Commit Message

Vitor Massaru Iha July 18, 2020, 12:50 a.m. UTC
KUnit test cases run on kthreads, and kthreads don't have an
adddress space (current->mm is NULL), but processes have mm.

The purpose of this patch is to allow to borrow mm to KUnit kthread
after userspace is brought up, because we know that there are processes
running, at least the process that loaded the module to borrow mm.

This allows, for example, tests such as user_copy_kunit, which uses
vm_mmap, which needs current->mm.

v2:
    * splitted patch in 3:
        - Allows to install and load modules in root filesystem;
        - Provides an userspace memory context when tests are compiled
          as module;
        - Convert test_user_copy to KUnit test;
    * added documentation;
    * added more explanation;
    * tested a pointer;
    * released mput();

Can you put these together in the same patch series as you had before?
When I asked you to split the patch up, I was just asking about that
specific patch within the series. I still think all the patches go
together.

As for this specific patch, I see one minor issue below; other than
that, this looks good to me, so:

I think the above documentation change belongs in the other related
patch where you introduce the --uml_rootfs_dir flag.
