I'm confused about why we need this patch, but some overall hints: Run "git log --oneline tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/mptcp_lib.sh" and make your subject line match the prefixes and overall style: $ git log --oneline tools/testing/selftests/net/mptcp/mptcp_lib.sh 5fbea888f8aa ("selftests: mptcp: add -m with ss in case of errors") 8c6bb011e188 ("selftests: mptcp: move stats info in case of errors to lib.sh") f58817c852e9 ("selftests: mptcp: lib: add time per subtests in TAP output") 20ccc7c5f7a3 ("selftests: mptcp: join: validate event numbers") 464b99e77b3d ("selftests: mptcp: lib: fix shellcheck errors") 1af3bc912eac ("selftests: mptcp: lib: use wait_local_port_listen helper") f265d3119a29 ("selftests: mptcp: lib: use setup/cleanup_ns helpers") 5597613fb3cf ("selftests: mptcp: lib: support flaky subtests") ... So your subject line should probably be: selftests: mptcp: lib: add colors to kselftest output One could argue for "selftests: mptcp:", but generally those touch multiple files.

Did you look at the implementation of mptcp_lib_print_ok()? It looks like this: mptcp_lib_print_ok() { mptcp_lib_print_color "${MPTCP_LIB_COLOR_GREEN}${*}" } So it looks like this should already be colored. If there's something broken here, I would take a look at 747ba8783a33 ("selftests: mptcp: print test results with colors") and cc the author when fixing it. > } > > mptcp_lib_pr_skip() { > @@ -97,7 +97,7 @@ mptcp_lib_pr_fail() { > title="IGNO" > cmt=" (flaky)" > else > - title="FAIL" > + title="\033[31mFAIL\033[0m" > fi > > mptcp_lib_print_err "[${title}]${cmt}${1:+ ${*}}" > -- > 2.48.1 >
