Jeff Layton: Using kdevops to test the Linux kernel NFS server
A few months ago, I transitioned from working on CephFS full time back to helping maintain the Linux kernel NFS server (aka knfsd). Chuck Lever (the primary maintainer) and I have a long-term goal to improve testing of incoming changes. In particular, weâd like to have some sort of continuous integration (CI) to help catch regressions.
After reviewing a few options, I settled on kdevops since itâs being adopted by several filesystem teams, and configuring and running it uses tools familiar to kernel developers. Itâs configured using the same Kconfig system that the Linux kernel uses, and provisioning and running machines is done using make targets.
Importantly, it is (supposedly) infrastructure-neutral. It can spin up virtual machines locally, using vagrant, or in several major cloud environments using terraform. In principle, it should be possible to run the same set of tests in either environment without any modifications.
