So now where we go from here ! We will need help from platform folks to fix this unless its trivial. I did propose this on last thread (v2), wondering if it will be a better idea to restrict DEBUG_ARCH_PGTABLE_TEST among architectures which have fixed all pending issues whether build or run time. Though enabling all platforms where the test builds at the least might make more sense, we might have to just exclude arm32 and ia64 for now. Then run time problems can be fixed later platform by platform. Any thoughts ? BTW the test is known to run successfully on arm64, x86, ppc32 platforms. Gerald has been trying to get it working on s390. in the meantime., if there are other volunteers to test this on ppc64, sparc, riscv, mips, m68k etc platforms, it will be really helpful. - Anshuman
