This is a note to let you know that I've just added the patch titled selftests/bpf: Do not use sign-file as testcase to the 6.4-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-bpf-do-not-use-sign-file-as-testcase.patch and it can be found in the queue-6.4 subdirectory. If you, or anyone else, feels it should not be added to the stable tree, please let <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> know about it. commit d55ec8be908a9c9fce45eb1ce26af32f202991ba Author: Alexey Gladkov <legion@xxxxxxxxxx> Date: Wed May 17 11:49:46 2023 +0200 selftests/bpf: Do not use sign-file as testcase [ Upstream commit f04a32b2c5b539e3c097cb5c7c1df12a8f4a0cf0 ] The sign-file utility (from scripts/) is used in prog_tests/verify_pkcs7_sig.c, but the utility should not be called as a test. Executing this utility produces the following error: selftests: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf: urandom_read ok 16 selftests: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf: urandom_read selftests: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf: sign-file not ok 17 selftests: /linux/tools/testing/selftests/bpf: sign-file # exit=2 Also, urandom_read is mistakenly used as a test. It does not lead to an error, but should be moved over to TEST_GEN_FILES as well. The empty TEST_CUSTOM_PROGS can then be removed.
