The use of typecheck() in KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() and friends is causing more problems than I think it's worth. Things like enums need to have their values explicitly cast, and literals all need to be very precisely typed, else a large warning will be printed. While typechecking does have its uses, the additional overhead of having lots of needless casts -- combined with the awkward error messages which don't mention which types are involved -- makes tests less readable and more difficult to write. By removing the typecheck() call, the two arguments still need to be of compatible types, but don't need to be of exactly the same time, which seems a less confusing and more useful compromise.

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 Restructured Text 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.
