Context: When using a non-UML arch, kunit.py will boot the test kernel with options like these by default (this is x86_64): > mem=1G console=tty kunit_shutdown=halt console=ttyS0 kunit_shutdown=reboot The first three options are added unconditionally but are only intended for UML. 1. 'mem=1G' is redundant with the '-m 1024' that we hard-code into the qemu commandline. 2. We specify a 'console' for all tools/testing/kunit/qemu_configs/*.py already, so 'console=tty' gets overwritten. 3. For QEMU, we need to use 'reboot', and for UML we need to use 'halt'. If you switch them, kunit.py will hang until the --timeout expires. This patch: Having these duplicate options is a bit noisy. Switch so we only add UML-specific options for UML. I.e. we now get UML: 'mem=1G console=tty kunit_shutdown=halt' (unchanged) x86_64: 'console=ttyS0 kunit_shutdown=reboot' Side effect: you can't overwrite these options on UML w/ --kernel_arg. But you already couldn't for QEMU (console, kunit_shutdown), and why would you want to?

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.
