Kismet Kernel Test

Kismet kernel test epicenter.

Marketing Level Overview

The contents of this page are intended for engineers working on the Kismet Kernel_64 test team. Its purpose is to identify test case and test procedure work that needs to be completed. Engineers are expected to manage the contents of the page as work is assigned and completed.

Development Environment

Kismet Docker DESK_On_Docker_Project and WSL Readme Also make note of DDCI_Linux_Hints

Test Environment

Same as Development Environment. Need unreleased vfile and test-infrastructure (2.9.0-3) for now.

Build tests from clean environment.

cd ~/scm/Deos/products/kernel/kernel/branches/experimental/tests
svn up
./common/test-utils/regress reallyClean
./common/test-utils/regress -q kernel so qemu-aarch64 qemu-arm qemu-ppc qemu-x86_64 build

Experimental Test Configuration Using cdproc

Cdproc

This is highly experimental. Ask Ron before doing anything with this. In fact, don't even read this sentence without asking Ron. Arg, you can't follow instructions can you?

In a kismet maintainer environment:

1. Checkout, build, and locally install cdproc: https://deos.ddci.com/scm/Deos/products/desk/cdproc/branches/mainline
2. In kernel experimental tests/:
   1. svn mv databases/tpk918/ProcessDeveloper code/tpk918/etc
   2. Put the below tpk918.cd.xml file into code/tpk918/etc
   3. mkdir junk && cd junk
   4. acquire and copy a tpk918a.exe from somewhere into junk/
   5. tpk918_dir=absolute path to code/tpk918
   6. cdproc-makefile --desk-root={${tpk918_dir},/desk} --extra-components=tpk918 --extra-components=development-support qemu-arm
   7. make deosBoot.qemu
   8. startqemu &

tpk918.cd.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<componentDescriptor xmlns="http://www.ddci.com/cdoptions">
  <registry>tpk918_platreg</registry>
  <registry>platregd</registry>
  <!-- This is dubious.  standard-apps.cd.xml restricts gdb-server to only be in

Kernel_64

Summary of changes (See release notes for details):

• Removed some deprecated headers.
• Various functions removed e.g. setKernelAttributes to mapPhysicalAddress
• PE support removed.
• ELF symbol resolution changed (see UG Resolving Symbols).
• Added support for aarch64 and x86_64 target architectures.
• Added ELF image support of COPY relocations.
• Fix a bug that could cause mapViewOfPlatformResource() and mapViewOfKernelFileByHandle() (of file in MFS) to map incorrectly - investigate why test did not detect.
• Fixed PCR:14991 CPSR is not properly restored after an interrupt in kernel mode.
• Fixed PCR:15125 Kernel incorrectly handles offset relocation types used for variables declared thread_local.
• Fixed PCR:15126 Result of calling getLibrarySymbolAddress() on a variable declared thread_local is not correct.
• Fixed PCR:15355 Process with relocatable executable cannot have automounted owned filesystem.

Kernel 11.3.x

• Add support for the R_ARM_NONE relocation type.
• Updated resourceStatus to ensure the enum supports a full integer range.
• getLibrarySymbolAddress()'s support for libraryBreadthFirstKernel was removed and replaced with support for libraryBreadthFirstNext.

Kernel 11.2.x

• Python3_Port updates?
• Can tests be built?
• Classify tests into Categories.
• Category 1: Tests which can be built now.
• Category 2: Tests which require build-utils/test-utils updates.
• Category 3: Tests which require common test code updates.
• Category 4: Tests which require kernel updates.
