If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d050e3a06be9ec455b55c442119892191e60f66b Author: Fenghua Yu <fenghua.yu@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed Mar 17 02:22:40 2021 +0000 selftests/resctrl: Fix missing options "-n" and "-p" [ Upstream commit d7af3d0d515cbdf63b6c3398a3c15ecb1bc2bd38 ] resctrl test suite accepts command line arguments (like -b, -t, -n and -p) as documented in the help. But passing -n and -p throws an invalid option error. This happens because -n and -p are missing in the list of characters that getopt() recognizes as valid arguments. Hence, they are treated as invalid options. Fix this by adding them to the list of characters that getopt() recognizes as valid arguments. Please note that the main() function already has the logic to deal with the values passed as part of these arguments and hence no changes are needed there.
