Hi all,
In the last Fall Reinette mentioned functional tests of resctrl would
be preferred over selftests that are based on performance measurement.
This series tries to address that shortcoming by adding some functional
tests for resctrl FS interface and another that checks MSRs match to
what is written through resctrl FS. The MSR test is only available for
Intel CPUs at the moment.
Why RFC?
The new functional selftest itself works, AFAIK. However, calling
ksft_test_result_skip() in cat.c if MSR reading is found to be
unavailable is problematic because of how kselftest harness is
architected. The kselftest.h header itself defines some variables, so
including it into different .c files results in duplicating the test
framework related variables (duplication of ksft_count matters in this
case).
The duplication problem could be worked around by creating a resctrl
selftest specific wrapper for ksft_test_result_skip() into
resctrl_tests.c so the accounting would occur in the "correct" .c file,
but perhaps that is considered hacky and the selftest framework/build
systems should be reworked to avoid duplicating variables?

2.39.5
Hi all,
This patch series addresses false positives in the generic mm selftests
and skips tests that cannot run correctly due to missing features or system
limitations.
---
v1: https://lore.kernel.org/all/20250616160632.35250-1-aboorvad@linux.ibm.com/
Changes in v2:
- Rebased onto the mm-new branch, top commit of the base is 3b4a8ad89f7e ("mm: add zblock allocator").
- Split some patches for clarity.
- Updated virtual_address_range test to support testing 4PB VA on PPC64.
- Added proper Fixes: tags.
- Included a patch to skip a failing userfaultfd test when unsupported,
instead of reporting a failure.
---
Please let us know if you have any further comments.
Thanks,
Aboorva

I had cause to look at the vfork() support for GCS and realised that we
don't have any direct test coverage, this series does so by adding
vfork() to nolibc and then using that in basic-gcs to provide some
simple vfork() coverage.
Signed-off-by: Mark Brown <broonie(a)kernel.org>

Changes in v2:
- Add replacement of ifdef with if defined() in nolibc since the code
doesn't reflect the coding style.
- Remove check for arch specific vfork().
- Link to v1: https://lore.kernel.org/r/20250609-arm64-gcs-vfork-exit-v1-0-baad0f085747@k…

Hello,
Please find the v10 AccECN protocol patch series, which covers the core
functionality of Accurate ECN, AccECN negotiation, AccECN TCP options,
and AccECN failure handling. The Accurate ECN draft can be found in
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/draft-ietf-tcpm-accurate-ecn-28
This patch series is part of the full AccECN patch series, which is available at
https://github.com/L4STeam/linux-net-next/commits/upstream_l4steam/
