[PATCH 4.14 074/229] selftests: timers: clocksource-switch: fix passing errors from child

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Tue Aug 23 2022 - 05:41:51 EST


From: Wolfram Sang <wsa+renesas@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 4d8f52ac5fa9eede7b7aa2f2d67c841d9eeb655f ]

The return value from system() is a waitpid-style integer. Do not return
it directly because with the implicit masking in exit() it will always
return 0. Access it with appropriate macros to really pass on errors.

Fixes: 7290ce1423c3 ("selftests/timers: Add clocksource-switch test from timetest suite")
