Sure! In my case, I'm testing a distro production kernel,
where I can't control the CONFIG variable settings. In
this case, ideally I'd like the tests to return success
if no problems with ftrace were detected, even if some
of the tests could not be run due to missing modules
and programs. As you suggest above (unless I'm
misunderstanding), this could be accomplished by modifying
ftracetest itself. Would doing something like what is done
for UNSUPPORTED_RESULT (defaults to 0, but can be set to
1 via --fail-unsupported, such that ftracetest returns
1 if we encounter unsupported results) make sense for
the unresolved case too?
Thanks!
