Kind reminder
Usama,
As I mentioned another TAP conversion patch from you patch if the following command gives you TAP, there is no need to convert.
make -C tools/testing/tmp2 run_tests make kselftest TARGETS=tmp2
kselftest framework lib.mk and runtests wrappers take care for TAP. The reason to take care of this at framework level is to avoid changes to individual tests. The wrapper keys off of KSFT_* codes returned from tests.
Please don't send TAP conversion patches like this one. The output from the commands will have duplicate messages. The reason tests return
make -C tools/testing/tmp2 run_tests make kselftest TARGETS=tmp2
The current series have several improvements which are beneficial in several ways. I think these improvements should be included. While conforming for TAP following improvements have been made:
*[PATCH 1/4] check_initial_reg_state* Removes manual counting of pass and fail tests Increase readability and maintainability of tests Print logs in standard format (without [RUN], [OK] tags)
*[PATCH 2/4] corrupt_xstate_header* Correct the skip, pass and fail return codes. Otherwise the test always return 0 Returns correct number of stats about passed/failed tests Print logs in standard format
*[PATCH 3/4] fsgsbase_restore* Add test skip support instead of returning success at skip time for the kselftest script to understand correct exit status Print details about errno if error occurs Increase readability and maintainability Print logs in standard format
*[PATCH 4/4 entry_from_vm86* Remove manual pass/fail tests counting Increase readability Print details about errno if error occurs Print logs in standard format
These improvements aren't evident from the description of patches as I thought converting to TAP achieves all this by default. But I can improve the patches description and send patch revision. Thoughts?
