I spend some time to make tools/testing/selftest/rcutorture run on PPC, here are some documention and fixes made while I was trying.
The scripts are able to run and get results on PPC, however please note there are some stalls even build errors that could be found by the tests currently. As I'm certainly not an expert of qemu or bash programming, there may be something I am missing in those patches. So tests and comments are welcome ;-) Regards, Boqun Boqun Feng (4): rcutorture/doc: Add a new way to create initrd using dracut rcutorture: Use vmlinux as the fallback kernel image rcutorture: Make -soundhw a x86 specific option rcutorture: Don't specify the cpu type of QEMU on PPC .../testing/selftests/rcutorture/bin/functions.sh | 13 ++++++------- .../selftests/rcutorture/bin/kvm-test-1-run.sh | 13 +++++++------ tools/testing/selftests/rcutorture/doc/initrd.txt | 22 ++++++++++++++++++++++ 3 files changed, 35 insertions(+), 13 deletions(-) -- 2.8.0
