Split run.sh into separate scripts (setup.sh, run.sh, cleanup.sh) to
enable multi-device testing, and prepare for VFIO selftests
automatically detecting which devices to use for testing by storing
device metadata on the filesystem.
- setup.sh takes one or more BDFs as arguments and sets up each device.
Metadata about each device is stored on the filesystem in the
directory:
${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/vfio-selftests-devices
Within this directory is a directory for each BDF, and then files in
those directories that cleanup.sh uses to cleanup the device.
- run.sh runs a selftest by passing it the BDFs of all set up devices.
- cleanup.sh takes zero or more BDFs as arguments and cleans up each
device. If no BDFs are provided, it cleans up all devices.
This split enables multi-device testing by allowing multiple BDFs to be
set up and passed into tests:
For example:
$ tools/testing/selftests/vfio/scripts/setup.sh <BDF1> <BDF2>
$ tools/testing/selftests/vfio/scripts/setup.sh <BDF3>
$ tools/testing/selftests/vfio/scripts/run.sh echo
<BDF1> <BDF2> <BDF3>
$ tools/testing/selftests/vfio/scripts/cleanup.sh
In the future, VFIO selftests can automatically detect set up devices by
inspecting ${TMPDIR:-/tmp}/vfio-selftests-devices. This will avoid the
need for the run.sh script.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
