I did a headers install before I built and ran kselftest. btw tests should run on older kernels failing gracefully when feature isn't supported and/or enabled. So the expectation is for ftracetest to run cleanly skipping tests on older kernels. Would getting results for ftracetest on 4.11 with 4.11 ftracetest help you with debug? thanks, -- Shuah -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kselftest" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
