Description

verify_dri_node reads /sys/kernel/debug/dri/*/name directly with no check that debugfs is mounted. On images where it isn't auto-mounted, this fails with AssertionError: cat: '/sys/kernel/debug/dri/*/name': No such file or directory even though hyperv_drm is loaded and working correctly (verify_connection_status, which checks the same driver via modetest instead of debugfs, passes on the same node).

Adds _ensure_debugfs_mounted, mirroring the existing pattern already used in microsoft/testsuites/hyperv/dynamic_memory.py, and calls it before the debugfs read in verify_dri_node.

Pull request overview

This PR fixes verify_dri_node failures on images where debugfs isn’t auto-mounted by ensuring debugfs is mounted before reading /sys/kernel/debug/dri/*/name.

Changes:

  • Add _ensure_debugfs_mounted() helper to mount debugfs when needed.
  • Call _ensure_debugfs_mounted() at the start of verify_dri_node to avoid missing-path failures.

lisa/microsoft/testsuites/display/drm.py:139

  • Mount.get_partition_info() only parses mount entries that look like /dev/<name> on <mountpoint> ... (see lisa/tools/mount.py), so it won’t report pseudo-filesystem mounts like debugfs on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs .... As a result, _is_debugfs_mounted() will always return False, causing an unnecessary (and retrying) mount attempt and potentially skipping the test even when debugfs is already mounted.
        def _is_debugfs_mounted() -> bool:
            return any(
                partition.type == FileSystem.debugfs.name
                for partition in mount_tool.get_partition_info(
                    mountpoint=debugfs_point

@pdostal thanks for fixing this, please take care of the CI check error.

./lisa/microsoft/testsuites/display/drm.py:136:64: BLK100 Black would make changes.

verify_dri_node reads /sys/kernel/debug/dri/*/name directly, but debugfs isn't guaranteed to be mounted on all images. A sibling test on the same node (verify_connection_status) passes fine via modetest, confirming hyperv_drm itself is loaded and working -- the failure is purely a missing debugfs mount, not an absent/broken driver.

Add _ensure_debugfs_mounted, mirroring the existing pattern in microsoft/testsuites/hyperv/dynamic_memory.py. It verifies the mounted fs type via get_partition_info() rather than just checking something is mounted at the path, and catches mount() failures into a SkippedException instead of letting an uncaught AssertionError fail the test.

lisa/microsoft/testsuites/display/drm.py:137

  • Major: _is_debugfs_mounted() relies on Mount.get_partition_info(mountpoint=...), but get_partition_info() only parses mount lines that start with /dev/... (see lisa/tools/mount.py regex), so it won’t detect debugfs on /sys/kernel/debug type debugfs .... This makes _is_debugfs_mounted() always return False, causing an unnecessary mount attempt and potentially skipping the test even when debugfs is already mounted. Consider parsing mount output for the mountpoint/type instead.
        def _is_debugfs_mounted() -> bool:
            return any(
                partition.type == FileSystem.debugfs.name
                for partition in mount_tool.get_partition_info(mountpoint=debugfs_point)
            )
