<title>Convert 'alloc_obj' family to use the new default GFP_KERNEL argument</title>

<id>bf4afc53b77aeaa48b5409da5c8da6bb4eff7f43</id>
<content type='text'>
This was done entirely with mindless brute force, using

    git grep -l '\&lt;k[vmz]*alloc_objs*(.*, GFP_KERNEL)' |
        xargs sed -i 's/\(alloc_objs*(.*\), GFP_KERNEL)/\1)/'

to convert the new alloc_obj() users that had a simple GFP_KERNEL
argument to just drop that argument.

Note that due to the extreme simplicity of the scripting, any slightly
more complex cases spread over multiple lines would not be triggered:
they definitely exist, but this covers the vast bulk of the cases, and
the resulting diff is also then easier to check automatically.

For the same reason the 'flex' versions will be done as a separate
conversion.

<title>treewide: Replace kmalloc with kmalloc_obj for non-scalar types</title>

<id>69050f8d6d075dc01af7a5f2f550a8067510366f</id>
<content type='text'>
This is the result of running the Coccinelle script from
scripts/coccinelle/api/kmalloc_objs.cocci. The script is designed to
avoid scalar types (which need careful case-by-case checking), and
instead replace kmalloc-family calls that allocate struct or union
object instances:

Single allocations:	kmalloc(sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_obj(TYPE, ...)

Array allocations:	kmalloc_array(COUNT, sizeof(TYPE), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_objs(TYPE, COUNT, ...)

Flex array allocations:	kmalloc(struct_size(PTR, FAM, COUNT), ...)
are replaced with:	kmalloc_flex(*PTR, FAM, COUNT, ...)

(where TYPE may also be *VAR)

The resulting allocations no longer return "void *", instead returning
"TYPE *".

Introduce example_params_test_with_init_dynamic_arr(). This new
KUnit test demonstrates directly assigning a dynamic parameter
array, using the kunit_register_params_array() macro, to a
parameterized test context.

It highlights the use of param_init() and param_exit() for
initialization and exit of a parameterized test, and their
registration to the test case with KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_WITH_INIT().

<title>kunit: Add example parameterized test with shared resource management using the Resource API</title>

Add example_params_test_with_init() to illustrate how to manage
shared resources across a parameterized KUnit test. This example
showcases the use of the new param_init() function and its registration
to a test using the KUNIT_CASE_PARAM_WITH_INIT() macro.

Additionally, the test demonstrates how to directly pass a parameter array
to the parameterized test context via kunit_register_params_array()
and leveraging the Resource API for shared resource management.

A const pointer to the add_one() function is declared. This
pointer-to-function is passed to kunit_activate_static_stub() and
kunit_deactivate_static_stub() instead of passing add_one directly.

<title>kunit: Add speed attribute</title>

<id>02c2d0c2a84172c3c7ec0229c61db55d23dd4730</id>
<content type='text'>
Add speed attribute to the test attribute API. This attribute will allow
users to mark tests with a category of speed.

Currently the categories of speed proposed are: normal, slow, and very_slow
(outlined in enum kunit_speed). These are outlined in the enum kunit_speed.

The assumed default speed for tests is "normal". This indicates that the
test takes a relatively trivial amount of time (less than 1 second),
regardless of the machine it is running on. Any test slower than this could
be marked as "slow" or "very_slow".

Add the macro KUNIT_CASE_SLOW to set a test as slow, as this is likely a
common use of the attributes API.

Add an example of marking a slow test to kunit-example-test.c.
