    kselftest: alsa: Check for event generation when we write to controls · b1446bda
    Mark Brown authored
    Add some coverage of event generation to mixer-test. Rather than doing a
    separate set of writes designed to trigger events we add a step to the
    existing write_and_verify() which checks to see if the value we read back
    from non-volatile controls matches the value before writing and that an
    event is or isn't generated as appropriate. The "tests" for events then
    simply check that no spurious or missing events were detected. This avoids
    needing further logic to generate appropriate values for each control type
    and maximises coverage.
    
    When checking for events we use a timeout of 0. This relies on the kernel
    generating any event prior to returning to userspace when setting a control.
    That is currently the case and it is difficult to see it changing, if it
    does the test will need to be updated. Using a delay of 0 means that we
    don't slow things down unduly when checking for no event or when events
    fail to be generated.
    
    We don't check behaviour for volatile controls since we can't tell what
    the behaviour is supposed to be for any given control.
