Hi Linus,
Please pull this kselftest fixes update for Linux 6.18-rc6
Fixes event-filter-function.tc tracing test failure caused when a first run to sample events triggers kmem_cache_free which interferes with the rest of the test. Fix this calling sample_events twice to eliminate the kmem_cache_free related noise from the sampling.
diff is attached.
thanks, -- Shuah
