Subject: [PATCH v4 13/15] selftests/mm: move hwpoison setup into run_test() and silence modprobe output for memory-failure category
Date: Mon,  6 Apr 2026 14:49:32 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <8ef8640092004d143fe80e6fc32ea8d30a9080de.1775466330.git.sayalip@linux.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1775466329.git.sayalip@linux.ibm.com>

run_vmtests.sh contains special handling to ensure the hwpoison_inject
module is available for the memory-failure tests. This logic was
implemented outside of run_test(), making the setup category-specific
but managed globally.

Move the hwpoison_inject handling into run_test() and restrict it
to the memory-failure category so that:
1. the module is checked and loaded only when memory-failure tests run,
2. the test is skipped if the module or the debugfs interface
(/sys/kernel/debug/hwpoison/) is not available.
3. the module is unloaded after the test if it was loaded by the script.

This localizes category-specific setup and makes the test flow
consistent with other per-category preparations.

While updating this logic, fix the module availability check.
The script previously used:

	modprobe -R hwpoison_inject

The -R option prints the resolved module name to stdout, causing every
run to print:

	hwpoison_inject

in the test output, even when no action is required, introducing
unnecessary noise.

Replace this with:

	modprobe -n hwpoison_inject

which verifies that the module is loadable without producing output,
keeping the selftest logs clean and consistent.

Also, ensure that skipped tests do not override a previously recorded
failure. A skipped test currently sets exitcode to ksft_skip even if a
prior test has failed, which can mask failures in the final exit status.
Update the logic to only set exitcode to ksft_skip when no failure has
been recorded.
