Maybe 256 can be a #define KUNIT_NAME_MAX_LEN? Or it could just be a
const char pointer to a literal pool? Are unit tests making up names at
runtime?

Can this variable be const? Or we expect test modules to adjust test_cases after
the fact?

Maybe we need to introduce another initcall level after
late_initcall_sync() for tests? I wonder if there will be tests that
need to run after all other initcalls have run, including late sync
initcalls.

Why? Just write out that it "Prints a warning level message".

This include gets removed later in the series, was it ever needed?

Bail out early here on first "fail" with return false?

But test_case isn't used?

Aha, so we don't need empty functions in the sysctl test.

Can kunit_init_test() also kunit_set_success() to true or false,
depending on what is desired as the initial state?

I find this odd, we have run_case_internal() that does two things, init
and run_case, while case_cleanup() does one thing, call module->exit().

Can we just inline all those functions in here so that it looks like
this:

int ret = 0;

if (module->init) {
ret = module->init(test);
if (ret) {
kunit_err(test, "failed to initialize: %d\n", ret);
kunit_set_success(&test, false);
}
}

if (!ret)
test_case->run_case(&test);

if (module->exit)
module->exit(&test);

return kunit_get_success(&test);

Then I don't have to read two more functions to figure out the flow of
running a test case.

Might make sense to assign this to 0 first and then pre-increment so
that test_case_count can't be 1 when there aren't any tests?

Can this be pushed into kunit_run_case() and have that function take a
test_case_count number? Maybe that would allow us to avoid storing
test_case->success entirely? Assuming that kunit_run_case() returned a
value like success or failure, then yes it would work.

unsigned int failed = 0;

for (test_case = module->test_cases; test_case->run_case; test_case++) {
failed |= kunit_run_case(module, test_case, ++test_case_count);

kunit_print_ok_not_ok(false,
!failed,
kunit_module_counter++,
module->name);
