[PATCH bpf v3 2/2] selftests/bpf: cover UTF-8 trace_printk output
From: Yihan Ding
Date: Thu Apr 16 2026 - 08:07:36 EST
Extend trace_printk coverage to verify that UTF-8 literal text is
emitted successfully and that '%' parsing still rejects non-ASCII
bytes once format parsing starts.
Use an explicitly invalid format string for the negative case so the
ASCII-only parser expectation is visible from the test code itself.
