    selftests: mptcp: lib: format subtests results in TAP · c4192967
    Matthieu Baerts authored
    The current selftests infrastructure formats the results in TAP 13. This
    version doesn't support subtests and only the end result of each
    selftest is taken into account. It means that a single issue in a
    subtest of a selftest containing multiple subtests forces the whole
    selftest to be marked as failed. It also means that subtests results are
    not tracked by CIs executing selftests.
    
    MPTCP selftests run hundreds of various subtests. It is then important
    to track each of them and not one result per selftest.
    
    It is particularly interesting to do that when validating stable kernels
    with the last version of the test suite: tests might fail because a
    feature is not supported but the test didn't skip that part. In this
    case, if subtests are not tracked, the whole selftest will be marked as
    failed making the other subtests useless because their results are
    ignored.
    
    This patch adds some helpers in mptcp_lib.sh to be able to easily format
    subtests results in TAP in the different MPTCP selftests.
