Public bug reported: Ftrace regression tests in tools/testing/selftests/ftrace are picking up regressions in 5.7+ - not sure if these are kernel regressions or bugs in ftrace selftests.
I'm seeing the following ftrace test regresions: 5.9-rc2 test failures with ARM64 in a 4GM VM + 8 CPUs Test 12, "Generic dynamic event - selective clear (compatibility)" Test 39, "Kprobe event with comm arguments" Test 40, "Kprobe event string type argument" Test 41, "Kprobe event symbol argument" Test 43, "Kprobe dynamic event with arguments" Test 44, "Kprobes event arguments with types" Test 45, "Kprobe event user-memory access" Test 47, "Kprobe dynamic event with function tracer" Test 48, "Kprobe dynamic event - probing module" Test 51, "Kretprobe dynamic event with arguments" 5.8.3, 5.7.17 test failures: Test 45, "Kprobe event user-memory access" Test 48, "Kprobe dynamic event - probing module" Test 51, "Kretprobe dynamic event with arguments" These tests were working fine when I tested with 5.4.60, 5.5.19, 5.6.19, so these are definite regressions Attached is a spreadsheet of the full set of test results ** Affects: linux Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown ** Affects: ubuntu-kernel-tests Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: High Status: New ** Affects: linux (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: High Status: New ** Attachment added: "LibreOffice spreadsheet" https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1893024/+attachment/5404692/+files/ftrace-test-failures.ods ** Changed in: linux (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => High ** Also affects: linux (Ubuntu Groovy) Importance: High Status: New ** Bug watch added: Linux Kernel Bug Tracker #209043 https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209043 ** Also affects: linux via https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=209043 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1893024 Title: failing ftrace self tests from 5.7+ onwards To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/1893024/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
