So, this seems very weird but I just finished a bisection of a failure that showed up during the merge window with the DT kselftests on meson-gxl-s905x-libretech-cc (Libretech Le Potato) running an arm64 defconfig. Looking at the commit this seems like a very surprising false result but I verified that the commit before this one runs fine and reproduced the failure, the bisect does seem to converge well also so it appears like there's something going on. Does this ring any bells for anyone? The test is timed out by the kselftest wrapper: kselftest: Running tests in dt TAP version 13 1..1 # timeout set to 45 # selftests: dt: test_unprobed_devices.sh # TAP version 13 # not ok 1 selftests: dt: test_unprobed_devices.sh # TIMEOUT 45 seconds with no obvious effect on the system, a successful run takes less than 20 seconds so it shouldn't be that the timing is marginal. I'm guessing that reading the one of the files under /sys/devices hung. No other boards in my lab are affected and I'm not immediately seeing anything remarkable about this board.
