When KUNIT_EXPECT_EQ() or KUNIT_ASSERT_EQ() log a failure, they log the two values being compared, with numerical values logged in decimal. In some cases, decimal output is painful to consume, and hexadecimal output would be more helpful. For example, this is the case for tests I'm currently developing for the arm64 insn encoding/decoding code, where comparing two 32-bit instruction opcodes results in output such as: | # test_insn_add_shifted_reg: EXPECTATION FAILED at arch/arm64/lib/test_insn.c:2791 | Expected obj_insn == gen_insn, but | obj_insn == 2332164128 | gen_insn == 1258422304 To make this easier to consume, this patch logs the values in both decimal and hexadecimal: | # test_insn_add_shifted_reg: EXPECTATION FAILED at arch/arm64/lib/test_insn.c:2791 | Expected obj_insn == gen_insn, but | obj_insn == 2332164128 (0x8b020020) | gen_insn == 1258422304 (0x4b020020) As can be seen from the example, having hexadecimal makes it significantly easier for a human to spot which specific bits are incorrect.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
