This patch can be found in Groovy and newer releases, and this test does not exist in Bionic and older releases. [Test] Tested on s390x / PowerPC, this will be marked as unsupported: $ sudo ./ftracetest test.d/kprobe/kprobe_args_user.tc === Ftrace unit tests === [1] Kprobe event user-memory access [UNSUPPORTED] # of passed: 0 # of failed: 0 # of unresolved: 0 # of untested: 0 # of unsupported: 1 # of xfailed: 0 # of undefined(test bug): 0 $ echo $? 0 [Where problems could occur] Changes limited to testing tool, should not impact real kernel functionality. With this patch and local workaround in autotest-client-tests removed we might see failures in s390x / PowerPC in the future.
