Hmm ok so you sent a v2 that was rejected [1], you were given feedback for a respin but the v1 has been taken + not updated?... That's really not how the process is supposed to work :/ Bit of a mess, Andrew - maybe best to keep the v1 then, and Hongfu - you can respin this as requested?

Why would we not want more information here? This argument doesn't hold any water, please use pkey_assert(). (BTW This reads like an AI generated sentence. We're fine with you using AI to assist with English for instance, but please make sure it's your own thoughts!) > > > > @@ -1775,7 +1776,7 @@ int main(void) > > > printf("running PKEY tests for unsupported CPU/OS\n"); > > > > > > ptr = mmap(NULL, size, PROT_NONE, MAP_ANONYMOUS|MAP_PRIVATE, > > > -1, 0); > > > - assert(ptr != (void *)-1); > > > + assert(ptr != MAP_FAILED); > > > > Probably best to convert to pkey_assert() at the same time? > > This is a pre-test initialization path that runs before the test > loop, so test_nr and iteration_nr (used in pkey_assert for diagnostic > output) are not yet set up at this point. > Would using plain assert() here be more appropriate? OK that's gross, please just replace it with a test failure kmsg_xxx() whatever it is, and a return EXIT_FAILURE; or something since you're in main(). > > Best regards, > Hongfu Cheers, Lorenzo
