Patch series "test_hash.c: refactor into KUnit", v3. We refactored the lib/test_hash.c file into KUnit as part of the student group LKCAMP [1] introductory hackathon for kernel development. This test was pointed to our group by Daniel Latypov [2], so its full conversion into a pure KUnit test was our goal in this patch series, but we ran into many problems relating to it not being split as unit tests, which complicated matters a bit, as the reasoning behind the original tests is quite cryptic for those unfamiliar with hash implementations. Some interesting developments we'd like to highlight are: - In patch 1/5 we noticed that there was an unused define directive that could be removed. - In patch 4/5 we noticed how stringhash and hash tests are all under the lib/test_hash.c file, which might cause some confusion, and we also broke those kernel config entries up. Overall KUnit developments have been made in the other patches in this series: In patches 2/5, 3/5 and 5/5 we refactored the lib/test_hash.c file so as to make it more compatible with the KUnit style, whilst preserving the original idea of the maintainer who designed it (i.e. George Spelvin), which might be undesirable for unit tests, but we assume it is enough for a first patch. This patch (of 5): Currently, there exist hash_32() and __hash_32() functions, which were introduced in a patch [1] targeting architecture specific optimizations. These functions can be overridden on a per-architecture basis to achieve such optimizations. They must set their corresponding define directive (HAVE_ARCH_HASH_32 and HAVE_ARCH__HASH_32, respectively) so that header files can deal with these overrides properly. As the supported 32-bit architectures that have their own hash function implementation (i.e. m68k, Microblaze, H8/300, pa-risc) have only been making use of the (more general) __hash_32() function (which only lacks a right shift operation when compared to the hash_32() function), remove the define directive corresponding to the arch-specific hash_32() implementation.

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.
