KUNIT_ASSERT_LT(9)

💖 NAME 💖

Okay bestie, welcome to KUNIT_ASSERT_LT(9) from the Kernel API Manual — this page is all about an assertion that @left is less than @right. That's it. That's the vibe. 💅

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

The signature is literally:

KUNIT_ASSERT_LT (test , left , right );

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

• test — the test context object, fr fr.
• left — an arbitrary expression that evaluates to a primitive C type.
• right — an arbitrary expression that evaluates to a primitive C type.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

This sets an assertion that the value that left evaluates to is less than the value that right evaluates to. It's the same as KUNIT_EXPECT_LT, except that it causes an assertion failure when the assertion is not met (peep KUNIT_ASSERT_TRUE for that part). So yeah: KUNIT_EXPECT_LT is the chill one, and this one goes full main-character energy on a failed assertion. 💀✨
