[PATCH v1 0/3] kunit: Deferred action helpers

[David Gow]

This is v1 of the KUnit deferred actions API, which implements an
equivalent of devm_add_action[1] on top of KUnit managed resources. This
provides a simple way of scheduling a function to run when the test
terminates (whether successfully, or with an error). It's therefore very
useful for freeing resources, or otherwise cleaning up.

The notable changes since RFCv2[2] are:
- Got rid of the 'cancellation token' concept. It was overcomplicated,
  and we can add it back if we need to.
- kunit_add_action() therefore now returns 0 on success, and an error
  otherwise (like devm_add_action()). Though you may wish to use:
- Added kunit_add_action_or_reset(), which will call the deferred
  function if an error occurs. (See devm_add_action_or_reset()). This
  also returns an error on failure, which can be asserted safely.
- Got rid of the function pointer typedef. Personally, I liked it, but
  it's more typedef-y than most kernel code.
- Got rid of the 'internal_gfp' argument: all internal state is now
  allocated with GFP_KERNEL. The main KUnit resource API can be used
  instead if this doesn't work for your use-case.

I'd love to hear any further thoughts!

Cheers,
-- David
