Ooops.

this looks useful regardless. Perhaps it should be moved into tools/testing/selftests/kselftest.h as ksft_ck_kernel_version() ?
Makes sense.
+static int check_timer_distribution(void) +{
- const char *errmsg;
- if (!check_kernel_version(6, 3)) {
return 0;ksft_test_result_skip("check signal distribution (old kernel)\n");
..
- ksft_test_result(!ctd_failed, "check signal distribution\n");
Perhaps
if (!ctd_failed) ksft_test_result_pass("check signal distribution\n"); else if (check_kernel_version(6, 3)) ksft_test_result_fail("check signal distribution\n"); else ksft_test_result_skip("check signal distribution (old kernel)\n");
makes more sense?
This way it can be used on the older kernels with bcb7ee79029d backported.
Indeed.
