That could be trouble for auto test runners. It'd be great if there is
a standard on exit codes and a set of common output patterns that the
output parser can rely on. So that when new tests are added, the
output parsing will just work in various test infrastructures.

We are working on unifying this to follow the TAP13 standard.  See
recent patches on the kselftest mailing list for progress toward that
goal.

Glad to hear that! CC LKP team -- let's follow up on the new format.

[PATCH v2 0/4] kselftest: add TAP13 output format
