[PATCH] kunit:tool: Don't write to stdout when it should be disabled
From: David Gow
Date: Fri Jun 05 2026 - 22:05:57 EST
The kunit_parser module accepts a 'printer' object which is used as a
destination for all output. This is typically set to stdout, so that the
parsed results are visible, but can be set to a special 'null_printer' to
implement options where not all results are always printed.
However, there are a few places where use of stdout is hardcoded, notably
in handling crashed tests and in outputting the colour escape sequences.
Properly use the specified printer for all output. This is okay for the
colour handling (as this is already gated behind isatty() anyway), and also
for the crash handling, as cases where printer != stdout are separately
printed afterwards.
Fixes: 062a9dd9bad7 ("kunit: tool: Only print the summary")
