Ideally we would check CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH instead of the arches directly: This would allow distros to "turn off" this particular set of selftests through the kernel configuration. Also, setting CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH=m determines whether supporting livepatch self-test modules (in lib/livepatch) will be built. Without it, these self-test scripts are useless. However, I didn't see that $(CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH) was set when invoking tools/testing/selftests/livepatch/Makefile. I don't know how tools/testing/selftests/vDSO/Makefile is using $(CONFIG_X86_32) but perhaps that isn't working either. Any suggestions? Should we modify the test scripts themselves to deal with a !CONFIG_TEST_LIVEPATCH environment? Thanks, -- Joe
