I am sorry I made a mistake in changelog. It should be ksft_test_result() instead of ksft_print_msg(). Changelog: Before exiting each test function(run_cmt/cat/mbm/mba_test()), test results (“ok”/”not ok”) are printed by ksft_test_result() and then temporary result files are cleaned by function cmt/cat/mbm/mba_test_cleanup(). However, before running ksft_test_result(), function cmt/cat/mbm/mba_test_cleanup() has been run in each test function as follows: cmt_resctrl_val() cat_perf_miss_val() mba_schemata_change() mbm_bw_change() Remove duplicate codes that clear each test result file. An example of MBM test: resctrl_tests.c 73 static void run_mbm_test(bool has_ben, char **benchmark_cmd, int span, 74 int cpu_no, char *bw_report) 75 { 87 res = mbm_bw_change(span, cpu_no, bw_report, benchmark_cmd); 88 ksft_test_result(!res, "MBM: bw change\n"); 89 if ((get_vendor() == ARCH_INTEL) && res) 90 ksft_print_msg("Intel MBM may be inaccurate when Sub-NUMA Clustering is enabled. Check BIOS configuration.\n"); 91 mbm_test_cleanup(); 92 } mbm_test.c 117 int mbm_bw_change(int span, int cpu_no, char *bw_report, char **benchmark_cmd) 118 { 138 ret = check_results(span); 142 mbm_test_cleanup(); 145 } 50 static int check_results(int span) 51 { 82 ret = show_bw_info(bw_imc, bw_resc, span); 87 } * Test results saved in file RESULT_FILE_NAME are printed by ksft_print_msg() in function show_bw_info().
