The patch titled Subject: selftests/mm: fix invocation of tests that are run via shell scripts has been added to the -mm mm-unstable branch. Its filename is selftests-mm-fix-invocation-of-tests-that-are-run-via-shell-scripts.patch This patch will shortly appear at https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/25-new.git/tree/patches/selftests-mm-fix-invocation-of-tests-that-are-run-via-shell-scripts.patch This patch will later appear in the mm-unstable branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm Before you just go and hit "reply", please: a) Consider who else should be cc'ed b) Prefer to cc a suitable mailing list as well c) Ideally: find the original patch on the mailing list and do a reply-to-all to that, adding suitable additional cc's *** Remember to use Documentation/process/submit-checklist.rst when testing your code *** The -mm tree is included into linux-next via the mm-everything branch at git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm and is updated there every 2-3 working days ------------------------------------------------------ From: John Hubbard <jhubbard@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: selftests/mm: fix invocation of tests that are run via shell scripts Date: Tue, 6 Jun 2023 00:16:30 -0700 We cannot depend upon git to reliably retain the executable bit on shell scripts, or so I was told several years ago while working on this same run_vmtests.sh script. And sure enough, things such as test_hmm.sh are lately failing to run, due to lacking execute permissions. Fix this by explicitly adding "bash" to each of the shell script invocations. Leave fixing the overall approach to another day.
