Re: bpf selftest failed in 5.4.210 kernel

[RAJESH DASARI]

Hi,

Please find the test scenarios which I have tried.

Test 1:

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) :  v5.4.210
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.210
test_align test case execution status : Failure

Test 2:

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) : v5.4.210
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.209
test_align test case execution status : Failure

Test 3:

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) : v5.4.209
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.209
test_align test case execution status : Success

Test 4:

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) : ACPI: APEI: Better fix to
avoid spamming the console with old error logs ( Kernel compiled at
this commit  and system is booted with this change)
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.210 but reverted selftests/bpf: Fix
test_align verifier log patterns and selftests/bpf: Fix "dubious
pointer arithmetic" test. If I revert only the Fix "dubious pointer
arithmetic" test, the testcase still fails.
test_align test case execution status : Success

Test 5:

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) :  v5.4.210 but reverted
commit (bpf: Verifer, adjust_scalar_min_max_vals to always call
update_reg_bounds() )
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.210 but reverted selftests/bpf: Fix
test_align verifier log patterns and selftests/bpf: Fix "dubious
pointer arithmetic" test.
test_align test case execution status : Success

Test 6 :

Running system Kernel version (tag/commit) : bpf: Test_verifier, #70
error message updates for 32-bit right shift( Kernel compiled at this
commit  and system is booted with this change)
Kernel source code checkout : v5.4.209 or v5.4.210
test_align test case execution status : Failure

Thanks,
Rajesh Dasari.
