dm_mst_test...ch_no_parent(9)
π dm_mst_test_retrieve_branch_no_parent(9) β or, "the branch lookup test that literally has no parent" π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual π this is a whole KUnit test function and it's giving "small but iconic," no cap.
β¨ NAME β¨
dm_mst_test_retrieve_branch_no_parent β the test that checks branch lookup actually needs a parent port π«Ά
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
void dm_mst_test_retrieve_branch_no_parent (struct kunit *test );
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
testβ the KUnit test context π« (yes queen, that's the whole argument, we love a low-maintenance signature)
π DESCRIPTION π
So here's the vibe check π₯: this test verifies that retrieve_branch_specific_data returns false when the MST output port has no parent branch device to query.
That's it, that's the whole plot π no parent device β function says false β test passes β we celebrate π
periodt.
