This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests: timers: rtcpie: skip test if default RTC device does not exist to the 5.13-stable tree which can be found at: http://www.kernel.org/git/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/stable-queue.git;a=summary The filename of the patch is: selftests-timers-rtcpie-skip-test-if-default-rtc-dev.patch and it can be found in the queue-5.13 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d214db908cbf48fdfa6ce206fdfb6a478b08e72c Author: Po-Hsu Lin <po-hsu.lin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Tue May 25 10:36:14 2021 +0800 selftests: timers: rtcpie: skip test if default RTC device does not exist [ Upstream commit 0d3e5a057992bdc66e4dca2ca50b77fa4a7bd90e ] This test will require /dev/rtc0, the default RTC device, or one specified by user to run. Since this default RTC is not guaranteed to exist on all of the devices, so check its existence first, otherwise skip this test with the kselftest skip code 4. Without this patch this test will fail like this on a s390x zVM: $ selftests: timers: rtcpie $ /dev/rtc0: No such file or directory not ok 1 selftests: timers: rtcpie # exit=22 With this patch: $ selftests: timers: rtcpie $ Default RTC /dev/rtc0 does not exist. Test Skipped! not ok 9 selftests: timers: rtcpie # SKIP Fixed up change log so "With this patch" text doesn't get dropped.
