[PATCH] lib/tests: util_macros: Drop the '.' from the KUnit suite name
From: Mark
Date: Mon Oct 12 2026 - 18:58:19 EST
The util_macros KUnit suite is named "util_macros.h". KUnit test names
are formed as "<suite>.<test>" and a '.' in the suite name makes them
ambiguous, which breaks every consumer that splits on it:
- kunit.filter_glob= splits on the first '.', so
kunit.filter_glob=util_macros.h is parsed as suite "util_macros" with
test glob "h" and matches nothing.
- kunit.py's --list_tests output parser only accepts "<suite>.<test>"
names with a single '.', so the suite's tests are dropped from the
list and the suite name line "util_macros.h" is mistaken for a test
called "h" in suite "util_macros".
- As a result kunit.py --run_isolated=suite boots a kernel with
kunit.filter_glob=util_macros, which runs nothing and reports an
error, while the suite's actual tests are never run.
Rename the suite to "util_macros" to match the other lib/tests suites.
