Tests for drivers often require a struct device to pass to other functions. While it's possible to create these with root_device_register(), or to use something like a platform device, this is both a misuse of those APIs, and can be difficult to clean up after, for example, a failed assertion. Add some KUnit-specific functions for registering and unregistering a struct device: - kunit_device_register() - kunit_device_register_with_driver() - kunit_device_unregister() These helpers allocate a on a 'kunit' bus which will either probe the driver passed in (kunit_device_register_with_driver), or will create a stub driver (kunit_device_register) which is cleaned up on test shutdown. Devices are automatically unregistered on test shutdown, but can be manually unregistered earlier with kunit_device_unregister() in order to, for example, test device release code.

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.
