[PATCH] ipmi: ssif_bmc: Fix KUnit test link failure when KUNIT=m
From: Jian Zhang
Date: Tue Apr 07 2026 - 05:48:56 EST
Building with CONFIG_KUNIT=m and CONFIG_SSIF_IPMI_BMC_KUNIT_TEST=y
results in link errors such as:
undefined reference to `kunit_binary_assert_format'
undefined reference to `__kunit_do_failed_assertion'
This happens because the test code is built-in while the KUnit core
is built as a module, so the required KUnit symbols are not available
at link time.
Fix this by requiring KUNIT to be built-in when enabling
SSIF_IPMI_BMC_KUNIT_TEST.
