Yeah. Thinking more about this, I agree. I think it came about this way because the kselftest_harness.h API (not TAP output) is different from the kselftest.h API (TAP output), and so the tests were written with what was available in kselftest_harness.h which has no "SKIP" idea. The series linked was mostly built to bring kselftest_harness.h into the TAP output universe, so the XFAIL -> SKIP mapping needs to be included as well. > Or if the entire test depends on the missing config then Bail out might > be appropriate. > > > [1] https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20200611224028.3275174-7-keescook@xxxxxxxxxxxx/ I will rework this series. -- Kees Cook
