21  * struct kunit_try_catch - provides a generic way to run code which might fail.
22  * @test: The test case that is currently being executed.
23  * @try_completion: Completion that the control thread waits on while test runs.
24  * @try_result: Contains any errno obtained while running test case.
25  * @try: The function, the test case, to attempt to run.
26  * @catch: The function called if @try bails out.
27  * @context: used to pass user data to the try and catch functions.
28  *
29  * kunit_try_catch provides a generic, architecture independent way to execute
30  * an arbitrary function of type kunit_try_catch_func_t which may bail out by
31  * calling kunit_try_catch_throw(). If kunit_try_catch_throw() is called, @try
32  * is stopped at the site of invocation and @catch is called.
33  *
34  * struct kunit_try_catch provides a generic interface for the functionality
35  * needed to implement kunit->abort() which in turn is needed for implementing
36  * assertions. Assertions allow stating a precondition for a test simplifying
37  * how test cases are written and presented.
38  *
39  * Assertions are like expectations, except they abort (call
40  * kunit_try_catch_throw()) when the specified condition is not met. This is
41  * useful when you look at a test case as a logical statement about some piece
42  * of code, where assertions are the premises for the test case, and the
43  * conclusion is a set of predicates, rather expectations, that must all be
44  * true. If your premises are violated, it does not makes sense to continue.
