687 ktest: Have all values be set by defaults
Currently the patchcheck, bisect, and config_bisect variables
are only able to be set per test. You can not set a default
value for them.

By letting default values be set, it makes some config files
a bit easier, and also makes it easier to find typos in the
option names.

bc7c580377 ktest: Add options SWITCH_TO_GOOD and SWITCH_TO_TEST
For machines that do no use grub, it may be needed to update an
external image (tftp) before doing a reboot into either the
test image or the known good image.

The option SWITCH_TO_GOOD is added, where if it is defined, the
command that is specified as its value will be executed before
doing a reboot into a known good image.

The option SWITCH_TO_TEST is added, where if it is defined, the
command that is specified as its value will be executed before
doing a reboot into the test image.

c5dacb88f0 ktest: Allow overriding bisect test results
When running the ktest git bisect test, if the BISECT_TYPE is "test",
the bisect is determined to be good or bad based off of the error
code of the test that is run. Currently, if the test returns 0,
it is considered a pass (good), a non-zero is considered a fail (bad).

But it has been requested to add more options, and also change
the meanings of the error codes of the test. For example, one may
want the test to detect if the commit is not good or bad,
(maybe the bisect came to a point where the code in question
does not exist). The test could report an error code that should tell
ktest to skip the commit.

Also, a test could detect that something is horribly wrong and the
biscet should just be aborted.

The new options:

 BISECT_RET_GOOD
 BISECT_RET_BAD
 BISECT_RET_SKIP
 BISECT_RET_ABORT
 BISECT_RET_DEFAULT

have been added. The first 4 take an integer value that will
represent if the test should be considered a pass, fail, neither
good nor bad, or abort respectively.

The BISECT_RET_DEFAULT will bo whatever is not defined by the
above codes. If only BISECT_RET_DEFAULT is defined, then all tests
will do the default.

the default test type, give the user an option to pick the test type
of either 'build, install, or boot'. Other options may be added later
