KUNIT_ASSERT_GT(9)

📦 version 7.3.1, in nixpkgs unstable

💅 KUNIT_ASSERT_GT 💅

okay bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual ✨ — this is the page for KUNIT_ASSERT_GT, and yes it's giving "tiny macro, big feelings" energy. Let's get into it 🎀

🌸 NAME 🌸

KUNIT_ASSERT_GT — the assertion that @left is greater than @right. literally that's it, that's the vibe 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

KUNIT_ASSERT_GT (test , left , right );

no cap, that's the whole call 🫶

🦋 ARGUMENTS 🦋

  • test — the test context object. your main character, the one holding it all together 👑
  • left — an arbitrary expression that evaluates to a primitive C type. she's the left-hand side, she's got range 💅
  • right — an arbitrary expression that evaluates to a primitive C type. the right-hand side, the comparison partner, the other half of the equation 🍓

🔥 DESCRIPTION 🔥

So here's the tea ☕: this sets an assertion that the value left evaluates to is greater than the value right evaluates to. simple, iconic, no notes 🌈

It's the same as KUNIT_EXPECT_GT, except — and this is the important part, bestie, don't skim it — it causes an assertion failure (see KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE) when the assertion is not met. so like, EXPECT is the chill one who just takes notes, and ASSERT is the one who stops the whole test 😭💀

⭐ SEE ALSO ⭐

everything's connected, it's a whole ecosystem, iykyk 🧚

Kernel file ./include/kunit/test.h, plus:

💜 friendly reminder bestie: ASSERT means the test stops when it fails. that's the whole difference. don't come for me, come for the macro.

and that's the page!! mwah 💋 this one lives in ./include/kunit, and it's dated October 2026 — slay, see you in the next one, bye bestie 🦋💖🎀
