[PATCH 0/2] selftests/x86: AMX-related test improvements
From: Chang S. Bae
Date: Fri Apr 01 2022 - 18:18:53 EST
A couple of test updates are included:
* With this option [1,2], the kernel's altstack check becomes stringent.
The x86 sigaltstack test is ignorant about this. Adjust the test now.
This check was established [3] to ensure every AMX task's altstack is
sufficient (regardless of that option) [4].
* The AMX test wrongly fails on non-AMX machines. Fix the code to skip the
test instead.
The series is available in this repository:
