Since the files are created within cat_perf_miss_val() I think it would be better to perform the cleanup in the same function. So, keep this cleanup but remove the call from run_cat_test() instead. Similar for the cleanups below ... could you please keep them and instead remove the duplicate cleanup from run_cmt/mbm/mba_test() instead? When you do so, please be careful since it seems that there is (another!) bug where the cleanup is not done if the test fails. > diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/cmt_test.c b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/cmt_test.c > index 8968e36db99d..b3b17fb876f4 100644 > --- a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/cmt_test.c > +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/cmt_test.c > @@ -139,7 +139,5 @@ int cmt_resctrl_val(int cpu_no, int n, char **benchmark_cmd) > if (ret) > return ret; > > - cmt_test_cleanup(); > - > return 0; > } > diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mba_test.c b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mba_test.c > index 1a1bdb6180cf..93ffacb416df 100644 > --- a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mba_test.c > +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mba_test.c > @@ -166,7 +166,5 @@ int mba_schemata_change(int cpu_no, char *bw_report, char **benchmark_cmd) > if (ret) > return ret; > > - mba_test_cleanup(); > - > return 0; > } > diff --git a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mbm_test.c b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mbm_test.c > index 38a3b3ad1c76..a453db4c221f 100644 > --- a/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mbm_test.c > +++ b/tools/testing/selftests/resctrl/mbm_test.c > @@ -134,7 +134,5 @@ int mbm_bw_change(int span, int cpu_no, char *bw_report, char **benchmark_cmd) > if (ret) > return ret; > > - mbm_test_cleanup(); > - > return 0; > } Thank you Reinette
